Apollo 6 (A/S-502) the second unmanned space vehicle in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Apollo/Saturn V program, arrives at Pad A of Complex 39, Feb. 6, 1968. The 363 foot, three stage rocket and spacecraft, weighing 6,286,000 pounds when fueled, was transported on the mobile launcher to the launch pad by the transporter. The transporter moved over the specifically constructed crawlerway designed to support loads of approximately 18 million pounds. The unmanned Earth orbital Apollo 6 mission will be a high apogee flight, with systems testing, several propulsion systems burns, and a heat shield testing lunar re-entry speeds. Launch is programmed for the first quarter 1968.
