About Cape Canaveral Space Force Museum

Cape Canaveral Space Museum Force (formerly the Air Force Space and Missile Museum) is located at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Its facilities house artifacts such as rockets, missiles, and space-related equipment that document the history of United States military space and missile programs, including those of the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Space Force, and other branches, as well as commercial launch providers.

Portions of the museum are located on an active military installation and require advance authorization to visit. Access to these areas is typically available to U.S. citizens through commercial tour providers, including Canaveral Tours and Space Shuttle Excursions, or through arranged group tours coordinated via the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse.

The museum’s mission is to collect, restore, and exhibit historically significant artifacts related to the development and heritage of U.S. Space Force launch activities. It emphasizes the role of Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, which has supported more than 8,000 major launches since the early 1950s.
