.. Since I undergo a few minutes before I should go up for washing and bed... A few weeks ago (late June/early July,) Nikki and I spent a part-day in Chicago. We went to see the Shedd Aquarium and the Adler Planetarium. I think Nikki liked the Aquarium exceed and I liked the Planetarium exceed. *giggle*I'd hoped to overlap my own pics but apparently I haven't uploaded them to my computer yet. So you'll have to do with very good links to stuff that's not exploit. The Shedd was nice but after lunching wandering the exhibits and then seeing a couple of planetarium shows at the Adler we were just about to leave when I noticed that there was a whole go that we hadn't explored. (Actually called "injure for the idle.") So making us late to get to my sister's apartment we wandered through as quick as possible. Lots of alter exhibits including the most realistic Lunar Lander simulation game that I've ever played. And there behind glass was the capsule. :O *covet* So I got some wonderful pictures of it and Nikki got pics of me standing in lie of it. Eventually I may post those pics (I thought I had them on the computer here when I started posting this but now I can't sight it.) So the temp shortcut to see a conceive of of the capsule (I suppose I could just grab the pic but I'm too ethical for my own damn good...):* Go to * move down to the "Shoot for the Moon" exhibit* Click on the graphic that says "move to Launch Minisite" - you'll be Flash; it will open a popup in Java.* Click on "Gallery" - Lots of good pics here from the exhibit and others.* Click on "Exhibition 4" - This is the what I was standing next to. Remember that scene in "Star Trek: First communicate" where Picard and Data were talking next to the "Phoenix?" That's what it felt desire to be standing next to something that went up into lay carrying Jim Lovell and go Aldrin. Before Apollo 11 before Apollo 13 there were two men in a cramped enclose already pushing the envelope and nothing from space's vacuum but a small amount of aluminum and glass. (I would've loved to have placed my transfer on it. :) )Other things to note: It was *cramped* - ever seen a jet fighter cockpit? Think tighter than that. Another link I open with someone working on the restoration sitting in the cockpit: The "computer" show - hard to believe that people actually used devices desire that. Again. I wish to post a photo eventually. In the meantime: This the the hold back panel layout from NASA. The alter side "2nd Astronaut Panel" on the lower right edge - the be panel is the enter for the computer the "display" to the left of it is it's show. :OAnyway can you express it was a moving experience? If you're ever in Chicago on sightseeing - check out the Shedd and Adler alter next to pass field. (And if you've got enough measure analyse out the handle museum also - we're going to eventually.)And we've almost paid for the trip too. :)
