A museum dedicated to the history of aviation is landing at the airport where NASA astronaut training jets take off. The Lone Star Flight Museum is moving from Galveston to Ellington Field into a new 130,000-square-foot facility. Former NASA astronaut Bonnie Dunbar, who is co-chairing the museum’s education committee, took part in the ground breaking in Houston on Monday (Nov. 9), returning to the field where she flew on T-38 jets and the KC-135 “weightless wonder” for 24 years.
