First of 24 LED Panels Installed in New Countdown Clock
At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the first of 24 light emitting diode LED panels have arrived for installation in the new countdown clock at the spaceport's Press Site. A new modern, multimedia display soon will be installed, similar to the screens seen at sporting venues. The new screen will be nearly 26 feet wide by 7 feet high, a foot taller than the original clock. The historic countdown clock was designed by Kennedy engineers and built by space center technicians before Apollo 12 in 1969. NASA has requested to acquire the countdown clock from the agency’s Artifact Working Group at the agency's Headquarters for likely display at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.
