beskrivelse:
Still from film footage showing interstage between the S-IC first stage and S-II second stage falling away during the Apollo 6 flight. The image is taken from the perspective of the second stage and was recorded by a film camera that was jettisoned soon after the first stage separation, and though about 200,000 feet in altitude was still below orbital velocity. It then reentered the atmosphere and parachuted to the ocean where it (and other similar cameras) floated waiting for recovery. It filmed at high speeds causing the slow motion look of the sequence when seen in a documentary.
