In 1930, the Cessna Airplane Company offered the public a chance to fly. Aviation enthusiasts could buy a CG-2 glider for $398 from the company catalog. CG's design was based on German primary gliders used to train pilots after World War I. The CG could be pulled by automobile, aircraft, or could be launched to flight speed by a slingshot-like device off of a hill or ridge. #museumofflight #cessna Happy 70th birthday to the @usairforce! On September 18, 1947, President Truman signed the National Security Act which created the U.S. Air Force as an independent service branch. The influence of the USAF on aviation can be found throughout the Museum. #museumofflight #usaf Following the launch of the Soviet satellite Sputnik 1 on October 4, 1957, there was a frenzied effort by the United States to launch a satellite of its own, beginning the space race. Explorer 1 was ready for launch in 84 days. Before work was completed, however, the Soviet Union launched a second satellite, Sputnik 2, on November 3, 1957. Explorer 1 was launched on February 1, 1958, and orbited Earth until March 31, 1970. #museumofflight #explorerone #satellite Today is #CollectRocksDay! Apollo 12 Mission Commander Pete Conrad collected this Moon rock from Block Crater. Learn more about this Moon rock in our Apollo Exhibit. #museumofflight Our giant 3D screen puts you on the deck of a super carrier in ‘Aircraft Carrier: City at Sea’ and immerses you in warp speed with ‘Space Next.’ For showtimes and tickets at our 3D theater, visit our website. #museumofflight Get ready for Orbit Around October! The Museum offers the latest in Space Science all month long, starting with a lecture and book signing with Leonard David, author of “Mars: Our Future on the Red Planet.” For more info and Orbit Around October Events, visit our website! #museumofflight #mars #space #october By far the most-produced fighter ever (over 33,000 estimated), the Messerschmitt Bf 109 served actively in various air forces around the world from the mid-1930s until the mid-1950s. Small, agile, and well-armed, it proved a serious weapon in the hands of an experienced pilot. Learn more by visiting the Personal Courage Wing. #museumofflight
