Where I live we have a museum for space flight that is affiliated with the Smithsonian, The Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Discovery Center.
The KCSDC had an excellent direct in its early years and because of his many contacts this museum holds some artifacts that no other museum has.
It has the original and trouble plagued Apollo 13 capsule. The Libery Bell capsule that set on the ocean floor for years. And hanging in the lobby is an SR 71 Blackbird spy plane. Many other notable items as well. Also many reproductions that were used in movies. Space works, a branch of the museum, built many mock ups such as the Apollo 13 capsule for the movie.
The KCSDC and this area welcomes you to come for a visit. Perhaps send your child or grandchild or yourself to one of the Space Camps. Watch an Imax movie, watch Dr. Goddard's lab demonstrations, etc.
A true treasure for this area and for all of America.
