Huntsville Space & Rocket Center 1982

Here's a photo journal of one of my first visits to the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama in the early 80s. You can see it's the 80s by my Ocean Pacific shirt from L.A.
Click any pic to enlarge.


Front of the building. Sorry, no pictures of the IMAX Theatre.


A Russian space capsule.


Inside the lunar module.


Miss Baker, the astronaut monkey, lived in the Rocket Center for years.


Star Wars influence.


My brother Tom in the moon buggy.


X-15. Awesome.


The Rocket Yard in the back of the museum. It's a history of American missiles.


No caption needed...


Goodbye from the nozzle of the Saturn 5!

Phillies pitcher Tug McGraw took some time to write this kids' book back in 1983. It's the story of Lumpy the baseball, and his quest to be in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Will he make it?


 There's an Evatone Sound Sheet floppy record inside with a special welcome from Tug.
