The nation’s only congressionally chartered museum in its field and an intriguing place to learn the story of the Atomic Age,
from early research of nuclear development through today’s peaceful uses of nuclear technology.
On Saturday, February 12th, the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History invites families to the museum to explore STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) through experimentation and engaging, hands-on activities directed by local engineers, physicists, and technicians.
The Einstein Gala is New Mexico’s biggest science party of the year! This prestigious black-tie event is the Museum’s most important fundraising event, and in 2022, it will be held at the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History! Starting at 5:30 pm on Saturday, March 26th, the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History staff and Board of Trustees invite you to explore our amazing silent auction - where mobile bidding is available - filled with the most unique items in Albuquerque, join us as we honor our National Award honoree for her contributions within the nuclear world, and experience entertainment featuring science experiments that will knock your socks off!
