Our table at the Lunch with an Astronaut at KSC.

Best tour guide ever. Bus 4 lucked out! He is a real legend at KSC. As the chief of fire training, Hoggard and his crew worked closely with astronauts to teach them how to handle emergencies on the launch pad or on the ground following a problem. He's retired from that role and now shares his vast treasure trove of stories and knowledge with visitors.

 

Here's a great article about him: 1.usa.gov/p8dT8d

Apparently I hit the shutter on the way out of the bus.

The Shuttle launch is so loud it killed this guy! No, not really. But I did find this on the lawn right in the press area. Lots of wildlife at KSC.

I can't remember the scale of this model; it's possible it's 1:1, but maybe someone will correct me in the comments.

I'd really like a desk like that with 5 monitors.

our tour guide tells us that we're about to see things the public is not allowed to see. Sweet!
