bogus. where's the original wiring and circuitry? this is phony.
"Not much of the original wiring and circuitry remains in the MOCR consoles today. NASA's original restoration plans for the room included wiring up each console with blinking lights, to give some vibrancy to the space and to "provide visitors with a realistic sense of what the control room resembled in operation during the Apollo Era timeframe." Sadly, there simply wasn't money available to enact that portion of the restoration plans, and though the MOCR 2 consoles today do contain a lot of Apollo panels, they are disconnected husks."
