Live presentations take place throughout the museum and auditorium.
StenniSphere was named Mississippi's Travel Attraction of the Year 2000 by the Mississippi Tourism Association. Nearly 250,000 visitors from around the world visit the space center each year. Tours to StenniSphere originate every 15 minutes from the Launch Pad tour stop at the Mississippi I-10 Welcome Center in Hancock County, just 45 miles east of New Orleans. On display nearby is a 30-foot tall replica of a Lunar Lander used as a trainer by Apollo astronauts. Visitors can take photos of their own feet beside the boot prints made in concrete at the base of the Lunar Lander exhibit by Apollo 13 astronaut Fred Haise.
