Mercury-Redstone_4_July_19_launch_attempt_61-MR4-65.jpg

Summary

Description	English: Mercury-Redstone 4 in the final minutes of the countdown for the July 19 launch attempt. The launch was scrubbed due to weather with only 10 minutes 30 seconds remaining in the countdown. In the background is the rocket's service structure, which was moved to the edge of the pad at 60 minutes before launch. Shortly thereafter, the "cherry picker" was stationed at the spacecraft's hatch to permit emergency exit of the pilot, if necessary.
