This Apollo Command module is identical to those used during the Apollo Program. This particular module was used to ferry the crew of the last Skylab mission who lived in the Skylab for 84 days, from Nov. 16, 1973 to Feb. 8, 1974.

Apollo is a 9-month old Scottish Highland / Herford cross. He became pretty buddy-buddy with the bull.
This Lunar Suit was worn by Apollo 15 commander David Scott in July 1971. This was the first mission to use a lunar roving vehicle.

You are now standing in one of the actual Apollo White Rooms, removed from Launch Pad-Complex 39 at the Kennedy Space Center, Florida. It was here- suspended more than 320 feet above the ground- that many historic and dramatic moments unfolded as astronaut crews prepared to be inserted into their Apollo spacecraft for launch. In this small, historic room, the "butterflies" were felt and final "goodbyes were made. For many, it was a room where reality set in as to what they were about to do, and the risk they were about to take.
The White Room was attached to a 60-foot long, cantilevered "swing arm" which was connected to the rocket gantry. About four hours before liftoff, the astronaut crews would walk across the swing arm and enter the White Room. The structure of the room partially wrapped around the entry hatch area of the spacecraft and sealed out the elements. After the astronauts were inserted into the Command Module, the main hatch was shut and locked. Just prior to launch, the White Room swung away from the spacecraft. The astronauts were now alone, sitting atop a 36-story skyscraper of a rocket with the explosive power of an atomic bomb.
This specific White Room was one of three used during the Apollo lunar program, and was later recycled for use during the Skylab and Apollo-Soyuz programs. Historical records no longer exist to indicate which specific astronaut crews said their "goodbyes" in this White Room, but it is likely that at least a third of the 14 Apollo crews that departed from Launch Pad-Complex 39 began their journey here, and stood exactly where you are standing now. Only one other Apollo White Room from Pad 39 still exists, and it is on display at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor's Center, Florida.

Sacrificing the Hasselblads
Along with the Moon rocks, some of the most precious cargo the astronauts returned from the lunar surface were the camera backs removed from their Hasselblad 70-mm cameras. Inside were some of the most famous and profound images ever recorded in history, each image giving photographic testimony to mankind's first exploration of another world.
To save weight and space for their return trip off the Moon, the astronauts discarded their Hasselblad cameras on the lunar surface, returning to Earth with only the camera backs. During the Apollo Program, these film canisters returned nearly 25,000 priceless photographic images, many of which have been forever etched in our collective memory
DISPLAYED HERE are actual Hasselblad film backs returned from each Apollo mission. These special canisters were built by Hasselblad specifically for NASA and each unit contained enough film for 200 exposures. Displayed with each canister are actual photographic images returned to Earth from these specific camera backs.

The Apollo Fountain
A fountain (the Swans Fountain) already existed her from 1636, under the reign of Louis XIII, which Louis XIV decorated with the impressive and celebrated group in gilded lead representing Apollo on his chariot. The work of Tuby, after a drawing by Le Brun, it is inspired by the legend of Apollo, the Sun gold and emblem of the king. Tuby produced this monumental group between 1668 and 1670 at the Manufacture des Gobelins, and it was then transported to Versailles and installed and gilded the following year.

Apollo and Daphne was completed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini in 1625, when he was only 27 years old.
It depicts the myth of the nymph Daphne escaping the advances of Apollo by transforming into a laurel tree.
The leaves are so fine that when struck with a tool, the marble makes a sound like crystal glass.
From Ovid's Metamorphoses:
"As Apollo relentlessly chases Daphne—boasting, pleading, and promising everything. When her strength is finally spent she prays to her father Peneus:
"Destroy the beauty that has injured me, or change the body that destroys my life." Before her prayer was ended, torpor seized on all her body, and a thin bark closed around her gentle bosom, and her hair became as moving leaves; her arms were changed to waving branches, and her active feet as clinging roots were fastened to the ground—her face was hidden with encircling leaves.
Even like this Apollo loved her and, placing his hand against the trunk, he felt her heart still quivering under the new bark. He clasped the branches as if they were parts of human arms, and kissed the wood. But even the wood shrank from his kisses, and the god said:
"Since you cannot be my bride, you must be my tree! Laurel, with you my hair will be wreathed, with you my lyre, with you my quiver. You will go with the Roman generals when joyful voices acclaim their triumph, and the Capitol witnesses their long processions. You will stand outside Augustus's doorposts, a faithful guardian, and keep watch over the crown of oak between them. And just as my head with its uncropped hair is always young, so you also will wear the beauty of undying leaves."

After test-fitting, I did some assembly on various Lunar Module Descent Stage detail parts. I attached the footpads to the legs, the ladder to one leg, and the handrails to the LM "porch." Then I painted all the doodads silver, as you see here.
