Adam Savage visits the Space and Rocket Center and gets a private, up-close tour of the center's hardware archives, which are much more extensive than I realized:

Great link, I knew he was a big NASA fan.
Cool that the guy with the copy of the A7-series Apollo EVA suit is on that blog, I'd been following the build of that suit here:

Always wanted to take a look inside the archives. I'm sure there's many more treasures in there!

Did you notice some of the things in this thread?

that got into the collection!

Oh yeah, love the Moonraker stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if they have more space movie props laying around. I know they also have the XRV lifting body model from the movie "Marooned" hanging in one of the stairwells of the old museum.
