Apollo 4 45th anniversary tribute
This is a shorter and slightly modified edit of what I posted a year ago. This time it #39;s the 45th anniversary of the flight of Apollo 4, the first flight of a Saturn V (unmanned) in what was called an "all up test", meaning they threw the whole thing together for the first test, which is very risky because if one part fails, they lose the whole vehicle. This test went very well. The next Saturn V flight, Apollo 6 had many problems with vibrations and engine outs. But after the cause for the those issues were discovered, the Saturn V was deem man ready after only 2 test flights. Men would first ride the Saturn V on Apollo 8 and do so up through Apollo 17. The last Saturn V was launched in May of 1973. That carried the entire Skylab Space Station to orbit with one launch! Once again, I will punch Moon hoaxers mom #39;s for reproducing, therefore comments are on Approval basis only.From:unsaneViews:0 0ratingsTime:03:35More inScience Technology
