  • Movie Tran Thanh's Lady's House is like garbage. Disrespectful attitude. So don't watch and boycott.

  • It was great to see the space shuttle up close. Free after 3pm. Very educational displays. Love the variety of the exhibits The journey of the shuttle from the airport to the museum is amazing to see. Great movie and there is a virtual ride that last 7 minutes for a fee. There are 3 levels grab a map a start your adventure!!!
  • A great place to take your children young or old for a memorable weekend getaway. There are 3 levels of fun and excitement that takes about 3 to 5 hours of detailed browsing and playing. The space shuttle Endeavor is my favorite exhibit. I get goosebumps every time I go visit it. It is the symbol of the pinnacle of human ingenuity and endeavors. The whole place is free to visit and the Rose Garden outside is very photogenic.
