I looked at flights from Ireland and price-wise it’s within my budget for a trip. I was wondering can anyone tell me how the tickets (which don’t appear to be on sale yet) are priced, and if there are opportunities to have photos taken with the special guests? I’d love to visit the Cosmosphere and see Odyssey and Gemini X among many other amazing artifacts! |

I think you may need to contact the Cosmosphere directly or wait until they announce more details to learn about ticket prices and the plans for the event with regards to access to the guests.That said, I can highly recommend a visit to the Cosmosphere. The galleries were just recently refreshed and the museum has an unrivaled collection of artifacts. It is a must-see for any space history enthusiast. |

Of course, I agree with Robert, the museum is great. |

I have been in contact with the Cosmosphere. There will be tiered tickets, and the most expensive ones will include a reception where you should be able to meet, greet, and take photos with the VIPs. |

In case anyone missed it, tickets are on sale now for members, and will go on sale in a month for non-members.The premium package called Artemis has already sold more than half of the available tickets. |
