KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- A U.S. Air Force Thunderbird F-16D aircraft streaks through the sky over NASA's Kennedy Space Center. The pilot is Major Tad Clark, who, after landing at the Shuttle Landing Facility, announced that Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex will host the inaugural World Space Expo from Nov. 3 to 11. The Expo, which will feature an aerial salute by the Thunderbirds on its opening weekend, will create one of the largest displays of space artifacts, hardware and personalities ever assembled in one location with the objective to inspire, educate and engage the public by highlighting the achievements and benefits of space exploration.
