Smilies Legend
[i]Everett Gibson, an emeritus senior scientist, at Johnson, worked in the lab during Apollo 12 through 17 missions. It's hard to see the building go, he said, but saving it for historical purposes would be cost prohibitive. He's also not sure the public interest is there. "Sometimes in life we have to make hard decisions, and I don't know what you could do with it," he said. "It's sitting out there rotting and the cost to keep is going is just horrendous. I don't think it's that exciting to a man and a woman on the street."

She plans to save the original stairs, pillars and walkways, as well as many pieces of equipment inside the building as she can.[/i]
