The Discovery Space Shuttle getting transported to its ultimate home Amidst the 169 aircraft on display, two of the center’s highlights include: Enola Gay, the Boeing plane that dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, as well as the Discovery Spacecraft, which in its years of service launched and landed 39 times, totalling more flights than any other spacecraft to date. Udvar-Hazy Center are comprised of two large hangars, a second-floor viewing area designed to give visitors a behind-thescenes perspective, an observation tower that provides a view of planes landing and taking off at the adjacent Washington Dulles International Airport, an IMAX theater, and many interactive exhibition areas for the young and old alike. The exhibitions areas inside the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, a 760,000-square-foot facility at Washington Dulles International Airport in the Chantilly area of Virginia is essentially, on offshoot of the National Air and Space Museum building in the National Mall, which had too many artefacts and not enough room.
