A few years ago I was luck enough to get a tour of the Air and Space Museum and now thanks to the wonders of technology Ive upscaled these videos to 4K using AI software to give you an incredible view of the items on show there - including the wonderful Space Shuttle Discovery!
These are a compilation of videos I took during my last visit to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum. There are two museum - the main one being in Washington DC and the other, the Steven Udvar Hazy Center, is in Virginia.
The Space Shuttle Discovery is on display at the Virginia museum
The National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution, also called the NASM, is a museum in Washington, D.C.. It holds the largest collection of historic aircraft and spacecraft in the world. It was established in 1946 as the National Air Museum and opened its main building on the National Mall near L'Enfant Plaza in 1976. In 2014, the museum saw approximately 6.7 million visitors, making it the fifth most visited museum in the world. The museum contains the Apollo 11 command module, the Friendship 7 capsule which was flown by John Glenn, the Bell X-1 which broke the sound barrier, and the Wright brothers' plane near the entrance.
The National Air and Space Museum is a center for research into the history and science of aviation and spaceflight, as well as planetary science and terrestrial geology and geophysics. Almost all space and aircraft on display are originals or the original backup craft. It operates an annex, the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, at Dulles International Airport, which opened in 2003 and itself encompasses 760,000 square feet (71,000 m2). The museum currently conducts restoration of its collection at the Paul E. Garber Preservation, Restoration, and Storage Facility in Suitland, Maryland, while steadily moving such restoration and archival activities into the Mary Baker Engen Restoration Hangar, a part of the Udvar-Hazy annex facilities as of 2014.
The Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, also called the Udvar-Hazy Center, is the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum (NASM)'s annex at Washington Dulles International Airport in the Chantilly area of Fairfax County, Virginia, United States. It holds numerous exhibits, including the Space Shuttle Discovery and the EnolaGay.
The 760,000-square-foot (71,000 m2) facility was made possible by a $65 million gift in October 1999 to the Smithsonian Institution by Steven F. Udvar-Házy, an immigrant from Hungary and co-founder of the International Lease Finance Corporation, an aircraft leasing corporation.[2] The main NASM building, located on the National Mall in Washington, D.C, had always contained more artifacts than could be displayed, and most of the collection had been stored, unavailable to visitors, at the Paul E. Garber Preservation, Restoration, and Storage Facility in Silver Hill, Maryland. A substantial addition to the center encompassing restoration, conservation and collection-storage facilities was completed in 2010. Restoration facilities and museum archives were moved from the museum's Garber facility to the new sections of the Udvar-Hazy Center.[3]

I have been to Cocoa Beach several times but didn’t know the Space Center or Military base was open to the public. This is a cool video 💕
Love ur videos
Very interesting, thank you very much from Russia.
When I was 5 or 6 back in 72 my dad took to me to see a guy who was speaking at our church. Afterward we got to go up and say hi. I remember he talked to my dad for a minute, smiled and he gave me a pat on the head. I wasn't sure who he was or what he did but he said his name was Neil Armstrong.
Thank you!! I am hoping to go someday, this gave me even more wishes to go
Very well done. Good flow of relevant questions and answers. Assuming the cameraman and speaker are the same guy, outstanding! Thank you. 😀👍
Thanks so much for sharing!~!~!^^

I live about 10 minutes away from the Udvar Hazy center, I used to go every few weeks to walk around for a few hours and see an IMAX movie. Hope to go back regularly once it opens again and I get vaxxed up.
