I am heading to Kennedy Space Center in a couple of weeks and was wondering which IMAX film to go to while I'm there - 'Hubble 3D' or 'Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon 3D'.
Any of you have any recommendations as to which is better or do you think both of them are must-sees?

You will probably want a two day pass -- I can't remember if you automatically get back in the second day.
Try to arrange your schedule to see both IMAX movies and certainly the astronaut encounter. The museum is great, the rocket garden is great, and you will certainly want to see the Saturn V. Don't forget the 4:45 astronaut signing in the gift shop.

I strongly suggest reserving at least an hour to stand next to the Gemini 9 spacecraft in the museum and try to re-live what Geno experienced during his EVA. It's easy to reconstruct (in your mind) what he must have gone through. And there is much more.
