Samuel Oschin Pavilion Opens

Endeavour is on view! The temporary Samuel Oschin Pavilion is open to the public, showcasing the mighty orbitor in all its grandeur, along with artifacts like a Space Shuttle Main Engine (SSME) and SpaceHab, a module that expanded liveable, workable space in the shuttle’s cargo bay.  Also on display are the first hints of the permanent exhibit, including some of our drawings that give a sneak peek of gallery organization, and paper models that reveal the exhibit program’s influence on early architectural studies. It’s starting to get real, folks!
