i used to go to the space camp as a kid. i haven't been since i was about 12, but it was amazing for a kid.

unless they've changed it quite a bit, it's really good. they have both the shuttle with boosters and exo tank and a saturn v full size models. they also have a saturn v broken down into sections and laying horizontal. plus 27 other rockets/missles on display.

there are a few 'simulator' rides, basically theme park rides. good for a little thrill.

inside they have several models of various space craft, most of which are hand on/climb in. they have an ISS area as well. plus all the history you can ask for.

i can't imagine what the new technology with tv/video has allowed them to add.

if your planning on going, i'd treat as a theme park day for a full day of activities/sight seeing. i'm not sure a 2 hour stop would do it justice.

Thanks for the info. I may have to do that in the near future. My son is in the Air Force at Keesler AFB in Biloxi but is going to be stationed at Tyndall AFB in Panama City. From what I can tell, the best way to get there still takes me down I-65 passing right by Huntsville. I'm sure we will be visiting him once we start seeing snow flakes here up north.
