Nerding out at NASA, Kubrick-style.

The last time I saw a Saturn V in person was at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida when I was eight years old. Decades later, it still inspires awe.

Speaking of Kubrick, this is the set they used to fake the Moon landing. Incredible realism decades before CGI.

Patches are cool. Always have been. Always will be.

Many know that the Space Shuttles were transported atop modified Boeing 747s. However, few know that the idea came from the cover art to Aerosmith’s 1989 album “Pump”.
