Amelia Earhart Hangar Museum

The centerpiece of the state-of-the-art museum is Muriel — the world’s last remaining Lockheed Electra 10-E aircraft. Named after Earhart’s younger sister, , Muriel is identical to the plane Earhart flew on her final, fateful flight around the world. Surrounding Muriel are 14 interactive STEM and history storytelling exhibit areas that take visitors on an engaging and educational journey through Earhart’s life — from her growing up in Atchison, Kan., to the height of her worldwide fame.
