This week we visit New York! The Empire State was a World War II industrial powerhouse that built a major percentage of the planes the Allies used to defeat Axis forces. New York is also a key contributor to the space domain. Whether considering it’s the home of 31 NASA astronauts, or the role Eastman Kodak Company played in developing many of the optics and film used for space reconnaissance systems. You can learn more about all of this by visiting places like the Cradle of Aviation Museum, American Airpower Museum, the Rochester Museum & Science Center, and more!
