Forty-three years ago tonight, Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee were killed in the fire aboard the Apollo 1 spacecraft at Cape Canaveral's Pad 34. There's not much left of Launch Complex 34 these days, and what's left has been abandoned.
This is how 34 looked two years ago. It's hallowed ground, and its eerie silence speaks volumes. Now, as nature reclaims it, the floral tributes come on their own. Rest in peace, 34.
