For most people, a visit to The Museum of Flight is the closest they will ever get to a space voyage.
The Museum of Flight is a private air and space museum located at the King County International Airport south of Seattle. It also serves as a giant classroom, accommodating 140,000 students every year through programs such as Aviation Learning Center, the Challenger Learning Center, and ACE summer camp.
The museum has more than 160 historically important aircraft and spacecraft, an original Boeing manufacturing facility, a NASA Space Shuttle Trainer that used to train astronauts preparing for a voyage on a space shuttle, the first ever fighter plane, a real Concorde, and so much more.
The Museum of Flight is one of the best things to do in Seattle with kids. Visitors even get to spend some time exploring the Space Shuttle Trainer and experience exactly what the astronauts experienced during their training.
