A replica of some mid-70's joint missions between the US and Soviet space programs. The green thing is the Soyuz and its equivalent of the service module.

The Apollo command and service modules on display are test vehicles. The docking module that joins the two spacecraft is back-up flight hardware, and the Soyuz spacecraft is a full-scale model built by Energia Design Bureau, the organization that originally built the Soyuz.

Visiting Paul & Rosemary, checking out the cherry trees and Basque and generally just enjoying spring.

Sunday we had talked about going to a concert at the Lincoln Memorial, but for various reasons decided to go to the National Air & Space Museum instead.

 

It's a great place and here's why. Paul decided to just let me wander which consisted of "Oh, look at that!" and heading off towards something until something else caught my eye and I did it again. In the process he saw things he hadn't seen before so it worked out pretty well. :)
