Not much time to write just now, so here are a few more pictures…
Also, soon to come: I am preparing to start a new Apollo suit.
Yep, Thats the suit that Armstrong was in on the first Lunar EVA!

Just this past week I had the honor and privilege of a visit to the National Air and Space Museum’s Space Suit Storage Facility. I received an invite a couple of months ago after requesting some research materials for a suit I was working on.
Just in case you are not familiar with it, this is where NASM keeps its collection of space suits that are not on display, including most of the actual suits that went to the moon.
Not wanting to keep this to myself, I thought about which of my friends would most enjoy accompanying me on this trip. I quickly realised that person was also the friend who was farthest away.
After many emails, reservations where made, flights booked and the seven hour drive was plotted from my house to Washington D.C.
I wont go in to detail in this post… instead I’ll leave you with some pictures.
Next time some of the more interesting points of the adventure.
