Where is Apollo 10 Snoopy today?

THX 3417

After Apollo 10 undocked the LEM nicknamed Snoopy they dumped a nice piece of machinery. I’m wondering if it crashed into the moon or is it still orbiting the moon or did it travel outwards into the cold darkness and void of space and time?

From Wikipedia :

The command module is displayed at the Science Museum in London. The lunar module is in heliocentric orbit, thus making it the only intact lunar module ascent stage out of all of the lunar modules sent into space (Apollos 5, 9, 13 LM ascent stages burned up in Earth's atmosphere, Apollo 11 LM ascent stage left in lunar orbit - eventually crashed on moon, Apollos 12, 14, 15, 16, 17 LM ascent stages deliberately crashed into moon) .

Wow thanks mate for the feedback on the Apollo era it was cool era. I didn’t know there was a LEM in London? I’ve seen one at NASA Space centre back in February 1981 and the ole Saturn V parked right outside near to the firing control centre wow.

Yeah, I was watching a NASA history channel on the NASA TV channel about the Apollo 10 mission and was kinder wondering where is Snoopy, to think its still out there all frozen up like a time capsule in time and space preserved for all time.

I for one thought he was still chasing the Red Baron.

Now who’s the ”Red Baron” never heard of that one I know it might have something to do with the ole biplanes of WW?

if i recall correctly, the red baron is something like manfred von richtoven, and he was one of the most feared pilots of the luftwaffe... he had something around 80 kills, i believe, before he was taken out

Didn't you guys ever see Peanuts cartoons? When Snoopy would ride his doghouse, and it would turn into a biplane, and he'd call himself the Red Baron?

And Snoopy dog fights him while flying atop of his dog house.

Sure mate, I’ve seen Snoopy cartoons during the early 1980’s on the children’s morning channel. But I don’t recall Snoopy transforming into biplane. I remember Charlie Brown and the weird girl what was her name?

Peppermint Patty? Marci?
