Submerged rigid repeater for Transatlantic Telephone cable
In 1956 the first transatlantic telephone cable, TAT-1, was laid. In the section connecting Newfoundland and Nova Scotia rigid electronic repeaters were included to boost the electrical signals sent through the cable. Another section of the cable connecting Newfoundland and Oban, Scotland used flexible repeaters developed by Bell Telephone Laboratories.
J-2 Engine
The J-2 Engine was used in the second and third stages of the Saturn V rocket. Five were used in the second stage and one relight-able one was used in the third stage. Each engine produced 232,250 lbs of thrust in a vacuum which pushed the Saturn V into orbit at 17,400 mph and then onto the Moon at over 24,000 mph.
Fly Zone
Fly 360
Fly 360 is a flight simulator station. People who step into this station turn into fighter pilots who are tasked with flying a plane in combat. The objective while flying is to take out the enemy planes. While in the "cockpit", the people piloting have full control of the plane and they are able fly the plane however they please. The flying is also accompanied with real time motion where the whole cockpit moves according to how they plane moves. This allows the people to get a true feeling for how flying in combat feels.
