National Air and Space Museum


Here in the picture is the Spirit of St. Luis, in which Charles Lindbergh completed the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight. To the right of it is SpaceShipOne, the first privately built, piloted vehicle to rerach space. The orange Bell X-1 and on the floor below is the red Breitling Orbiter 3 gondola. Just outside the picture was John Glenn's Mercury Friendship 7 capsule and the command module Columbia that carried home the astronauts from the first landing on the Moon
