i just happened to get there as a tour was starting. so many people it was broken into 3 groups. one of the guys in my group asked TONS of questions. he and the guide got into this big technical convo, so i ditched the group. as would be expected this museum has lots of airplanes. some that you're allowed... more

Who would miss this on a trip to DC? This was definitely a worthwhile visit even for those who aren't space fanatics. Can touch a piece of the moon and see spectacular pieces of history. They offer several Imax theater productions. more

The exhibits are truly unique and you will not see this stuff anywhere else. It is awe-inspiring to stand next to the actual pods that took man to the Moon and back.

I was really disappointed and so were my two sons, 10 & 13. It was crowded, noisy and the displays just weren't interesting. I did enjoy seeing things like the Wright Brothers plane, The Spirit of St. Louis, etc. but I was overwhelmed by the exhibits...it just didn't seem organized properly. The place needs to be updated - a complete... more
