Description: Enjoy a one-hour tour of the San Diego Air and Space Museum located in beautiful Balboa Park. Explore the Museum’s Library and Archives, the third largest of its type in the nation, where the Archives staff will explain their effort to digitize their vast photo and moving image holdings and put them online. Additional highlights include a “behind-the-scenes” look at the Museum’s restoration/construction area, where flyable aircraft are built from scratch, and a visit to the “4-D” theater!
Directions: Located in Balboa Park, 2001 Pan American Plaza, San Diego, CA 92101.
