Kennedy Space Center Rocket Garden, at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, Florida, USA. This rocket garden contains rockets that were intended for use, but put on display after their space programs were cancelled. The Kennedy Space Center Rocket Garden contains eight rockets, from the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs, as well as replicas of the manned spacecraft launched by these rockets. These space programs operated between 1959 and 1975. The rockets seen here are the Mercury-Atlas, Mercury-Redstone, and Thor rockets.
