A display of artifacts featuring nine items recovered from the STS-107 tragedy that occurred Feb. 1, 2003, is shown in the old Headquarters Building at Kennedy Space Center. The powerful exhibit can now be viewed in the lobby of the Florida spaceport’s new Central Campus Building until June 10. The exhibit is part of the space shuttle Columbia national tour, which will make its way to all 10 NASA centers throughout the country.

Shown is a view of the seven-story, 200,000-square-foot Central Campus Headquarters (CCHQ) Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Jan. 11, 2022. The CCHQ is a modernized, energy efficient facility representative of Kennedy’s transformation to America’s premier multi-user spaceport. It opened in May 2019. Built in 1965, the former headquarters building was recently demolished. The area previously occupied by the 439,000 square-foot-facility will be utilized as greenspace.

A view of some of the work stations in the new headquarters building on April 3, 2019, at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The newly constructed facility anchors the multi-user spaceport’s Central Campus. More than 500 civil service and contractor employees will be based in the 200,000-square-foot building. The facility earned the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold designation. Features include LED lighting throughout, along with occupancy sensors to turn off unneeded lights; windows, screens and shades designed to maximize natural light; chilled beam HVAC technology reducing the need for ductwork, and more.

A newly installed electric vehicle (EV) charging station is in view near the Central Campus Headquarters Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Sept. 14, 2022. Part of a partnership between Kennedy and Florida Power & Light (FPL) to bring 23 EV charging stations to the spaceport, the ChargePoint CT4000, Level 2 chargers are capable of charging electric vehicles at a rate of 15-30 miles of range per hour. This partnership was set up under FPL’s EV program and provides a charging infrastructure that includes a simple way for businesses and employees to pay for usage.

ISS033-E-020288 (13 Nov. 2012) --- A nighttime view of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia is featured in this image photographed by an Expedition 33 crew member on the International Space Station. The population of Riyadh, the capital city of Saudi Arabia, has risen dramatically in the last half century, from 150,000 in 1960 to an estimated 5.4 million in 2012. The city appears as a brightly colored patchwork in this nighttime photograph. The brightest lights, apart from those on the old Riyadh Airbase at center (the new international airport is far outside the city and not shown here), follow the commercial districts along King Abdullah Road and King Fahd Branch Road. Many of the darker patches within the built area are city parks. University sectors stand out with different street and light patterns, as seen in the King Saud University campus which houses the Arabic Language Institute, and the Princess Nora Bint Abdul Rahman University which is the largest all-female university in the world. Highways and various ring roads also stand out in night imagery due to bright regular lighting. Lighted developments beyond the ring roads mark the growth of the city. Newer neighborhoods, set further from the city center, are recognizable by blue-gray lightning.
