I bought space food and magnets.
There are 4 types of space food: 3 flavors of ice cream and dried strawberry.
It was about 8 dollars.
I thought it would be nice if there were more types.
I purchased the magnet shown in the photo. It was about 12 dollars.

Ordered a Christmas present we found that WRC were so excited about. When it didn’t arrive 6 days before Christmas I started to track it. The next day I found out the order was “lost”and had y been sent out. Now I was told that it couldn’t be sent because even though we paid for express shipping in the first place. There was a deadline for shipping by UPS and they don’t ship on Friday afternoon, Saturday or Sunday. Tough luck. Here the order was at UPS (or FedEx can’t remember which) at company than can ship in 24 hours with trucks going everywhere. BUT the Smithsonian contract has NO weekend shipping with LIMITED daily deadlines like 3pm. ! They don’t tell you that when you order. They don’t look for your order. They don’t make any effort to get it to you. They will keep the money you paid and deliver it days after Christmas when the family is scattered and the Christmas pin is post Christmas. They will do it coldly with a too-bad--for -you attitude. Watch out, this company shouldn’t be doing retail. A museum with antiquated shipping policy and no customer service.

After receiving the Smithsonian magazine I ordered a beautiful Murano vase as a gift for someone. Murano glass isn’t cheap so imagine my surprise when this vase arrives wrapped in bubble wrap in a cardboard box. I was so surprised. I called the store and asked why the vase wasn’t in a gift box. The employee, who was really pretty rude, said they don’t do that. That’s insane. An expensive base and no gift box. I wouldn’t buy anything else from the store. Too bad because there were several other items I was considering buying ( and shipping) as gifts for people for Christmas.

I recently purchased the Mega Cyborg Hand kit, which the museum prices at $58, thirteen dollars more than the manufacturer, Thames and Kosmos, prices the same item for. Not only is the price 22% less if bought from the Thames and Kosmos website, Thames and Kosmos doesn’t charge for shipping!I realize that the Museum store may price items a bit higher than other retailers, but this is unmitigated greed.

Lots of great items and souvenirs, but most items are prohibitively expensive.

They had very cool space suits for kids and other swag.

Very nice gift shop. Select a replica NASA space suit, a print of the Spirit of St. Louis, or a tee shirt of the Tuskegee Airmen, or a book about World War II.
