Lunar Module Docking Model From Command Module Simulator

The actual Lunar Module ascent stage taken from the Command Module Simulator 2 at KSC after training was complete.  It measures 5" tall and 8" at its widest point, and seems to be made of molded and then painted fiberglass.  This was the actual Lunar Module model which was made to move around the camera in the simulator tunnel to show the attitude of the LM in relation to the CSM in response to the hand controller inputs from the Command Module Pilots.  The model contains a docking port for practice in that maneuver, and several lights, including the main strobe light, that were wired up and in lit up in the simulator.  The wires and most the bulbs still remain, and can be made to work again.  The windows on the LM used to have sort sort of plexiglass glued onto the window recesses, but they have come off and have been lost, but can be easily restored.  Of the sixteen small thrusters, only 15 remain.

There were a total of three Command Module simulators in use at the time, CMS-1, CMS-2 and CMS-3.  CMS-1 was in Houston and was used for system familiarization, while CMS-2 and CMS-3 were at KSC and were used for mission specific training, such as docking.  This particular Lunar Module model was in the darkened CMS-2 tunnel, and was used to train the Apollo 9, Apollo 11 and Apollo 13 crews.  That means that Dave Scott, Michael Collins and Ken Mattingly, along with their backups (Gordon, Anders and Swigert) all trained for rendezvous and docking using this model.  CMS-2 also was used to train the Apollo 1 and Apollo 7 crews but without a need for this LM model of course.  The other simulator, CMS-3, was used to train all the other Apollo crews.  After training for the Apollo landing missions was complete, this model was taken from the CMS-2 simulator tunnel, and has been kept in storage ever since that time.  Probably the only one of the three in existence that was saved.

I have provided a photo taken from a slide showing this LM model mounted in the simulator tunnel.

Apollo Spacecraft News Reference Notebook

A vintage Apollo Spacecraft News Reference from North American Rockwell.

Vintage Gulf Oil Lunar Module Construction Model

A vintage 12-1/2"x 20" Lunar Module cardboard punch out and fit together model from Gulf Oil.  Each piece must be separated from the main sheet, folded where instructed and fit together with other pieces by way of tabs and slots.  This dates to the time of the Apollo 11 mission, and I remember putting together 5 or 6 of these when I was a kid (still have one).  I have provided a back view of this item to better show what is missing - however, the two small missing pieces are not actually part of the LM model but in fact are in between pieces meant to be thrown away.  Nice shape.

Lunar Module Hardware - Extending Clamp Light

To be clear from the start, this Lunar Module clamp extension light is not "like" the one shown above Armstrong's head, it IS the one above Armstrong's head.  It was rescued from the Lunar Module Simulator (LMS) by the consignor after all Apollo LM mission training was completed, and a signed letter attesting to that fact comes with this lot.

The entire unit weighs about 2 pounds with the capability of the long, coiled extension cable to be plugged into the LM panel for power.  It could be clamped into place in the LM for fixed lighting at any angle or the light itself (white part) could be removed from the clamp base to be used as a flashlight to extend lighting into all the nooks and crannies inside the spacecraft.  The coiled wire has separated over the years a few inches from the light, but that can easily be repaired to either working condition or for display.  An interesting aside is that the clamp from a light similar to this one was used to help attach cue cards and repair the Apollo 17 lunar rover fender.

This Lunar Module light may be the only one you will ever see for sale.  Excellent condition except for the aforementioned break in the wire.

Estimated Value:  $2000 - $5000
