Hidden underneath the launch pads of LC-39, sit two virtual time capsules. These "blast rooms" and "rubber rooms" were part of an elaborate emergency escape system for the Apollo astronauts and closeout and fire-rescue crews. In the event of an emergency during a launch countdown, team members could attempt to reach the surface of the mobile launch platform where they could then jump into a slide tube that would carry them underneath the massive concrete and earth launch pad. The slide terminated in a padded "rubber room" which was connected to this domed "blast room" by a massive steel door.

The floor of the "blast room" was mounted on springs and the team would strap themselves into seats to ride out any explosion that might occur on the pad above their heads. Eventually, the crew could exit the "blast room", via a tunnel that runs to the perimeter of the pad. Following the end of the Apollo Program, the slide tube was capped off and these rooms locked off and almost entirely forgotten. They sit today almost untouched since the end of the Apollo Program.
