When I went to the Saturn V building I found that I was too late for the guided tour. I saw a gentleman in a lab coat and he told me the tours were over, but he could take me through the exhibit.
I am very lucky as the gentleman was Ron Paulus!! He was amazing!!! I believe that I learned more from him then I would have from a regular tour.
Your DOCENT program is great. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

~Ron Paulus

We had a marvelous experience listening to Ron Paulus explain all that goes into sending a rocket to the moon! His knowledge was brilliant and his experience during those years of exploration was fascinating. It was heartwarming to meet one of the exceptional people God chose for that job and that era.
