About Us

Mission

Preserving Achievement; Inspiring Innovation

• To preserve the history of the United States’ Space Program;
• To honor our nation’s astronauts and aerospace innovators;
• To educate current and future generations about the sacrifice and cooperation necessary to build the early space program;
• To inspire the next generation of scientists, innovators, and explorers who will take our nation, and the world, in new and exciting directions.

We at the non-profit U.S. Space Walk of Fame Foundation work to preserve the history of the U.S. Space program through our American Space Museum exhibits and educational programs, as well as the Space View Park Monuments dedicated to the space programs workers and astronauts.

While honoring and recognizing all of America’s space programs and their workers, the foundation agrees with astronaut Alan Shepard, when on May 13, 1996, he said, “We need to remember the people who made it possible; so little is said of them.” The intent of the American Space Museum and Space Walk of Fame is to honor and place emphasis on American space workers and others who made the space programs possible.
