[FPSPACE] Apollo 011A on its way to California

[LARRY KLAES]

June 9, 2004 -- In August 1966, the Navy aircraft carrier U.S.S. Hornet was deployed near Wake Island in the Pacific Ocean to rendezvous and recover an unmanned Apollo Command Module returning from an hour-and-a-half suborbital flight into space. Nearly 40 years later, the same spacecraft has departed on a cross country journey that will reunite it with its recovery vessel - now a sea, air and space museum in California.
