Summary edit

Description

Seated at the witness table before the Senate Committee on Aeronautical and Space Services, chaired by Senator Clinton P. Anderson, on the Apollo 1 (AS-204) accident are (left to right): Dr. Robert C. Seamans, NASA Deputy Administrator; James E. Webb, NASA Administrator; Dr. George E. Mueller, Associate Administrator for Manned Space Flight, and Maj. Gen. Samuel C. Phillips, Apollo Program Director. Astronauts Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Edward White and Roger Chaffee died tragically inside the Apollo 1 Command Module during a preflight test. The astronauts were unable to exit the spacecraft when a fire, most likely caused by faulty wiring and exacerbated by an oxygen leak, broke out in the Command Module.
