A historic piece of NASA memorabilia is going up for auction today: a flight jacket worn by Neil Armstrong during his training for the Apollo 11 mission to the moon.

The American Space Museum in Titusville says the jacket was found by the family of a man who worked on the U.S. space program during the Apollo era as he was being moved into assisted living.

The jacket is expected to fetch as much as $1.2 million at auction, with some of the proceeds going to support the museum's parent nonprofit, the U.S. Space Walk of Fame Foundation. by @news13

Alston ran track on scholarship at Warner University in Polk County, but after pulling his hamstring three times during his senior year, he had to find another way to train. That led him to competitive stair climbing, also known as towerrunning.

The 43,000-square-foot facility combines technology, video screens and Hollywood-type sets to create realistic scenarios designed with law enforcement in mind.

Members of the public can also experience the scenarios and learn how to make quick decisions under pressure, respond to emergencies and stay calm in potentially dangerous situations.
