    Got this from my Armchair Astronaut newsletter,

    Would like to go see this event

    KENNEDY SPACE CENTER VISITOR COMPLEX WELCOMES SPACE SHUTTLE ATLANTIS


    You're invited to be part of the once-in-a-lifetime Atlantis - Celebrate the Journey event, Friday, November 2, as Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex welcomes space shuttle Atlantis home. Atlantis is making its 10-mile rolling journey from the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) to the Visitor Complex atop the Orbiter Transportation System (OTS). The move will conclude at the new $100-million permanent home under construction for the orbiter. Its new home is set to open next summer.

    Highlight of this day-long event includes a three-hour stop at Exploration Park where guests have the opportunity for 360-degree photographs with Atlantis. Additional activities include a NASA celebration ceremony, interactive exhibits promoting the history and future of spaceflight, and displays of spaceflight hardware from past, current and future programs. Exhibitors scheduled to attend include NASA, The Boeing Company, Sierra Nevada Corporation, SpaceX and XCOR Aerospace.


    Posted on the offchance someone from here will be in Florida at the time :)
