-
On December 11th 2003, Nortel Networks Kidz
Online had the honor to be an invited guest to webcast the
dedication ceremony of the new Smithsonian Air and Space
Musuem. It is called the Steven Udvar-Hazy Center in honor of
its major donor, International Lease Finance Corp CEO, Steven
Udvar-Hazy. Invited guests and honorees at the dedication
ceremony included Vice President Dick Chaney, Chief Justice
William Rehnquist, John Travolta, Steven Udvar-Hazy, Neil
Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, John Glenn, and many other heroes in
air and space. The ceremony included a tribute by John Travolta
to the heroes who had contributed to the state of air and space
today, a message from the Space station astronauts, and a
dramatic curtain reveal of the musuem by a Wright replica
plane. This ceremony also gave guests the honor of seeing the
museum before it opened to the public.
