Where in the Smithsonian Institute would you find the memoribilia of the history of flight?

The Smithsonian Institution is a complex of many different museums (as well as the National Zoo), including the Museum of American History, the Museum of African Art, the American Art Museum, and the Museum of Natural History. The National Air and Space Museum features many artifacts from the history of flight as well as space travel. The Spirit of St. Louis, the plane flown by Charles Lindbergh in his first solo flight across the Atlantic, hangs from the rafters, as does SpaceShipOne, the first plane built and piloted into space by a private corporation. You can also touch a rock from the moon, see the filming model of Star Trek's U.S.S. Enterprise, and the original flyer built by the Wright brothers for the first controlled and powered flight. Admission is free. See "Related Links" for the museum's web site.
