Abstract

The White Room- on display today at the Rocket Garden exhibition at the LC26 Air Force Space& Missile Museum - once sat atop the erector for the Gemini-Titan Launch Vehicle. The White Room was functioned as an environmentally controlled room where the spacecraft was readied. The background image used for our model is courtesy of NASA and shows Gemini IXA astronauts Eugene Cernan, left, and Tom Stafford, center, arriving in the white room atop Launch Pad 19 at Cape Canaveral on June 3, 1966. Our terrestrial laser scanning survey point cloud data was used to create the model, which has a faux back and top shape added to complete the laser scan survey areas. The white room scans were part of a 3D documentation of the LC26 site, including the Rocket Garden and extant landscape features.
