It's here.

You can closely capture 

the shocking moment when the rocket lifts off

You can complete

the rendezvous and docking of "China's space station" by hand.

You can also "fly" a fighter jet

and cross the canyon.

It not only records

the footprints of human space exploration

but also presents

the glory of 15 "firsts" in China's space industry.

This is the "Air and Space Castle Experience Museum" located in the East Park of the International Enterprise Culture Park, Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone. After careful construction, the important window that displays the culture of innovation and key high-tech industries of Beijing E-Town will soon be unveiled.

It is understood that the Air and Space Castle was built by Shang E-Town (Beijing) Science and Technology Culture Group. It focuses on the representative scientific research achievements in China's aerospace field, concentrates on the development history and brilliant achievements of the national aviation industry, and is a scene of comprehensive training on scientific and technological qualities, combining the functions of exhibition and display, science and innovation education, parent-child co-education, the organization of tournaments, and academic exchanges. Its completion is conducive to fostering the spirit of science among young people, and is of great significance in accelerating the formation of a strong spiritual impetus for the development of science and technology.

Entering from the east gate of the East Garden of the International Enterprise Culture Park, the blue sky, fallen yellow leaves, and the rippling lake create the perfect autumn scene in the garden. The opening of the Air and Space Castle will certainly add to the picture of autumn colors. On the south side of the lake, the Air and Space Castle blends in with the covered rockery, while the main building, which "soars to the sky", emits dazzling light under the autumn sunlight, making it very eye-catching from afar.

Walking through the blue-green-orange paved area and entering the castle, a Q version of an astronaut "warmly" welcomes visitors. The combination of indoor and outdoor is a clever presentation of the two themes of space and aviation.

The indoor exhibition area is divided into four major areas: an exhibition hall area, a film viewing area, a study area and a leisure area, in which there are displays of manned spacecraft, Long March series of rockets and other related content, as well as simulation experiences of rocket-launches and rendezvous and docking, and immersive experiences of airships and the C919. It is noteworthy that there are also waterfront, forest, coffee, and VIP reception areas. Therefore, while fulfilling the function of popular science education, it also provides leisure and entertainment options for visitors. According to staff, the indoor venue of the Air and Space Castle can accommodate up to 240 people, and the indoor and outdoor venues can accommodate up to 500 people.

The opening of the Air and Space Castle will undoubtedly enrich the supply of public culture in the region, vigorously promote the integration of science and technology and culture, and continuously enhance people's sense of cultural acquisition and happiness in Beijing E-Town.
