How ironic that Wally would make futuristic references to the Space Shuttle considering today in 2012 NASA,s going back to an Apollo style capsule system.

they sell DVDs of the original NASA footage from all stages of the mission, as well as some documentary stuff, for all apollo, gemini, and mercury missions (afaik) and some notable shuttle flights, as well as X-15 videos and other stuff.

1:15 futuristic reference to when a "Space Shuttle" will be able to land on a runway, and the crew will be able to just open the hatch and walk out of it.
