National Air and Space Museum Accepts Air Racer Into National Collection at "Innovations in Flight" Event
The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum has accepted the Aero L-39C Albatros "American Spirit" jet racer into its national collection. The aircraft was donated by owner Ed Noel of the Noel Air Race Team (NART). Between 2002 and 2024, "American Spirit" achieved eight first-place finishes, nine top-five finishes and three closed-course speed records.
The aircraftflew in to the museum's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center during its popular "Innovations in Flight" event Saturday, June 13, where it was formally transferred to the museum. It will be displayed at the Udvar-Hazy Center later this summer.
"Acquiring 'American Spirit' will allow the museum to tell significant stories," said Jeremy Kinney, associate director for research and curatorial affairs at the museum. "It is a surplus Warsaw Pact trainer and foreign-built warbird enjoyed by many Americans in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It is also the most common example of a jet used for air racing competition, which has not been represented in the National Collection. Additionally, this specific L-39 has an exceptional and unsurpassed competition history."
The Aero L-39 Albatros, a high-performance jet trainer, was manufactured in Czechoslovakia by Aero Vodochody from 1971 to 1996. In the 1990s, many surplus L-39s were sold to private owners, especially in the United States, where they became popular for recreational flying and air racing. The L-39 became the primary aircraft used in the Jet Class of the National Championship Air Races following its introduction in 2002.
Ed Noel purchased "American Spirit" in 2007 and established NART, undertaking extensive modifications to optimize the aircraft for racing. These enhancements included aerodynamically refinements to the tail and wingtips, removal or replacement of heavy components with lightweight materials, and the addition of a water injection system. Altogether, these changes reduced the aircraft's weight by approximately 1,100 pounds. NART and "American Spirit" came to represent a benchmark for performance in air racing.
"It is the greatest recognition of an aircraft's contribution to flight, pilot's skills and the race team's efforts for 'American Spirit' to join the collection with the Wright brothers' Flyer," Noel said. "I view this event with the same wonderment and excitement of my first visit to the Smithsonian at the age of 9 in 1962."
The Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center is located in Chantilly, Virginia, near Washington Dulles International Airport and is open every day except Dec. 25 from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Admission is free, timed-entry passes are not required for regular indoor visitation and parking is $15. The National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., is located at Jefferson Drive between Fourth and Seventh streets S.W. and is open every day except Dec. 25 from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Admission is free, but timed-entry passes are required to visit.

Explore JPL to Take Place Oct. 10, 11
NASA's leading center for the robotic exploration of the universe is opening its doors for a two-day event. Tickets, available in late August, will go fast.
Celebrating its 90th anniversary this year, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory invites the public to its campus at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California for an open-house event, Explore JPL. On Oct. 10 and 11, from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. PDT, visitors will getthe chance to visit JPL's most iconic facilities and explore four thematic areas: Missions That Changed the World, Moon to Mars, In Flight, and Makerspace.
Tickets are free but very limited and have gone quickly for past Explore JPL events. They will be available on the Explore JPL webpage at 9 a.m. PDT Sunday, Aug. 29, and will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, with a maximum of five tickets per requestor. Orders for more than five tickets may be subject to cancellation. Tickets will be provided for specific time slots and must be reserved for specific names. Attendees will not be admitted to JPL before the designated time printed on their ticket.
A division of Caltech in Pasadena, California, JPL traces its origins to rocket-propulsion development in 1936. By 1958, the lab had built and helped launch America's first satellite, Explorer 1. That same year, Congress established NASA, and JPL became a part of the agency. Since then, JPL has managed such historic missions as Voyager, Galileo, Cassini, the Mars Exploration Rover program, the Perseverance Mars rover, Europa Clipper, and many more.
Among other highlights, Explore JPL guests will get to:
* Visit JPL's legendary Space Flight Operations Facility, a National Historic Landmark where engineers send commands and receive data from spacecraft billions of miles away.
* Discover the Spacecraft Assembly Facility and JPL Machine Shop, where precision spacecraft components are crafted.
* See the latest cutting-edge innovations in robotics research, from autonomous lunar rovers to search-and-rescue robots.
* Get up close with full-scale models of the Mars Perseverance rover, Voyager, and Galileo.
* Step inside the Microdevices Laboratory to see how miniature technologies developed there are shaping the future of space exploration and Earth science.
To attend Explore JPL, visitors must have their tickets in hand and anyone age 18 or over must show government-issued identification. Tickets are not transferable and cannot be sold. Children under age 2 do not require a ticket, but experiences at the event are not intended for very young guests.
Visitors may not bring these items to JPL: weapons or explosives of any kind, incendiary devices, glass containers, alcohol, cannabis or illegal drugs, pets (except certified service animals), banners or signs, flags, boom boxes, air horns, musical instruments, and professional camera equipment with detachable telephoto lenses.

Cooper Hewitt Unveils Permanent Collection Galleries Showcasing a Multi-Year Presentation of the National Design Collection
This summer, Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum will unveil its permanent collection galleries with a landmark presentation, "Design Across Time: Exploring the Smithsonian's Design Collection." Opening Friday, June 26, and on view for an extended, two-year display, "Design Across Time" will showcase a selection drawn from the national design collection of CooperHewitt, the New York City-based Smithsonian museum entirely devoted to design. Installed throughout the first floor of the museum's Carnegie Mansion, the exhibition provides visitors with a new thematic take on one of the most diverse and comprehensive design collections in the world.
"Cooper Hewitt holds the nation's design collection, a public resource that belongs to all and that, as is common across museums worldwide, is largely kept in storage," said Maria Nicanor, director of the museum. "Expanding access for all to this rich repository of ideas--at a time when creativity and design can help us navigate uncertainty and complexity--is urgent and inspired the idea to bring this selection into view for an extended period."
The multi-year installation of the permanent collection, which will feature rotations of objects throughout its duration, brings together more than 125 works across multiple design disciplines including product and graphic design, fashion, textiles, digital design, wallcoverings and architecture. "Design Across Time" will include significant works newly brought out of storage, recent acquisitions on public display for the first time and canonical objects of American and global design history.
The dynamic installation is designed by JA Projects with graphic design by Pacific. From an introductory concentration of objects anchored in the central gallery, the exhibition extends through two dramatic axis vitrines that cut across the sequence of first-floor galleries. Combining a rich palette of textures from traditional and contemporary materials and leaning heavily on a graphic system of timeless collection object silhouettes, the display escapes traditional chronological readings. Instead, the presentation provides thematic groupings of a global collection that spans geographies, materials and time periods, ranging from an ancient Egyptian lotus-shaped cup to the recently acquired Toots Zynsky vessel, Aurifero II (2023).
The exhibition is rooted in the idea that design is everywhere, that it serves a civic purpose and that from objects to larger systems, everyone is an expert user and active participant of the built environment.
Organized in six thematic clusters, the exhibition further explores some of the many approaches involved in the creative process and often utilized by designers, including actions like Repeat, Transform, Show Off, Simplify, Tweak and Play.
The works on view in each section include:
* In Repeat, Vlisco's Style Stiletto textile (2011) demonstrates repetition as a key aesthetic feature of pattern design.
* In Transform, Stephen Burks' Roping Stool (2017) made from rope and upholstery trimmings from production waste reflects creative new applications for common or discarded materials.
* In Show Off, the Royal jewel cabinet (1825-26), a gift from Charles X of France to Francis I of Naples in 1830, showcases technical innovation, masterful craftsmanship and artistic vision.
* In Simplify, Art Sims' 1992 film poster for Spike Lee's biographical film Malcolm X focuses on the single letter "X," removing color and increasing scale to achieve bold impact.
* In Tweak, a rarely seen drawing of chalice designs by Giuseppe Barberi from the late 18th century reveals how most designs are the results of small iterative changes.
* In Play, the Bungee digital typeface (2011-16) invites users to play and personalize text by integrating elements of urban signage such as color, outlines, banners and background shapes.
* Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg's "The Substitute," an immersive video and sound installation that digitally resurrects the extinct male Northern white rhino using artificial intelligence and state-of-the-art visual effects, will be on view on the second floor as a featured selection from Cooper Hewitt's Digital collection, which collects born-digital design.
Throughout the span of the exhibition, Cooper Hewitt will offer an extended lineup of talks, panels and hands-on workshops by leading designers and cultural leaders, from deep dives into the exhibition's themes to an analysis of cultural stewardship and what it means to preserve and interpret national museums and collections around the world.
In the coming months, Cooper Hewitt will also launch a redesigned online collections platform, among the first public-facing AI-integrated experiences at the Smithsonian. Designed by Champions Design, with digital strategy, UX and development by Schema Design, the new platform will allow visitors to explore the depth of the Cooper Hewitt collection through new and playful storytelling threads that will provide access to the museum's collection of over 215,000 objects beyond the gallery walls.
Accessibility
Cooper Hewitt is committed to the accessibility of its spaces and materials. Image descriptions of objects on view are available on the exhibition's accessibility webpage and in person in the Large Print Label booklet. Large-print labels and other sensory materials will be available for use in the galleries. Compatible in-gallery digital interactives will have screen reader capability.
More information about accessibility at Cooper Hewitt is available on the museum's website.
Acknowledgments
"Design Across Time" is organized by Matilda McQuaid, acting curatorial director; Susan Brown, acting head of Textiles; Emily Orr, acting head of Product Design and Decorative Arts; and Julie Pastor, curatorial assistant, with the support of all members of the curatorial, exhibitions and director's office departments.

WASHINGTON, June 15 -- The Environmental Protection Agency issued the following news release:

EPA Proposes Cleanup Plan to Address Contamination on Properties at the Former Kil-Tone Co. Superfund Site Floodplain in Vineland, New Jersey
*
Vineland, N.J. \- U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing a cleanup plan to remove arsenic- and lead-contaminated soil from floodplain properties along the Tarkiln Branch in Vineland, New Jersey. The proposal calls for excavating contaminated soil, transporting it off-site for disposal, and restoring impacted properties. This will allowEPA to remove contamination from residential and commercial properties and protect human health while continuing its broader investigation of contaminated sediment, surface water, and groundwater connected to the former Kil-Tone Company pesticide manufacturing facility.
"EPA is taking action to protect Vineland families from arsenic and lead in soil," said EPA Regional Administrator Michael Martucci. "This proposed plan focuses on the properties where action is needed in the shorter term and builds on years of EPA continued work to address broader contamination from the former Kil-Tone facility."
EPA has identified approximately 55 floodplain properties with arsenic and lead in soil at levels that require cleanup. Any cleanup done on private property will be done after permission is obtained from the owner, and it will be carried out in coordination with the owner. Under the proposed plan, EPA would excavate contaminated soil to a depth of 2 feet or less in most areas and dispose of it off site. Under the proposal, all impacted properties will be restored. EPA may put additional protections, such as deed notices or physical barriers, in place to prevent exposure and keep the cleanup protective in the long-term.
The former Kil-Tone Company operated a pesticide manufacturing facility at 527 East Chestnut Avenue in Vineland from the late 1910s to the early 1930s. Those operations released arsenic and lead, contaminating the former facility, nearby properties and downstream areas along the Tarkiln Branch. EPA added the site to the National Priorities List in 2016 and has since completed cleanup work at 85 nearby residential properties, with additional cleanup continuing at the former facility and nearby non-residential properties. This proposed plan would allow EPA to move ahead more quickly on floodplain properties while other site investigations continue.
EPA is accepting public comments on the proposed plan for 30 days, beginning June 11 and ending July 13. The public may submit written comments to Dan Patal, Remedial Project Manager, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 290 Broadway, 18 th floor, New York, NY 10007 or by email to Patel.Dushyant@epa.gov.
EPA will hold a public meeting on June 17, 2026, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. to provide an overview of the cleanup proposal and answer community questions. The meeting will be held at Gloria Sabater Elementary School Gymnasium, 301 S. East Boulevard, Vineland, New Jersey 08360.
The proposed plan and supporting documents will be available on the Kil-Tone Superfund site profile page.
Background
Since the 1970s, EPA has worked alongside partners at the federal, state, Tribal, and local levels to protect children's health and make progress in reducing lead exposures and lead-related health risks. Despite improvements over the last 50 years, ongoing exposures to lead where our families live, work, and play present a health risk, especially to children.
To combat this issue, in 2025 the Trump EPA reestablished a committee of senior leaders across the agency's program offices and ten regions to drive success in reducing children's exposure to lead. This renewed agency-wide focus is centered around strengthening cooperative federalism, streamlining actionable risk communications, and unleashing private sector innovation to protect human health and the environment.

EPA Begins Cleanup Project at Torch Lake in Michigan's Upper Peninsula
*
CHICAGO (June 15, 2026) - U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has started a $12 million cleanup at the Lake Linden Recreation Area in Lake Linden, Michigan. Crews will remove about 13,300 cubic yards of sediment contaminated with lead, zinc, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
While the Lake Linden campground and marina will remain open during the cleanup, there will be no access to the beach area in 2026. Boaters areadvised to stay clear of equipment in the water.
After removing the contaminated sediment, workers will restore dredged areas with clean backfill material and sand.
The project is funded by the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative and Honeywell International Inc., the non-federal project partner of the Great Lakes Legacy Act cost-sharing agreement. EPA and Honeywell will also assess cleanup options for a future project in the Hubbell Processing Area of Torch Lake.
The cleanup is part of EPA's ongoing effort to address contamination in the Torch Lake Area of Concern, one of 23 areas in the United States with significant environmental degradation identified under the 1987 Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement. Copper mining in the region began during the 1840s and continued until 1968. These activities left 200 million tons of waste material-known as stamp sands-within the lakebed of Torch Lake.
As cleanup work is completed and monitoring demonstrates sufficient environmental improvement at this and other remaining projects within the area of concern, restrictions, including fish- and wildlife-consumption advisories, will be reevaluated.
