A Gemini space capsule up for auction in Boston has drawn in more than just bids. The 2-ton boilerplate also attracted the local police for being parked in a loading zone. Escaping a ticket, the test capsule is set to be sold Thursday (Nov. 20), together with 600 other historic artifacts, through RR Auction’s online space sale.
