A very nice museum experience awaits you at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility Visitors Center! The displays and grounds were nice and we liked the interactive displays- especially the interactive earth model! The employees at the information desk and in the gift shop were very friendly and helpful. The presentations in the theater were very informative. We loved the gift shop and the model rockets around the facility! This is a nice place to spend an hour when visiting the Chincoteague area!
