コナ国際空港
A small museum, the Astronaut Ellison S. Onizuka Space Center, was located between the passenger terminals at the airport. Founded in 1991, the museum was named in honor of Kona-born Ellison Onizuka, who died in 1986 on the Space Shuttle Challenger. The displays included a sample of lunar soil, a space suit from Apollo 13, and personal items from Onizuka. An admission fee was charged. The center closed in March 2016. On January 8, 2017 the airport was renamed the Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport at Keāhole in his honor.
