New coaster for NASA's Kennedy Space Center

[roomraider]

A weird one this but it appears NASA's Kennedy Space Center is building a coaster

Footers already in


Plenty of signage around that suggests it is indeed a coaster.

I do like it when 2 of my nerd passions combine.

Surely this has to be a vertical launched coaster from Intamin? It’s like it’s designed for a space theme!

The same site had plans for a 55,000-square foot building posted a few months ago, so it’s likely an indoor coaster. The codename was Project Aero or NBT (”Next Big Thing”) when it was first unveiled.

Could this perhaps be one of the 4 Intamin Multi Dimension coasters that are confirmed to be in the works then? We know about the projects at Chessington and Parc Asterix, and I feel like I'm forgetting a 3rd one we also already know of, but I might be making things up here

Ooooh, how geographically convenient for me.

And it's not *that* strange, they already have the space shuttle simulator and four different flying theaters with 4 different films. Also the NASA complex in Huntsville, Alabama has had an S&S space shot for +20 years
