Last Saturday I was invited to attend Kennedy Space Centers open house. Kennedy Space Center opens up several operational facilities so workers can bring in friends and family. It was definitely an incredible experience!

Space Shuttle Endeavour sits inside Orbiter Processing Facilily #2 as she is prepared for her final flight in February.

Good shots, but one over the limit: IMAGE POSTING RULES only allow 2 attachments by the OP per thread, OR 8 embedded (linked) images, OR a combination of both totaling 8 per thread. (Maximum 1024 pixels on any side.) You can always just post a link to more, though, or better yet, post a link to a gallery so we don't have to click on each image link.
Some exceptions are group threads, like "Show Me...", "Post your best...", equipment reviews, Tutorials, etc.
You may add a few additional photos if requested, but only in a reply to other member's post and request.
