  • Some names are synonymous with the Apollo Missions - Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Jim Lovell. This documentary takes an intimate and personal look at the memories and experiences of nineteen individuals key to the Apollo Programme, unsung heroes and each every one. Working among a total workforce of over 400,000 people, they gives some insight to the true experience of working on one of history's most momentous challenges.

    First, this film is magnificent. I was old enough to watch, and appreciate, the entire Apollo programme. Most of my summer of '71 was sat in front of the family basement, watching Scott, Irwin and Worden went there, and back again. The mood that July was not as prinstinely hopeful as the interviewees, made up of all the support folks who made contributions that were as much fuel for the ships as the stuff in the tanks sitting at -259°F. People were distracted by Vietnam, the civil unrest that had characterised the previous years continued its relentless pace. Those of us who understood that Apollo, just 24 years after the end of the 2nd World War, lofted people into the heavens, experiencing for the first time the experience of another world's gravity well. And, we knew there were still 2 to go!
    There's been 'Hidden Figures' a film that I, criminally, have not seen. But, the folks on this movie are the authentic folks whom actors played on screen screen. As such, these 'unsung heros' finally have the opera to portray their feats for our appreciation and remembrance. Yes, I liked this movie doc very much. I think I will watch it again. Give it a go!

    The potential and kinetic energy of a 5 486 kg Apollo module at 100 000 m altitude and 11 200 m/s velocity is 5 486*(100 000*9.8 + (11 200)²/2) = 349 458 200 kJ.
    The potential and kinetic energy of the same 5 486 kg Apollo module at say 15 000 m altitude and 350 m/s velocity is 5 486*(15.000*9.8 + (350)²/2) = 1 142 560 kJ.
    The difference 348 315 640 kJ has been absorbed one way or another by the heat shield AVCOAT.
    If such AVCOAT can absorb 418 680.0 kJ/kg before getting vaporized, it seems you need 832 kg of AVCOAT in the Apollo heat shield. To be on the safe side, you need say 2 400 kg, but then 44% of the module is AVCOAT and there is no space for any human heroes

Please, if you severed electrical cables, cables attached to batteries and fuel cells, fuel cables and other attachement conduits of upper and lower LEM parts, you would create unbelievable shorts in the electrical circuits and that would blow up all fuses and possibly create fire and render the take off as an impossibility. If anyone does not believe me, then take a pair of scissors and go up to any electrical cable that carries electrical current to a table lamp and cut it as fast as possible, then you will get an electrical shock and you will create a short circuit and at best blow fuses up in your home.

      No, I understand a a high energy density silver zinc battery capacity to 390 watt-hours. Known science is not about belief or magic.
      *_"Also a small oxygen tank that lasted 71 hours"_*
      There were two oxygen tanks inside the LSS backpack collectively allow for roughly 6.5 to 8 hours of extravehicular activity. By Apollo 17 the PLSS had increased O2 tank pressure from 1,020 psi (7.0 MPa) to 1,430 (9.9 MPa). They were fitted with rebreathers.

      What is temperature in a vacuum? There are three ways heat can transfer and only two are possible on the Moon. The first is radiation, both directly from the Sun and from the albedo on the surface. The astronauts’ spacesuits were designed to reflect almost 90% of the light that reaches it, so very little heat would have transferred to the astronauts. The second is by conduction from the direct contact their feet had with the surface. This is also an ineffective process as regolith on the lunar surface doesn’t conduct heat well and the astronauts’ boots were insulated, slowing down conduction even further and the moon has no atmosphere. The normal kind of thermal transfer we see on Earth requires matter for the heat to transfer to. With no air, heat has no immediate way to escape a body. and so in respect of convection - the most efficient process of heat transfer - there is no medium for this to take place. All the Apollo missions to the Moon’s surface were carefully planned for lunar dawn, to ensure the surface hadn’t had time to heat up fully to its daytime temperature. The lunar day is just under 700 hours long. In addition to this, the angle of insolation ensured that the sunlight was not too strong. The temperature range from the Apollo 11touchdown to moonwalk to departure was between 250K and 280K or −23∘C to 7∘C.

      Yes it did - you can easily verify the dimensions.
      *_"the door swung open and the inside is exposed too the radiation and all the outside elements on the moon surface including 230 degrees Fahrenheit"_*
      As explained - there is no convection on the moon and the temperature was not 230 °F. What radiation are you referring to?
      *_"This moon walk happened inside a studio"_*

      With a life support system and bulky suit, taking risks like jumping as high as possible would be too risky to justify.

However, it would be foolish to do so given the gear and mission goals.
