Numerous relics of the U.S. and Soviet space race will be spotlighted including the original NASA designed and constructed spacesuit transporter from the Mobile Biological Isolation System (MBIS) created for David Vetter in 1977 and was the inspiration for the Emmy nominated film The Boy in The Plastic Bubble starring John Travolta, approximately 1,600 feet of 16mm film footage of astronauts Paul Weitz and Bruce McCandless wearing space suits in a zero gravity simulator for the Apollo Applications Program, a camera designed for use on the Moon Rover vehicle, a space flown NASA T-shirt and shorts worn by astronaut Donn Eisele on Apollo VII, a Soviet space program coffee tube signed by Vostok 3 cosmonaut Andriyan Nikolayev and more.
