Apollo wasn't quite sure what to think of my running around and the camera that I had. This is him 'charging' me - he wasn't exactly angry but he wasn't just playing either.
Each Apollo spacecraft was equipped with two rucksacks filled with equipment to help the crew survive in the event of an emergency landing on earth. Rucksack #1 here includes three water containers, a radio beacon and spare battery, sunglasses, six packages of desalting chemicals, a seawater desalter kit, two survival lights, a machete and two bottles of sunscreen. This was one of the displays at the St. Louis Science Center exhibit.

The final Service module part is that big Service Propulsion System nozzle on the back. That's the rocket engine that slowed the Apollo spacecraft into lunar orbit, and later fired to get the astronauts home.
The carved pediments around the Academy of Arts display the gods of Olympia. In front of the buildings are seated sculptures of Plato and Socrates, and to the side of them, on tall Ionic columns, are the deities Athena and Apollo.
Here's a flight article (or advanced test article) of the Apollo lunar module, also known as the LEM (lunar excursion module). The LEM held 2 astronauts for up to 3 days on the lunar surface while the Apollo CSM (Command and Service Modules) orbited overhead with the third crewmember.

NASA really made its name known with its Apollo space missions. Its first, Apollo 1, ended in tragedy after an oxygen leak fueled a deadly fire that killed the mission's three astronauts during a training exercise. In the oxygen tanks is pure oxygen. This is incredibly flammable stuff and sadly, there was really nothing anyone could do once an electrical spark ignited the flames.
January 1967, Cape Kennedy, Florida, USA --- Apollo 1 astronauts, (L-R), Virgil Grissom, Edward White, and Roger Chaffee, suited up and visiting the Saturn launch pad. A few days later all three would be killed in an electrical fire in the command module during testing. --- Image by © Bettmann/CORBIS

"Houston, TX -- Apollo 11 LMP, Aldrin, has just deployed the passive seisometer as he will on the surface of the Moon. The instrument will relay seismic information back to Earth for up a year after the Apollo 11 astronauts return to Earth. Models of the LM can be seen in the background".

Happy dog! Playing in the backyard.
I actually got him to run a bit! He's getting more active now that the temperature is dropping.
The interior of the Apollo 14 command module "Kitty Hawk". It's a tight fit for a crew of three. Our astronauts will have to endure similar conditions when the shuttle retires, at least until their spacecraft docks to ISS or to the Altair lunar module.
