See a Moon Rock at New GEHC Exhibit
'Living in Space' exhibit will also include space shuttle tile, shuttle foam, space food and an astronaut space glove.
From now until Dec. 31, area residents can get a feel for what it is like to live on board the International Space Station.
The “Living in Space” exhibit at the Gwinnett Environmental and Heritage Center in Buford will allow visitors to learn what it is like to work, eat and play as an ISS crewmember in space. Stories and videos from actual ISS crewmembers will be part of the exhibit. Organizers hope visitors will learn more about the challenges and opportunities space exploration presents.
“The GEHC is so excited to host this exhibit as it inspires visitors to explore the frontier of space,” said Jason West, director of development in a released statement.
