All three stages separated successfully and their engines performed as planned. This was an unmanned test flight intended to prove that the complex Saturn V rocket could perform its requirements. On November 9, 1967, Apollo 4, the first test flight of the Apollo/Saturn V space vehicle, was launched from Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39. At the end of the flight, the unmanned Apollo spacecraft reentered and proved that it could survive the intense heat generated during a high-speed return from the moon. The third stage also restarted in orbit, which was a requirement for lunar missions.
