About this website

The idea for a web page started back in August of '96, when I discovered Chuck Corway's Saturn V page. I had taken some photos of the Saturn V at the Alabama Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville and offered to scan them so he could use them. He did use them, and I was inspired to write my own web page, highlighting my photos and references.

Soon after, I traveled to the Kennedy Space Center to photograph the Saturn V on display there and discovered it was being restored. Once it was finished, I set about photographing every detail. Right now I have well over 450 shots of it, Lunar Module 9 and Command Service Module 119.

On my first trip to KSC, I discovered that Revell had reissued the 1/96 scale Saturn V and I was really hooked. I soon realized that there isn't much information available on the dimensions of this historic vehicle or its launcher. Since December of '96, I have been on a quest to find and make available this information. With the help of space buffs and collectors all over the world, I have been able to make it happen.

If you have info on the Apollo program and wish to share it with others, please contact me by Email at the address on the bottom of the page. Proper credit is given for all contributions.

I hope everyone finds this website interesting and maybe a little bit educational.

The Saturn V at the Kennedy Space Center underwent a restoration that was completed in December of 1996. A new facility was built near the Vehicle Assembly Building to house it. It is a beautiful site with a view of the launch pads, several miles away. The job they did on the Saturn was superb. There's not a blemish on it, and no evidence of the repair work that was required after it sat out in the weather for twenty-five years. The other remaining Saturn hardware remains outside in the weather, deteriorating evidence of Man's greatest adventure.

This webpage is based in Brunswick, which is in southeast Georgia.

Most of the diagrams on these pages are taken directly from NASA documents. In some cases, they may seem less "polished" than current day illustrations. I think it helps to retain the sense of history to use the older diagrams. Also, in many cases, newer illustrations are inaccurate.
