    My daughter picked up the set in 2009 during a trip to the space center...

    Very very cool. Here's my "anything else"
    Me, my girlfriend, and a good friend of ours had originally planned on seeing the launch when it was scheduled for June 28. Unfortunately it got postponed but we still went to the Space Center and got to see it on the pad.

    They interrupted the Price is Right for this launch. I mean, yes, last launch, historic, blah blah. But come on, it's the 10,000th Price is Right episode! It is a rerun though, it showed April 1st originally.

    Here's one of the only U.S. coins with a shuttle on it... and definitely the only coin with half a shuttle on it :)

    I had it cut into a coin puzzle which I thought was pretty neat.

    Now in about a week the shuttle will return, and our space capability will return to the 1959 level.
