These old school documentaries, the narration, the music... so awesome
old skool science fiction
@danKlanweb - that klan hood blocks your view
These old Apollo videos literally make me weep... with pride, and frustration, that we gave it all up because pop stars and disco were more exciting to the public than space travel. Funding dried up. Let's hope SpaceX will restore the thrill that we had as young folk in this glorious era.
My same thinking...
Elon's SpaceX may be FULL of surprises!
Would not surprise me, at all, to hear a SpaceX flight will make it to mars first.
@@dantyler6907 There's so many companies, except SpaceX...
@@dantyler6907 SpaceX is a NASA contractor as thousands of other companies.
Space program funding was at a very high level to get to the moon. Cost of Vietnam war, Great Society programs and desire for some to move on to Skylab and Space Shuttle played bigger roles than disco.
It was phenomenal. I’m watching a video about the lunar module computer. It’s absolutely mind blowing!
I love the music in these old docs. "Hey music guy, here's a Mellotron, a tape delay and a theremin... See what you can do..."

Amazing how fast they progressed. In March the lunar module was tested 1st time in earth orbit (Apollo 9), in May in moon orbit and in July they landed on the moon.
Really! U buy that?!
All of this work started with Mercury program in 1959,continued with Gemini since 1964..Apollo since 1967,so it wasn't that fast,it was a continuos work since 1959 until 1972.
Wow
@@appliedcommonsense4735 Most people are far smarter than you.
I get your sarcasm 🤪
Apollo 10 is one of the most underrated spaceflights in history (in my opinion)
@Nick Bruno I think it was the third manned Saturn V in fact, and the fifth in total.
It was the fusion of the testing achieved by Apollo 8 and 9, getting 15 miles from the lunar surface.
Paul Abraham Apollo 10 was the third manned Saturn V flight. The first was Apollo 8, the second was Apollo 9. Apollo 7, the first manned Apollo flight, used the Saturn 1B.
Literally everything on UA-cam is underrated. Literally.

What a trip seeing the Earth all by itself in the blackness of space like that. I was 3 1/2 years old in Ohio in that earth shot & sitting here now watching this at 54 years old & the earth has hardly aged.
For a planet that has 4 billion years old, what are mere 50 years!
I was a month shy of 5 years old when this happened! I never forgot the sound of Tom Stafford's voice! He's still my favorite astronaut!
I have always liked Tom for his genuineness and his friendship with Soviet cosmonauts. During a press conference after one of his Gemini missions, he referred to the tracking station in "How-are-ya," a place often pronounced "Hawaii."
@@brianarbenz1329 Also how my grandparents pronounced it
So this mission was in May of 69. Apollo 11 was in July. So whatever changes they had to make to computers or other hardware had to be discovered on the mission, studied, fixes devised and implemented in 2 months. And the Apollo 11 Saturn V was already assembled and maybe even wheeled out to the launch pad, meaning they had very limited access to the CSM or LM. Even though I am an engineer myself I can hardly imagine the kind of stress these guys were under. The consequences of a screw up were all very fresh in their minds after the fire on Apollo 1. No wonder none of those engineers never saw daylight for most of the 60s and divorce rates were sky high. Then 2 years later it was all over and probably half of them were let go. It is an amazing thing they accomplished, and they should all be very proud, but in some ways it really must have been hell.
It was.
I read that very few people who worked on Apollo at its height - including private contractors nowhere near Houston - ever quit work at 5:00. The prevailing attitude was, "this may be a small component I'm working on, but no way it's going to fail on my account." I wish we could come together toward a common goal in such a way with other things.
Fascinating to watch, isn't it? The history of Human spaceflight has always been a personal interest of mine.
It is..the bugs that were discovered and to be that close to the surface and not touch it..it's amazing..couldn't imagine the feeling
yee
At 14:34 you can clearly see a white spot in the distance behind the command module going from the bottom to the top. I wonder what it might be.
Basicly, aftere seeing those pre Appolo 11 documentaries, I had absolutely no idea about all the preparations for Appolo 11.
Thanks for filling that in for me.
Snoopy is still out there! we need to find it.
It most likely deorbited and crashed into the lunar surface, long ago. I'd say 6 months after they ejected the module.
Edit: I retract this statement, after further investigation and research LM Snoopy was the only Apollo LEM that was sent out into a heliocentric orbit and is still out there today.
14:24
That has to be the most technical way to say "have you tried switching it off and back on again?"
Some things never change do they!
haha, nice one :D
Sometimes it's just the little things we do.
The next step would have been to thump the side of it.
Saw the actual capsule today at the Science Museum London very scorched underneath those astronauts were the bravest of men. Well worth a visit if you can. Coming up to 50 years anniversary :)))

@josephKlansler - and of couse, ya lack any data or facts
The guys in the lunar module, a new invention, had indescribable courage. Imagine being stranded out there if something went wrong.
Technically, Apollo 9 (the previous mission) had first tested out the LM manned in Earth orbit. Search YT for an Apollo 9 documentary.
The LM was still quite new. And inside its paper-thin walls, by themselves 238,000 from Earth, wow that was risky.
Thank you all for your replies. Yes, Apollo 9 was the first time with the LM. That thing looks so flimsy. They are a different breed to go up in such pioneering equipment.
Very true....if they had not bern able to rendezvous with the CSM, that would have been the end of them and poss 11 would not have flown
Take a look at about 14:35 time... you can see an object passing by at a lower altitude during the shot of the Command Module ... it starts at the lower left and flys straight across the moon in the background
piece of ice, and it's close

Gene Cernan was the best Apollo astronaut because he spent more time on the moon than anyone. Neil and Buzz were there for three hours. Gene and Jack Schmidt were up there for three days, doing all kinds of experiments and riding the lunar rover. And they had to fix the fender with a roll of duct tape and used maps
Armstrong made the first lunar landing. No other
what a coincidence a full moon on the 50th ANNIVERSARY of The APOLLO 11
You know whats an even crazier coincidence ............. Moon Landing hoax conspiracy theorists in the comments
Rob Moir wonderful observation!👍
They sure glossed over the fact that the tumbling that occurred when the ascent stage separated from the descent stage was due to pilot error. One crew member set an attitude switch to the correct position. The other crew member, not aware that this had been done, threw the switch again - moving it into an incorrect position.
Yeah, you're right. I wondered if many others in the comments had picked up on it. I guess NASA PR vetted these documentaries and would fudge it at the time to avoid political heat.
@@stevenfoggo3387 I was listening live when that happed. I could tell something was wrong by the language they were using and the concern they had. Cernan said, "son of a bitch" and that was the beginning. It only took a few seconds to correct it.

Great video. Those were amazing days to witness. Go USA!
I can t remember that MICHAEL GOECKER but I can remember 50 years ago today July 20th 1969 Neil Armstrong 50 years do go by fast
I didn't see the separation and the hook up tests around the moon. Why?

and there’s a group of people in another room for each of the people in mission control
No real computers. Sliderules did not fail at key moments. That's how they went to the moon. Sliderules! And pencils!
was a extraterestrial bird
23:47 where to start with this one...
Isn't this the mission where there was strange music whenever they were on the far side and LOS.
Static is what they heard. Check the Lunar surface Journal for both the film, audio, and transcripts of the noise.
Another great video about the Apollo program.
Hey Tim (EverydayAstronaut); Just a thought... maybe do some historical content. Like, especially the original US flight(s) to the moon. You're creative enough to take that footage, concept &actuarial to turn it into our modern-day vision. :) Cheers from Louisville, Ky.
I don't think the 'roll anomaly' on separation of the descent and ascent stages of the Lunar Module was as straightforward as indicated in this film, neither was it a systems failure.
During descent stage separation, the lunar module began to roll unexpectedly because the crew accidentally duplicated commands into the flight computer which took the LM out of abort mode, the correct configuration for this manoeuvre. The live network broadcasts caught Cernan and Stafford uttering several expletives before regaining control of the LM. Decades later, Cernan said he observed the horizon spinning eight times over, indicating eight rolls of the spacecraft under ascent engine power. Recordings from the flight do not support this dramatic memory. While the incident was downplayed by NASA, the roll was just several revolutions from being unrecoverable, which would have resulted in the LM crashing into the lunar surface.

1:58 The scream of those turbopumps.
Fascinating stuff ! Required watching for the "unbelievers"....
What went flying by them at about 20:08? Did they lose a hubcap?
*@Adrian Howard* Might've been a piece of isolation material from the Lem .
More technical problems than I had ever heard of before. Quality control issues?
This was their quality control.
At 20:09 what''s that?
Damn shame that such a technical triumph has wasted away. It will be 50 years this July for the Apollo 11, and almost 50 years ( 47 ) since Apollo 17, and we still haven't been back!
I really hope Buzz Aldrin is there at the celebration. If there is any celebration. Damn. Human species have achieved so much. The moonlandings startedd it all. Consider this. The internet wasn't there if there was no Apollo. I was 7 back then and on my daddy's knees. I watched it. No one can take that away from me. Greets from The Netherlands.
I really enjoy these. Thanks a lot.
What's that 14:30 passing by the moon's surface... looks like a UFO.... at
20:07 looks like an Apolo astronaut lost one of his fillings.
At 14:34 you see at the left of the Lunar Module a white orb going by..what is that?
@@brandaoz I think that could be a soviet sat, by that time the soviets allready had sats orbiting the moon. The object at min 20:07 looks more extrange.
No mention of the floating turd? Before the crew ditched the LEM they put all their trash in it, and someone took a crap in the middle of the LEM and right before they closed the hatch. One of the astronauts saw it and asked who did it, but they all denied.
3 revolutions an hour? Man that’s incredible. I always thought the barbecue roll was faster.
Tom Stafford is an unsung hero of the Apollo program. As an aside, it was amusing to hear him speak Russian with his Oklahoma twang during the Apollo-Soyuz mission in July 1975.
His book is a fantastic read, Did you know he basically wrote the specs for the B-2 Bomber.
@@richardvernon317 I didn't know that. I'll have to read his book. Thanks.

According to him, he spoke the "Oklahomski" during the mission.
"Never in any danger" when the ascent stage tumbled???? It was later calculated they were 2 seconds from crashing into the moon when they regained control. The cause was human error on a computer entry. Whoever wrote this script didn't do his homework.
They are just not going to say anything that makes it look bad.
Thats some scary ishhhhh
Wow!

" ...But for Apollo 11, it would be fixed."
Loved this bit.
16:58 Boy oh boy did it!
Snoopy is the one LM still out there somewhere, in orbit around the Sun.
didnt they leave them short on fuel so they couldn't actually land on the moon, or they could land but they would be stuck there
Sort of. This LM was overweight and so fuel was offloaded so that the mission could be flown.
They was right there! Just needed to go few feet and land. Came that far...
The SIZE of the balls on these guys!!
Apollo: The greatest peacetime acheivement of USA and their greatest mistake was not carrying out the remaining planned flights.
Those extra flights could have been an opportunity for USA to make real diplomacy with the then USSR by inviting a Russian cosmonaut on the last two flights. After all, they were planned a joint mission anyway, the Apoolo/Soyuz mission.
A real lost opportunity. Great shame.
And that is only the political loss...there was also a scientific loss for further research.
Maybe there was a fear of something going wrong, like another Apollo 13 type accident or worse, such as being stranded with no hope of rescue.
Maybe they thought they just didn't want to 'push their luck' and 'tempt the Gods'.
All comments welcome and let's discuss!!
It would have been very neat to see them fly the Apollo 18, 19, and 20 missions, as well as the theoretical missions that flight controllers presented, to go to the dark side of the moon (according to Gene Kranz's book, 'Failure Is Not An Option'). Having at least one Russian cosmonaut be the LM pilot on an Apollo mission would have been great, it would have been a massive positive move for US relations toward Russia. The fact that we gave all this up before we had barely even scratched the surface.. so unfortunate.
Manned lunar landings were a propaganda coup after coming second in virtually every other field of spaceflight. Too expensive, too risky, too useless to carry on. The Soviets had already pointed the way to the future of space exploration with rovers, space stations and planetary landers. Those kind of missions have become the standards of today. Russian space stations and US space shuttles would then turn out to be congenial projects if you remember the fabulous Mir.
@@stonerlemonblues Yes, but they don't prepare actual human beings to the harsh and unforgiving environment of space. Space missions aren't just about bringing rock samples, it's about continuous human presence in space (and eventual colonization of planets or natural satellites that can support human life).
@@IronMan-tk8uc The vision of putting men on a celestial body is an anachronism of the 1950s/60s, although an intriguing one I admit. The science which is put forward on the ISS however shows the lack of relevance of human space presence: brewing beer and watching insects in weightlessness are some of the 'highlights'. Now compare this to a Venus mapping mission or a lunar radio telescope. What could astronauts on the Moon or even Mars possibly 'explore' by now?
@@stonerlemonblues Like I said, with dozens of probes and satellites already doing it, nothing will replace actual humans travelling to other planets and making the research and exploration themselves. Many people say manned spaceflight is costly and dangerous, but given the amount of money the U.S. spends on its military every single year while NASA's budget doesn't reach 1 per cent of the entire American national budget, one can say that space exploration is not priority to politicians because there isn't oil or something similar in other celestial bodies, because if it had, nations would already bases on the Moon and Mars for decades! Mars have water in solid state and the Moon could become a source for mining Helium-3, which it could become an alternative fuel source, but nothing of these spark the eyes of governments, because the profit wouldn't be as quickly as oil extraction.
Had to give you a 'ThumsDown Dude'!
No Closed captioning and I was alive and working when we listened to the astronauts step on the moon. Hard-hearing from too much rock&roll.

How did they fix all the problems if Apollo 11 had been rolled out to the launch pad before Apollo 10 had gone into orbit around the moon?
Apollos 8 and 10 tested various components while orbiting the Moon, and returned photography of the lunar surface. Apollos 7 and 9 were Earth-orbiting missions to test the Command and Lunar Modules, and did not return lunar data because those two didn't go to the moon. Also, just because Apollo was rolled out to the launch pad doesn't mean they can't work on it there.

It is nice to see real un-fhotoshopped pictures of the Earth. Most are near Earth orbit photos with fish-eye lenses and make the Earth look round, When it is actually oval. When it becomes annoying, that fakes stand out.
You would be incorrect. Yes wide-angle lens do distort earth but the ones you see from satellites are not distorted and no wide-angle lens are used, especially those from weather satellites. The earth is an oblate spheroid but you cannot see it with the naked eye unless you do this. ua-cam.com/video/tjx0KcDH7pQ/v-deo.html
Look at some of the photos of the earth from the moon. Most look perfectly round like your photo, but some look more like 30% larger around the equator than .3%. And I'm not expecting any government to give us real information, with countries like North Korea out there putting up rockets, their wrong information could save my life.
@@martinsoos Do not mix 'government' and 'scientific consensus'. They are two seperate things. One is political and has very little to do with science, and the other is a global SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS. By the way, if you look at ANY of the photos of the earth from the moon how are you going to tell any difference in shape from 240,000 miles away with the naked eye? The Earth’s polar diameter is about 43 kilometers shorter than its equatorial diameter, a difference of about 0.3%. That video I linked to in my first comment shows you that difference. However, that photo has a resolution of 11,000 x 11,000 which equates to 121 megapixel photograph and is from the Himawari-8 Japanese weather satellite. THAT kind of resolution will never happen with any of the Apollo photographs due to the fact that they were shot on film with good resolution but not pixel counting resolution. All you would get is film grain whilst zooming in.
Any difference in shape you might detect in the apollo photographs is largely due to the terminator line starting to show or recede on either side of the earth. My avatar photograph is a perfect example of the terminator line starting to show up on the left of the photo. So any oblateness will never be seen. One last thing, if you look at the ORIGINAL Blue Marble photo shot in 1972 you will notice on the left side of the photo the outline of the earth is crisp and clear, while on the right side the outline of the earth is ever so slightly in shade. So, even THAT photo is not a 'full earth' and you cannot see the oblateness of the earth. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blue_Marble#/media/File:The_Earth_seen_from_Apollo_17.jpg

That being said, you can view all of the unprocessed Apollo 1800dpi medium format film scans that were shot using the Swedish built Hasselblad cameras. The first 4 albums are the photographs of their training. The rest are from Apollo 7-17 and are labeled MAGAZINES. Within those magazines are the actual scanned film positives shot on the moon missions. Each album is labeled with the respective Apollo mission number. www.flickr.com/photos/projectapolloarchive/albums
