Can you tell me which tour this was on? I have been to Nasa twice. The first time I took a short tour which was about an hour long, and the last time I was there I took a 4 hour tour which was freaking interesting as hell. I want to go back again next spring and would love to see something like what you saw up close and personal too. Do you know the name of the tour or the package?
