We are working to bring the Discovery space shuttle from the Smithsonian to NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, ensuring it remains on public display close to where much of America’s space exploration history was made. This move aims to enhance STEM education and keep the shuttle accessible to communities connected to its legacy.
