Frank O Gehry: California Aerospace Museum
The California Aerospace Museum is located in McClellan, California. Frank O Gehry built this building in February, 2007. Since then, 250,000 people world wide have visited. Is it because of the planes or rockets, or simply to see the magnificent structure only done by Frank O Gehry? It consists of two floors, all big enough to store many F-15s and rockets. This museum has a cool collection of military planes and civilian aircrafts. Their biggest collection is from World War II. For the little ones, there is a ride simulator in a rocket ship. This is the only museum you will ever see that has a unique shape. This shape includes crazy structures and geometrical shapes. It also includes glass cylindrical bridges. This building will blow your mind!
