It has been a childhood dream of mine to be an astronaut. This summer I want to visit the biggest and best space exploration museum in America. I am willing to fly anywhere within the country. I heard there is a good NASA museum in Florida, what is it called? Do you have any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

The National Air and Space Museum in Washington has the capsules from Friendship 7, Apollo 11, the SpaceShipOne that won the X-Prize a few years ago, and the prototype shuttle Enterprise, and a lunar rock sample that can be touched. There's a bunch of other neat airplanes as well.
KSC has a number of rockets from various eras in the space race, centered around a fully restored Saturn V. You can't go wrong with either of them.

I have been to the Kennedy and Johnson space centers and they are OK, but I wouldn't call them great, except that they are working space facilities. I have never been to the Smithsonian Air and Space museum, but it always gets rave reviews, so go to Washington D.C. and see the Air and Space museum!

Personally, I love the Smithsonian Air & Space Musuem in DC. I've been there 4 times. Also, it's free - like virtually all the museums in DC.
