Leaving the Park
Since the Kennedy Space Center is far from any population center, it is unlikely you will want to leave during your visit but if you decide to do so, just get your hand stamped at the exit and you will be able to reenter.
Money
You will find ATMs to the right of the Ticket Plaza, on the wall of the Space Shop across from the Astronaut Encounter, and at the Apollo/Saturn V Center. They are connected to all the major bank systems and credit cards.
Pets
Pets will be boarded free of charge during your visit. The pet kennel is to your right as you approach Information Central.
Security
Security is exceptionally tight. All visitors must pass through metal detectors and a battery of additional security personnel stands ready to conduct more detailed searches. Coolers and backpacks are banned and no lockers are available, so plan on leaving your excess stuff in the car and traveling light.
