This channel is CRIMINALLY overlooked and undersubscribed. Mr Homemade, thank you for your hard work. This content is amazing in both research and production.
All of these docos have production values better than 99% of anything made for tv. Research, source material, editing, score, voice over.....the works. Kudos man, simply unreal 👏
I don‘t know how I got here but I am stuck at your channel for 3 days now and I am watching everything. Seeing the LEM and CM maneuvering here was one of my highlights, along with the tracking shot of the Saturn V launch of Apollo 8. I have never seen this material before (even though I consider myself a space geek) and your usage of it to tell the story and context of all these missions is breathtaking and makes these events feel fresh and as awe inspiring as they must have been 50 years ago. I am glad I have some of your videos left to watch. I am also glad I discovered your Patreon page in the description of your newer videos - you should update the description of you older ones to include that. I guess I will not be the only one who feels the urge to give something back for the excitment, enlightenment and evening filling entertainment you did provide. Keep up the amazing work!
You do some of the best Apollo documentaries I've ever seen. I don't know how I didn't discover your channel sooner, but I just wanted to say, this is wonderful and outstanding work. Especially for the missions (like Apollo 9) that are largely forgotten in the public consciousness, and shouldn't be.
Homemade Documentaries should be NASA'S official archivist. I never get over how genuinely exciting these documentaries are to watch. It feels exactly like watching an epic action/adventure movie.
Love these home -made docs!!! The research is unbelieveable. I'm 58, and at that time was an 8 year old kid not really grasping the enormity of it all. What a generation! Thanks for the detailed look back.
Thank you Sir for this excellent series. Your Apollo documentaries are fantastic. I grew up during the Apollo program and watched as much as I could on TV. Even at school we always had a TV in the classroom during the Apollo missions. My family lived in Houston so we visited the NASA Manned Spacecraft Center and mission control several times. I actually saw Michael Collins there during one of our visits; I was about 9 years old but remember it very clearly. I actually met James Irwin at our church shortly after he walked on the Moon during the Apollo 15 mission. Your documentaries cover so much more than I have ever seen and bring back some of the most awesome memories of my childhood.
That was excellent. Apollo 9 gets lost in the glare of Apollos 8 and 11. You did a great job of telling their story. I'm looking forward to your Apollo 10 video next, another groundbreaking mission that is too often overlooked.
Growing up during the 60's, I was a "Space Fan". I lived space in my imagination and absorbed everything that I could. Later in my life I was fortunate enough to be hired by a contractor at NASA Dryden at Edwards A.F.Base, CA. It was fun.
Fantastic to hear the soundtracks from just about every great sci-fi movie ever produced. The perfect complimentary background to this superb production. On the verge of tears numerous times. Well done!

There is something about the Saturn 5 that the space shuttle just doesn't have. What a beautiful vehicle.

I have build hundreds of engines, each time I fire one up I have a little pit in my stomach, and I'm good at my job,

The speed at which they rolled out missions in 1969 as astonishing...and that was 50 years ago!
Apollo 9 is criminally underrepresented. Excellent documentary on Spider & Gumdrop!

editing error at the end: patch appears, disappears, then fades back in.

Apparently Jim was devastated at the loss of Ed. White...they were very close...Jim died in October 2022...
Outstanding documentary. It was the best I have seen of a single mission. Great job!

I remember growing up with this, still amazing.
