A detailed history of Space Exploration, Early Navigation, Satellites, the construction of the International Space Station, amongst other things you'll see and experience here. This is a very "hands on" museum. You'll have the opportunity to touch many of the objects displayed that are not behind glass.

Viewing the model of The International Space Station was one of my favorite exhibits. It took many launches into Space by numerous countries to send the materials to build this phenomenal structure above the Earth.

The museum's space exhibits are equally impressive, with highlights including the Apollo 11 command module, the lunar module used during the Apollo missions, and space suits worn by astronauts. Visitors can also learn about the history of space exploration, including the early missions to the moon, the Space Shuttle program, and the International Space Station.

It was amazing to see how the technology has evolved since the early Missions like the Apollo Project in the 1960's.
