This scene from the highly popular 1995 film, Apollo 13, takes place moments after an oxygen tank exploded in the Service Module. The Guidance, Navigation, and Control ("GNC") Flight Controller warns Flight Director Gene Kranz (played by Ed Harris) that the spacecraft may rotate into “gimbal lock.”
"Gimbal lock" would align two or more gyroscope gimbals and then flip them out of position. The crew would then have to perform the difficult task of realigning the gyro platform using the space sextant, telescope, and computer keyboard you see in this display case. Of note, portions of this unit actually flew on the dramatic Apollo 13 mission in 1970.
Portions of this Primary Guidance, Navigation, and Control System (PGNCS) (pronounced "pings") unit also flew on Apollo 14, 15, 16, as well the three manned Skylab space station missions. The telescope and sextant you can actually look through were used by the astronauts traveling to the Moon on Apollo 14 and 16.
Because of a recall of beryllium metals throughout the government in the 1970s and 1980s for critical defense needs, the existence of a complete Apollo PGNCS, like this, is rare. This is one of only two complete units known to exist. The other is at the Draper Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Built in 1890 as part of Bucharest's fortifications belt, it later housed those opposed to the communist ideology (1921-1964) "On arrival in Jilava prison, detainees were forced to go through a "tunnel" formed by guards seated in two rows and armed with bats, tails axes and spades, brooms, comes ox and batons" As with most prisons, like Doftana it has a very horrific history.

...to 15 days straight on the road.
Within those two weeks this guy dealt with: 4 flat tires, 2 stuck trucks, 1 van stuck in 2nd gear, a permit that was pulled after 3 months of negotiation, 1 car accident, a trip to urgent care, and then another one.
The list continues but those are the highlights.
Oh! And a cattle stampede.
I'm so glad I don't have his job.
P.S. Film was exposed to 100 degree weather and 12% humidity. Then a week later 90 degree weather and 100% humidity. Film's version of an emotional roller coaster.
