The Columbia Memorial Space Center brings the wonder and excitement of science and innovation to visitors of all ages.

The Columbia Memorial Space Center is owned and operated by the City of Downey and was built on the site of the former NASA Downey facility. It is named the official national memorial to the Space Shuttle Columbia by a joint resolution of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives.
