NEED A SPACE PART FOR YOUR ROCKET?
This is possibly one of the coolest places in Los Angeles. It’s the home of Space Age Junk and Modern Collectibles. Serious rocketeers, NASA engineers, and Hollywood set designers come here for inspiration and surplus rocket parts.
ROCKET LAUNCHES FROM AN OLD OIL PLATFORM

Or when the rocket blows up and destroys a multimillion dollar communications satellite
X PRIZE: MAKING HISTORY
The success of this mission unlocked new possibilities for humankind’s exploration of outer space.
