The Stafford Air & Space Museum is named in honor of Weatherford native and legendary test pilot and astronaut, Lt. General Thomas P. Stafford. The museum is considered one of the finest and most comprehensive air and space museums in the central United States and encompasses 75,000 sq. ft. of exhibits under one roof!
The Stafford Air & Space Museum proudly bears the name of Weatherford native and esteemed astronaut, Lt. General Thomas P. Stafford. Born on September 17, 1930, in Weatherford, Oklahoma, General Stafford’s journey from a small-town boy to a pioneering space explorer is a testament to human determination and ingenuity. His mother, who arrived in Oklahoma by covered wagon, witnessed her only child soar into space, embodying the spirit of exploration.
