Qian Xuesen Library & Museum, Space technology museum and scientific library at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China.

The museum displays over 70,000 artifacts, including manuscripts, photographs, and personal belongings of Chinese aerospace pioneer Qian Xuesen in a 3,000-square-meter exhibition space.

The institution opened on December 11, 2011, marking the centennial of Qian Xuesen's birth, commemorating his contributions to China's missile and aviation technology development after 1949.

The building features a reddish facade on Huashan Road with an artistic depiction of Qian's face, reflecting architectural elements from the Gobi Desert.

Located at 1800 Huashan Road in Xuhui District, the museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with final entry at 4:30 PM.

In May 2024, it became the first and only scientist-dedicated museum among China's 326 national first-grade museums.
