AS-101 (spacecraft)
AS-101 (also designated SA-6) was the sixth flight of the Saturn I launch vehicle, which carried the first boilerplate Apollo spacecraft into low Earth orbit.〔(NASA: ''SA-6'' )〕〔(NSSDC: ''SA-6'' )〕 The test took place on May 28, 1964, lasting for four orbits (about six hours). The spacecraft and its upper stage completed a total of 54 orbits before reentering the atmosphere and crashing in the Pacific Ocean on June 1, 1964.
The flight experienced a single anomaly: one of the eight first-stage Saturn I engines shut down early, but the guidance system compensated by burning the remaining seven engines longer. AS-101 was followed by four more flights to verify the launch aerodynamics of the Apollo Command and Service Module and its Launch Escape System (LES) tower.
==Boilerplate Apollo ==
The first five launches of the Saturn I had carried Jupiter-C nosecones, a proven design which allowed engineers to focus on development of the rocket. To verify the launch aerodynamics of the Apollo Command/Service Module (CSM), AS-101 carried BP-13, a boilerplate spacecraft which weighed and duplicated the size and shape of the CSM, and a dummy Launch Escape System (LES) tower. A flight-weight Command Module weighed around .〔 The boilerplate spacecraft was instrumented with 116 sensors reading strain, pressure, and acceleration.
