Goddard 1926 Liquid-Fueled Rocket Replica

Goddard 1926 Liquid-Fueled Rocket Replica

People who wanted to develop ways to explore space experimented with powerful liquid-fueled rockets in the 1920s and 1930s. America’s Robert Goddard led in this research, launching the first liquid fueled rocket in 1926. Those early experiments led to current and future space exploration. The museum’s talented volunteers built this full-size replica.
