The
Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex has scheduled the groundbreaking ceremony
for its $100 million exhibit that will showcase the space shuttle Atlantis. The
event will be Wednesday, Jan. 18.
Eventually, the 65,000-square-foot exhibit will be a centerpiece of the Brevard
County attraction. It will spotlight the 30-year history of the space-shuttle
program and give guests an up-close look at the orbiter, which was retired last
year.
Scheduled speakers at the groundbreaking include Lt. Gov. Jennifer Carroll;
Chris Ferguson, former Atlantis commander; Bill Moore, chief operating officer
of the visitor complex; Janet Petro, deputy director of the Kennedy Space
Center; and Jeremy Jacobs, CEO of Delaware North Companies Parks & Resorts.
The ceremony begins at 11 a.m. and is open to that day’s guests of the Kennedy
Space Center Visitor Complex.
