Astronaut Jerry Carr

Astronaut Jerry Carr is the astronaut of the day today at Kennedy Space Center. He is speaking at the auditorium which is the location for the Astronaut Encounter program. The Astronaut Encounter program is presented at 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 pm. The program is included with admission to the Center. Jerry Carr is also speaking at Lunch With an Astronaut which starts at noon. The lunch buffet and speech are in the ballroom under the Heroes and Legends building. The fee for Lunch With an Astronaut is approximately $30. Flight Director Ed and I, Capcom Ruth, have been to Lunch With an Astronaut a few times with various astronauts including Astronaut Carr. We have been to Astronaut Encounter several times going back to when it happened outside instead of inside the auditorium. Jerry will end today’s schedule by signing items on the top floor of the gift shop from 4:00-4:45. That will be our last stop at the Space Center today too.
