There's an adult space camp. That's about the extent of my knowledge though lol.

There's actually a family space camp, as well.

The opening of the Smithsonian Air & Space extension at Dulles really hurt the Space & Rocket Center, there's a lot of items on display at Dulles that used to be in Huntsville. Made my sister and I sick when we walked into the Dulles extension and realized we recognized a lot of stuff from our childhood.

I'd be willing to bet that the majority of the display is on loan. Museums often do that to bolster another big museum when they open. Sometimes it is on permanent loan, and the loaning museum is given some form of compensation for the loans.
