Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum

Military fans love the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, which is dedicated to maritime history. The institution has an impressive collection of ships, including the Intrepid itself, an aircraft carrier used in World War II and the Vietnem War. Opened in 1982, the museum holds a number of “firsts” for the technology and engineering industries: the first space shuttle (Enterprise), the first submarine with missile capacity and the fastest commercial aircraft to cross the Atlantic Ocean (the Concorde), are among some of the center’s notable features.
