The tour guides are so knowledgable and friendly ! I'm a local and I love going to the nuke museum . One of my fav places to go in AVQ!

Lynne Sturtevant

This is an interesting and unusual place. Lots of interactive exhibits . Loved the 50s and 60s comic books , movie ads, propaganda posters. Worth your time. Planes on display outside too.

Joe Page

Awesome tour...little resemblance to the old National Atomic Museum , but not a bad thing. Nuclear hardware graveyard out back is cool! Some exhibits seem anti nuke preachy, but whatever...

Alice Glass

Dragged my dad and my uncle here because I thought it looked cool - it exceeded my expectations! Make sure you allow a few hours, there is a LOT of information to absorb here.

Mark Sorrells

Very neat place to visit. Plan on at least 1/2 day. If you get a chance to talk to the retired military volunteers they have a lot to share.

Timothy Mathews

Knowledgeable friendly staff , tons to see. Fascinating videos and exhibits indoors and planes and rockets outdoors.

Melinda McCullough

The former museum site was used in the 2008 AMC television show Breaking Bad in a storyline as a drug drop area. It appeared in several scenes.

Voted best museum to buy gifts for kids in Albuquerque, NM. Which is saying something - Albuquerque has a lot of museums .
