Highlights include the Above and Beyond Exhibit, which explores how innovation has impacted aviation; the Destiny Module Exhibit, which is a replica of the main research lab of the International Space Station; and a large section of a fuselage, which enables visitors to get an up-close view of what the structure of a plane looks like. Other exhibits highlight Boeing's efforts in developing technologies in submarines, autonomous aerial systems, personal flight aircraft, satellites, and alternative fuels. The museum also features a cafe and gift shop. Boeing took over the museum in 2018, which up until that point was run by an organization called the Institute of Flight.
