Udvar-Hazy.

Total and utter bull***t.

How on earth can you rank Pima's space collection higher than the NASM's Mall building collection or ANY of the NASA facilities and expect to retain an ounce of credibility?

No disrespect to Pima, it is a superb aviation museum, but the number 2 space collection in the US? Come on!

Quote:
The TripAdvisor space-themed attractions are based on the quality and quantity of reviews for space museums, planetariums, and space centers. Attractions bearing space-related keywords in their name and/or reviews were considered.

The rankings are per trip adviser reviews only and not per any other ranking source so it's findings are bias and lack any real substance or credibility. I personally have done quite a bit of business in the past with the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama and even though nothing against The Pima museum, Huntsville is hands down much more of a Space-themed attraction than Pima IMO yet ranked #9 on their list. Not sure about that.
