What does a rocket launch really feel like? Three, two, one, liftoff!

Young astronauts are able to crawl around in the International Space Station (ISS)! Buckle up and blast off – gently – to the moon on our Lunar Lander simulator. Dream of docking the command module to the ISS. Crawl into the rocket and picture being launched to the moon. This simulator is for children up to 54 inches tall. Must be accompanied by an adult.
