NASA Space Center wants to give the public a front row seat into the development of robotics, rovers, lunar landers and reduced gravity systems. The center offered a glimpse of the facility that will include two enclosed simulated cosmic terrains of the Moon and Mars, as well as modular surface labs and STEM learning centers.

An elevated exhibit hall over the two surfaces will offer the public immersive experiences to observe astronaut training first-hand while experiencing the future of space exploration as humans return to the Moon and eventually on to Mars.

For 30 years, Space Center Houston has chronicled the journey of human spaceflight while empowering and inspiring people to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Space Center Houston, the official visitor center of NASA Johnson Space Center, has welcomed more than 24 million guests.
