The large building with the sloping roof houses the Atlantis exhibit and is visible from miles away.

Construction of the Boosters is moving along. The cone-like Booster tops are visible on the ground along with the final Booster segment for the right-hand SRB.

The replica Solid Rocket Boosters are almost complete with just the Aft Skirts needing to be added. The frame of the External Tank is under construction. A workman is visible below on a cherry picker working on the frame.
