dsc16894.jpg

Overall walk-around of the forward end of the S-II stage.

Picture 4 of 7.

This photo was taken after a preliminary round of restoration had been performed on the Saturn V, but before the final painting of the stage (including re-adding the UNITED STATES to the tank wall).

The large yellow assembly is not actually part of the stage, but rather stage handling ground support equipment, the largest portion being the forward hoisting frame. The only S-II stage displayed without the forward hoisting frame is the one at KSC.
