This Saturn V rocket would have launched the Apollo19 mission to the Moon, but it never flew due to budget cuts. Hanging to the upper right of the Saturn V are the mission patches of all the Apollo flights that rode on Saturn rockets, from Apollo 7 to Apollo 17. Apollo 7 launched on a Saturn 1 rocket, all the others used Saturn V's. Apollo 7 launched from LC34, but all the remaining Apollo missions used LC39A or B.

Sacrificing the Hasselblads
Along with the Moon rocks, some of the most precious cargo the astronauts returned from the lunar surface were the camera backs removed from their Hasselblad 70-mm cameras. Inside were some of the most famous and profound images ever recorded in history, each image giving photographic testimony to mankind's first exploration of another world.
To save weight and space for their return trip off the Moon, the astronauts discarded their Hasselblad cameras on the lunar surface, returning to Earth with only the camera backs. During the Apollo Program, these film canisters returned nearly 25,000 priceless photographic images, many of which have been forever etched in our collective memory
DISPLAYED HERE are actual Hasselblad film backs returned from each Apollo mission. These special canisters were built by Hasselblad specifically for NASA and each unit contained enough film for 200 exposures. Displayed with each canister are actual photographic images returned to Earth from these specific camera backs.
