ITS TIME TO LEAVE THE CAPSULE

 

I like this old plastic Montaplex Apollo capsule and LEM. Its neat how it fits together so well.

I also liked this picture of a dusty section of the capsule tucked into a lonely Spanish cellar corner!

Have you any dusty parts lost but not forgotten?

Images from El Kiosko de Akeja.

  2. What always amazed me, even as a kid, was how big the LEM was. Even though these models are rough scale, you can see its a huge thing to send a quarter of a million miles, land on the moon and take off again.

    Shows how clever those people from NASA actually were.

    1. It is incredible what they achieved in the Sixties I agree.

  4. Yes, love those toy replicas of iconic spacecraft - the simplicity of detail was very intriguing.
