You must pay admission to the Space and Rocket Center Museum to be able to use this penny smasher. Admission for adults is $20. This building is amazing in itself as it houses an original Saturn 5 rocket completely refurbished and shows how all the rockets fit together and break apart in launch sequence. The building is a 476 feet long, 90 foot wide, and 63 foot high structure. The Saturn 5 hangs suspended 10 feet off the floor so you can get almost a complete view of it.
The penny smasher is located at the engine section of the Saturn 5 Rocket. It looks tiny compared to the rocket above it.
Denomination: Penny
Number of Designs: Four
