THAT’S ONE SMALL STEP FOR A MAN
ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND
JULY 20, 1969”
I don’t know why I think this, especially since I can’t find anything to support it, but I think Ms. Hopkins was secretary to at least one of the Apollo Astronauts. Specifically, Jim McDivitt.
Service Module fuel cell from the Apollo era. Apparently from an idea developed by a British engineer, Francis Bacon, and used by NASA to produce electricity and water.
With my love of NASA's space program and their accomplishments, I created this Apollo commemorative poster design as a final class assignment to show my Photoshop skills at the end of my first Photoshop class. I actually shopped the poster idea to NASA, but they showed no interest. © Mitch Ridder – All Rights Reserved 2012.

Here’s Apollo, my third Galaxy inspired Allan repaint and 32nd Allan doll overall in my collection. This Allan came with severe red stains on his face so I’ve been itching to try incorporating it into a custom so he’s sat around for awhile.
I guess I’m frustrated with this custom cuz it’s my first custom where a majority of it is done in chalk pastel, and it’s nearly impossible to get really bright and vibrant colours. I ended up using half a can of msc on this one doll which is ridiculous to me when I can get brighter colours using paint.
But, having a day to cool off and separate the doll from the ideal in my mind, he’s not a bad custom. In fact I’m really proud of how well the pastels blended together and how much more subtle this galaxy print looks.
His eye paint is very 90s inspired and I was hoping to invoke that feeling you get when you see Sailor Moon transform and her entire body is galaxies except for her eyes.

Promotional and inspirational letter sent by NASA to key subcontractor staff working on the Apollo program. Dated 17 March 1965, the letter is significant because it includes original signatures of all 30 Apollo astronauts. Two more recent signatures appear at the bottom including that of Frank Borman who happened to be at Pima Air and Space Museum the day the letter was donated.
Colonel Borman recounted that when the letters were generated, all of the astronauts were required to attend the signing, located in a conference room filled with tables piled high with stacks of letters and fresh pens. Only after the letters were signed were the astronauts allowed to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.

The hatch door from the Apollo 11 command module Columbia. NASA completely redesigned the hatch after the fatal Apollo 1 fire. To ensure a quick escape, astronauts could use the large pump handle on the left and open it from inside the capsule within seconds. This was one of the images on display at the St. Louis Science Center exhibit.

Century VI quatrain 33
His hand finally through the bloody ALUS,
He will be unable to protect himself by sea,
Between two rivers he will fear the military hand,
The black and angry one will make him repent of it.
I watched one of my favorite movies today, Apollo 13 and it served as a memory that I still had un-edited photos front the California Science Center.
I love NASA and the history of the space race as well as what the future (hopefully) holds for the American space program.
This is the interior of an actual Apollo capsule. This capsule was built for the Apollo 18 moon mission. Sadly the mission was canceled due to funding and this capsule flew as part of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. Can you imagine being confined with two other guys in this thing millions of miles from Earth?

Fuel cell of the type which exploded in Apollo 13's Service Module.
Apollo 13 was the third manned lunar-landing mission, part of Project Apollo under the NASA in the United States. It launched on April 11, 1970. Two days after the launch, the Apollo spacecraft was crippled by an explosion, causing the Service Module portion of the Apollo Command/Service Module to lose its oxygen and electrical power. The crew used the Lunar Module as a “lifeboat” in space. The command module systems remained functional, but were deactivated to preserve its capability to reenter Earth’s atmosphere upon return to the earth. The crew endured difficult conditions due to severe constraints on power, cabin heat, and potable water, but successfully returned to Earth.

Sanctuary of Apollo Hylates
About 2,5 kilometres west of the area of Kourion's ancient city stands the temple of Apollo “Hylates”. In it -being one of the main religious centers of ancient Cyprus.
Apollo was worshipped all over Cyprus, and dates back to the middle of the 8th century BC and until the end of the Roman times. Not only he was regarded a God of sea, shepherds, spiritual life, medicine and music, but also the protector of health and good luck.
The sanctuary of Apollo consists of two subterranean rock-hewn rooms, the one is rectangular the other one of a round shape, linked together via a rock-cut dromos (way), located in the eastern necropolis of Pafos. The sanctuary was made by the High Priest Tarvas for the God Apollo, according to a Cypriot syllabic inscription above the main entrance. In 4th century B.C., when Pafos was established, the sanctuary began its function as well.
The Sanctuary of Apollo "Hylates" provides an important illustration of the religious life in the region, from the pre-Hellenic to the Hellenic and Roman eras, a total of at least 1100 years.

The only Factory built Apollo with GM Corvette Engine
The Apollo GT was the brainchild of young Californian engineer Milt Brown who wanted to create an American car that could rival the European GT cars of the day. The car was designed by Hungarian engineer and immigrant Frank Reisner who, while on holiday in Turin, established a shop under the name of 'Intermeccanica'. By early 1963, a deal had been made and the first Apollo GT's went on production. The car's bodywork was produced in Turin by Intermeccanica and then shipped across the Atlantic to Oakland, California where Brown installed the drivetrain. The car was first styled by a friend of Milt Brown named Ron Plescia. However, the car's nose was thought to be too long and its rear-visibility too limited. Because of this, Reisner contracted former Bertone stylist Franco Scallion to revisit the design resulting in the current design.
Initially, Apollo's were sold only in two-seat configuration although a later 2+2 prototype was shown at the 1965 New York Auto Show. Brown's International Motorcars sold a total of 88 cars. Unfortunately, production of the car ended in mid-1964 due to a lack of financing.
This example was sold in 1965 and was likely built toward the end of the original round of Apollo production in California. Milt Brown remembers this car were well, as it was to be the transition from Buick 215 Alloy to Chevrolet power. They used the higher horsepower 327 Corvette motor (300 hp) which was a vast improvement over the small Buick motor. Just as the car was completed, Buick came out with their 300 cubic inch motor and the decision was made to continue with the Buick engines for the rest of the Apollos built, making this a unique car among a run of about 39 coupés built by the original company. Dr. Robert Turcios purchased this Chevrolet-powered Apollo in 1975 in Santa Rosa California. In 1976, Dr. Turcios was contacted by Walt Disney Productions, to rent the car to them for their new movie "Herbie goes to Monte Carlo". The car appeared in the movie driven by American Sports Car Legend Max Balchowsky. This one-off large displacement Italian bodied GT from the sixties, that has Milestone status, has been with the same marque specialist for over 40 years in California's dry climate.
