Well, Sven, there are some space age intersections with the Moon Islander, though they be coincidental to the epoch and proximity of the Apollo launch complex. Consider the two Florida Today articles below...

July 15, 1969

July 11, 1975

After posting this, I realized the print in the second article was too small to read, so expanded sections are sequenced below. BTW, the acronym "ASTP" is "Apollo - Soyuz Test Project"... this was the last Apollo mission, the first joint US/Soviet space flight, and the last US manned space mission until the first Space Shuttle flight on April 12, 1981. The launch mentioned in the article actually occurred on the afternoon of July 15, 1975.
