Has anyone ever wondered what NASA looks for when it is looking for new designers and scientists? This is something like that according to a letter I received from them when I sent this in. I figured I would share it with you all. I have spent many hours building this on Pro/Desktop. It is all Individual peices to, there are 23 Components in this assembly. I am nowhere near finished it, I just thought I would give you guys a little look into what I do in my free time.
Here is a scale replica of Apollo 10 (389ft)

This is a cut-away picture of the internals, note the rockets and fuel tanks, They are all to scale and everything fits.

This is The Command Module and Service Module, the action thing that carries the astronauts. The Egg Looking things in the service module are O2 tanks, and yes those are buttons inside of the command module.

Well Thanks for checking it out, I am still working on this project, it will be months before I even see the end of this long project. I have had only pictures to look at to build this. I plan to build the Landing Module some time next month, it will have working legs and all. If you have any questions or comments, please send them to me, I really enjoy feedback.
