Space Vehicle Mockup Facility

A stop on the JSC tram tour was one the Space Vehicle Mockup Facility in Building 9. We visited in 2008, when the Shuttle program was still underway and prior to the cancellation of Project Orion.

The Shuttle-related simulators, no longer needed, have since been awarded to museums.

Also see this Space Vehicle Mockup Facility fact sheet and this update regarding dispersing the Shuttle-related simulators to museums.
