The flight article Apollo spacecraft (Command Module-111 and Service Module-111) for the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project mission goes through prelaunch checkout procedures in the high bay area of the Manned Spacecraft Operations Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. Later, Spacecraft-111 was mated to the spacecraft launch vehicle adapter (SLA-18) in the MSOB before being moved to the Vehicle Assembly Building where it was mated to the Saturn 1B launch vehicle. The joint U.S.-USSR ASTP docking mission in Earth orbit is scheduled for July 1975.
