  1. Do you live in the #UK and want to see the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy? Then when you’re in #London next, pop along to the #ScienceMuseum, where you can see the #Apollo10 #CommandModule. Not enough people know that it’s there, nor that it still holds the record for being the fastest crewed #spacecraft or any #vehicle, for that matter, to date.
