The Exploration Awards

Apollo astronaut Harrison Schmitt receives the 2015 Leif Erikson Award from Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson, President of Iceland.

The Leif Erikson Exploration Awards are awarded annually by The Exploration Museum in three categories: The Leif Erikson Exploration Award for a recent or a lifetime achievement in the field of exploration, the Leif Erikson Young Explorer Award for great achievements in exploration by a person under the age of 30, and the Leif Erikson Exploration History Award, awarded to a person or an organization that has worked to promote and preserve exploration history.
