Smilies Legend
Since opening in 1990 outside the gate to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame has honored America's early space pioneers through the exhibition of their personal memorabilia. The displays told the story of the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo veterans, all of whom were enshrined in the Hall. Beginning in 2001 however, the Hall began recognizing a new class of astronauts: those who flew missions on the space shuttle. Those astronauts, selected for inclusion at a rate of three to four a year and now numbering 25 with the latest class of four added over the weekend of May 4, also loaned artifacts from their collections but the Hall did not have a place to exhibit them.
