The International Air & Space Hall of Fame Gala was held recently at the San Diego Air & Space Museum.

The annual event raises proceeds for the museum’s education programs, which inspire future generations to pursue careers in aviation and space flight innovation, engineering and technology.

This year’s distinguished class included actor, philanthropist and space enthusiast William Shatner, Navy Cross recipient Royce Williams, Artemis astronaut Dr. Jessica Meir, American exploring aviator Robert DeLaurentis, and General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., a worldwide leader in unmanned aerial systems.

More than 350 supporters enjoyed the gala. The event also was attended by notable past International Air & Space Hall of Fame inductees. Dinner was provided by Continental Catering, and Event Technology Services provided the program’s audio and visual services.
