SpaceLink—like all our Link galleries—is a high tech environment accompanied by high touch experiences. Dock the Space Shuttle. Construct a planetary rover. Surf the web. Watch NASA's latest launch countdowns and press conferences. Try on a flight suit. Track the orbits of satellites. SpaceLink is high tech and hands on!

Part media center, part discovery room, and part newsroom, SpaceLink brings you the "latest and greatest" in Space and Aerospace Science. SpaceLink is equipped with Internet-ready computers, media players, satellite televison and surround-sound audio systems. Computer and video sources can be displayed on huge screens offering visitors a unique immersive experience. If it’s happening in Space and Aerospace Science—it’s happening in SpaceLink.

By far the most important resource in SpaceLink is its staff. Our knowledgeable, trained staff is comprised of Space and Aerospace Science educators and community volunteers who serve as exhibit facilitators. More than guides, our staff is present to share their excitement for Space and Aerospace Science, to engage visitors in interesting dialogue, and to ensure a fun, dynamic, educational environment.

SpaceLink is also home to the Hubble Space Telescope National Visitor Center. Keep up with the latest discoveries from this orbiting observatory which is constantly peering into the darkest reaches of space to unlock the clues to the origins of our universe.
