Cool, stuff you could only see in movies and news broadcasts. The submarine walkthrough a huge bonus! Fantastic stuff of what used to make America great.

My phone died so I couldn't show my online ticket and was basically told sorry can't do anything for you. So paid for a tour I couldn't do and drove from Ontario to see it

A really amazing experience. Highlight was the Growler submarine. It is hard to believe that the submariners could exist underwater in such cramped conditions for so long. The aircraft carrier itself was fascinating and we really enjoyed the planes and other aircraft on the Flight deck.

Impressive to see the planes, the ship, and the space travel exhibit. Gives a good impression of its history. We’re not the type to read each sign or watch each video and so forth, so there’s a lot more info to get. But me and my son spent about 2,5 hours and had a good time.

Very interesting place so much history in one place, amazing variety of planes, space ship, submarine, ship and helicopter. It's great being able to get on board and ex military ship and submarine to see what like would have been like aboard and also seeing fighter jets and helicopters up close. The NASA exhibit was really interesting and amazing to see a real space shuttle up close. The growler was brilliant too slightly harder to navigate with all the water tight bulkhead door ways but this is expected on board and ex naval submarine. Over all fantastic experience

We spent 2.5 hrs here and could've easily spent around 2 hrs. There was so much to see. My 6 year old enjoyed exploring. It's a nice way to experience history.
