Space Camp - more pictures

Can you get enough of the Saturn V on display in immaculate condition. We also had to simulate with 13 people the launch of the space shuttle Atlantis from t - 9.00 minutes for a two hour mission that had us going to the international space station, releasing a satellite and having modifications to in in which four members of our team suited up in space suits and on cables experienced Zero gravity to conduct repairs. My role was in Mission Control with 5 other people and I was in the role of Capcom. Fantastic experience. They through problems at us during the mission and we had to look up these and work out and relay solution to the orbiter. Day 3 had us building rockets and also constructing insulation for re entry into the atmosphere in which our material had to protect an egg for 3 minutes.

Great time.
