  • Apollo 11 Launch (BBC Audio)
    Another in the series from audio recorded by Tim Furniss. Audio is from the T-5 minute point and lasts all the way to orbit.
    This audio has been heard before from other sources, but perhaps, not in this complete form.
    Audio is courtesy Furniss family and BBC
    Video is the launch feed (in this case CBS)
    Music is the theme from 2001 A Space Odyssey
    Captions and logos are imagined for the reconstruction

    This piece of music and these images were, perhaps, the greatest influence on my life. At my Junior school they even changed lessons so that I could watch the moonwalks. My only regret is that I cannot find the original BBC title sequence with the images (if I recall rightly) of a Saturn V lifting off, filmed from the gantry. I assume that they were images from Apollo 6, which was, despite being a partial failure, the one that produced the images that are reproduced in many films and TV series. When the moondust came to Bristol in November 1969, my mother queued with my for two hours in the rain to see it: she was underwhelmed... I was stunned. I've met plenty of astronauts of different nationalities. I have my own piece of moonrock (a couple of fragments of lunar meteorite) and I have worked on different missions, although, sadly, never a lunar mission, but hearing the music along with the images reminds me how it all began.

    Fantastic audio - always thought that Michael Charlton was forgotten for his "man on the spot" role - but he set the scene for non technical viewers. And of course James Burke was simply superb -never rushed and highly knowledgeable.

    For those of you who were too young to remember or not yet born, you cannot imagine the immense interest and pride this flight generated. Society literally stopped at launch, the landing and of course the moonwalk. Nothing today compares.

      I always get a kick out of listening to the astronauts describe the initial motions of the Saturn V. It really was some beautiful engineering to end up with a machine which tracked the intended trajectory but didn't overcontrol too much. That Saturn V! I guess it yanked, banked, and yawed the way it needed to.

    Also this was simulcast on BBC2 for those who had colour sets. BBC2 went colour in 1967, but BBC1 and ITV didn't go to colour until November 1969

    Love the BBC coverage, exspecially Mr.Burke. During the break between landing and EVA ,CBS showed a clip of him demonstrating donning an EVA suit that I found very informative and very amusing! That is a very fond memory. Thanks again LM5!

    It would have been one of my greatest wishes to see this start live! It's just a shame that I was only a little over a year old at the time. I still get goose bumps when I look at these pictures! It's amazing what the technicians of the time were able to do to successfully complete this mission.

      The other in/famous BBC broadcast was a whole stage production surrounding the landing, with commentary by Arthur C Clark, plus Judi Densch and Ian Mcckellan reading poetry and live music improvised by Pink Floyd. What a gem that would be to find on some reel somewhere. Only a couple scratchy audio fragments exist.

    Another great job, LM5. Did the BBC keep anything of importance from the 60s?? There doesn't seem to be very much then-current BBC space stuff on UA-cam.

      Thomas...they apparently wiped everything except some Apollo 8 which i posted and a snippet of 11. Have only seen 13...a bit of a news report and the splashdown...and 16s launch... that's the sum total of what i have seen that was recorded on the day as it were. This is why this audio is so important. Regards LM5

      From memory the BBC used to wipe everything up until the mid-70s as a cost-saving exercise so that tape-reels could be re-used, very difficult to find any BBC content from the 60s of anything.

    Does anyone have the wind limits for liftoff? How much wind blowing toward the tower was tolerable?

    • @ksracing8396
      @ksracing8396 4 роки тому +2

      18 knots at a 60 foot level, as written in the mission rules. On Apollo 7, there were a few guts up to 22 knots in the hours before the launch, but as they were only momentarily, they were accepted - not much to the liking of Wally Schirra...
