A group of three Earth charts plotting the launch and orbital ground track of Apollo 11, starting at lift-off from the Kennedy Space Center, Cape Kennedy, Florida. Orbital paths on all three sheets illustrate the full launch direction azimuth from 72 to 108 degrees. Circular plots along the orbital ground tracks indicated communication tracking sites with red circles denoting tracking ships. If the Apollo space vehicles required additional time for checks while in Earth orbit, the third sheet plotted information relating to a one orbit delay for TLI.
