a14_v_c_o_AKP (1970, unnumbered NASA photo)
A serene, picturesque, almost Zen-like view of the Apollo 14 launch vehicle gliding down (the) crawler…way, on the first leg of its date with destiny - our orbed maiden, November 9, 1970. The upper portion of the poised, ever ready Mobile Service Structure (MSS) can be seen above & beyond the foreground flora on the right. If I were to take a closer look, there’s probably a dragonfly on the wing somewhere in the composition.
I think the destination, LC-39A, is what’s immediately to the left of the tracked behemoth…marked by what looks like the skyline of the gun-metal flat gray city on the (concrete) hill…mound actually. Some of you might know what I’m pathetically going for here.
