"OUCH!"MA-8 Launch Ground Tracks A single sheet of the Cape Canaveral launch pads with a grid overlay. Prominent features are marked such as the "Skid Strip," the two Mercury pads (5 and 14), the Lighthouse, and all roads in the area. Plot lines from Pad 14 are based on wind speeds and show possible pad area impacts by the "Sigma 7" spacecraft if an abort occurred. Approximately 11x21 inches. NASA/CC, 1962
- Notes: Wally Schirra usually had a clever comment ready for any situation. Upon reviewing this sheet, he wrote "Ouch!!" and drew an arrow where he would have impacted the beach during an abort. Signed by Schirra with "E 7" (sigma 7) added.
- Condition: All items are offered for sale subject to Swann Galleries' standard terms and conditions of sale, which are published in our catalogues.
