Book an Orlando villa holiday and take a trip to the stars

Those planning a stay in an Orlando holiday villa this year could find themselves mixing with the stars.

One of Florida's biggest attractions, the Kennedy Space Centre, is the only place on earth where visitors can take a look around a NASA launch pad and find out firsthand what life is really like in space.

Whether you're into rockets or cutting edge scientific research, there should be something at the space centre that the rest of the world would shuttle to see.

For many tourists one of the highlights is getting to meet a professional astronaut and finding out what it's like having the most desirable career in the universe.

Each week a different space traveller holds daily seminars at the centre, where visitors can go along and take part in an open questions and answers session.

Other attractions that form part of the shuttle launch experience include a rocket garden, IMAX cinema screen, observation gantry and the US astronaut hall of fame.

With a packed programme of events for the coming year there is hopefully something for all the family to enjoy.

The International Space Centre boasts what are probably the best telescopes in the world, for some genuine US star spotting.
