The film thoughtfully considers whether there's life beyond our planet. An abundance of life certainly exists at Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge, the subject of the third new exhibit, which is free to all visitors. Included are simulations of various habitats at the refuge, including the continental shelf, beach, grasslands, salt marshes and lagoon. Displays describe native species, including loggerhead turtles, alligators, manatees, black mice and indigo snakes. Operated by Delaware North Parks Services of Spaceport Inc., the Visitor Complex features bus tours of the space center with up-close views of Space Shuttle launch facilities and International Space Station processing.
