Space Museum Carnarvon

I must have forgotten or not known that Carnarvon was also involved with the moon walk.
It was very technical with lots of cabinets which was part of the computer system at the time. 
Quite a few short movies about the lead up to the moon walk.
Best part was we got to go into a simulator. It was a effort getting in and out as we had to climb in and then lay down with our legs in the air looking like  a dead beetle. 
 
This was what was in front of us and the count down, it did shudder a bit when it "took off", the whole thing took seven minutes inside the capsule, it was different.
