Re barbecues: My dad (Italian) used to pour gasoline on the charcoal and then use a vacuum cleaner that was wired backwards to blow air onto the flames, often almost seting a tree on fire if we forgot to move the grill back. I was, like, in high school before I realized that you didn't need 20-ft fl...

Oh no - liquid nitrogen is definitely NOT for kids to use - or most adults, for that matter! It's what they use to freeze warts and scars at a dermatologist's office. Drop a rubber ball in it, and you can shatter it with a hammer! You also need a special container to keep it at the proper temperatur...

Well, as usual, I am late - it looks as if about 6 months too late for this thread! But I have read it with interest, being a science geek and all, as well as an educator. Des - it looks as if you have most of your science experiments set (and run) already. However, let me just say for the future, i...

LOL about almost getting left behind at Marshall! I remember that area well. I didn't get left behind, but I remember on one tour they told us how much money was spent on the interior design of the space station - including the psychology of the wall / floor / ceiling colors. Now, let me preface thi...

Jason, I am in 100% agreement with you! I think there are probably more trainees than are obvious who might benefit from such a vehicle. Even when I am finally out of my cast, I will never have the stability in that leg that I previously had, and I had trouble in the first place with high steps due ...

After reading Vincent's latest update on the MSFC tours possibly coming back provided that the ADA is met, I wonder if they would consider a supplementary van as a way of meeting the requirements. Rehabbing a bus would be very costly (you'd need a lift as well as seating capability), as would buying...

At various times, we have sat around and dissected the movie for fun!!! (Not to be mean, just for fun.) I think Rich's list got to be in the 100s. Some of my favorites - when Andie is a little girl watching John Glenn's flight, she watches Friendship 7 shoot across the sky at night ... and he launch...

Oh gosh - I went with an organized tour group out of a travel agency. We came in at night, so the first thing I remember is seeing the Saturn I. It was easy to see because Space Camp was the Bubble (Hab 2) back then - there was no Training Center built yet. I know I felt very excited because I was f...

Great blog, Lisa!
And I am SO GLAD I was not around when that lady ate the food off of the floor. Incredible YUCK!!! LOL about all of the airline stories here. My only story for this trip was having to call a SECOND Space Camp van because the one that was supposed to get me had already left by the time I got down to ...

I know nothing!!!
I know nothing about Enterprise Team! I'll deny EVERYTHING!!! - Oh wait - it's in my signature, isn't it... Hey Rich - You are missing at least 3 patches that I can tell - the horizontal rectangular blue one, MY PATCH, and the last triangular ET patch. Those are the last three ET sessions, I think. ...
