With the wind down of our Shuttle Program and the 50th year of Man In Space, I thought I would map out where all our past Space Programs' capsules are on display.
This was originally motivated by seeing a few at the Kennedy Space Center and wondering where the rest are.
These POIs are a result of Google mapping each program (Mercury, Gemini, Apollo) and then combining them all into one. Locations were made at close street level. From there, the maps links were imported into Tyre and converted to POIs for my XL Live 340.
It's my first real attempt at some good converted POIs so forgive any errors, tho' I think I got it right.
The "Space Capsules" has two logos in it. One is the current 'meatball' logo and the other is the old logo that was in use during the three Space Programs.
Hope they came out OK and I hope others will enjoy them or find them handy. My thanks to this forum for providing some great info and keeping the "upgrade frustrations" at a bare minimum! I would've thrown my GPS out the window without the knowledge from those posts alone.
