S-IC (July 11)

We arrived early Wednesday morning. It was raining or threatening to do so most of the morning.

The S-IC began moving about 8:10. Each crawler had its own operator, who controlled his crawler via a chest-mounted console. They backed the S-IC up several feet to get a bit more clearance between it and the S-II stage. Then, showing off the capabilities of the crawlers, they pivoted the forward crawler about 90 degrees. It pivoted in place -- the booster itself never moved.
