Overall view of the forward end of the S-II stage.

The large yellow assembly is not actually part of the stage, but rather stage handling ground support equipment (comprised of the forward support ring, the forward hoisting frame, and the stage erecting sling). The only S-II stage displayed without this GSE is the one at KSC.
