Apollo - Mission Patch Apollo 1

Another addition to my Apollo project. This is the mission patch for Apollo 1.

About Apollo 1
Grissom, White & Chaffee tragically died in a fire during a ground test at Pad 34 on 27 January 1967.

Their mission was to be the first manned test flight of the Apollo Command/Service Module (CSM) to Earth orbit, launched on a Saturn IB rocket. AS-204 was to test launch operations, ground tracking and control facilities and the performance of the Apollo-Saturn launch assembly and would have lasted up to two weeks, depending on how the spacecraft performed.

If you want to learn more about the Apollo-program, there are several biographies out there with amazing stories. Highly recommend Gene Kranz, Al Worden & Light This Candle.
