I wanted to be an astronaut. After learning about space in my 4th grade classroom and actually grasping some of the enormity of it all, I was sure that I wanted to go up there and explore. I began watching all of the television shows and prepared myself to captain a ship like Captain Kirk or Picard. I surmised that I had to begin speaking in sentence fragments or shave my head to be a captain of a spaceship and both of those ideas seemed like a fair trade for going up in space.
Needless to say my dreams of space travel have not come true. It turns out that just shaving your head doesn't get you into space and speaking in sentence fragments helps even less. It also didn't help that math and science were so integral in the whole process. Why can't bloggers go to space? Oh the harsh reality that is life.
Even though I'll never make it into space, I can get some pretty awesome models that make me feel like I'm on my way. Dragon has come out with some spectacular models that will transport you to outer space with their beautiful design and accurate detailing.
You have the choice of the X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle, the Delta II Rocket with Launch Pad, or a NASA Space Shuttle with the Hubble Space Telescope. So whether you're a space enthusiast or, like me, you want to imagine yourself in space and remember a time when you truly thought the sky was the limit, these gorgeous models with satisfy your space fix.
