The mission of Tulsa Air and Space Museum & Planetarium is to preserve Oklahoma's aerospace heritage to inspire science-based learning through discovery. Our mission is carried out in a unique and stimulating setting that includes inspirational stories of pioneers and events, historic aircraft and displays, plus hands-on and interactive exhibits to enhance the educational experience. During your visit you may launch the Space Shuttle, climb into the seat of one of only three Rockwell Ranger 2000s in existence, fly the Viper F-16 wind tunnel, get an up-close view of an F-14 Tomcat Fighter Jet and explore the universe in the state-of-the-art James E. Bertelsmeyer Planetarium. TASM's newest addition, the MD80 Discovery Center, offers a one-of-a-kind venue for educational opportunities, corporate meetings, or weddings and private parties in the specially retrofitted cabin of an American Airline passenger jet.
