Best of the Southwest
Rate This Article
Natural and historic wonders abound in the American Southwest, stretching from the shores of Lake Tahoe to Galveston, Texas. There's something for everyone here, from the snowboarding enthusiast to the desert lover, and plenty to remind you of the area's rich Native American history and cowboy past.
#1: Space Center Houston, TX
If you're the parent of an aspiring astronaut, there's no place like Space Center Houston at Johnson Space Center, home of the U.S. Astronaut training program and Mission Control.
Enjoy cosmic experiences like riding a lunar rover at Kids Space Place or getting a glimpse of life on the International Space Station. A tour of the real Mission Control is a thrill for any space lover, big or small. After all, this is the place where the Apollo 13 crew directed their now infamous "Houston, we have a problem" call.
