You have stunning and professional photos there! It is especially amazing how you captured the shooting star. It looks indeed a thrilling experience you had.
I did not realize that people are allowed to take photos inside NASA. Most research facilities I know prohibit the same for what they call security and confidentiality matters.
Thank you, @macoolette! :)
Your initial thoughts were correct: you cannot simply take photos on NASA's property without a special pass (which many of my friends, pictured, had). I didn't have a pass (though I'd like to in the future), so was on a public beach in Port Canaveral.
Unless you mean my earlier photos from Kennedy Space Center? Those were in the visitor center, and they don't have rules about photos there, but it's just a museum complex, not a working facility.
Apparently I am confusing where the photos were taken. Yeah, the photos I was referring to are from the space center. It is good that they have visitor area where folks can explore around and bring home some memories. :)
Yes, it's a very popular tourist location! The parking lot is massive. :)
I can only imagine... 😊
