Nice display and the kids love it. The lunar lander is set up high in the air, making it impossible for photo ops, but it's still worth seeing.

A 30-foot-tall replica of a Lunar Lander used as a trainer by the Apollo 13 astronauts. Apollo 13 astronaut and Mississippi native Fred Haise left space-boot prints and a signature in concrete at the base of the exhibit.
Might not be the best photo op during a lightning storm.
