The A models did not have the center engine. They where prototypes to prove the concept. The B models where to prove the stage and a half concept.That is why this rocket was so rare and special.
If sealed and pumped back up, would it re-inflate? This is sad.
What’s the truth about this museum? I get two stories: one closed for renovations for two years another is permanently closed....

I get two stories: one closed for renovations for two years another is permanently closed....This is the main campus of the Science and Technology museum and has been there since the 1960's. Since then they have acquired an Agricultural museum and an Aviation museum, and the Aviation museum in particular has large new buildings, a more focused mandate and has attracted much of the money and management interest. The original building is also rather ordinary and much of their energy has been taken up with making proposals for a new one - thus the old one has been so neglected that the roof leaks and the insulation is mouldy and has been declared a hazard. The building has been closed and they have received $80 million to rebuild it. It is hoped to reopen in two years.John
