It's not everyone's thing. .
And in fact I didn't even do it!!!! :tongue:
But recently I was on a mission in texas
on a "free" day I managed to jump to the space center of houston
I think it's worthwhile, even because I was threatened by the president, posting some pictures... .

First of all, how a space shuttle engine works. . .

some photos of the inside of the shuttle
(That's not true... is a reconstruction or mockup as Americans call it, but it makes the idea)

like every mission you respect, it takes someone to control everything...
Here's the mission control room.

I would like to post the video (with the camera that planted me on the most beautiful :mad:) but it doesn't make it...
I'll try again. . .

the president approves!

p.s.: the next time you go without authorization I send you to siberia to wash the vostok!
:smile:
 
honored with the President's approval, I would point out that all this has had a cost...

Little note "pro-privacy". . .
in one of these materials you see me very well. . .
You pretend like nothing... I don't like to appear on the internet...
 
in the meantime I make some comments to the "gita" to houston
the space center, as far as we are concerned, was overall a disappointment.
we say that it is basically a theme playground.
It's great for kids and kids, it's also good to see some interesting things, some heirlooms or something.
but from a technical point of view the only interesting thing is the view of the control room and the saturn
in brackets, the control room knows about partially fake, since there was no one
According to the command salt expert there are 2 (but my personal idea is that there are 3...), of which one (the one visited) for the "soft" missions or for the control of satellites and probes, while the other for the real missions.
about the saturn, even here the speech is similar. beautiful impressive for shape and size, but technically needs insights that guides can not give. so in the end you find yourself looking at things that can be very interesting but that you cannot fully understand.
If you're in houston's side, I suggest you put us on the $20 needed to get in. Maybe it's a good t-bone.... that gives much more satisfaction!
