Lot 4 looks like a page from an exam.

I believe it is. I have several pages from that group of 1955 Slayton hand written notes and there are some "test" papers as well as class notes. On the back of one of my papers Slayton had written a shopping list for the grocery store.

Astronaut Scholarship Foundation auction offers rare look at Orion space capsule

Since splashing down after its historic test flight last December, NASA's first Orion capsule to launch into space has been, for the most part, out of public sight. Now, an auction benefiting students is offering the chance for two lucky people to go behind-the-scenes and see the Orion spacecraft up close.

The Astronaut Scholarship Foundation (ASF), founded by the Mercury astronauts in 1984 to award college students who are excelling in science and engineering degrees, is auctioning access to the Orion as part of its annual Spring sale of astronaut memorabilia and experiences.

"You and a guest will join Hugh Harris, the legendary voice of NASA, for a private behind-the-scenes tour of Kennedy Space Center and the Orion!" the foundation states on its auction website.

All times are CT (US)
