Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center

The Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center displays numerous aircraft and spacecraft across two main hangars, including the Space Shuttle Discovery and Concorde supersonic passenger jet.

The center opened its doors on December 15, 2003, as an extension of the National Air and Space Museum to exhibit the expanding Smithsonian Institution collection.

The museum presents educational programs about aviation and space exploration through interactive exhibits, flight simulators, and regular presentations by museum specialists.

The facility remains open daily from 10:00 AM to 5:30 PM, with free admission for all visitors and parking available for 15 dollars until 4:00 PM.

The Mary Baker Engen Restoration Hangar allows visitors to watch technicians preserve and repair historical aircraft through a glass-enclosed mezzanine observation area.
