Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is going back in time for this year’s Holidays in Space event, which launches Friday, Dec. 13. The theme will be retro: the 1960s.

The Brevard County attraction promises 10,000 sparkling lights across the property, along with holiday decor and music; immersive, space-themed photo opportunities; and space trivia.

At 5 p.m. nightly during the event, which runs through Dec. 31, a short film exploring NASA’s missions past and present will be shown.

Holidays in Space is included in regular admission to the visitor complex. For more information, go to kennedyspacecenter.com.
