|Recurring Event (See all)

Boeing’s air and space museum, the James S. McDonnell Prologue Room, will be open to the public this summer!

From biplanes to space capsules, the Prologue Room displays artifacts and models that trace the history of Boeing and its heritage companies: McDonnell, Douglas, North American Aviation, Hughes, Jeppesen, Piasecki and Stearman.

Here, hundreds of scale models, photographs, paintings and artifacts tell an amazing story of discovery. Highlights include full-scale mockups of the Mercury and Gemini space capsules, an F-4 Phantom II ejection seat and an aircraft lineage timeline that traces all McDonnell Douglas products from 1920 to 1997.

Parking and admission to the museum are free. Walk-in and self-guided visits are welcome; reservations are required for guided tours.
