SPACE EXPO

A good number of exhibited objects have actually been in space.

Space Expo is an interactive museum where you can learn a lot about space. The exhibit features a recreated space station, a life-size scale model of the moon landing, an original Sojuz capsule and complete rocket engines.

The Dutch astronaut Andre Kuipers explains in an interactive way how gravity works, what a black hole is and which space missions are currently being worked on.

Space Expo is also the official visitor center of ESTEC, the technical heart of the European space agency ESA.
With the space shuttle tour you can join the train at an additional cost and you get a tour of the development and test rooms.
