Apollo / Saturn V Center
The Apollo/Saturn V Center is a visitor facility in Brevard County, Florida focused on space exploration history. It features a real Saturn V rocket standing over 100 meters tall, along with displays of spacecraft, models, and original equipment from the Apollo program, plus a recreation of the historic launch control room.
The Saturn V rocket was used during the Apollo program in the 1960s and 1970s to carry astronauts to the moon and back. The center preserves this chapter of space exploration history and shows how thousands of people worked together to achieve these groundbreaking missions.
The center's name comes from the Apollo program and the Saturn V rocket that made moon travel possible. For visitors, the place represents a shared moment in history when nations competed to reach space, and it shows how teamwork and ambition shaped a generation.
The location is easily accessible by car with ample parking nearby. It's best to arrive early to avoid crowds, and plan for at least two to three hours to comfortably view all exhibits and watch the available films or presentations.
Visitors can touch an actual piece of moon rock brought back by Apollo astronauts during their missions. This rare chance to feel something that came from the lunar surface makes space exploration history tangible and leaves a lasting impression on many people.
