USS Hornet Museum

USS Hornet Museum

The USS Hornet Museum is a museum in Alameda, California, USA

It is composed of the USS|Hornet|CV-12 aircraft carrier, exhibits from the NASA Apollo moon exploration missions, and several retired aircraft.

It is located on the Southernmost pier of the former Alameda Point NAS, though there are plans to relocate it to the corner of the Seaplane Lagoon closest to the Alameda Point Museum in conjunction with a ferry terminal and a light rail or bus connection to BART
