Situated across the road from the Saturn V Center graze a number of Texas Longhorn cattle, which certainly came as a surprise (although perhaps it should not have been such a surprise: Across from Marshall Space Flight Center Building 4205, the Propulsion Research Development Laboratory, is a cow pasture).

The cattle are in the Western Heritage Pavilion, part of the Clear Creek Independent School District Agriculture Science Center Learning Laboratory, also known as the Longhorn Project. This project provides local high school students the opportunity to learn about animal husbandry, fruit and vegetable cultivation, soil research, and recycling technologies.
