lift off, we have lift off

"huston we have life off", the launch of the apollo leg of the nasa space programme back in the 1960s to 70s.

the fat ass saturan v (5) rocket launches the little moduel that holds 3 astonauts into space, with apollo 11 landing on the moon and apollo13 bein made into a film.

the long "dick" you see in the picture is the abort rocket. should the astronauts wanna abort and eject the mission, the rocket will fire up, pulling the capsule under it.

those were the hay days of the space progammes, gone are the days. god speed guys.
