Overall view of the F-1 Engine Test Stand RP-1 tank (far right).
The RP-1 tank is approximately 2/3 the height of the LOX tank and is the lower
tank, visible under the thicker work platform in this pre-removal photo of the
F-1 Engine Test Stand. See "Floor Plans -
Fuel Tank Support, Fuel Platform, and LOX Platform Plans" and "Building
Section" drawings at HABS/HAER for additional information about the
propellant tanks prior to their removal.
Google
Maps link to the tank's location when I photographed it. (As I write
this page, only the overhead view has been updated to show the RP-1 tank; the
45° view has not been so updated. Since the 45° view cannot be
disabled by encoding a URL, you will need to turn it off manually to see the
RP-1 tank.)
