The age of rigid and
The age of rigid and semi-rigid airships like the famous Hindenburg was a brief but exciting time, as the impressive ships promised to be part of a technological revolution. In the late 1920s the US began testing their use as flying aircraft carriers, able to launch and recover planes from the air. This led to the construction of two airships: the USS Akron and its sister, USS Macon, among the largest airships ever built.

The history of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the United States are intertwined. NOAA’s roots date back to 1807, when Thomas Jefferson established the nation’s first scientific agency, the Survey of the Coast. Since then, NOAA has evolved to meet the needs of a changing country. NOAA maintains a presence in every state and has emerged as an international leader on scientific and environmental matters.
The Treasures of NOAA’s Ark traveling exhibit showcases an array of heritage artifacts which tell the story of how the people, technology and resources shaped NOAA and its predecessor agencies over the past two decades. NOAA’s responsibilities include preserving, protecting and promoting its own heritage while at the same time sharing this history with the public through innovative programs.
Through partnering with public institutions, the exhibit increases awareness about NOAA and provides examples of how the agency has impacted the everyday lives of citizens from coast to coast.
