To any UK fans here, did you see Patrick Moore's "The Sky at Night" TV show this week?

He was talking to a few astronomers in his house at Selsey. They were all sitting around a glass top coffee table, but the base of the table was a huge Lunar Module. It looked amazing.

Does anybody know about this item? Or may have recorded the show and able to screen grab the table for all to see here. I'd say it was about 1/8th scale at a guess.

I believe I saw something similar in a photo of Buzz Aldrin's residence, too.

I believe this is the table to which you refer: Apollo Table

The Apollo Table is an innovative, creatively designed piece of high quality furniture cast in bronze to celebrate achievements in space exploration.

What's something like that cost? I don't see a price on their website.
