i dont think i got the full experiance but the small dome is really really really boring with very little to space and science. i guess i already know to much about space to actully be amazed by the facts. i should come back.

This is the review of the little visitor center right in front of the air base. The admission is free and you get to see a lot of interesting stuff if you are into space travel and all that things. I talked to a nice old lady, she is volunteering here and explains everything to visitors. We had a nice conversation over about an hour. It was really amazing to get an inside peak of NASA. They have a small stage, where they show movies and also it was pretty cool to try the space shuttle simulator.There are also some model modules of the ISS here. You can walk inside and get a peak of what it looks llike up there.

I really can recommend to go here and visit. It's nice, for free, kid friendly and plente of parking nearby.
Also make sure you talk to one of the people there, they have amazing stories to tell and can give you more detailed information on all the exhibits.

Not fun at all! They do not allow public to visit at all, the guard s attitude is bad and the visitor center was closed until January, nothing interesting outside, I do not know how other people get into this center previously, a very disappointed visit!

It doesnt sound like touristic activity when comes to San Fran although it is definitely worth to get inside. I really enjoyed my time hanging around inside, checking space craft materials and it was a free entry. I would suggest you to check.

I visited this place as a student last February (2019) and absolutely loved the visit. They took us to a fluid dynamics lab and another where they messed with stuff like the mars rovers... Pretty interesting
I'd definitely visit it again and I'd probably be blown away again.
The tour was so inspiring!
Hope you can get the same experience

You are allowed to enter as long as you show ID at the gate. There is an air museum towards the back of the park just next to Hangar One, the big metal grid structure. I visited when the museum was closed, but there were plenty of planes outside to view, see the vastness of Hangar One, and visit the SpaceBar for a beer.

After viewing a short video of it on YouTube, we were excited to drive from Livermore to visit. Walked inside and it was nothing like the video of the same place in 2017. Very disappointed and was a waste of time and gas. Would not recommend.

This review is for the Exploration Center, which rates a solid meh. It's a small exhibit space with a few interesting displays and a replica of part of a space station you can walk inside. A fair bit of the space is occupied by a theatre with some documentaries playing, which seemed pretty interesting.

I wouldn't send visitors here unless they were really really really bored, or had a strong interest in space exploration. I took young kids there, and it entertained them for all of 30 minutes (mostly running up and down a ramp).

The visitors' center and the gift shop are a disgrace. I was embarrassed to see how neglected the museum is and how little the so-called gift shop had to offer. The is the Silicon Valley, after all. The the museum should be a spot of light and energy for youth in the area. Instead, it is a sad and forlorn space. As an American, and especially now as the grandmother of a gifted 9yr old who loves science, I want things to change in this pivotal environment. An opportunity wasted it is, not only for my grandson but for all the children here in the SF Bay Area. Our youth and the future will be better served if there was a close examination of contract covering who has the authority over the museum and gift shot.

I brought people here because some reviews said we could visit the center, but the security guard said we couldn t. The only thing we could visit was just the rundown gift shop outside of the gate.

This IS NOT OPEN to the public. IT IS NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Dealing with visitors is also not the strong of the guards who stay on the property, they are unnecessary and excessively thick to infomarem that the facility is not open to the public.

I did not expect a lot when I went to Ames. But I was stunned with how much research is done here. I was able to do an inside tour with friends who work in Ames. I was able to see the Artemis moon lander simulator. A lot of wind tunnels. Many lunar research. Amazing place! Oh yeah, the visitor center is now just a gift shop.

Okay, so THIS IS NOTHING LIKE JPL in Pasdena. I and my girlfriend where badly disapointed that there are no tours of facilities, the jarhead security gaurds are unfriendly. Overpriced giftshop with some cool patches, but other than that, not worth a visit! Only if your looking for a few souvenirs.

Nice

If you have an hour to spare, please visit this museum. It is small but it is worth the visit. If nothing else, just the opportunity of looking at the moon sample pays the trip :) and it is free!

I wouldn't really consider this a gift shop because I didn't see anything where to buy. But if you want to look at some pretty cool photos and projects, additional works on Stop by. It's not the best. It's actually very generic but it's worth a look if you're in the area.

Was expecting quite a lot more, but the place looks quite dated and in need of renovation. However, that saying, it is free entry. If you are looking to pick up some NASA merchs and not really to experience anything much, this might be the place for you.

The staff there are very friendly and helpful.

A remarkable facility as the NASA Ames Research Center offer insightful innovations to reflect upon. On our visit back in February Dad and I witnessed the 'Blue - G' mirror film and we simply could not stop beaming about this NEW More

Initially it was an American federal agency that was ordered to start building the supersonic Bell X 5 in 1951. After that, it became NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

NASA is a very good way, but the future has pilas, for example, a funnel-shaped spacecraft pulling the materials in space, such as vacuum and natural space fuel to reach speed of 300 km per hour to reach the speed of 70 km per hour to think that there is more on the Internet

This is only a gift shop. No research. No useful exhibits. Total waste of time, except if you want to buy stuff with the NASA brand. Doesn t NASA have anything better than this? I hope that taxpayer money has not been wasted on this. At least they should change to name to NASA children s gift shop.

Gone are the days, when we used to go out for gifts. However, trusting any random online store is not possible. This is one of the best stores I have ever seen. I got all the things at my doorstep.
