- Matt KurtzAugust 24, 2014Really great surprise when I was suddenly stuck in Huntsville for 7 hours (cancelled connection). Such an incredible place to visit. The size of the rockets is mind blowing!
JD MaloneSeptember 5, 2015Great place for people into space and rockets but plan on it being at least a 4-5 hour stay bc of the tours and a lot of ground to cover.
Kri WoodApril 14, 2016Always enjoy going during the themed artifacts at the museum. The exhibits are always wonderful and the scenic view is always nice to see as well. they also have movies showing and a gift shop.- Dr Nicole Jones AlabamaMay 27, 2015The US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL contains a multitude of activities for all ages including interactive math and science exhibits, the Saturn V Museum, and the IMAX Theatre.

- Ray TothDecember 14, 2016A must see in Huntsville! Excellent collections of space and defense exhibits to keep you interested. IMAX Theater is also great.
Make sure you make it over to the Davidson Center and check out the Saturn V hall!
Thomas PiperOctober 11, 2016See the movies first. Then take your time through the rest of the museum, Fantastic.

Robert TaylorJune 21, 2021Very informative with artifacts from space. Gives you a true sense of how big the rockets were.
Been coming here since I was a baby. Something new every year to explore and learn.

Chris GJanuary 9, 2012Home of A-12, serial number 60-6930. She used to have NASA markings on the Tail, similar to the YF-12 NASA flew, however NASA never flew the A-12. She now has the correct markings.
KarenJJanuary 28, 2016Thoroughly enjoyed the bus tour of the Marshall Space Flight Center, especially the "mission control" for the ISS payload.
