What Are They Looking At?




Why are these people sitting in the dark, and what are they looking at?  Today, our astronomy club had a tour of The Cradle of Aviation.  It is an incredible museum and has aircraft that range from a Bleriot monoplane up to an F-14 Tomcat jet fighter.  They also have spacecraft.  These people are sitting in a darkened room, looking at one of the Grumman Lunar Excursion Modules which were built on Long Island, and took our astronauts to the moon.  It beautifully displayed in a room made up like the surface of the Moon.
