Frequently Asked Questions

How can new space workers be added to the site?

There is already an entry for me (or someone I personally know) on the site, how can I take ownership and make edits to it?

A registered user can request ownership of a pre-existing entry by logging into the site, navigating to that worker’s page, clicking the CLAIM THIS PAGE button, and filling out the form that pops up.

How will my personal account information be used?

Why is my information already in the Space Worker Hall of Honor if I didn’t add it myself?

The site began with an initial batch of space worker data taken from information previously collected by the American Space Museum, either through membership signup or the purchase of Space View Park memorial engravings. There is also the chance that you were added by a family member or friend.
