- nine_k 6y agoAnyone who visited a museum near Moscow (if you want the very first one), or a bunch of expositions across the US (if you want those which traveled to the moon): https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apolloloc.html https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apolloloc.html
- baybal2 6y agoI did, in US. Russia sells spent capsules for souveniers these day.
- odiroot 6y agoThere's one in my hometown on public display. I could risk a guess tens of thousands of people touched it.
- 2Gkashmiri 6y agooh. that was years ago, probably in 2015 i guess
- marshmallow_12 6y agoI once saw something (probably a space capsule) in the Science Museum, London.
- KuiN 6y agoI'm pretty sure that'll be the Soyuz capsule that Tim Peake flew to & from ISS on (Soyuz TMA-19M), hence the UK interest. I saw it on temporary display in Edinburgh before it went down to London for permanent display at the Science Museum.
