Eight Stennis Streets Renamed This Month
Stennis Space Center personnel have undertaken a project to rename the center’s streets to reflect a NASA theme. The project began as an effort by a Performance Improvement and Quality Enhancement (PIQE) team and by a NASA employee suggestion to rename the main road at Stennis Space Center.
Robert Taylor, an electrician with Johnson Controls World Services Inc., was the team leader of the PIQE group that initiated this project. After consulting with NASA, it was decided that Stennis Space Center streets would be renamed to represent various Space Shuttles and those who helped pioneer the space center.
Eight streets are being renamed this fiscal year. Road A will be renamed Shuttle Parkway because the Space Shuttle Main Engine test program is SSC’s primary mission. Roads L, N and I are to be renamed Saturn Drive commemorating the announcement by the federal government to place its test facility for the Saturn V rocket here.
Road B, located in the administration area, will be renamed Balch Boulevard in honor of Jackson Balch, former SSC director. Road D will be called Propellant Boulevard in keeping with the cryogenc liquid oxygen dock located at the end of the road. Road E will become Endeavour Boulevard in honor of our nation’s newest shuttle orbiter, and Road K, near the Visitors Center, will be renamed Columbia Drive.
The signs for these streets will be changed prior to SSC’s Family Day; therefore, all maps given out for the event will indicate the new street names.
In addition to these changes, Taylor said that over the next few years other Stennis Space Center roads will be renamed.

hibits from SSC and other NASA centers will be on display including an impressive, full-scale Space Station habitat module that guests can walk through.
Other activities, events and demonstrations include carnival and pony rides for children, an Army National Guard helicopter, a flyover by Meridian Air National Guard F-4s, model rocket launches and skydivers. The Navy Show Band will also perform.
Upon arrival, visitors should stop by the Information Tent to pick up 30th anniversary commemorative packets which include lapel pins, photographs, buttons and history booklets. All activities are free, and no tickets are required except for the bus tours. Tour tickets are available on a first-come, first-serve basis at the Information Tent. An employee badge or vehicle with an SSC decal is required at the gates for entrance.
