The Saturn IB space vehicle for the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project mission, with its launch umbilical tower, rides atop a huge crawler-transporter during its slow, 4.24-mile journey to Pad B, Launch Complex 39, at the Kennedy Space Center. The ASTP vehicle is composed of a Saturn IB (first) stage, a Saturn IVB (second) stage, and a payload consisting of a Command/Service Module and a Docking Module. The joint U.S.-USSR ASTP docking in Earth orbit mission is scheduled for July 1975.
