STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. - The StenniSphere visitor center at NASA's John C. Stennis Space Center opened a new exhibit today, a Kidz Zone attraction that offers young visitors an interactive look at space. The new area includes a feature that allows visitors a chance to perform simple tasks while wearing gloves similar to those used by astronauts; a puzzle that offers a chance for children to "build" the International Space Station; a standup cutout that gives children a chance to take a photo of themselves "wearing" a spacesuit; and a video screen presentation providing answers to commonly asked questions about space.
