Overall walk-around of the LES tower jettison motor in its current location.

Picture 3 of 4.

Recall that the motor is displayed upside down; the nozzles are installed so that they lift the launch escape tower and boost protective cover off of the Command Module.

At center are what appear to be two igniters.
