A space engineer, armed with a gun has shot down a hostage and himself after barricading into Nasa's Johnston Space Centre In Houston on Saturday Morning, international media reported.
The gunman has killed a male hostage, local police have confirmed. A female hostage was found unharmed.
Police had been called to Building 44 at the Texas complex, which houses communications and a tracking development laboratory, and employees had been evacuated.
Police said that an employee had alerted them after seeing the gunman, describing him as a white male aged between 50 and 60.
Initial reports said that two shots had been fired, and police said it was likely that the hostage had been killed at that point.
The gunman barricaded himself into a room and police were trying to establish communication with him when they heard another shot.
It has been claimed that the gunman was a NASA contract worker, meaning he would have had security clearance.
The Texas complex is the home of Mission Control and the training centre for NASA's astronaut corps.
