CM-011A

This Apollo Block I Command Module flew on the suborbital AS-202 mission on August 25, 1966. This was the third flight of the Saturn IB and the second Command Module heat shield test. The command module was later drop-tested to test the durability of instruments without the presence of the protective heatshield. A major crack can be seen as a result of that dry-land drop test.
