** About Our Non-profit

The American Space Museum offers these memorabilia shows to help support our non-profit operations. The 501(c)(3) non-profit U.S. Space Walk of Fame Foundation works to preserve the history of the U.S. Space program through our American Space Museum exhibits and educational programs, as well as the Space View Park Monuments. We agree with astronaut Alan Shepard, when on May 13, 1996, he said, “We need to remember the people who made it possible; so little is said of them.” Our intent is to honor and place emphasis on American space workers and others who made the space programs possible.

The museum’s collection includes thousands of artifacts, including flown items, Shuttle and Cape Launch Complex Consoles, and mission memorabilia. We also have educational programs and feature “Stay Curious” our video podcast that airs weekdays at 4 pm Eastern on YouTube. Please Visit us sometime.
