COLUMBUS, Ohio (CNN) -- The Ohio State Fair honored the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Mission with giant sculptures made of butter.

The display was unveiled in Columbus Tuesday.

It includes a life-sized butter sculpture of Ohio native astronaut Neil Armstrong as well as Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins.
