Two Apollo spaceships experienced catastrophic incidents resulting in loss of life: Apollo 1 on the launch pad in 1967 during a pre-launch test, and Apollo 13 in 1970 during its mission due to an oxygen tank explosion.
Where did Apollo 7 launch?
Apollo 7 launched from the Air Force Station's launch pad LC-34 (this was the only Apollo mission that did not launch from Kennedy Space Center's launch pad 39-A)
What is the time at which the spacecraft leaves the launch pad?
The spacecraft typically leaves the launch pad at the predetermined launch time scheduled by the mission controllers. This time is carefully planned to ensure alignment with the mission objectives and orbital trajectory.
What type of rocket launched the Apollo spacecraft?
The mammoth Saturn V 3-stage liquid fueled Lunar Launch Vehicle was responsible for the successful launch of all of the Apollo spacecraft (except of course Apollo 1, destroyed by fire on the launch pad during testing). The Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida, was specifically designed and built to assemble and service the Saturn V. When being rolled out on the crawler to the launch pad, the tip of the nose cone cleared the top of the doorway by only 6'. With the Apollo spacecraft aboard, the Saturn V was 363' tall and 33' wide, and weighed 6,699,000 lbs. It was just 1 foot shorter than St. Paul's Cathedral in London.
What is it called when the spacecraft leaves the launch pad?
It is called liftoff.
