Collection: Space

Starting with the records of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, formed in 1915 to study problems of flight and to conduct research in aeronautics, the National Archives holds in trust the records of NASA and other records related to aeronautics, including the Wright brothers' patent for their flying machine.

We're pleased to offer interesting and high-quality space themed items in our store, in support of the exhibits, public programs and educational initiatives at the National Archives Museum.
