St. Louis to the Stars

The Missouri History Museum presents St. Louis to the Stars  on Tuesday, August 18!

St. Louisans know their city is out of this world — but what about its history of sending people to the stars? During the mid-20th-century space race, St. Louis played a vital role in missions that carried astronauts into orbit. Join Associate Public Historian Darby Ratliff to explore this fascinating story and the many St. Louisans who helped make space travel possible.
