Take a multi-stop journey through the history of flight in this classic IMAX adventure. Watch the Earth drop away beneath as you ascend into the sky in an 1800s gas balloon; soar across the Arizona skies with the U.S. Navy’s Blue Angels and blast off into space on a Saturn rocket.  This popular giant screen feature has played daily and has been seen by millions of visitors at the National Air and Space Museum since the museum opened on July 1, 1976.
