Ever been to the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama? There's a complete Saturn 5 on the ground. You can walk its length and take in each part of it.

I was such a space geek that the biggest thrill of all my childhood birthdays was having Armstrong and Aldrin set foot there on my eleventh. Even stared hours at those silly simulations.

I was 14 and my brother was nine. We were glued to CBS for many days starting on 16 July 1969 which is my brother's birthday.
