Saturday,
May 14, 2016: Mark and Paula visited Wapakoneta, Ohio, were they toured a space museum.
|
It's the story of Neil
Armstrong, a U.S. Navy Korean War fighter pilot, who later was the first man to
set foot on the moon. |
|
One exhibit explains the
difficulty of landing a spaceship on the moon. Lots of instruments
to watch and adjustments to make. |
|
Mark tried the simulator and did OK.
Not bad for a non-pilot. He was somewhat prepared after attending
Space Camp for adults about 25 years earlier. |
|
The iconic moonscape photo of the first man on the
moon. |
Paula was "lost in space." |
Museum visitors were cautioned to learn and know
the difference between men's and ladies rooms! It took Mark a while, but he finally got it figured out. |
Quote of the day: Space, the final frontier. Mark | < Back to previous story | Ahead to next story > |
