Pad 34 is where 3 Apollo Astronauts, Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee, were killed by a fire while testing the Apollo Command Module on January 27, 1967. This disaster caused dramatic changes to the design of the command module making it, in many eyes, much safer for the astronauts. Pad 34 is designated as a National Historic Site, but as the photos show is deteriorating.

Here are 2 shots of a Delta IV rocket on Pad 37. These shots were taken from Pad 34. It's mission is to put the GOES-N satellite into orbit. The GOES-N is a geostationary designed to provide a constant vigil for the atmospheric "triggers" for severe weather conditions such as tornadoes, flash floods, hail storms, and hurricanes. The launch date is scheduled for late June '05.

The Apollo/Saturn V Center is where the tour ended. These shots are of the real Saturn V rocket and Apollo Command Module they have on display at the center. They are leftovers of the Apollo program that was canceled due to budget cuts and to focus on the Space Shuttle program. Along with this display they have actual moon rocks and the Command Module from the Apollo/Soyuz project, the first joint space mission with the Soviet Space Program.
