Humankind has always looked to the skies since the beginning of our species' time on the planet. When the Wright brothers made their first flight in 1903 through, we finally were able to look from the sky. In the decades since, engineers, daredevils, and dreamers have made amazing advancements on crafts for both air and space.

Samples from amazing moments in air and space history are collected here, such as the Apollo 11 Mission, the brilliant Space Shuttle Program, and the iconic SR-71 Blackbird Jet. You'll also find specimens from the stars and beyond, with authentic meteorites available for collection. These geologic wonders hold the key to understanding the formation of our solar system and tell us the ancient story of our planet's creation.
