NORTH AMERICAN ROCKWELL

APOLLO COMMAND MODULE (MOCKUP)

The Apollo command module is the NASA spacecraft that flew astronauts from the Earth to the Moon and back.

In 1961, NASA awarded the contract for the command module to then North American Aviation. It was a continuation of the "capsule" spacecraft design used in the Mercury and Gemini Programs. The Apollo command module was larger to accommodate three astronauts and used advanced computers and navigational equipment on the longer lunar flights. For most of the flight, the command module was attached to the service module which contained the propulsion, environmental, electrical, control and fuel systems.

Unlike the previous NASA spacecraft, the Apollo command module was built with a docking assembly and hatch so that it could dock with the lunar module. The lunar module would detach and land on the moon with two astronauts leaving the command module and its pilot in lunar orbit until their return.

Thirty-five command modules were built, with 15 of them being launched on manned space missions. These included eleven Apollo missions, three Skylab missions, and the Apollo Soyuz Test Project. The rest of the modules were used in various Earthbound tests or unmanned test flights.

This command module mockup was built by North American Rockwell for the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite during their reporting of the Apollo missions. Made up of surplus command module panels, equipment, couches and other parts, it gave television viewers a visual of the interior of the spacecraft. During the Apollo missions, there was limited live and recorded footage for use by the networks. Mockups, models, graphics and other visual aids were important tools for reporters to help fill in the visual narrative of an Apollo mission.

The mockup was later used in the Ron Howard & Tom Hanks HBO miniseries From the Earth to the Moon. In the miniseries, the mockup was used by Emmett Seaborn, a fictitious news anchor with the fictitious NTC network.

Technical Specifications (Command Module Without Service Module):

Length: 30 ft-10 in

Diameter: 10 ft-7 in

Interior 210 cubic feet

Weight: 12.251 Ibs. (without service module)

Crew: 3

The memorial will stand as a fitting tribute to the 55,573 Bomber Command crew who lost their lives in the Second World War.

The Bomber Command Memorial has been designed by architect Liam O'Connor

The memorial has been built to be modern, yet classical, in Portland stone.

At its heart are the bronze sculptures of a Bomber Command aircrew.

Within the memorial, the space is open to the sky with an opening designed to allow light to fall directly onto sculptures of the aircrew.

The scale of the sculpture as a whole means that visitors will always see the profile of the sculpture against the sky above them, day and night - thus rendering that section of the sky powerfully symbolic for the memorial.

The Royal Air Force Bomber Command Memorial is a memorial, commemorating the aircrews of Royal Air Force Bomber Command who embarked on missions during the Second World War. The memorial was built to mark the sacrifice of 55,573 aircrew who flew with the Royal Air Force in World War II.

Liam O'Connor designed the memorial which is built of Portland stone and features a bronze sculpture of seven aircrew, designed by the sculptor Philip Jackson to look as though they have just returned from a bombing mission.

Queen Elizabeth II officially opened the memorial on 28 June 2012
