The Bullock Texas State History Museum is supposedly one of the guardians of Texas history and culture. Its mission is right there in the name.
The museum is operated by the Texas State Preservation Board and boasts exhibits across the breadth and scale of Texas and its history, from pre-history through the Spanish and French periods, the Texas Revolution, the Civil War, and even the space program. Houston, the state’s largest city, was the first word a human ever spoke on the Moon, after all. “Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed,” astronaut Neil Armstrong said to the NASA folks back on this planet before he slightly flubbed his more famous line as he descended to the dusty surface.
