The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum maintains the world's largest and most significant collection of aviation and space artifacts, encompassing all aspects of human flight, as well as related works of art and archival materials. Its research and outreach activities serve all audiences, within and beyond its walls. The Museum commemorates the past and is committed to educating and inspiring people to foster appreciation for the importance of flight to humanity. It operates two landmark facilities – the Museum in Washington, DC, and the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, that, together, welcome more than eight million visitors a year, making it the most visited museum in the country. It also is home to the Center for Earth and Planetary Studies. At both of its locations, the Museum presents programs, educational activities, lectures, and performances that reflect the American spirit, and the innovation, courage, and optimism that have led to triumphs in the history, science and technology of flight.
Members/Donors believe in the Museum’s mission to “Commemorate, Educate, Inspire” and ongoing work: to assess and improve programs, processes, and tools; revitalize facilities and refresh exhibitions to better engage and educate the public; preserve and share collections; and perform original research in planetary science and the history of aviation and spaceflight.
