S-1B or Saturn V Large S-IVB Panel Section

Lot #161 (Sale Order 163 of 514)

A large 7 foot high by 12.5 feet long panel S-IVB stage section off an S-1B rocket or off a Saturn V third stage. Its diameter, if it was complete, was calculated to about 21.5" feet, which would make it the above. Hardware expert Scott Schneeweis has been able to add the following to the description: It's a part of an S-IVB aft skirt, but the S-IVB was flown on both the S-1B and the Saturn V with slightly different configurations (the differences extend to the aft skirt as well). I cannot determine from the photos which of the two Saturn variants this skirt subassembly was intended for, so it could be either. However, it can be seen where the umbilical plate was located (it's to the very right of the photo with the matrixed holes) - this is the point at which the LUT swing arm mated to the stage. The winning bidder will make shipping arrangements independent of this auction. The Saturn panel is located in Orlando and there are many shipping companies there that can send it anywhere in the world. I will provide contact information upon request.

KSC Lunar Module Simulator Patch, Rare

Lot #173 (Sale Order 175 of 514)

An original and vintage 3"x 5" KSC Gemini Mission Simulator (GMS) and Lunar Module Simulator (LMS) patch - I know of only two in existence. It has a bare cloth backing and is missing a small bit of edge felt from either being sewn onto a jacket or from insects. It consists of a blindfolded eagle, a representation of the moon, a data stream and bit bucket, and a red bar (bar sinister). As explained to me by the head instructor at the LMS, the interpretation of the symbols is a bit difficult, but it basically means that we fly the world blindfolded (the simulators), in order to land on the moon, using a data stream and bit bucket. The bar sinister (red bar) represents that the KSC team was a secondary outfit compared to the Houston setup (in their mind at the time), and the data stream represents the punch tape used to load the computers at the simulators. Punch tape was only used during the Gemini simulations, leading me to believe this patch was designed at that time, but still used during the LM period. Extremely rare.

Apollo 14 Flown and Signed Star Emblem on Color Presentation

Lot #343 (Sale Order 344 of 514)

An 6"x 8" internally made display bearing a small star figure which was flown aboard Apollo 14 on its mission to the moon. The display is signed nicely by the crew of Shepard, Roosa and Mitchell - authentic signatures. It looks to be backed with a sheet of heavy paper stock, making the display bend resistant. Only two of these star figures were flown, and therefore only two of these colorful displays exist. These were made by Hazel and Fran for themselves, who both worked at the KSC Flight Crew Training Building and were good friends with the astronauts. They purchased the star figures at a local store shortly before the mission, wanting to fly something that related to the mission (the star Antares, which was the Apollo 14 LM). The Apollo 14 astronauts, of course, were more than happy to fly the two stars for them. The presentation name on the card was "whited out" during that time period.

Apollo 14 Flown LMS Emblem on Laminated Card

Lot #346 (Sale Order 347 of 514)

A 1"x 1.5" Lunar Module Simulator emblem flown to the moon aboard the Apollo 14 mission, and laminated to a 2.75"x 4.25" card. It was presented as a gift to the consignor from Riley McCafferty who was the head of Flight Crew Training at KSC. Excellent condition. The LMS emblem means the following: It consists of a blindfolded eagle, a representation of the moon, a data stream and bit bucket, and a red bar (bar sinister). As explained to me by the head instructor at the LMS, the interpretation of the symbols is a bit difficult, but it basically means that we fly the world blindfolded (the simulators), in order to land on the moon, using a data stream and bit bucket. The bar sinister (red bar) represents that the KSC team was a secondary outfit compared to the Houston setup (in their mind at the time), and the data stream represents the punch tape used to load the computers at the simulators. Punch tape was only used during the Gemini simulations, leading me to believe this emblem was designed at that time, but still used during the LM period.

The track of the Apollo 16 CSM across the star field is also show in color. The lunar star chart reads at the bottom "LM Lunar Orbit Star Chart, March 17, 1972 Launch" which makes this chart one made for an earlier launch date than the one actually used. Also represented on the chart are the 3 stars named by Gus Grissom after the Apollo 1 crew, Navi (Ivan backwards, Gus' middle name), Regor (Roger backwards, for Chaffee) and Dnoces (Second backward, for Ed White the Second). This Lunar Orbit Star Chart was used in training by the crew and is marked on the back LMS2 7A, meaning it was used in the Lunar Module Simulator (LMS) for training. There is a bend and crease in the middle from poor storage, but can possibly be made non-apparent when it is flattened out, and emulsion damage from handling and storage. No rips or tears. Very uncommon for any mission.
