  1. The #engine section of a #Delta II #rocket.
    The main engine is a #Rocketdyne #RS27A that burns kerosene and liquid oxygen.
    On either side of the center engine nozzle, the two yellow and white portions that seem covered in fabric with red openings are #vernier thrusters to maintain attitude control.

  5. The Kennedy Space Center Visitors Complex built the Atlantis #Museum, they built life-size replicas of the Space Shuttle External Tank and Solid #Rocket Boosters directly in front of the building which held #SpaceShuttle Atlantis.

    This #photograph was taken from below the #ExternalTank.

  9. A stitched composite image of #NASA’s #Space Shuttle #Atlantis’ crew cabin in the #AtlantisMuseum at Kennedy Space Center Visitor’s Complex.
    The #Orbiter’s name is painted below and slightly behind the windscreen. The forward reaction control system nozzles can be seen, as can the #APAS docking ring.

  12. After #NASA’s #Space #Shuttle was retired, the #Orbiter #Atlantis was given to the Kennedy Space Center Visitors Complex after it was cleaned and prepared for public display.
    #KSCVC decided to, using private-raised money, build a new, multi-level museum to hold Atlantis suspended as though it were in orbit.

  15. Today is the anniversary of the #Apollo11 Moon landing!
    At Kennedy #Space Center’s Visitor Complex, it’s possible to visit the #Apollo / Saturn V Center, where a #SaturnV #rocket is on display, with its stages separated.
    These are the 5 J-2 engines that powered the S-II stage that was the second stage on the Saturn V.
    They burned liquid hydrogen (#LH2) and liquid oxygen (#LOX). This high-energy combination of propellants made it much easier for the United States to build a successful #Moon mission, whereas the Soviets were forced to stick with hypergolic fuels or kerosene, making lunar missions impractical.

  19. After United Launch Alliance launched their final #Delta II #rocket for #NASA, the remaining #DeltaII was donated to the Kennedy #Space Center Visitors Complex for public display.
    #ULA painted a few significant logos from the vehicle’s career on the donated first stage, including the US flag, the Delta series logo (a Greek letter delta), stars surrounding the Delta to represent successful missions, the #ULA logo, and the #NASA #Meatball logo.
