Gemini 3 Command Pilot's Hatch (pre-renovation)

The interior of the Grissom Memorial underwent renovation from the end of 2008 until April 2009 and was "officially rededicated" on July 18 as part of the park's annual "Grissom Day" celebration. The pictures here were taken prior to the renovation, depicting the components' appearance from our first visit in 2002 through 2008; I also have pictures of the hatch after this renovation.

Gemini 3 was displayed without its Command Pilot's hatch; the hatch itself was under the stairs in a separate display case.
