Smithsonian’s Folklife Festival Celebrates NASA’s 50 Years

“Moon buggies, stardust and space food are a few of the things visitors will learn about at the “NASA: 50 Years and Beyond” program during this summer’s Smithsonian Folklife Festival. The program will showcase the role men and women of NASA have played in broadening the horizons of American science and culture, and the role they will continue to play in shaping the future through exploration and stirring the public imagination. The festival will be held outdoors on the National Mall between 7th and 14th streets from Wednesday, June 25, through Sunday, June 29, and Wednesday, July 2, through Sunday, July 6. Admission is free.”
