F-1 Engine

Science Museum Oklahoma displays its F-1 engine in a central, open area. There's a full balcony/walkway around 3 of the sides, and a small amount of the fourth side (although there are some obstructions on one of the "short" sides), affording the opportunity to photograph the top of the engine (as it sits on its dolly) as well as the more customary ground-level shots.

According to an ID tag, this is "Engine Assy. (Test Only) Serial No. I07-I". For whatever reason, the digit "1" has been replaced with the capital letter "I"; this is actually F-1 engine F-107-1.

Otherwise unremarkable, the engine is displayed without its injector, offering a view of the aft-facing side of the LOX dome.

We visited the museum over the course of two days; the first day, as I was shooting the F-1 a television film crew began setting up near the top of the engine (so you may see some oddities in some of the pictures).
