It’s a space junkie’s dream: a 1/12 the scale model of the lunar module, the craft that landed on the moon 50 years ago, on July 20, 1969 – including the ladder astronaut Neil Armstrong climbed down. Posing with it is the man who built it, Nick Proach, whose Sechelt workshop builds scale models of spacecraft for museums and companies around the world. It is Sechelt’s little-known space place. And to mark the 50th anniversary of the lunar landing, Proach is opening the workshop and an adjoining museum for two and half hours on July 17, the first public open house. You can see models he’s built over the past 25 years and hear about his experiences as a space historian. See story page 6. DAN MCCORMACK PHOTO
