Adam Savage is back at one of his FAVORITE places, @airandspace's Mary Baker Engen Restoration Hangar, where the museum's large artifacts are reconstructed, repaired and preserved in preparation for display. Museum specialist Bridget Clark walks Adam through the process of conserving a former space shuttle engine -- which weighs a staggering 15,000 pounds -- and reveals some secrets about the artifact that surprised and delighted her (and Adam!).
