The National Atomic Testing Museum is devoted to educating the public about the country's nuclear weapons testing at the Nevada test site. It aims to promote a better understanding of the role that testing plays in deterring nuclear weapons and in geo-political history.

Currently, the museum's collection includes more than 16,000 artifacts, many of them rare. Aside from showcasing the collection in exhibits, the 8,000-square-foot space also features learning activities on topics such as atmospheric and underground testing, radiation, and the atomic age.
