Forty years ago today, the Apollo 10 crew headed for the simulator one last time before their launch on May 18. CMP John Young (left) and CDR Tom Stafford are about to climb the stairs to KSC's Command Module Simulator, while they seem to be waiting for LMP Gene Cernan.

"I told Geno he shouldn't have had those Burritos and Guacamole delivered to crew quarters last night!"

Excellent photo showing good detail of the simulators. Just out of curiosity, where are these simulators now? I sure hope they weren't scrapped.

Maybe they are telling Geno to quit talking to the stuffed Snoopy (see April 25 photo) and get in the simulator!
