Virgil "Gus" Grissom grew up in this modest Mitchell house before becoming one of the original Mercury Seven astronauts and later commanding Gemini 3. The preserved home is operated as a small museum devoted to his childhood and early life, providing a more personal counterpoint to large space museums.
Filed under museums: small, specific collections run by people who care far too much.
