Using mesmerizing graphics, the space complex can show images that appear to visually leap off the larger-than-life LED screen. From space missions to attractions located inside the space venue, the display encapsulates NASA’s biggest roles in space exploration.
“The inspiring six-minute video sets the tone by featuring former President John F. Kennedy’s famous ‘We choose to go to the Moon’ speech as well as iconic artifacts guests will encounter during their visit, moments in history that changed space exploration forever, and glimpses into the future,” Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex said in a news release.
The complex new entrance sign will also be able to display emergency alerts, like inclement weather, to park guests along with advertising.
