CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Personnel within Firing Room 2 of the LCC follow the early moments of the Apollo 12 launch on their overhead data display boards. When this view was taken, the vehicle’s second stage engines had ignited, carrying the Apollo 12 spacecraft to an altitude of more than 229,000 feet and more that 50 miles downrange.
