Swing Arm 8 | ||||
The swing arms on the Apollo Launch Umbilical Tower (LUT) are numbered from 1 to 9, with #1 being the bottom-most swing arm and #9 being the upper-most. Swing arm 8 was used to provide air-conditioning, vent line, coolant, electrical, and pneumatic interfaces to the Service Module. It retracted at lift-off and had a retract time of 9.0 seconds. As of now, I have not yet sorted through all of my pictures of swing arm 8, but some other page references this location. Thus, this is a "place holder" version right now, with only the pictures actually referenced. Come back some time later to see if I've finished up, or drop me an email to request me to prioritize the rest of these pictures. | ||||
