Center - Huntsville, Alabama. Measurements were taken directly from the
vehicle. Also "near" isometric photographs were taken and dimensions
were estimated from these photographs.

Effort was made to obtain accurate reference data. However many dimensions
were still estimated from photographic references. These estimations were
always kept in the bounds of known dimensions. All drawings are 1/24th scale.
The original drawings were created with MiniCad 6.0 on the Macintosh.
Areas that are particularly susceptible to estimation:
Medium and small parts within the Stage-1
engine (YLR-87) estimated from isometric photographs.
All dimensions of the Stage-2 engine (YLR-91) and its support structure
estimated from 3/4 view and isometric line drawings.
The top half (Gemini Modifications) of Stage-2 external detail estimations
from isometric line drawings and photographs.
