My next free time project
Yeah, right like I’ll find free time 
. Well anyway I saw this over at boing boing and followed the link to the source at the Lower Hudson Valley Challenger Center which has a lot of other cool stuff. I can remember getting a kit back in the ’70s that was a model of the LEM from Apollo 11. I loved making models and was a diehard 1/35 WWII model maker. Making a model out of paper isn’t the easiest thing to do and I though it was pretty cool when I was 7. So I think this is something I might do with my kids although I don’t think that can relate to how new and exciting the whole moon landing thing was 40 years ago. In fact, I still think that from a shock and awe perspective nothing has ever exceeded watching the those Saturn 5 launches and waiting up untill midnight to watch Neil Armstrong walk on the moon with my parents in 1969. The only thing that has come close is watching it on IMAX. < Link>
