    Fun way to spend a couple hours!
    Cool place with a lot of history on the air side. Lots of photo opportunities as well. As for the planetarium, we watched the film. “Stars.” That was cool but the night sky presentation afterwards was very interesting and enjoyable. Theater was really nice as well. Good way to spend a few hours in the area.

    A real "hidden Gem"
    We thoroughly enjoyed this museum! There is a lot of history and science packed into this place. We spent the entire afternoon there and still didn't read everything. There was helpful volunteers there as well to answer questions and just share their knowledge. We didn't have time to do the Planetarium so we will be back.

    Nice surprise for a last minute activity
    This was cool for kids and adults. Lots of interactive fun exhibits, combines older and newer experiences. Great bones here, a little more investment could really take this place to the next level. Just a little updating could go a long way…definitely go if you have kids.

    Worth a visit but especially if you have children
    Although this isn’t a very large facility, they have some really nice displays and a good bit of interactive stuff especially geared toward kids. You can look into the cockpit of a DC-9 and outside there is also a Vietnam era helicopter. A mock-up of one of the rovers from the moon and other space related displays. I got a kick out of the hot air balloon where the guy is just underneath it in a swing! There are a number of people to answer questions also.

    Very small, good for kids
    I think I’ve been spoiled because I’ve been to many air museums in Ohio, D.C., Virginia, and Europe and this one truly disappointed. It was very small, with limited information but great for an introduction to kids. The planetarium show was equally disappointing with primitive drawings and a film made almost 10 years ago. Again, kids would enjoy it. I think we saw the whole thing in 30 minutes including the gift shop.

    Airy and Spacey Out of this World Day 🌎 ✈️🚀
    Tulsa Air and Space Museum (TASM) was a blast and fun to explore everything that they had one display there. Anyone who is doing a vacation in Tulsa Oklahoma makes sure that you go see this place. Fun for all ages. Not to brag or anything, but I was the only one in my family who could do the astronaut space walk successfully. I got myself/astronaut back to the shuttle successfully without hitting any astros. All the simulations were the best part of the experience. My love of the space program became bigger when I had to do research for my delima essay on the shuttle disasters.

The staff (volunteers) were kind and friendly, a real asset to the place. The planetarium was fantastic and we really enjoyed the show. Sadly the museum, itself was a big let down, and there was very little to keep our kids interested. We spent about 2.5 hours here, but we have been spoilt with national space museums that have probably made our expectations a lot higher. We would not visit again, but I would reiterate that the staff were all wonderful, and we were grateful for their warmth and sincerity.

We went to a show at the planetarium and went through the museum. My 7 yr old loved the planetarium show. I had a young baby who got fussy so I had to spend my time in the lobby area and saw them very thoroughly sanitizing everything. They offer masks and hand sanitizer every where too.

There was a mix up about the ticket to the planetarium but they were very understanding and easy to work with.

The museum was very interesting. My kids mostly wanted to climb in planes and push buttons and pretend fly but theres so much more to do here. Lots of interesting information and my son particularly loved this place.

I went to see the Planetarium and was very disappointed with the show, the first 30 minutes was some animation that was narrated by Mark Hamill. It didn't really tell you anything. The last 10 minutes operator pointed out the Planets, and only 2 constellations. Basically he stated if you had a telescope you could these in night sky.

I was excepting a tour of the night sky, Very disappointed with the show. I wouldn't go back.

It's worth going once if you're interested in aerospace and NASA. They give a tour of an airplane and a helicopter.

Vale la pena si estas enteresado en aeroespacio y NASA. Te dan una gira de un avion y un helicoptero.

This place was great! Small place but very interesting and many interactive things for all of us to enjoy. My 5 year old loved sitting in the cockpit of an aircaft and using the balloon and flight simulators. The planetarium was an awesome experience. Overall we spents a several hours here and enjoyed it enough that we'll be back.

There's not much to actually see here. We went because of an Oklahoma travel magazine, but the exhibits and information is either dated or strictly about the airplane industry of the region. With the latter, there's some good knowledge that a person can pick up--some of it is is very interesting. However, the facility is pretty basic with its presentation.
