Air Force Space & Missile Museum
The Air Force Space & Missile Museum is located at Launch Complex 26 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. It includes artifacts from the early American space program and includes an outdoor rocket garden displaying rockets, missiles and space-related equipment chronicling the US Air Force.
The museum is accessible to the public as a part of a daily "Cape Canaveral: Then and Now" tour offered by the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. Free tours are also offered by the Air Force 45th Space Wing Community Relations office.
The Air Force Space & Missile History Center, a companion to the museum, is open to the general public six days a week. The History Center is located just outside the south gate of Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
