I visited the Johnson Space Center in Houston a couple of times but never got to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
There's a story from AP this morning about the hard times facing NASA employees along Florida's Space Coast. With the end of the shuttle program, 7,000 people losing their jobs. It couldn't come at a worse time. Jobs are hard to find, these days. This will be devastating for a lot of hotels, motels, restaurants and other travel related industries I'm sure.
As always, however, bad news for some may be good news for others. For retired folks wanting to move to a warmer climate, this will be a great time to find a super deal on a house. There are a ton of homes on the market around the space center as employees try to move out to find work elsewhere.
