 Dedicted in honor of the seven NASA astronauts who lost their lives in the explosion of the Challanger Space Shuttle this beautiful and idyllic park is located just off Highway 45 and Nasa Road 1.
With 100 acres set aside for a bird sancturay as well as three elevated observation platforms, views of Clear Creek, a learning center, pavilion, picnic area and man made pond that is availabe to the public for fishing and stocked yearly with large Mouth Bass and Catfish, there is something for eveyone in the family.
When looking at the memorial you realize the design is an exact color reproduction of the the logo that the crew mambers designed themselves for the mission.The memorial that states "On January 28, 1986, the Space Ship Challanger, during mission 51-L, exploded at 11:39am, seventy three seconds after lift off, killing all aboard" is awe inspiring.
