After Gus Grissom and his crew successfully took the Apollo CSM aloft for the first time on Apollo 1, the next step on the road to the Moon is a manned test of the LM.
Apollo 2 will be an ambitious test mission, using a Saturn 1B to launch the first Block II CSM to fly, CSM-101, followed a day later by LM-2 on a second Saturn 1B.
The mission and flight plan is my best guess, as there's not a lot of info on this mission profile.
Huge thanks to @indy91 for helping me put this mission together!
