Apollo Mission Crew Practicing Water Egress with Spacecraft Model, 1966 Image
Astronauts from the first manned Apollo mission are seen practicing water egress procedures using a full-scale boilerplate model of their spacecraft. This training took place in June 1966 at Ellington Air Force Base near the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston. The image shows astronauts fully suited and participating in the water exercise, with NASA swimmers assisting. This photograph captures a significant moment in the preparation for America's crewed space missions. It could be used in educational materials, historical documentaries, books on space exploration, or articles about the Apollo program and NASA's training processes.
