Hidden for 10,000 years, Inner Space Cavern is one of the best preserved caves in Texas and one of the few places where prehistoric remains are found. Inner Space Cavern was discovered in 1963 by the Texas Highway Department.  During regulation core testing ,the highway department drilled several core samples down through the ground and wound up drilling in to the top of the cave.  They searched all over the surounding area but could not find an access into the cave.  So they drilled a two foot wide hole down through 33.5 feet of limestone bedrock.  The hole, known as the Discovery Hole, was the only entrance to the cave for several months.  There are over 5 miles of cave passage way connected to Inner Space Cavern, making it the second largest cave in Texas.
