A legitimate piece of American space history sits in Franklin, Indiana, in circumstances that defy straightforward explanation. The capsule is an authentic NASA Apollo test article — not a replica — that found its way to this Johnson County town through a series of surplus disposals after the space program wound down.
For years it was displayed outdoors near a local Dairy Queen, which gave it a certain surreal fame among those who track unusual roadside Americana. It has since been moved to a more sheltered location. Worth a look if you're interested in space history or simply in the strangeness of how history distributes itself across the American landscape.
