The annual RE/MAX Ballunar Liftoff Festival and Johnson Space Center (JSC) Open House will be held Sept. 28-30, 2012.
The event includes tours of NASA facilities, outdoor exhibits and astronaut autograph sessions. The schedule for the latter is generally available a few days before the weekend begins.

I'm thinking of braving the traffic jam and visiting the open house on Saturday this year. It's been a while... do they still charge by the car? I think it was something small like $10?

It's $20 for one day if you pay at the gate, or $10 if you buy your ticket online, or $25 for a three-day pass (online).
