I have great memories of visiting the Space and Rocket center over the years while living there. Even got to meet Alan Shepard when I went to Space Camp.
I don't see the city letting it close though. Hell they raised enough money to save UAH's Hockey program. This will be easy compared to that.
And this is all over the place on social media already. Post after post from my friends back home about it.
Our corporate giving department said we've already given them 100k since COVID started, but are aware of their financial situation and are evaluating it
Huntsville both needs the Space and Rocket Center and should do whatever it takes to subsidize it during COVID. It's a huge boon for tourism, an excellent resource of children interested in STEM, and a big reason Huntsville is what it is today.
I think people will do right by it. It's earned almost $110k in two hours.
