On my way back home from vacation today me and my familly had a chance to visit the Cosmodrome in Hutchinson, Kansas. (http://www.cosmo.org/)
And what a surprise; not only was Andrew Chaikin there signing books today but they had a wealth of artifacts.
Not only did they have the original capsule from Apollo 13, but also the original "Liberty Bell', as well as the Gemini-10 Capsule and a full size model of the LEM and Space Shuttle.
The also had a enormous variety of Russian space-craft that I was not as familiar with.
If you are ever in the neigbourhood of Hutchinson, Kansas check it out !
Charlie Duke is going to be there in July signing autographs and I'll definatively will be there ( only a 7 hour drive for me).

I see you found Liberty Bell 7 there. My father designed it's exhibit and installed the lights inside the spacecraft. I also got the chance to test out the various activities and even sat in the capsule. Glad to see it's still nice and clean!
