The International Space Hall of Fame, Alamogordo

The International Space Hall of Fame opened in 1976 to care for and exhibit artifacts of our shared space history. In October, each year, new members are inducted into the Space Hall of Fame each for a notable contribution to space exploration.

Included at the site in Alamogordo in addition to the Hall of Fame are a Shuttle Camp, a summer program for children through the 12th grade, the Astronaut Memorial Garden, and an IMAX Dome Theater and Planetarium.

The Hall of Fame has 5 floors. Each floor is arranged as a Gallery. You start viewing exhibits after taking an elevator to the 4th-floor Gallery (Blazing New Trails) and then walking down sloping walkways back to the first floor.
