At Space Center Houston, we believe that curiosity has no limits and that access to the wonders of space should be just as boundless. That’s why we’re proud to introduce the Community Membership Program. 

This program represents a bold step forward in our mission to reveal how science and humanity power space exploration. Through the new Community Memberships, individuals and families in the Houston area who receive government assistance—such as WIC or SNAP—can now experience the excitement and inspiration of Space Center Houston at a significantly reduced cost. Discounts are aligned with the level of government benefits received, ensuring accessibility where it’s needed most. 

This program is made possible through the generosity of our Discovery Circle Members. Each Discovery Circle membership contributes approximately $58 to fund discounted Community Memberships, turning one family’s donation into another’s opportunity. Thanks to the Discovery Circle, more individuals can access meaningful experiences that inspire curiosity, learning, and growth. 

These memberships are more than just access to our center. They’re an invitation to explore, to learn, and to imagine what’s possible. Whether it’s standing beneath a towering rocket or hearing the stories of real astronauts, every moment can spark something extraordinary. 

Enrollment is currently available on-site or through direct contact with our dedicated Membership Department. Future plans include offering access through a meaningful collaboration with Harris County Public Libraries as well as social service providers throughout the Houston metropolitan region. 

Together, we are breaking down barriers and building up futures, one membership at a time.
