    All your videos are great, but the ones with Pops in them are the best!! He's so funny. Looks like he'd be an awesome travel partner.

      @susan nicky May I ask which investments are good? I've had an apartment for quite a while now but I've found it difficult to increase the luxury of my interiors.

    One of the things I keep thinking about for biomass farming that’s centered around forests (and coastlines), is having chemical plants (industry) and attractions for people around water (which also solves other problems when you make artificial lakes and “islands”) but also having 1-1 mock ups for space, where people can actually see what will be used and enjoy it on the ground.
    People need to feel that they’re making a difference. They need to see that they’re making a difference that they’re actually participating in what matters.

    Thank you for posting this, I’ve been to Space Center Houston twice in my life and they were vastly different experiences. I went with my mom in the mid 70’s have fuzzy memories of being able to visit actual NASA. I distinctly remember eating lunch in the employee cafeteria surrounded by engineers and astronauts. That was pretty special. The second time was in like 2000 and there was a few cool things but it was pretty much for children and pretty tedious for adults. This was my signal I need to make another visit!

    Great vid! Loved my visit to the space centre. The Saturn V was truly amazing. Did you also notice that in the big room showing the famous JFK “we choose to go to the moon” speech, that wooden lectern in the corner was the ACTUAL lectern where he gave the speech?! 😮

    Howdy from Houston! Well, about 20 minutes to the northwest of H-Town. Been looking forward to your Houston visit video(s). Always curious what draws tourists to the city. Glad you and Pops enjoyed Houston Mission Control. The SpaceX facility down in Brownsville is pretty cool as well, though they don't have a giant tourist center like NASA Houston. Hope you enjoyed your time here. Great video and love your channel! Looking forward to the main Houston vid.

    I hope to be in Texas later this year, arriving in Dallas, taking a bus to Houston and back.
    Is the park very big? The main thing I want to see is the Saturn V, but watching your video there is a whole lot more I only now see is there (the website is not so informative and quite confusing!).
    I guess your advice to buy tickets online is best, but I think the tram tour ties you to it and won't give time to explore further during stops.
    Do you have any advice for a first timer?
    And thanks for posting this video, super informative and entertaining to boot!
