_-= Summary =-_ Still from film footage showing interstage between the S-IC first stage and S-II second stage falling away during the Apollo 6 flight.

The image is taken from the perspective of the second stage and was recorded by a film cameras that were jettisoned soon after the first stage separation and though about 200,000 feet in altitude, were still below orbital velocity. They then reentered the atmosphere and parachuted to the ocean were they floated waiting for recovery. They were filmed at high speeds causing the slow motion look of the sequence when seen in a documentary.
