01 Nov Gift names Kent Kresa Space Gallery
Evidence Design is busy finalizing a wide variety of exhibits for the three-level Space Gallery. These include artifact displays (flown capsules, powerful rockets and cutting-edge robots), hands-on interactives (program a rover or experiment with telescope optics), and immersive media programs that explore our universe.
At the end of October, the Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center received another significant $25 million gift from Kent Kresa and the Kent Kresa Family Foundation. Kresa is the former Chairman, President and CEO of Northrop Grumman Corporation, which also donated the Solid Rocket Motors that will be part of Endeavour’s vertical stack display. The Kent Kresa Space Gallery is named in recognition of this gift and his decades-long support to advance science learning.
