Shuttle Launch Experience

Location:  Titusville, FL

Client:  NASA Kennedy Space Center/

Delaware North Park Services,

Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex

Scope:  Concept through Production

Every visitor to NASA’s wishes they could experience what a real space launch feels like. Now, that dream is possible.

From interviews with 27 former Space Shuttle astronauts, BRC collected details on every sight, sound, sensation and emotion of a Shuttle launch. BRC then designed a multisensory thrill-ride that recreates that experience. Just like the major attractions in neighboring Orlando, this exciting experience uses special effects, a motion-base system, lighting, and state-of-the-art technologies.

Shuttle astronauts have called the attraction the most realistic flight simulation they have ever experienced. Guests call it “out of this world.”
