From the Dallas Business Journal:
quote:
The Frontiers of Flight Museum is bringing a piece of the moon to Dallas with the unveiling of its newest exhibit, which includes the only actual moon rock on display in North Texas.

The museum is announcing the new Space Exploration Gallery at a public ceremony at 11 a.m. Oct. 7 at the museum.

The exhibit will also be home to NASA-donated memorabilia, including an actual space suit. Also available for viewing will be the Apollo 7 Command Module -- on loan from the Smithsonian -- and other original artifacts that illustrate the history of space exploration.

The museum's website can be found here.
