Crew Module Simulator Skeleton
The crew module simulator is a full-scale representation of the vehicle that will ferry astronauts to the International Space Station by 2015, to the moon in the 2020 timeframe and ultimately to points beyond. While the conical module has the same basic shape as the Apollo Command Module, at approximately five meters (16.4 ft) in diameter, it is significantly larger.
