“SPACE WORKSHOP — Concept of Saturn S-IVB Orbital Workshop by Douglas Aircraft Company artist shows how giant rocket will appear after it is converted into two-story experimental laboratory in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Apollo Applications Program. The S-IVB stage (right) will be launched fully fueled, carrying the docking adapter and airlock seen in center. These will give astronauts access to the rocket’s liquid hydrogen tank after propellants have been depleted and will provide a “shirtsleeve” environment inside. Astronauts will be launched separately in an Apollo vehicle, rendezvous with the S-IVB and dock as shown at left. Cutaway section of S-IVB shows floor and partitions of lightweight metal grating which will divide the tank into separate “rooms” for astronaut activities without interfering with flow of fuel during launch. The “wings,” panels of solar cells to provide electric power, are folded down against the S-IVB during launch and extended after orbit is achieved. Windmill-like structure against side of the docking adapter is the Apollo Telescope Mount which will be added to the Workshop in second phase of program. Douglas, a component of McDonnell Douglas Corporation, builds the S-IVB at its Missile & Space Systems Division, Huntington Beach, Calif., for NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center and is making necessary modifications to the Orbiting Workshop vehicle under MSFC direction. The airlock is being developed by the McDonnell Astronautics Company, St. Louis, Mo., under contract to NASA’s Manned Spacecraft Center.”

For some reason, unbeknownst to me at the moment, I didn't cite where the above is from...which I used in my black & white version of this photo. WTF? And I don't have it in me to track down.
Beautiful artwork by Neil Jacobe.
