This airplane hangar is located next to Dulles Airport and is part of the Smithsonion Air and Space Museum. They have sooo many airplanes and I learned many interesting things about space flight and air flight. It is so big because there is every plane you can imagine from the first airplane to all the space satellites. They are hanging from the ceiling and on the ground. You can view them from the floor or on the high walkways above them. They even have the Concorde which is huge and a top secret black spy plane that was used in the 60s and can travel from LA to Washington DC in 1hour. [FAST!] There was a satellite that took pictures from the sky then dropped the film attached to a parachute back to earth . How far we have come as the satellites just send the pictures and data back to earths computers!
The big surprise was the daffodils,forsythia and yes CHERRY BLOSSOMS! Spring really is around the corner.
