About

Vice President Mike Pence got a first-hand look at the public-private partnerships at America's multi-user spaceport on Thursday, July 6, during a visit to NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Vice President started his visit at Shuttle Landing Facility, the former space shuttle landing strip now leased and operated by Space Florida. Speaking in the center's iconic Vehicle Assembly Building, Pence thanked employees for their commitment to America's continued leadership in the space frontier. He then embarked on a spaceport tour showcasing both NASA and commercial work that will soon lead to U.S.-based astronaut launches and eventual missions into deep space. The tour included a visit to the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building, where the Orion spacecraft is being prepped for its first integrated flight with the Space Launch System (SLS) in 2019.
