Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The Peterson Air & Space Museum is open to visitors free of charge on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. The museum first opened in 1982, originally called the NORAD Visitor Center. In 1996, all of the original building of the Municipal Airport were designated on the country’s National Register of Historic Places. Colorado decided to create a historic district out of the area of building, which is where the museum is situated today at the center of the district at the Peterson Air Force Base. All of the museum’s heritage items are a part of the Heritage collection of the U.S. Air Force.
