A museum display on the USS Hornet aircraft carrier showing five black conical Apollo command module capsules mounted on a white riveted metal hull. The capsules are arranged in a scattered pattern and labeled with mission numbers: Apollo 8, 10, 11, 12, and 13. Above the display, text reading 'AIRSPEED TEMP BULB' is visible on the ship's structure. The historic carrier served as the primary recovery vessel for several Apollo missions, including the famous Apollo 11 moon landing mission.
