> so clearly from an era that from today's POV looks so archaic I managed to get maybe 45 minutes at the Smithsonian on a quick visit to DC 15+ years ago. Being able to go right up next to the actual capsules that some of the early astronauts had used and seeing the rivets didn't always exactly line up, or bundles of cables tied together with bits of string... It all looked a bit rickety. Those guys had giant balls to be strapped in to those rockets and hope for the best. |
