We had a quick 2 day trip to DC and of the 5 Museums we visited this was our favorite. Awesome to see what the Wright brothers began and where it went from there. All ages can enjoy this one.

Go as soon as they open if you can help it because this place fills up with kids very quick making it difficult to get around.

Plan to spend the better part of the day there, there is a ton to see, old aircraft, rockets, moon landers, spacesuits and all kinds of other cool things. I don't have any kids yet but the one's I saw running around the museum were obviously loving it.

I was really looking forward to this museum but found that it was just okay. When we first arrived, we weren't sure where to start. We asked the guide at the Welcome Desk and he shoved a map in our hands and said "It's really quiet simple ... Air to the right. Space to the left." Not helpful at all.... More

From the Spirit of St. Louis to the moon lander it is easy to see why this is the Smithsonian's most popular museum. Very well done and interesting.

We had a fairly quick visit here. Mainly cause it was packed with hundreds and hundreds of school groups. Probably would have been better early AM. Nonetheless a few cool things on national space and airplane history. a few extra simulators to pay extra for. Definitely a good few hours to cover it well. But crowded crowded crowded and that...

This museum is interesting and informational. If you are a lover of planes, space shuttles, etc., then this is the place for you. Go early to avoid lines, and remember that in the spring many 8th grade classes take a trip to Washington D.C.

This building is chock full of vital artifactssurrounding how far advanced science and how far the space program has advanced. I would recommend this to everyone wanting ;recognizing that The National Air And Space Museum.

Can't believe that its free! Amazing experience but really needed more time than we had to fully appreciate this place.Great interactive areas for children and displays were well spaced out and informative.
