After years of having drawers full of all sorts of screwdrivers–and there are so many different kinds–Adam has come to the realization that he has a point of view about his favorite screwdriver design. His favorite screwdriver set ends up being one that he has a personal connection to, and has in his opinion the most beautiful handle of any hand tool he owns. And of course it’s a vintage design he has to hunt for on eBay!
We all know Adam is obsessed with Apollo 11, and while visiting the National Air and Space Museum’s Mary Baker Engen Restoration Hangar, he had a special opportunity to view the Columbia Apollo 11 command module up close. Objects conservator Lisa Young takes Adam through some of the work her team is doing on this historic artifact, differentiates between the pre-flight and post-flight marks on the exterior, and lets him peek inside, revealing the three-person crew’s tiny living quarters for most of the mission!
Note: At the time of filming, there was a mask mandate in place at Smithsonian.
