Summary

[edit]
Description CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - With its operational days behind, on June 1, 1967, the Mission Control Center became a stop on the public tour of NASA facilities offered through the Kennedy Space Center Visitor’s Center, now called the Visitor Complex. Tours of the facility continued until the mid-90s. The Mercury Mission Control Center in Florida played a key role in the United States' early spaceflight program. Located at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, the original part of the building was constructed between 1956 and 1958, with additions in 1959 and 1963. The facility officially was transferred to NASA on Dec. 26, 1963, and served as mission control during all the Project Mercury missions, as well as the first three flights of the Gemini Program, when it was renamed Mission Control Center. In 1999, much of the equipment and furnishings from the Flight Control Area were moved to the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex where they became part of the exhibit there. The building was demolished in spring 2010.
