Yep, it's a great movie. And they call on God when they say "and God said let there be light." And yet, these astronauts never saw any of the lights in the sky except for the sun. Not a single star. The stars were given by God for our navigation. Yet they never saw one of them. What a movie!

I remember this as a kid at 7 years old. Although I didn't quit understand all the details but remember friends, teachers and parents briefly talking about it. pretty cool and wish I was older when it happened.
The last guy to walk on the moon was the late Gene Cernan. On his way back to the LEM to leave the surface, he bent down and scratched his daughters' initials into the lunar surface. It was the most incredible act of a father in history. Nothing can top it. For the next billion years his tribute to her will stand undisturbed.
As a father that is the greatest thing he did. Thought about her up there. Imagine the thought of your initials there!!! Your dad did that. Makes me want to cry!
@@crixxxxxxxxx I suppose that pluralizing "times" allows for more than a single year. Although, for that matter, how meant U.S. soldiers were killed in 1972? How many Vietnamese?
1) Take into account where the recording is taking place (in Houston). There's no reason to expect a delay when an astronaut speaks and Houston answers. The delay is in the other direction, when Houston speaks and an astronaut answers. 2) Many documentaries and other shows edit out the delays because the audience doesn't want the long pauses and wasted time. The delays are always correct on the original recordings.
The debate in Apollo was do we need a crew of three highly skilled aviator/pilots who receive some scientific training, or, in the case of Jack Schmitt, do we send a scientist to the USAF Air Education and Training Command for a year and train him to fly high performance jet aircraft. I think Apollo 13 showed that if things go wrong...very wrong, you needed as many skilled pilots as you can squeeze into the capsule! Regardless, I'm glad Jack Schmitt made it into space, but sorry that the Apollo program ended three flights short of what had been scheduled. It was a hell of a ride while it lasted.
even though we as Indians have made so much progress into space, but i am stunned to see how advanced USA was even 50-60 years ago....i mean they got live footages from that time also which we can't even think of.............hats off to them and their technology.................hopefully we can emulate them and in the coming future a force to reckon with in space missions........PROUD OF OUR "ISRO"
@@sushandkrishna7220 You cannot convince those who choose to bury their heads in sand. All those conspiracy theories have been convincingly debunked. They all have scientific explanations, including the flag-wave "gotcha" that ignoramuses like to cite. By the way, there were 6 successful human landing on the moon, all by American astronauts. Adding all their missions, a total of 12 men walked on the moon.
@@CallmeMaspr Are you aware that just like you, there are Pakistanis who believe that Chandrayan-3's moon landing was faked by Indians? I am sure you agree with them also, right?
@4:37 way that flag moves is very similar compared to the footage on the moon. And how they did a live broadcast is just crazy…we can’t even do that today without lag….
What's the big deal about "lag"? It's the speed limit of the universe--the speed of light. It takes at least 1.3 seconds for information of any kind to travel from the moon to Earth.
To all the people past and present that made it possible for us to explore the vast expanse of outer space and the moon I got mad respect for each and everyone....... However I have to say that Apollo 17 made it most funny.... He kept calling his buddy twinkle toes.... Wish there was more documentaries like this..... Godspeed to all of humanity past present and beyond
There's absolutely no room for uncertainty - Felix accomplished one of the most mind-boggling feats ever undertaken by a human being. I've replayed the video countless times, and each viewing continues to leave me utterly astounded.
Yep. You are totally "correct" No reason whatsoever to doubt these highly incredulous narratives. None whatsoever. Yep- I totally believe in NASA, even tho they have lied to us SO MANY times. So I just have one simple question to anyone who still believes in the Apollo stories. Question: " How did the footpads of the Apollo 11 LEM get cleaned of the moondust, which would have surely been there after the lunar landing?? Did moon fairies come out with feather dusters to clean them off before the cameras rolled??? Please tell me how. I want to know.
When you look at what was done by the last Apollo missions you see how much better it was to be an Apollo astronaut at the end of the program. They had all the toys and didn't need to waste energy figuring out how and where to land.
Though as pilots they wanted the "firsts". For example, Apollo 9 was considered a plumb mission even though it never left earth orbit. It was the first chance to fly the LM, the first flying machine designed to only work in space.
I didn’t know they was planning on going back to the moon. I’ve been wondering why Elon Musk hasn’t worked towards that. He has done great things and so far it always seems like he is successful. It will be awesome to land on the moon again.
Hopefully I can be one of them, trying to get my CS masters and then going to apply to be an astronaut, I should be done by the time applications are up again
As a kid we were there at the launch site. It was delayed. I remember my mom waking me up as I got to see the launch. The first nite launch and our last moon mission. Great memories. Thank you father.
Back in the early 90's. while I was still living in Austin Texas. The son and grand sons of Ronald Evans lived across the street from me. they had a room with Apollo and other NASA stuff. I got to meet Ronald Evans when he came to visit his family and talked with him for a bit. He was kind enough to autograph an encyclopedia that I had on the entry for the Saturn V. Wish I still had that book. Unfortunately it has gone missing over the years and I have no idea what happened to it.
I never missed a single lift off. In fact I was the hero of my grade school class because we had a portable TV that i could bring to school so my class could watch the launch.

The largest mass extinction of life on Earth was caused by 100,000s of years of continuous volcanic eruptions (Deccan Traps). The dinosaurs and many other species died due to climate changes caused by changes due to a meteorite impact.
Beautiful, sentimental documentary. Incredible images. Fantastic! Looking forward to really getting back into the space age with the upcoming lunar base.
Both Soviet orbital probes and the Indian moon mission have confirmed the remnants of the LEM on the moon. Not to mention the laser reflectors placed there.
@@TimBrown-e9lThe best images (by far) of the lunar surface were taken by NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter launched in 2009. They clearly showed the disturbed trails in the regolith as the astronauts walked on the Moon along with their equipment.
They said the future would be bright. We were led to believe that the future was going to be great. All the future brought was death and destruction. The future brought pain and anguish. People have changed. Everything has changed and not for the better. I miss the old days. I miss the days where people was nice. I miss the days when people smiled and enjoyed life. I miss those family reunions. Things was so much better. The people was better. Life was better. The way Americans stood together. The way people cared. There was a time when America was united. Why has things gotten so bad? Why has people lost hope? God and country has no meaning anymore. Take me back to those days.
I believe that everything in life is cycles. Before them, there was also a lot of pain and suffering with tragedies, natural disasters, wars, etc. Our bad luck is that we are in the exact transition between these cycles, at the same time that there is a lot of innovation, there is a lot of pain.

Cernan was the best moonwalker to speak with (and I've spoken with most of them). That man, I'll tell ya, he could read people better than anybody I've met, and he instantly could tell whether to ramp the conversation up to super-techy engineering talk, or tone it down to casual basics. Somehow, he instantly knew how technical to be (or not to be). I've only met him 3 or 4 times, but, each time was really great. He'd tell my wife exactly the types of things she'd want to hear (more simple stuff), then shift gears and tell me about how the guidance computers worked, then shift gears again and talk about how he felt emotionally while on the moon. The only thing I didn't like was that he kept bringing up his religion (and his religious experiences while on the moon) every time I'd talk with him. That's about the only thing he ever misread about, because I could have lived without those little segments of conversation. But, the rest... pure perfection. Another thing I learned was never to make heroes of anybody. I mean, not that I really ever did. But, like I tell my kids, just judge people on the stuff you know. If you are a Michael Jordan fan (or any other sports person), fine, but don't admire him for who he is as a person, just admire his abilities on the basketball court. And, if you admire an astronaut, just admire him for his accomplishments in space, not because of who he is as a person. Not that Cernan is really bad or anything, but, there are some aspects of his personality that are very "human" (that I won't get into), and it's best to stick with admiring as the astronaut he is (er, was), and not necessarily judge anything (good or bad) outside of that topic.
@@rockethead7 Cool account, thanks for sharing. Great that you met him on several occasions. I never met him. Was born in 68 so too young to remember Apollo 10 and 17. I remember watching him in the broadcast booth during the first Shuttle launch.
@@rockethead7Man, I went to SpaceFest the year after Cernan died and the guy running the booth that sells photos for autographs started talking to me about him and how Cernan liked to get people together for golf at such events (which were often held near golf courses). And then he asked me if I had ever met Cernan, and I said no. The guy looked genuinely sad for me that I would never get to experience Cernan in person.

Intersting tech with the field scan video cameras. In 1972, color video cameras were massive. They figured out how to make it light by using a black and white camera that shot three images thru primary color filters and interlaced them to make a video frame. Works well, but it does cause color artifacts called the "Harris Shutter Effect" when objects move between images in each frame. This is why the LM liftoff images have the camera artifact colorful sparks.

@@scootermacarthy5990 The rover was carried in the empty quadrant 1 bay of the lunar module’s descent stage. It was deployed using a system of pulleys and braked reels using ropes and cloth tapes. The rover was folded and stored in the bay with the underside of the chassis facing out. One astronaut would climb the egress ladder on the LM and release the rover, which would then be slowly tilted out by the second astronaut on the ground through the use of reels and tapes. As the rover was let down from the bay, most of the deployment was automatic. The rear wheels folded out and locked in place. When they touched the ground, the front of the rover could be unfolded, the wheels deployed, and the entire frame let down to the surface by pulleys. The rover components locked into place upon opening. Cabling, pins, and tripods would then be removed, and the seats and footrests raised. After switching on all the electronics, the vehicle was ready to back away from the LM. There are illustrations on pages 135/136 in the Haynes Apollo manual published in 2019, which show how the rover was folded up and stored and on page 199 a diagramme which shows how it was deployed on the surface.
Back then there was a Rover dealership on the moon, so they just bought one and sold it to the Martians before they left. The Martians were advanced, they converted it so that it could run on cheese.
It's incredible how the astronaut can sing while running and hopping on the moon in that bulky suit without a hint of exertion in his voice! As a singer, I'm impressed!
7 hours of oxygen as well while they are out and about. i don't know too many scuba divers that sing like idiots when they are hundreds of feet away from safety let alone 3 days..
I love the joy and polite expressions, serious stuff but with good humor. No 4 letter words (eh em, earlier missions), and even Kosher at times: 49:00 . So much better and more real than the over scripted NASA of today.
Well, Cernan did get in trouble on Apollo 10 for using some blue words on live audio. Had to issue an apology. I think he had that in mind when he says, "Golly!"
I was glad to grow up then to watch and dream about space. But they got caught up in the “Going to Mars” idea,spent all their time doing the shuttle thing. IF they had started working on building a permanent base on the moos we could be living ,working and launching from their as our “Space Station”.

The thing that strikes me is the confidence of the men on the mission. They are kicking boulders, falling over and jumping around. I would be so terrified of tearing my suit or breaking something. This might seem like an odd comment, but I hope we have that confidence going back to the moon and beyond. We live in a world of anxiety these days and I really hope Artemis and its partners can be bold.
Good point about the suits. There is a just hot off the press GAO report that sites space suit development as one the the potential show stoppers for the Artemis III Mission.
My guess is they’re buzzing with adrenaline and excitement, almost to the point that they’ve lost their sense of danger. You can really hear the excitement in their voices when they first entered the luna orbit. Can’t say I blame them though, what an experience!
These are mainly hardened folks just built for this. They don't let all the small things (that could be catastrophic) get to them. If they did half the missions would be aborted due to anxiety caused by overthinking. Lots of things we do in our world are actually pretty dangerous, but if you don't overthink them the risks are greatly minimized.
The earlier moonwalks were far shorter, less ambitious in scope, and the astronauts much more careful with the suits and other equipment because they didn't know how well things would hold up in that environment. Apollo 11's "contingency" plans for a quick exit if need be were a good example. With each mission they got more comfortable with the technology, more bold in their actions, and less formal in their behavior during the EVA's. By Apollo 17 the moon walkers were downright playful and giddy. In other words, going to the moon had became more routine, which is part of the reason Apollo 18 - 20 were cancelled. We'd been there, done that, it had become routine, taxpayers were losing interest and questioning why we were spending the money to keep going back.
I remember going to the Smithsonian Air and Space museum. There I saw a large book in a glass case opened. I saw that is was the source code of the computers on board. I find it hard to imagine software development in the 60's
Watched all the Appollo missions on TV, but Appollo 17 was my Ultimate favourite, albeit the last in the series. If we could do what we did then, imagine what could be achieved now.

Regardless, I'm glad Jack Schmitt made it into space, but sorry that the Apollo program ended three flights short of what had been scheduled. It was a hell of a ride while it lasted.

There's absolutely no room for uncertainty - Felix accomplished one of the most mind-boggling feats ever undertaken by a human being. I've replayed the video countless times, and each viewing continues to leave me utterly astounded.
Felix ?
Yep. You are totally "correct" No reason whatsoever to doubt these highly incredulous narratives. None whatsoever. Yep- I totally believe in NASA, even tho they have lied to us SO MANY times. So I just have one simple question to anyone who still believes in the Apollo stories. Question: " How did the footpads of the Apollo 11 LEM get cleaned of the moondust, which would have surely been there after the lunar landing?? Did moon fairies come out with feather dusters to clean them off before the cameras rolled??? Please tell me how. I want to know.
After our chandrayan 3 I watched this it's a greatest achievement 🎉
Really
Really bro
When you look at what was done by the last Apollo missions you see how much better it was to be an Apollo astronaut at the end of the program. They had all the toys and didn't need to waste energy figuring out how and where to land.
And, they could go to the grocery store, the movie theater, the sports arena, whatever, without being mobbed (like Aldrin and Armstrong always were).
Though as pilots they wanted the "firsts". For example, Apollo 9 was considered a plumb mission even though it never left earth orbit. It was the first chance to fly the LM, the first flying machine designed to only work in space.
This was amazing. My salute to these extraordinary and brave men who tasked upon themselves to quench the thirst of human curiosity and exploration.
Indeed. Incredible effort.
It's a credit to them, at least they gave it a good try.

Back in the early 90's. while I was still living in Austin Texas. The son and grand sons of Ronald Evans lived across the street from me. they had a room with Apollo and other NASA stuff. I got to meet Ronald Evans when he came to visit his family and talked with him for a bit. He was kind enough to autograph an encyclopedia that I had on the entry for the Saturn V.

They said the future would be bright. We were led to believe that the future was going to be great. All the future brought was death and destruction. The future brought pain and anguish. People have changed. Everything has changed and not for the better. I miss the old days. I miss the days where people was nice. I miss the days when people smiled and enjoyed life. I miss those family reunions. Things was so much better. The people was better. Life was better. The way Americans stood together. The way people cared. There was a time when America was united. Why has things gotten so bad? Why has people lost hope? God and country has no meaning anymore. Take me back to those days.
Woke progressivism happened..
I believe that everything in life is cycles. Before them, there was also a lot of pain and suffering with tragedies, natural disasters, wars, etc. Our bad luck is that we are in the exact transition between these cycles, at the same time that there is a lot of innovation, there is a lot of pain.

Read Cernan's book about his life and this mission. Lots of great insights into Apollo.
It’s the best of the three Apollo astronaut autobiographies that I have read.
Cernan was the best moonwalker to speak with (and I've spoken with most of them). That man, I'll tell ya, he could read people better than anybody I've met, and he instantly could tell whether to ramp the conversation up to super-techy engineering talk, or tone it down to casual basics. Somehow, he instantly knew how technical to be (or not to be). I've only met him 3 or 4 times, but, each time was really great. He'd tell my wife exactly the types of things she'd want to hear (more simple stuff), then shift gears and tell me about how the guidance computers worked, then shift gears again and talk about how he felt emotionally while on the moon. The only thing I didn't like was that he kept bringing up his religion (and his religious experiences while on the moon) every time I'd talk with him. That's about the only thing he ever misread about, because I could have lived without those little segments of conversation. But, the rest... pure perfection.
Another thing I learned was never to make heroes of anybody. I mean, not that I really ever did. But, like I tell my kids, just judge people on the stuff you know. If you are a Michael Jordan fan (or any other sports person), fine, but don't admire him for who he is as a person, just admire his abilities on the basketball court. And, if you admire an astronaut, just admire him for his accomplishments in space, not because of who he is as a person. Not that Cernan is really bad or anything, but, there are some aspects of his personality that are very "human" (that I won't get into), and it's best to stick with admiring as the astronaut he is (er, was), and not necessarily judge anything (good or bad) outside of that topic.
@@rockethead7 Cool account, thanks for sharing. Great that you met him on several occasions.
I never met him. Was born in 68 so too young to remember Apollo 10 and 17. I remember watching him in the broadcast booth during the first Shuttle launch.
@@rockethead7Man, I went to SpaceFest the year after Cernan died and the guy running the booth that sells photos for autographs started talking to me about him and how Cernan liked to get people together for golf at such events (which were often held near golf courses). And then he asked me if I had ever met Cernan, and I said no. The guy looked genuinely sad for me that I would never get to experience Cernan in person.
Its all fake man. Look into it.

Intersting tech with the field scan video cameras. In 1972, color video cameras were massive. They figured out how to make it light by using a black and white camera that shot three images thru primary color filters and interlaced them to make a video frame. Works well, but it does cause color artifacts called the "Harris Shutter Effect" when objects move between images in each frame. This is why the LM liftoff images have the camera artifact colorful sparks.

Great footage. I wonder how the rover was carried there. Was it in need of assembly or what and where was it stored and moved from?
Yes my Google broke while I was on the internet thingy. My repair tech will try to repair it today. Thanks for your help!
@@scootermacarthy5990 The rover was carried in the empty quadrant 1 bay of the lunar module’s descent stage. It was deployed using a system of pulleys and braked reels using ropes and cloth tapes. The rover was folded and stored in the bay with the underside of the chassis facing out.
One astronaut would climb the egress ladder on the LM and release the rover, which would then be slowly tilted out by the second astronaut on the ground through the use of reels and tapes. As the rover was let down from the bay, most of the deployment was automatic. The rear wheels folded out and locked in place. When they touched the ground, the front of the rover could be unfolded, the wheels deployed, and the entire frame let down to the surface by pulleys.
The rover components locked into place upon opening. Cabling, pins, and tripods would then be removed, and the seats and footrests raised. After switching on all the electronics, the vehicle was ready to back away from the LM.
There are illustrations on pages 135/136 in the Haynes Apollo manual published in 2019, which show how the rover was folded up and stored and on page 199 a diagramme which shows how it was deployed on the surface.
It was stored in a warehouse and moved onto the movie set for filming. Use your brain
Back then there was a Rover dealership on the moon, so they just bought one and sold it to the Martians before they left. The Martians were advanced, they converted it so that it could run on cheese.

@smeeself
The thing that strikes me is the confidence of the men on the mission. They are kicking boulders, falling over and jumping around. I would be so terrified of tearing my suit or breaking something. This might seem like an odd comment, but I hope we have that confidence going back to the moon and beyond. We live in a world of anxiety these days and I really hope Artemis and its partners can be bold.
Good point about the suits. There is a just hot off the press GAO report that sites space suit development as one the the potential show stoppers for the Artemis III Mission.
My guess is they’re buzzing with adrenaline and excitement, almost to the point that they’ve lost their sense of danger. You can really hear the excitement in their voices when they first entered the luna orbit. Can’t say I blame them though, what an experience!
These are mainly hardened folks just built for this. They don't let all the small things (that could be catastrophic) get to them. If they did half the missions would be aborted due to anxiety caused by overthinking. Lots of things we do in our world are actually pretty dangerous, but if you don't overthink them the risks are greatly minimized.
The earlier moonwalks were far shorter, less ambitious in scope, and the astronauts much more careful with the suits and other equipment because they didn't know how well things would hold up in that environment. Apollo 11's "contingency" plans for a quick exit if need be were a good example. With each mission they got more comfortable with the technology, more bold in their actions, and less formal in their behavior during the EVA's. By Apollo 17 the moon walkers were downright playful and giddy. In other words, going to the moon had became more routine, which is part of the reason Apollo 18 - 20 were cancelled. We'd been there, done that, it had become routine, taxpayers were losing interest and questioning why we were spending the money to keep going back.
I remember going to the Smithsonian Air and Space museum. There I saw a large book in a glass case opened. I saw that is was the source code of the computers on board. I find it hard to imagine software development in the 60's
