Join us at the Intrepid Museum for the fourth annual Space & Science Festival on July 23–26! Meet an astronaut, experience the movement of satellites in real time and get a glimpse into the future of space exploration, all during this four-day celebration of science and innovation!

The Space & Science Festival kicks off on Thursday, July 23, with Close Encounters of the Third Kind, the next film in our free Summer Movie Series, shown on the flight deck.
