About Armstrong Air & Space Museum...
The Armstrong Air & Space Museum in Wapakoneta, Ohio, celebrates the life and legacy of Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the Moon, while preserving the broader story of Ohio’s contributions to aviation and space exploration. Established in Armstrong’s hometown and dedicated on July 20, 1972—exactly three years after the Apollo 11 Moon landing—the museum stands as a tribute to one of humanity’s greatest achievements and the small-town roots of the astronaut who helped make it possible.
Designed to resemble a futuristic lunar outpost, the museum invites visitors to explore the history of Apollo 11, the Space Race, modern spaceflight, and the remarkable journey from Earth to the Moon and beyond. Through nationally significant artifacts, engaging exhibits, and hands-on STEM programming, the Armstrong Air & Space Museum continues to inspire curiosity, discovery, and the next generation of explorers, engineers, scientists, and innovators.
