HAMPTON, Va. — For the first time in more than five years, NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton opened its doors to the public.
On Saturday, NASA welcomed the public to visit the center and learn more about the aerospace research underway.
Attendees had a chance to "embark on a journey through historic buildings and brand new laboratories" during the open house, officials said.
Some of the facilities on display included those used for space exploration, aviation and studying the impacts of climate change. There were also hands on activities designed for kids available to families in attendance.
