I’m in Houston visiting family and we took the Johnson Space Center tour where you get to see the Saturn V. Massive is an understatement, especially those 5 hulking engines on the back of it.

I loved the JSC tour as a kid!
Y'all are aware that a first-stage Saturn V is on display at ISC, adjacent to Stennis SC (and visible from eastbound lanes of I-10)? Was at Michoud for decades.

Cool link, thanks!

If they barged the Stage 1 from Michoud to Stennis, how did they truck it to the rest area south of I-10? That thing didn't fit under the overpass at 607 did it? They also mention closing the interstate for the move. How did it end up on I-10?
