Kennedy Space Center was built in the early 1960s for launching the Saturn V rocket for the Apollo program. Originally, three identical launch pads were planned to be built: 39A, 39B and 39C.

Space history curator Michael Neufeld explores the history of Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex ... odd-looking launcher and Pad 39B for the Apollo Soyuz Test Project in 1975 as well.

The documentary tells the story of Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee, who died after a fire erupted in their spacecraft on the launch pad.
