By becoming a member of our team, you will get to do exciting hands-on demonstrations for museum visitors on weekends. Located throughout the museum are Discovery Carts that contain fun educational materials such as a wind tunnel and unique historical memorabilia. Using these supplies, you will present and explain concepts such as aerodynamics, aerospace science, and forces in motion, while also highlighting space program spin-offs and bringing the tales of historical figures to life.
