Descrizione The Aircraft Carrier USS HORNET Museum is a national treasure, having participated in two of the greatest events of the 20th century -- World War II and the Apollo 11 manned space mission.

Now peacefully moored at historic Alameda Point on San Francisco Bay, the USS HORNET is a timeless memorial to those who defended our American values and to those who have pursued America's technological advancements.

1943 - The eighth Hornet (CV-12) was commissioned just 15 months after her keel was laid.

Hornet participated in World War II, the Vietnam War, and the first moon missions.

1991: USS Hornet (CVS-12) is designated a National Historic Landmark.
1998: Hornet opens to the public as an aircraft carrier museum in Alameda, California
1999: USS Hornet is designated a State Historic Landmark.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
It is composed of the USS Hornet (CV-12) aircraft carrier, exhibits from the NASA Apollo moon exploration missions, and several retired aircraft from the Second World War and the transonic and early supersonic jet propulsion period. A number of compartments contain exhibits concerning contemporary carriers that are supported by related associations. The flight deck, hangar deck, and first deck below are open for self-guided tours. Docent-led tours are available into the ship's navigation and flight deck control areas of the island and down into one of the engineering spaces containing two of the four ship's propulsion turbines.
