SEATTLE — The space shuttle trainer exhibit opens to the public Saturday at the Museum of Flight in Seattle.

The 100-foot trainer was used by space shuttle astronaut crews. It’s displayed in the $12 million Charles Simonyi Space Gallery that opened earlier this year.

Visitors will be able to step inside the fuselage to feel what it was like to be in a shuttle.
