While Mercury-Redstone Launch Vehicle-6 (MRLV-6) is well documented as on display at Kennedy Space Center, whether or not any others of the eight Mercury Redstones are still in existence has proven more difficult to research.

I recently learned that MRLV-1 was saved after MR-1 (MRLV-3 was used for MR-1A) and was put on display at the Space Orientation Center at Marshall Space Flight Center soon after. Does anyone know where this booster is now, if it is still intact?

I've also seen references that MRLV-4 was scrapped, does anyone have more information on this booster's fate?

All times are CT (US)
