Mercury-Redstone 4 rocket on the launch pad

This is MR-4 in the final minutes of the mission countdown on July 19. In the background is the rocket's service structure, which was moved to the edge of the pad at T-60. Shortly thereafter the "cherry picker" was stationed at the spacecraft's hatch to permit emergency egress of the pilot, if necessary. (Source: KSC)
