Press Release
The Massachusetts Air and Space Museum (MASM) has greatly enjoyed almost 4 years in Hyannis providing a museum to the public which focuses on contributions and dedication to aviation and space history in Massachusetts.
Unfortunately, it has become necessary to close this location after Labor Day on September 2, 2024. Since its inception, MASM has showcased the aviation and space related accomplishments of Massachusetts individuals and organizations. The exhibits range from honoring people such as Worcester native Robert Goddard (the father of modern rocketry), Belmont resident Anne Baddour (first woman pilot to fly as an experimental research pilot for MIT), and Plymouth entrepreneur Michael Goulian (aerobatic national champion and Red Bull racer).
In addition, MASM has recognized contributions from Lynn, Mass GE Aerospace (jet engines), Worcester’s David Clark Company (headsets and space suits), and Bedford, MIT Lincoln Laboratory (Mode S radar and satellite technology). MASM also has two state-of-the-art flight simulators in which visitors may experience takeoffs, landings, and flying around Cape Cod.
MASM will continue to have exhibits at the Cape Cod Gateway Airport and Bridgewater State University as we search for a more permanent location. MASM thanks all the museum patrons and supporters who have visited over the past four years.
Please continue to visit our website – massairspace.org for updates as we move forward.
MASM’s business office will remain at 200 Hanscom Drive, Suite 314, Bedford, MA 01730.
Again, thank you, and we sincerely appreciate your continued support.
