🚀 NASA PRESS RELEASE 62–Mariner I–14 Atlas Agena Launch – 8x10 Photo – Purple Print

Original NASA press photo showing the Atlas Agena rocket lifting off with the Mariner I spacecraft in 1962. This launch ended tragically 290 seconds after liftoff, when Range Safety destroyed the rocket due to a deviation from its trajectory—one of the earliest and most significant failures of the U.S. planetary program.
