    These old Apollo videos literally make me weep... with pride, and frustration, that we gave it all up because pop stars and disco were more exciting to the public than space travel. Funding dried up. Let's hope SpaceX will restore the thrill that we had as young folk in this glorious era.

    So this mission was in May of 69. Apollo 11 was in July. So whatever changes they had to make to computers or other hardware had to be discovered on the mission, studied, fixes devised and implemented in 2 months. And the Apollo 11 Saturn V was already assembled and maybe even wheeled out to the launch pad, meaning they had very limited access to the CSM or LM. Even though I am an engineer myself I can hardly imagine the kind of stress these guys were under. The consequences of a screw up were all very fresh in their minds after the fire on Apollo 1. No wonder none of those engineers never saw daylight for most of the 60s and divorce rates were sky high. Then 2 years later it was all over and probably half of them were let go. It is an amazing thing they accomplished, and they should all be very proud, but in some ways it really must have been hell.

The prevailing attitude was, "this may be a small component I'm working on, but no way it's going to fail on my account." I wish we could come together toward a common goal in such a way with other things.

    They sure glossed over the fact that the tumbling that occurred when the ascent stage separated from the descent stage was due to pilot error.

    I don't think the 'roll anomaly' on separation of the descent and ascent stages of the Lunar Module was as straightforward as indicated in this film, neither was it a systems failure. During descent stage separation, the lunar module began to roll unexpectedly because the crew accidentally duplicated commands into the flight computer which took the LM out of abort mode, the correct configuration for this manoeuvre. The live network broadcasts caught Cernan and Stafford uttering several expletives before regaining control of the LM. Decades later, Cernan said he observed the horizon spinning eight times over, indicating eight rolls of the spacecraft under ascent engine power. Recordings from the flight do not support this dramatic memory. While the incident was downplayed by NASA, the roll was just several revolutions from being unrecoverable, which would have resulted in the LM crashing into the lunar surface. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_10#Mission_highlights See also www.history.com/news/apollo-10-disaster-apollo-11-practice-run www.theregister.com/2019/05/21/apollo_10_part_two/

    The SIZE of the balls on these guys!! Apollo: The greatest peacetime acheivement of USA and their greatest mistake was not carrying out the remaining planned flights. Those extra flights could have been an opportunity for USA to make real diplomacy with the then USSR by inviting a Russian cosmonaut on the last two flights. After all, they were planned a joint mission anyway, the Apoolo/Soyuz mission. A real lost opportunity. Great shame. And that is only the political loss...there was also a scientific loss for further research. Maybe there was a fear of something going wrong, like another Apollo 13 type accident or worse, such as being stranded with no hope of rescue. Maybe they thought they just didn't want to 'push their luck' and 'tempt the Gods'. All comments welcome and let's discuss!!

    It would have been very neat to see them fly the Apollo 18, 19, and 20 missions, as well as the theoretical missions that flight controllers presented, to go to the dark side of the moon (according to Gene Kranz's book, 'Failure Is Not An Option'). Having at least one Russian cosmonaut be the LM pilot on an Apollo mission would have been great, it would have been a massive positive move for US relations toward Russia. The fact that we gave all this up before we had barely even scratched the surface.. so unfortunate.

    Manned lunar landings were a propaganda coup after coming second in virtually every other field of spaceflight. Too expensive, too risky, too useless to carry on. The Soviets had already pointed the way to the future of space exploration with rovers, space stations and planetary landers. Those kind of missions have become the standards of today. Russian space stations and US space shuttles would then turn out to be congenial projects if you remember the fabulous Mir.

Many people say manned spaceflight is costly and dangerous, but given the amount of money the U.S. spends on its military every single year while NASA's budget doesn't reach 1 per cent of the entire American national budget, one can say that space exploration is not priority to politicians because there isn't oil or something similar in other celestial bodies, because if it had, nations would already bases on the Moon and Mars for decades! Mars have water in solid state and the Moon could become a source for mining Helium-3, which it could become an alternative fuel source, but nothing of these spark the eyes of governments, because the profit wouldn't be as quickly as oil extraction.
