Souvenir swatch containing a portion of the crystals removed from Lunar Module #5 during the first on-pad launch vehicle transfusions in July 1969, which removed these problematic crystals from the glycol solution in the spacecraft’s cooling system. Swatch measures 2.5 x 2.5 and is affixed to an 8.5 x 11 copy of a newspaper article regarding the ‘minor problems’ of a leaky nitrogen line and the formation of these crystals in the cooling fluid. In fine condition, with the swatch becoming slightly detached. Accompanied by a copy of an article from an original Grumman news release detailing the entire launch vehicle transfusion work project of the crystals being removed from LM-5/Eagle.
