Astronaut Training Experience (ATX)
Designed to immerse guests in the role of an astronaut, this two-day experience features state-of-the-art training equipment and simulators. Patricipants train in ANTIGRAVITY, walk on the surface of a VR MARS, land a capsule and drive a rover, and take off from Earth.
Once trained, they go to Mars on the MTV (Mars Transit Vehicle), a fully-realized interplanetary shuttle. Once they arrive, the airlock doors open into MARS BASE ONE, a complete facility with labs and scientific experiments.
Project was targeted at 5th graders with an eye to providing challenges to users of all ages. Developed in conjunction with NASA and JPL, the ATX features emerging technologies and promotes team-based and science-founded experiences. This project was a complete overhaul of an existing building on the Visitor Center Campus at Kennedy Space Center.
