Review:
The USS Hornet is perhaps most famous for leading the recovery of the Apollo 11 mission in which Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first human beings to step foot onto the moon.
Not only does this ship show off the style and functionality of the historic aircraft carrier, it also serves as an amazing museum with exhibits and artifacts such as World War II retired aircraft and other historic jets and aircraft, as well as exhibits regarding the Apollo moon missions of the 1960s and 70s. Visitors to the USS Hornet Museum can take a self guided tour around the hangar deck as well as the flight deck and first deck of the massive ship.
Address: USS Hornet Museum, 707 W Hornet Ave, Alameda, CA 94501
