Adam Savage is back at one of his favorite places, ‪the National Air and Space Museum's Mary Baker Engen Restoration Hangar, where the museum's large artifacts are reconstructed, repaired and preserved in preparation for display.

Museum specialist Bridget Clark walks Adam through the process of conserving a former space shuttle engine — which weighs a staggering 15,000 pounds — and reveals some secrets about the artifact that surprised and delighted her (and Adam!).
