During entry preparation for an unsuited entry, the astronaut's spacesuits are stowed in a sleep restraint (sleeping bag) and lashed down in the center aisle by these ropes. A rope is a PBI (polybenzimidazole) fiber, 10-feet long, with plastic ferrules on the ends to prevent fraying. There are five ropes in all stowed at launch in locker A5.
This is one of the five ropes flown on the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon. It was transferred to the Smithsonian in 1970.
