Forty years ago today, NASA photographer Bill Taub was having his blood checked by Cheryl Tuchman at KSC prior to taking pictures of the Apollo 11 astronauts having dinner in their crew quarters. The test was necessary because of the semi-quarantine established for launch.

Everyone smoked just about everywhere then! No wonder they had to have the no smoking signs on the flightlines and at the launchpads.
