Apollo 11 Saturn V launch
NASA, 1969
The whole stack in the fire, three men in the small end of it. Leaving looks inevitable. It was not, until the engines agreed.
About this work
This NASA photograph shows the Saturn V rocket carrying Apollo 11 lifting off from Launch Complex 39 at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on July 16, 1969. NASA's caption describes the 363-foot, 6,400,000-pound rocket producing "a holocaust of flames" as it rose from the pad. It placed the spacecraft in Earth parking orbit and then sent it on its way to the first crewed lunar landing. The Saturn V was developed by the Marshall Space Flight Center under the direction of Wernher von Braun. On board were Neil Armstrong, commander; Michael Collins, command module pilot; and Buzz Aldrin, lunar module pilot. Four days later Armstrong and Aldrin landed in the Sea of Tranquility, and the crew returned safely to Earth on July 24, 1969, splashing down in the Pacific. With that, the national objective to land people on the Moon and bring them home had been achieved. The image comes from the Marshall Space Flight Center's records of the Saturn Apollo program.
