NASA in Houston is smaller than Cape Kennedy in Florida. We took a tram ride around the complex and got to visit mission control where they supervise the space shuttle missions. They said that they had a humongous pool on site which the astronauts practice in since there isn't a way to practice weightless maneuvering here on earth. This is the closest they can get to weightlessness. It has a duplicate of the space station and satellites and shuttle all underwater. We need to go back and see the rest. We cut our visit short so we could go watch Voland baptize his family.
