Welcome to The Space Museum!

The Space Museum is pleased to present, perhaps, the largest privately held collection of space memorabilia and artifacts in the state of Missouri.

The historical significance and quality of these artifacts rival those found in major space centers.  Presentation is professionally executed and second to none.

Without question, visitors agree that the Museum experience propels them to another time and place.  A place of wonder and excitement!

Unique to the artifacts in the Museum collection is the large number of items previously owned by the astronauts.  As their significance is considered, the visitor cannot deny that a connection to these brave men and women is felt.  It allows you to get, “behind their eyes”.   You will begin to understand why they are special and took the risks required to probe the new frontier.

The Space Museum is as much about an idea as it is about entertainment and preserving these important relics.  It endeavors to infect the visitor with a sense of how important and dramatic space exploration is.  Based on post visit interviews, we are accomplishing this.   We are encouraging the start of a new journey, a journey into a promising future as a spacefaring people.

Come.  “Join the journey!”
