View of the the second nozzle extension. Based on the lighting and appearance of the building's walls (as well as an approximately 30-minute gap in in the timestamps of the photos), this appears to be a different warehouse than the first nozzle extension.

The nozzle extension is mounted on a G4080 Nozzle Extension Handling Fixture, which itself is mounted on a G4081 Nozzle Extension Handling Adapter, which allowed for vertical storage or transportation.

The small white strip toward the right is the nozzle extension's U.S. government property tag. When viewing the full-sized version of this photo, a blue circular sticker can be seen over a red sticker, so it seems very likely that this is the nozzle extension corresponding to the ID tag.

This property tag has the same number as the nozzle extension on the F-1 which was displayed in front of Building 4200.
