I was one of those teens that WASN’T “bored” with this and made sure to check tv for coverage of the mission at Hadley Rille🌗 first REAL geology mission with Lee Silver & Jack Schmitt educating Dave & Jim as well as Farouk El-Baz working with Al Worden for what to see from orbit🌗
Thank you so, so much! The greatest Apollo mission ever!!
It was a live prime-time television extravaganza: they landed between mountains on the moon, built a car on the moon, drove the car on the moon, photographed boulders the size of houses on the moon, all broadcast in color from the moon. All this amazing stuff and practically nobody watched.
I remember Al Worden’s guest appearance on Mr. Rogers! Apollo 15 continues to be one of my favorite missions. I wish the coverage in the day had been anywhere near this, but I’m grateful to you showing current and future generations this incredible achievement. (Oh, those ‘70s soundtracks! 😂)
Edit: The interview with Ann Scott - she is really smart and thoughtful!
I was never around then (obviously), but thanks for taking us back there… this really is superb, bringing history truly to life!
Ouch, you're making a lot of people feel old...
Superb! Thank you for all your tremendous amazing work 😎
@@david-joeklotz9558 welcome!
Thank God for your work to preserve history in such a convenient way (UA-cam)
Awesome mission !! Thank you !!
Thank you for all your work on these videos!
I'd like to say the graphics and tracking as well as the seamless move from video to graphics during the launch is excellent
I remember watching this launch while I was recovering from knee surgery, I had my tape recorder by the TV Speaker so I could record the NBC news audio of the launch. Unfortunately, through the years the tapes got lost. I wish I had them now! Apollo 15 was one of the few launches that the anchormen for NBC kept quiet during the launch so you could hear the entire ride to orbit with no commentary by the anchors. I wish I had those tapes now. By the way, the pieces with Mr. Rodgers were neat to watch. Have you read the book about the production of the lunar rover? I can't recall the title, but it is a great book. Everything else was great as always! Simon, you keep getting better and better! Keep all the productions going, can't wait to see what's next! -Jim
My favourite mission. Thank you.
Thanks for the video. Sorry I couldn’t find the live chat button to get back in after the launch to orbit sequence…
fantastic work as always
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you 🚀
eyyy a new video series to help me through the summer break of uni, looking forward to this!
Thank you. Really appreciate all the work you put into these videos.
@@alp-1960 thanks that means a lot
LM5… another beginning to another masterpiece!👌🏻🚀🌗
This command module was at wright Patterson last year. Worth the trip
It's at the NMUSAF as the entire crew was from the air force.
Good launch
Your best yet Simon! I absolutely LOVE the status bar on the bottom of the screen. Taking a page from SpaceX it seems! I just wish I was old enough to remember these flights (I was only 4 years old for this one). Thank you for putting these wonderful videos together to allow us to relive the past greatness of our space program. I only wish we had the commitment today in the USA that we did for the early flights of Apollo (I know the commitment waned after Apollo 11). I still have zero confidence that we'll return to the moon in my lifetime (no matter what they say about SLS). Please keep up the awesome work you do!
As usual, the effort you put into these videos is incredible. I was previously well aware of that shot below the engines (2:52:07) being undigitized, and it's great to see it here, as well as that shot from 39-5, possibly the clearest transfer of it yet.
I liked the addition of the progress bar as well. Do you think you'll be keeping that for Apollo 14?
Great work!
@@COUNTDOWN-vc1pb thanks..if you need the footage let me know and will link it to you
LM5 keeps launching. ⭐️!
Wow this video is so cool. I wonder if there is any audio to much of the raw material for this video? Just curious
@@rickardandreasson5095 the background film material NASA took pre mission as seen here was silent
When I watched the actual launch on tv I thought it was the slowest rising Saturn V I had seen yet. Think I was in junior high school. It seems it took 15 a while to clear the tower. And I thought cause it had the added load of the rover and much more scientific equipment. Worden 1st deep spacewalk. Adventurous. After Apollo 8 and 10. Fifteen my favorite.
Awesome brother 👍👍👍
This is a classic 👍❤️🙏 awesome
Simon: did you change your name to "Santa"? It feels like Christmas in July to see this latest offering, a bit more poignant with the recent loss of Joe Engle. EVA Day 1 on this mission produced one of my vivid memories of the Apollo program, seeing Hadley Rille from the tv camera mounted to the Rover when Scott & Irwin first parked near the edge and aligned the antenna. I was riveted to the chair in front of the television. This flight also taught NASA the value of providing a soft brush to clean the tv camera lens on the Rover, as the statically charged lunar dust would cling to the glass of the lens (and just about everything else, too), noticeably obscuring the tv picture, a brush being included for the last 2 lunar missions. Happily, mission CDR "Great Scott" is still with us. I hope he gets to enjoy your work. Well done once again.

hello there 👋
超級棒的團隊,超級棒的任務,超級棒的紀錄片,👍
How much repair had to be done to the launcher pad platform and tower after each launch?
Awesome!
Superb!
I missed all of it I was sleeping 😢
Wonderful piece of space history. Thanks for you dedication in compiling this video and sharing.😄🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍
@@phillipoconnor8815 you are more than welcome...glad you enjoyed it
Шикарное видео! Мне очень понравилось. Редкие документальные кадры. Респект вам!
Скажите пожалуйста, у вас есть текстовая стенограмма пресконференции после приземления Аполлона-11? Если есть, можете дать ссылку на неё.
Not sure if I have it - I lost my Hard Drive with all the Apollo 11 documents - not sure I have seen that transcript - sorry I cannot help
@@lunarmodule5 Благодарю!
The Johnson Space Center, is actually located in Clear Lake, Texas!
Bellissimo !!!!
Who did the PAO commentary from Houston this launch?
Man must explore.
Wow! ❤
When I closed the chat to watch full screen, I see no chat button for getting back into the chat to comment on the conversation. 😢
Where did you find the interview with Dave Scott at 33:00?!
one of them here - ua-cam.com/video/JhMTZnOEgF8/v-deo.html
Thank you, LEM5!
Into low earth orbit dudes.
