Eli Whitney Museum

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away… With those simple words, an entire universe was born. On May 25, 1977, a revolution began.

Join us as we draw from this fantastical universe and imagine the tools needed to travel and explore the great beyond. Construct a custom spacecraft to launch under model rocket power. Design and build a model spacecraft to be cherished and displayed for years to come. Build a robot companion to help you navigate the stars. Work with others to build a monumental space station that will stay on our site and be enjoyed by all.
