SA-500D

소개

The Saturn V Dynamic Test Vehicle, designated SA-500D, is a prototype Saturn V rocket used by NASA to test the performance of the rocket when vibrated to simulate the shaking which subsequent rockets would experience during launch. It was the first full-scale Saturn V completed by the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC). Though SA-500D never flew, it was instrumental in the development of the Saturn V rocket which propelled the first human missions to the Moon as part of the Apollo program. Built under the direction of Wernher von Braun, it served as the test vehicle for all of the Saturn support facilities at MSFC.
