FS: Looking to sell some patches...

Sorry, didn't know where else to put this. I have a few of these I scored off ePay recently, they older Space Camp sold ones (they all are in the wrapper, marked as "US space camp" and advertising the other camps that no longer exist). They're pretty small, a little smaller than the NASA m...

I'm still ticked off because I was scheduled to go on a tour of Redstone when I was in the Army and I got picked for a TDY assignment somewhere else at the same and missed my chance. I worked with peiople from there all the time because I ran a large unit that worked on missiles (among all kinds of ...

I just wanna know for sure so if I have to sign up for the tour in addition to camp, I will have that in place already.

So has anyone yet confirmed that the tour will be part of space camp? If so, will it also be included in the weekend adult version?

I'll be darned, I never would have realized the highway was on the other side of the tracks, I just thought the highway would have been behind the photographer.
Thanks a lot! :D

Thanks! I assumed I'd be able to find this location once I got there, but it's always better to know ahead of time, as I had no way of knowing if the photographer had to walk a mile or so to get there (and trust me, there are plenty of train photographers who'll walk a lot further than that to get a...

Anyone know where the place is?

I'm a big train fan and while I'm in Huntsville, I want to get some local RR shots (I already know about the RR museum downtown and I'll be spending a day at the Tennessee Valley RR museum in Chattanooga before getting to Huntsville the night before I sign in for camp). I really want to know if anyo...

So what patches do the flight suits have now? I assume the shuttle patch is gone? I'd love to see photos of any of this. There's so little about the current types of missions at camp now that the shuttles are history, I'm hoping to see photos of what I'll be working with before I get there in 2 mont...

Such a shame Space Camp couldn't get those simulators. How cool would that have been! I disagree. This trainer was made for astronauts and was used accordingly. I'd think a few years of campers running around inside it would really mess up parts of it. No offense to the campers, it's just that even...

Shuttle trainer nose section in Seattle now...

I wentto Seattle to see the nose section of the space shuttle trainer that was delivered to the museum of flight from johnson space center (as they clearly don't need it anymore). I'd never seen one of the NASA "super guppy" transports in person before, it was amazing. Shuttle trainer nose...

Just got the shirt and one of the pins in the mail the other day. Good quality, will be tough not to be wearing this when I check in for camp this year! :wink:
Thanks for offering these up for people who might not make it there before they run out of these kinds of things in the gift shop...

Not sure if you are booked for a summer session or not, but Alabama summers are sweltering compared to Washington. Pure truth . I currently live between Seattle and Portland, but grew up in Florida, and I can attest that Alabama in the summer is like the surface of the sun that time of year comared...

Still havent' heard if they're part of camp now or not. Especially with adult camp which is only 3 days, would they take several hours out of that short timeframe? I wanna do the tour no matter what, just want to know so I can plan on adding a day at either end to do the tour as a walk-on and not as...

Once anyone knows for sure if the tour is a part of camp now, please post it here. Otherwise, I need to plan on doing the tour the day before I check into camp or the day I'm done.
