Sunrise over Launch Pad 34 in Florida finds only concrete and steel remain of the historic site.

Sunrise over Launch Pad 34 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida finds only concrete and steel remain of the historic site, long since demolished.

On this day in 1967, a fire erupted on the pad during a preflight test, taking the lives of the Apollo 1 crew, NASA astronauts Virgil Grissom, Edward White and Roger Chaffee.
