- At 4:17 p.m. EDT on July 20, 1969, NASA's "Eagle" lunar lander touched down on the surface of the moon. Six hours and 39 minutes later, Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong made history when he stepped on lunar soil and uttered his now-famous phrase: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

I was 9 years old when my mom woke me up to watch the first moon walk. It was about midnight, local time, and I wanted to go back to bed. My mom said " You have to watch it, you will remember it all your life!"- she was right. Here I am watching it again with tears in my eyes, too bad she is no longer with us.
Robert Kelley damn bro may your mom rest in peace
And then everyone clapped.
👏👏👏
RIP
Smart lady
Crazy to think that Armstrong's parents were probably born in the late 1800s and were then watching their son land on the moon.
Crazy is that they put a flag on the surface of the moon (any mission could drop a flag there, and stand it. A flag there do not prove cra.), put a mirror facing earth (facing earth!!!!) for laser measurements, but when the panoramic view is taken the "astronaut" 'forgets' to point the camera to earth and say "Hi Houston, there you are and here we are."! How can this happen? No earth shot?!!! Ok, I am old, it might be the reason why suddenly I have questions about it. No landing records, no records of the "takeoff" back in the moon's orbit, no records of the preparation (right altitude, right speed, how many laps it took for that?) back into moons orbit for the rendezvous, the trip back to earth and the preparation for getting into the earth's orbit and then into the atmosphere,... yeah, I am old.
@@jmvneto51 they did take pictures on other missons from the moon and the moon landing
@alpha beta You do realise the Russians had a probe in lunar orbit during the Apollo 11 mission?
If it was faked the Soviets would have to have been in on it along with thousands of other people.
BRG 0001 his mother and father was both born in 1907... both passed away 1990, sure they died proud parents too,.
@@yep.1106 Wow, Neil Armstrong's parents are only 10 years older than Michael Collins' oldest brother!
The countless hours of training, the failures, the deaths…to hear Armstrong say “The Eagle has landed” after all of that is truly truly amazing.
White, Chaffee and Grissom were smiling down on Neil and Buzz that day. I have no doubt that they would feel that their payment of the final measure of their devotion to this advancement of humanity was worth it all. All the astronauts including those today on the Artemis Project would say the same I have no doubt
Imagine live broadcasting across the world from the moon in 1969 sounds impossible
2:49:16 “Live from the surface of the moon” Hits me every time
🤣 it’s super fake
@@johnlardas2637 oh no, another one of those.
Stanley Kubrick: "That's good. Let's do another take. We have to get this right."
@@johnlardas2637 They even label "animation" "CBS News simulation", and they still think it's real... I can't wait till the books are open.
CBS was the only network that preserved much of their 2" video tapes. Other networks reused reels of tape for other purposes, like saving 50 cents. Thank goodness this has been preserved.
Interesting. How could they reuse it for an event now regarded as man's biggest step?
What's really shocking is that the BBC -- Britain's state broadcaster which should have all the resources it needs -- apparently doesn't have a saved broadcast of this Apollo 11 Moon landing. It's incredible!
ABC Australia also saved theirs.
Something very off has and is going on, I can't put my finger on it completely, but some conclusions I've come to are terrifying to the very soul
To reuse Apollo 11 landing tapes should be considered a crime.
Today is July 20 , 2021 , it is the 52nd anniversary of Buzz and Neil's historic landing. They are heroes forever.
Don’t forget Michael Collins, poor guy had to watch it all utterly alone in a tiny spaceship orbiting the moon…the ultimate solitary confinement.
@@mamavswild so true! If it wasn't for Collins, Neil and Buzz would have been stranded on the moon!
2:51:01 is what you came here for💜💜
I love how they didn’t understand what he said
@@RadiuI I found that amusing too.
"One small step for man. Giant step for mankind"
@@bk-bx2mi "for a man"
I was 2 months past my 18th birthday when this took place. At the time of the landing and subsequent moon walk I was working at a gas station for $1.20 an hour. At the moment Armstrong took his famous step I was cleaning the back window of a 1968 navy blue Ford Galaxy 500. The previous December on Christmas Eve I was also working at that gas station during the Apollo 8 mission to the moon. It was miserable weather (-20 degrees) and I was sick, working alone. My station manager happened to stop by and sent me home while he took over my shift (great guy). I was able to watch the coverage on TV and saw that famous broadcast of Earthrise and stirring Biblical reading made by the crew - unforgettable.
Hey Keith, great story, and great boss too!
@ Keith Popko.... it's real-life anecdotes, like yours, that make my day.... Thank you, sir.
That's so AWESOME ..I wasn't even born yet but I'm SO ENVIOUS !...Those were amazing times!
I love the different camera angles too, really incredible how they were able to have camera's behind and on the side moving with the spacecraft.
Thank you for sharing your memories, Keith. What an incredible moment. I hope you are well.
i remember being a kid and looking up at the moon and thinking "Man there's guys on the moon tonight" I thought it was pretty cool
Yeah too bad it was and still is complete and total horseshit.

@@drummaboi5879 and soon people will be "man I can't believe we're going to Mars!"...I mean don't worry about the fact we nor any other nation has returned to the moon. I mean we supposedly had the technology and even the NASA lapdogs say we had the technology and destroyed it, and now it's too hard to re-create. F^*cking people are so stupid and so completely gullible.
Fun Fact : NASA found out that the best way to fake the moon landing was to film it on the Moon
LMAO!!! It was real!!!!
Now days they can do it with the computer technology
Before the landing, its the animation before the real thing. Thumb up!!!
Hi
David Newcum 😂 “it was real” no it wasn’t. If the were able to la d on moon they’d have a fuel station by now...
I remembered it well. I was still young and living in the Philippines. During that time very few people had television in our town. We are the few people who had one. Most of the people in our neighborhood came to watch it in our house. Our house was packed with people. It was so historical. I cannot forget it. P.S. Now 95% in our hometown had television.
Had television? Ayusin mo grammar mo po.
Just 95%?
Al-Nahdah Nandu .-.
After many decades I'm still not convinced that having television is such a good thing ;)
@@charmrav5165 bastos
My dad was born the day the first moon landing took place...
Awesome!
It's really something that all of us, people from every country, can be proud of. It shows what humans are capable of. Awesome.
many people have been to area 51 since. what so amazing about going to Nevada?
Yes...countered by ending up in Iraq and Afghanistan destroying everything.
Shows that people are complete and total morons willing to believe whatever they’re told regardless of the facts slapping them in the face.
@@americatheblind5820 Thank God another who is wide awake! 100% PROPAGANDA HOAX.

Plus go to 153 news .net [just make that one word it is the link] where the TRUTHERS hang out for their videos.
CHEERS!
Capable of lying and believing whatever makes people feel superior without any questioning?
We were camping 20 July '69 that week. Dad rented a hotel room and a few hours before scheduled touchdown we crammed into that room and watched the entire thing unfold. What a fantastic day- 50 years ago. One of the coolest things Dad ever did! Thank you for that, Sir.
I was born in '74 and have been in love with the space program my entire life. On August 6th, 2012, I laid in a tent at a campground with my 7 year old and listened in real time while Curiosity performed its "7 minutes of terror". The fact that it was unmanned made it no less spectacular. A mind-boggling human achievement, made possible by these first steps.
That sounds like a great memory. I love hearing people's moon landing viewing stories x
I watched the whole thing, gripping stuff. I cannot imagine the excitement 50 years ago live. The first time in our 2 million year existence that one of us has not only left the planet, but actually landed on another body. Amazing.
Lol dude, we lose cell service in a low valley in a rural area but yet you think they live streamed Althea landings from the MOOON! Cmon man just think 🤔

I truly feel sorry for you son.
Thank you Stanley Kubrick for making it believable.
This is my first time ever seeing allot of older people above 50 in the comments lol
sebastian z 1982 seems like yesterday to me you’re next 😁
xD
sebastian z word!!! Lmao!! Goes to show you what were interested in
I was in grade school in Calif when men landed on the Moon. Everywhere you went there were TVs, including in my 4th-grade classroom. Sadly the camera technology was too bulky to afford HD quality tape of the first live Moonwalk. The live TV cameras were built specifically for the lunar landing and lacked the camera lenses, circuitry to give us high-quality live TV. Likewise, the motion picture cameras used for movies, documentaries were too bulky and unsuited for operation on the Moon. We now have tiny cameras capable of 4K video. The upcoming Artemis Moon program will be spectacular.
Watching this on July 20th, 2022. Thank you CBS for preserving and posting this piece of important history.
Thank you CBS for providing this historic moment, especially for those of us who weren’t yet born to witness it live. I’m amazed that other traditional networks of the time aren’t capitalizing on this, assuming they also covered it 50 years ago.
CBS was the go-to for this event in our house..and daily news as well.
@Jill Johnson I think what David Wonn is saying is that it's interesting that no other networks are offering up real time replays of their coverage from 50 years ago. Come to think of it, I don't remember ever seeing excerpts from any other network's coverage of Armstrong first stepping on to the surface of the moon. I would hope their coverage was recorded- but for some reason, it seems like CBS's coverage is the only thing one ever sees in later documentaries.
Greg Berg
Yes, you worded it better than I did, so thanks for helping to clarify. Furthermore, I’m surprised that no network gave up a Saturday to air this on TV as it was then, especially for older people like my grandma who do not go online.
Cable news networks used to air 9/11 on TV on anniversaries as it happened, so why not air a more triumphant event like this?
@@gregberg5559 I've seen ABC's coverage uploaded somewhere online, but yes, I'm amazed no one else has done what CBS has done here.
I can explain why NBC didn't do anything similar. In 1969, they had a very lax attitude toward preserving programming like news, game shows, soap operas, and talk shows. They routinely erased and reused videotapes. The moon landing and walk was no exception. Various audio recordings of NBC's television coverage made by home viewers are known to exist, but full video of NBC's coverage has apparently been lost to time.
You can tell that their reactions are completely legitimate, too, that they are just as impressed as the world.
Ah yes almost as if they’re playing their roles
@@joshallenforpresident 😂 ikr
Who is recording their reactions
“One giant leap for mankind!” Thank you CBS for sharing this
Thank you, CBS News, for making this available! I saw it live in 1969 by viewing WREC-TV Channel 3 Memphis, a CBS affiliate, and it's great to see it again, just as it was then. I felt some of the same thrills I did 50 years ago!
I’ve been wanting to watch this my entire life. Thank you.
With the Computer knowledge back than, this must truly have been the 7th wonder of the modern world. 07/21/19
Makes you wonder if we went to the moon using less technology than in a flip phone...Why have we not been back since.
LIMITED SPECIES what do we need to go back for ?
@@JohnJohnson-ez5ks build a base so that we can further explore space? construct a place to survive in case of nuclear or environmental fallout? it doesn't make you wonder?
Justin Fournier
John Johnson is a bot, whether “he” is breathing or part of an algorithm. Their offerings to these forums are similar. Programmed responses and questions meant to initiate doubts for your lower mind. Your higher mind knows this outer space show is ridiculous.
Earth is a closed system. We are all born knowing it.
Justin Fournier costs a lot of money to put people on the moon. Back in the 60s it wasn’t really about putting anyone on the moon. It was about power. If you guys read up a little bit on the internet we are actually going back to the moon. The technology we have today is far superior than it has been for 50 years so there was really no need. Yes building a base is what they are doing. Who does it first? We are in a new space race right now.//
how philosophical and intelligent these two news reporters were.
Thank you for this!! I was only 16 months old then, I’m 51 now... this is the first time I’ve ever seen it!
Cool!!!!
You may have watched it as an infant, maybe on your mommy's lap
Yes, I am almost the same age (born 4/5/68). Pretty incredible stuff!
I was 5 and this is one of the few memories I still have from that young age.
2:51:04 the most famous line in all of this.
Thanks
I was aboard S.S. President Cleveland almost half way from Yokohama to Honolulu. They played this on all the P.A. speakers all over the ship. Nobody said a word while they were descending. I'll never forget it.
I remember this happening. I was 3 years old. My dad was watching coverage on our old black-and-white TV set. I asked him “why do they keep showing the moon?” His reply was “Because people are going to land on it”.
EXACTLY! They never mentioned wind on the Moon. If there was, it'd be a HUGE discovery! If things don't add up, it's fake! The reason it flapped was because of wind at AREA 51!
Thanks you so much CBS News for making this piece of history available. A valuable document :-)
I was a month away from my 18 birthday. I still have vivid memories of watching all of this on CBS. I was so damn proud to be an american
I wish UA-cam had a "Love" selection, not just a "Like". I would definitely use it here. Thank you CBS for the awesome restoration of this video.
They do! The uploader can love special comments if they want. I do understand what you are saying though.
I was 12 years old on July 20, 1969. I watched coverage on a GE Porta-Color 12 TV. I was enthralled. I will never forget watching it all unfold live. I get emotional every time I see it.
I love hearing everyone's stories! Down to the tv model 😆. How lucky!
Good that CBS invested so much in the graphics and simulations.
My mum and dad don't remember this despite being 16 and 19 years old at the time.
I truly despair.
Wally Schirra showed nerves of steel on Gemini 9, when the rocket failed to launch, and during that dangerous moment he didnt deploy the ejection seats.During the flight he often complained that he would just press some button if those donkeys down there were still too stupid to calculate the trajectory.🤣
Wally was really cute.👍👍
The person speaking at beginning of the (long) clip is Eric Sevareid, one of the most successful journalists of 20th Century. A person of great culture and ability, I always enjoy listening to him.
I remember a "Frank & Ernest" comic strip at the time. An astronaut had just step foot on the lunar surface, looked behind him and saw a small alien standing there, asking with a smile, "You got 'Tang' G.I.?"
Tang was on every American manned space flight from John Glenn's 1962 orbital flight through the end of the space shuttle era, and I believe it's available on the International Space Station.
Tang also cosponsored some of the TV coverage of early space flights.
Tang has had a six decade relationship with the space program.
The first time in my life I stay up past midnight! I was 16. Uncle Walter was a family friend.
LOL kept waiting for more commercial breaks until I realized there probably weren't any
😂 imagine them cutting away from this momentous human achievement for a Calgon commercial.
So exciting all these years later. Thank you, CBS!

So exciting that CBS still wants us to believe we put a man on the moon. It was 100% fake!
Back when news anchors actually *knew* things and didn't fill airtime with meaningless blather. Anchors nowadays would have blabbed the entire way down and missed the landing 🤨
Very accurate, they'd be speculating things the entire time lol
I watched it live when I was 3, and watching it again at 55, and it's still amazing.
Well done to everyone who was involved with the moon landing yous all have my respect for life ✌💛🇬🇧👍 and to all those fools that denied the moon landing shame on you all 😡

I vividly remember this entire landing sequence. Everyone in the house started getting nervous about a half-hour before landing. That final five minutes was sheer nail-biting nervousness while we all squirmed in our seats and stared at the TV.
Just extraordinary. Thank you for posting. Ultimately propelled me into formal study in aerospace engineering for undergrad and early graduate work, from which I obtained two degrees. Once I fully understood the mechanics and dynamics it was totally understandable to me as to how it was done, but no less extraordinary.

This is the greatest achiement in my lifetime, amazing that we could pull this off with the "computers " of that era. A smartphone has a thousands more computing capacity than than the computer of that time. A year later I was fighting in Vietnam.
Very true. Where'd you serve sir ?
I continually watch this historic event sadly I missed this by 3 years as i was not born yet. Walter Kronkite's voice was so distinctive,calming and so professional.
He could very well be the very best journalist who ever lived, he never once mislead the american people based on anything you can imagine, politics, space flight, wars of the day, , i was 10 years old when this took place, my youngest brother Brian was born july 7 1969, we grew up in a small town Aberdeen Maryland, we lived nearly directly across the street from the now famous Cal Ripken , just an ordinary kid who's dad was a third base coach for the orioles, sure didn't know he would grow up to be one of the most famous ball players of all time, honestly it couldn't have happen to a more deserving person, kind to everyone, even when he was a kid. Mark i also watch these events because they bring back fond memories in my life events that literally shaped my life. Have you ever wondered why the picture was so grainy blurry, you couldn't make any detail out if your life depended on it, it never got any better only worse, tech. was actually much better than that, recently i found out why this was so. Oh if it was only the grainy picture, i would never thought another thing about it , however that was not the case. Fifty years have gone by and we never returned, rumors were surfacing that many of the astronauts were suffering from post traumatic syndrome, or PTS, It wasn't public knowledge, only in the medical community. Recently i learned what caused this in these strong willed brave men, and make no mistake it takes a brave person to go where no man has gone before , fear of the unknown is powerful, difficult to overcome , i will tell you just like a patient of mine told me, if you want to know what they saw on the moon view this channel ALIEN HUNTER, THIS MAN HAS UNREDACTED PHOTOS OF THE APOLLO MISSIONS, they are without a doubt the most disturbing images i have ever seen. What is living on the moon or has lived on the moon will blow you away, and i am not talking about the countless cities i mean real live [possibly] monsters, big creatures, apparently their is still active life on it now man size creatures, cities homes buildings, saucers parked at an angle in each driveway, on a platform , go see these things for yourself, i promise it will amaze you this has been kept from everyone this long, and frankly i can almost see why we were never told, totally shocking , walter would have a stroke. let me know what you think.
Dr. Smith you are very right in what you said. I always wondered why most of the astronauts never gave interviews or wanted to talk about their experience on being on the moon. Maybe the event in the end became too much for them personally and emotionally. And to make things worse the Artemis programme is set as it stands to have humans set foot on there as early as 2026 and most likely they will experience the same trauma as the others did which is so sad. I am so glad that the cbs coverage of the launch, lunar landing, the moonwalk and splashdown still exist today but the grainy picture is a sign of just how many years ago this event happened. Walter Kronkite reminds me of my home country's best newsreader and broadcaster sir alastair burnet. The was like walter. Professional, unruffled, always calm and spoke to us in a manner in which we all thought we depended on him and no no one else. Could you imagine him,walter, walter schirra and the late great astronomer sir Patrick Moore being together to present this wondrous event. My god that would be something...
2:31:00 Interesting to hear them talk about the things to come "in the next 60 years". We're almost there.
Even with the latest technology, my WhatsApp call not as clear as they are on the moon in 1969.
🙊
This is so cool. Takes. Me back to being 10 years old and totally amazed and proud
took the words out of my mouth, i also was 10, it took me 50 years to find out why they never went back, if you want to know view this one channel ALIEN HUNTER, HE HAS ALL THE PROOF VISUAL YOU CAN IMAGINE , caution , it will blow your mind .unredacted photos

I just watched Mars rover Perseverance landing lived streamed on one of the many UA-cam channels broadcasting it. It's nice to see so many young people get excited about it, I got the impression that many were emotionally moved by it. It's a shame that the distance and Mars atmosphere didn't allow for live camera footage through the descent like there was for the Moon landing, it would of been even more of a thrill for the newer generations. As much as I just enjoyed it, and the proud feeling it gave me as a human being at such a accomplishment for our species, it still doesn't begin to compare to the drama and emotion that we all experienced watching on that July day in 1969.
I’m just thankful to hear Uncle Walter again.
I can only watch it in balck in white in those days when I was 8 years old.Thanks for the great quality upload for this most important moment in world history.
This shaped my worldview watching this at 7 and a half years old. The next year "Chariots of the Gods" came out.
I was 15 years old! So totally inspirational!
When this was broadcast originally I fell asleep before the landing, according to my mom. Not this time.
I fell asleep after Armstrong stepped off the ladder. Not this time...lol

@@lindaeasley4336 I was in Cocoa Beach yesterday. I completely forgot about this 50yr history event. I could have went to the port. Shame on me.
The biggest scientific achievement in human history, nothing comes close
How about the creation of the wheel?
How about the discovery of antibiotics? Man landing on the moon (if true) benifited only a few individuals in history.
DewStorm88 - This was more a technological achievement than a scientific achievement. Newton’s Principia and Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory are examples of great scientific achievements.
The thing that strikes me is the gravitas in the announcers. Men, who despite being overwhelmed at the incredible moment, maintained their adult, professional, dignified manner. I can't think of a single newsman or woman today in 2020 who would not descend into histrionics, vulgar language and grandstanding.
I remember that little model! Glad Mom and Dad woke me up!
i was -23 when this happened live, and now i'm watching it at 31. brings back memories, truly a moment of all time

CHEERS!
So fake
In addition, the CBS radio coverage of this, hosted by Reid Collins with his remarkable resonant voice, was excellent as well and a bit more tuned in to the fact that this was not a nominal landing. He commented the communication difficulties were serious and endangered the landing and even speculated shortly after the landing that Armstrong must have hovered looking for a good place to land. Cronkite only said this after Armstrong's transmission that explained what he did in those additional 42 seconds.
I really want to listen to this but I cannot find any information on it, would it be possible for you to provide a link?
An amazing piece of history.
In the 50 years from 1919-1969: Ford Model T car --> walking on the moon
In the 50 years from 1969-2019: walking on the moon --> smartphones and cat memes
Ha! That about sums it up!
Well smartphones are more powerful than the computing systems that got man on the moon 😂
@@6jackace But those computing systems were basically created out of nothing. The fact that in 50 years we only made the computer more powerful is not very impressive, because we were already working off the basic computer concepts that they developed.
@@6jackace Yeah but they don't even take us outside our houses
Brilliant. Thank you.
Thanks CBS to make it public, not only for US, but for France too! (i.e. not blocking IPs outside US). Great event, did appreciate to relive it in France (late on night ;-), especially since I was 8 months old and remember absolutely nothing (we listened the radio, not watching the event at TV). Even though, my mum said that speaker was so enthousiast that we could believe we were actually on the moon!
Quick question though: is it me, or is it missing the end (both on live and on that UA-cam Video)? Anyway, that's MUCH better than nothing.
And after this mission, landing on the moon was suddenly “boring” and you guys stopped covering it when we were finally getting HD pictures back. 👏😑
Thankfully Elon’s revived it. I can’t wait for the new Moon and Mars missions.

God bless america i guess i was watchin in 69 that was badass tku
The people that filmed the moon landing had to be there a day early to set up
Craig B Sheeple believe anything on the Tell Lie Vision
Face palm.
Are you talking about the simulated images they used? Yeah, they used a simulation to give audiences a clearer view of what was happening.
Imagine broadcasting the most important sentence in human history and you didn't hear it because you're busy talking lol
Thank you so much for this. I am grateful to be alive in this time and age. Hopes up for 2024 and beyond!
@Gladamgone nah
@Gladamgone quit watching and believing dumb documentaries and you might gain a few IQ points. Then again i dunno. My mother did teach me "you cant fix stupid"
@Gladamgone bhaaaaa. Not baa...
Guys dont fight in my comment xD I mean its ok to fight but lets be civilized, cheers
@@Oliver-lg8qt nobody's fighting. Your comment sparked conversation. That's a good thing.
Nice to be 11 years old again for a couple minutes.
I was 9 when they landed. I remember, in detail, everything about that day.
So, Man is about to land on the moon. What a historic moment. My Dad--however--decides that that Sunday afternoon would be a capital day to take a little day jaunt in our Rambler Classic station wagon. (A few months later I was to enter 9th grade.) We five, I myself probably protesting, pop into the car and we are trundled out to the Virginia countryside. Here we are way out in the tulies and I, in our front bench seat, try almost vainly with our car radio to search through the AM static for ANY station that may be broadcasting the landing. I (and my Mother, too) was so upset that my Dad decided to do this. But we did things as a family, so what choice did I have. I think I barely heard the landing take place through the static.
I've loved Wally Schirra since Gemini
He’s on the fing moon! So amazing
I was 6 yrs old back then & remember my dad getting us kids out of bed to watch Armstrong make his historic first step. The Apollo & following space shuttle programs were two of the major factors that convinced me to become an aerospace engineer. Congratulations to all those who made this incredible achievement happen! We need more people like you in the world today.
Your dad did you a great service in helping create that memory. I was only 3. I remember going outside to look at the moon to see if I could see the astronauts. But I think it was one of the later missions. 17 probably.
I'm curious what an aerospace engineer does on a daily basis.
@@flyingroses126 I've worked on jet engines (mainly) & rocket motors (little bit) over my career. Ranging from combustion system, aerodynamic design, engine development testing, to overall systems integration. Day to day it's about applying your understanding of physics to solve very complex and challenging problems.
my pop did the same!..i was 5?
steve morford it’s a damn shame it’s fake
I'm guessing all the people who thought it was faked watched the CBS broadcast with all the simulations and animations and actor portrayals and didn't wait for the actual video feed. I am almost 100% sure that's how it started
The very first thought that came to my mind. Cbs did a blunder through these reconstruction images and made soke believe its all hoax.
It became hard for people to differentiate
I'm happy someone posted something.
Guess the real question is if we did how come noone is actively trying to build on the moon or how come they haven't shown new footage being as tho its 50 years later and we then done space travel for years. The Chinese are 25 years ahead of us and have robots in circulation now and we don't yet we landed in the moon ok
This is so interesting
Who else just blew in from For All Mankind?
I'm impressed by the CBS simulation that they have back in 1969!
What do you mean?
@@piecerich7628 the pre-landing models before actual touchdown.
Spectacular rebroadcast! This is the right stuff! 7-20-19
Who’s here just after the first episode of « For All Mankind » and be sure Alexis Leonov wasn’t the first man to land on the Moon?
I Remember running in and Out of My House looking up at The Crescent Moon
I’m Glad we are finally going back. I thought my generation would never live to see something like this ever again.
that's a neat image!
Legendary moment
Brilliant thank you
"The planting of the flag is not to say that we're claiming territory" yeah right...
You can’t lie with a statement, it’s disclosure
It was our declaration that us Americans beat the Russians to the moon!! When I was in 1st grade, our Weekly reader, (kids newspaper!) told us all about Ham, the space monkey. By summer, after 9th grade, man was on the moon. All those in between yrs. I saw & read about John Glen's trip around Earth 3 times; then all the Gemini & Apollo flights. Real or fake, ppl lost interest after Apollo 13. So yeah, Tom Hanks movie @ Apollo 13 is pretty accurate. Even if all that was fake, the Peoples' reaction here, & around the world, was accurate in that movie. I was a teen by then, & saw something @ it every day on the news. (B4 cnn & fox!)
I was 5 when my mom watched this but she is R.I.P😭
When asking my dad, who just immigrated from India the year before in 1968 for higher education and to pursue the American dream, here are his eloquent words about the moments around watching the landing, "I had travelled 60 miles, invited to stay over as a foreign student by a young host family of Roy Stewart, a scientist at famous Argonne Lab. Was glued to the TV all day long on 20th July of that famous period, in less than a year of my US arrival. It was the most incredible, gripping event of the century.. some 650 million from all walks of life all over the world glued to their TVs just like me... like one giant world family united together by the episode.. full of anxiety if this could really happen, fear if the mission will really end up in a crash, or if they reach there, what strange things will they discover... and will they even return successfully..?? Remember the computers of that era were way more primitive, as compared to even today’s pocket phones.. That was the most prestigious event for the world, and greatest reputation and regard for America in having accomplished the feat!! The most anxious event was the delay of some 20 minutes after landing was supposed to have happened, by which signals and photos appeared on the screen. And when that happened, the whole world went into a frenzy of clapping, crying and hugging that seemed to go on forever... unbelievable as it was!" Thank you CBS for sharing this moment of inspiration and hope for the new generations.
Fantastic archive. Truly amazing now, when we know how close to the margins these guys were particularly during the landing, to hear the overconfidence in Cronkite's voice as if all of this went by the numbers. Schirra should have listened to the landing coms from Aldrin to Duke more closely and would realized the 60 second callout was 60 seconds of fuel left. Interjecting that into the description certainly would have conveyed the danger in this to the audience. He even went as far as to say they had "gravy left in the tank" describing the margins left after landing. Less than 30 seconds of flight time left over a debris strewn landing area with no place to touch down doesn't sound like gravy to me. Even during 13's harrowing experience, Cronkite kept assuring the nation all of this was planned for and they had plenty of consumables so getting home would be no problem. It was either overconfidence or an effort to characterize the early space program as a low risk endeavor to the public to keep NASA cash flowing.
