HUNTSVILLE AMERICA’S SPACE CAPITAL
Huntsville was still a cotton market town of 16,437 people in 1950 when U.S. Sen. John Sparkman (who lived in Huntsville’s historic Twickenham neighborhood) brought a band of German rocket scientists to Redstone Arsenal to develop rockets for the U.S. Army. By the end of the decade, Wernher von Braun’s team had developed the rocket which orbited America’s first satellite. They eventually put the first American in space and transported the first astronauts to the Moon.

Redstone Arsenal is one of the U.S. Army’s most important strategic posts. It is responsible for research, development, production and worldwide support of missiles, aviation, rockets and related programs. The influx of engineers, scientists and other technical specialists has transformed the small town into a cosmopolitan community which nonetheless maintains its heritage and reputation for hospitality. Visit the Redstone Arsenal website for more information on its history. The Huntsville area remains one of the South’s fastest-growing. More than 350,000 people live in Madison County.

A legacy of the space program which benefits visitors is the renowned U.S. Space & Rocket Center. Guests can experience astronaut-training activities, feel simulated weightlessness and view large-screen movies filmed by astronauts in space. The Center’s U.S. Space Camp attracts young people from throughout the world who spend a week experiencing space flight training and participate in mock space missions. It was Von Braun himself who inspired Space Camp. He suggested that the space museum develop an intensive youth science program to stimulate children’s interest in math and science. Guided bus tours of the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center take visitors through large hangar-sized buildings such as where engineers built the nation’s first permanent space station.

Adjacent to the space museum is the beautiful Huntsville Botanical Garden which features floral and aquatic gardens.Despite becoming the space capital of America, Huntsville maintains close contact with its past. The literal birthplace, “the big spring,” still flows from a rock bluff underneath the 1835 Regions Bank. It winds through a lushly landscaped park into a lake surrounded by scores of trees. A new three-story building to house the Huntsville Museum of Art has been built in Big Spring Park. Facing the park is the city’s civic and convention center named for the legendary German-born rocket scientist. The Von Braun Center contains an arena, exhibit hall, banquet hall, theater and meeting rooms. A variety of special events, ranging from tours of historic homes in the spring to brilliantly lighted Christmas festivals in December, fill the annual calendar of events.
