[i]This weekend, INFINITY partnered with PPG for their Colorful Communities initiative to paint the Apollo 19 Saturn V S-1C. Three years ago, the mighty Saturn V booster began its journey from Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans to INFINITY, so that it may continue to tell the unforgettable Apollo story and inspire the next generation of explorers to reach new limits. Apollo 13 LMP and would-be Commander of the cancelled Apollo 19 mission Fred Haise even helped apply a fresh coat of white paint to this priceless artifact of American space history. Volunteer crews painted the carrier vehicle "Safety Blue." Thank you to PPG for their generous donation of nearly 105 gallons of specialized paint products from their protective and marine coating division for the restoration. This is history restored.[/i]
