If you like airplanes and/or history and/or the military, this extensive museum is a must-see. There are three hangars (fourth under construction) chock full of military aircraft, munitions and sensors, spacecraft and rockets, and displays with vignettes and personal stories and all sorts of background details. It's free (you pay for things like the IMAX films and flight simulators) and unless you've got some serious museum stamina, you'll want to break it up into a couple days to see everything.
