A NASA field centre at Huntsville, Alabama, established in 1960, where the series of Saturn rockets and the space shuttle engines were developed. The Center’s capabilities and experience are essential to nearly every facet of NASA’s mission of exploration and discovery. It also manages (or has managed) missions, such as the International Space Station, Cassini, the Curiosity rover, the Hubble Space Telescope, Juno, and New Horizons, among others. It also manages propulsion for the space shuttle and various payloads, including microgravity experiments. The Destiny science laboratory for the International Space Station was built by the Boeing Company using the centre's facilities.

The centre's first director was German rocket engineer Wernher von Braun.
