NASA’s historic triumphs and pioneering legacy are well known to millions, but the inspiring rocket launches, moon landings and planetary explorations also have had an impact on the imaginations of America’s leading artists. As the space agency turns 50 this fall, the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) will launch a national tour of NASA | ART 50 Years of Exploration, featuring 72 works from those artists.

NASA | ART opens at the Huntsville Museum of Art on May 24. It will be on view there through August 16, and then travel to 10 museums around the country through 2011.
