This took place on 1/31/71, three days after my father passed away. He was 44, I was 14. I watched this on TV, it gave me hope for my future. And it did.

Apollo was so ahead of its time that its still ahead of its time

@lonesnake904 Год назад

seriously, what an unbelievable example of sheer human willpower. When politics get pushed aside (mostly) and something is well funded, it's truly remarkable what we are capable of.

Jack King will always be remembered as the voice of Apollo. And the crackling noise of the Saturn V as it lifts off is majestic.

I was there as a seven-year old with my family. We were sitting on the edge of the water in Titusville with a clear view of the launchpad. It was a sunny day. About an hour before the launch, clouds covered the area and it started raining. You can see that during the launch. My dad was able to get three pictures of the orange fireball taking off. We toured the Cape the next day and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. At least we were there to see history! Thank you for posting this.

@arnoldsherrill2585 Год назад

There for Apollo 13, member of a boy scout troop from Atlanta Georgia on a field trip. And watching this brings back all the memories and feelings just like yesterday. It is one of those things you don't forget, and watching this, after seeing SLS, if you experienced that firsthand , brings it all back full force. My highest recommendation, if you get a chance to sit down with anyone of that generation that experienced Apollo, no matter what their age, have a conversation about where they were, what they experienced, and how they felt then and how they feel now, looking back, and where they see us going forward Can be a education all in itself.. ... From one generation to the next

@silverback8183 Год назад

Lucky you! Tell me...being the most powerful rocket ever what was it like? I bet I shook the ground didn't it!

@arnoldsherrill2585 Год назад

@@silverback8183 even if you're not close you can actually feel the air around you vibrating, and yes you actually do feel it in your chest. It doesn't last very long but when it happens you never forget that Going to the Kennedy space center for a launch, is a lifetime memory. It was a" bucket list" item, before the term was even invented, and still is to this day The closest way I can actually explain it watch the video of SLS, done by "cosmic perspective" on their RU-vid channel, not only watch it, also listen to it, it's not just the liftoff itself it's also crowd reaction to it We didn't have that type of technology back then, and where we were, we weren't as close as the press site but I can guarantee you the reaction was just the same, you don't have words for it, at that moment, and your emotions are all over the place, at least they were for me. But here's the most important thing you'll never forget it. Like I said watch" cosmic perspective"liftoff video, or the liftoff video done by" the everyday astronaut" channel, where you can see Tim Dood's reaction, along with that of some of his friends, who are there to help produce the event for his channel and the things I'm saying will make perfect sense.

@triggerfish999 Год назад

For at least two launches my mate and I (aged 10) used to sprint home from school (in England) to see the 16:00 (Uk time) launch on TV. We thought it was fabulous. He had the airfix Saturn V model as well. So now I’m a complete Apollo nut.

@ovepayne Год назад

It´s incredible that the launch pad is left in one piece, so it seems anyway, when the brutal and massive force of those five F1´s is unleashed! It should really be left a scrap heap and it´s not, absolutely mind blowing. I remember the Apollo program very well although I was barely a teenager when it begun and the coverage of it in Sweden was pretty good.

@daffidavit Год назад

I was lucky enough to fly a Piper Cherokee PA-28-140 with three passengers while a student at FIT in Melbourne, Fl, six days before Apollo 14 departed. I had to verify in my logbook the exact date and aircraft we were in. We flew up the Indian River and circled the small restricted area surrounding the Cape. Back in those days, security was not like today and the restricted areas were small. I remember the spot lights shining at dusk on this rocket as it stood there waiting for the three astronauts to depart almost a week later. Apollo 14 was already on the gantry at least a week or more and I still recall it almost as if yesterday. I was 19 years old when this happened. Time has flown by.

@anibalbabilonia1867 Год назад

Man I remember that day like it was yesterday! I was 8 years old and my Dad was sitting in the front porch of the house listening to the radio, and the countdown! It was so exciting! I thought it was like the future was closer than ever! People going to the moon and maybe other planets! The space race was in full swing. It definitely was an exciting time period! I also remember my older brother having the astronauts and spaceships toys!

You can't imagine for how long I was waiting to see that amazing pad camera angles of Apollo14! This is by far the best multi angle Launch of Apollo14 ever made! The tower hi res camera and pad camera E-8 are a debut to see for all of us! Also the cloud scenery making it more dramatic. Might you be able to do also Pad cameras from Apollo13, 15 and 16 ? These are also still not existing here on youtube. Congratulations to that masterpiece! A big thank you!

I know SLS has more thrust, but it’s just not the same. This thing launches under its own power, no external boosters… and it’s friggin’ kerosene. The amount of 6 pickup trucks being shot out of 5 engines… every second!

@Mike-01234 Год назад

There was a design by Rocketdyne to resurrect the Famous Saturn V engine for the SLS called the F-1B engine it would have far less parts than the F-1 engine plus increasing the boost to 1.8M lbs. of thrust at launch. This would give the SLS 9 million lbs of thrust from 5 engines. Too bad the scrapped the idea for a shuttle like design. Maybe one day the F-1B will be a reality I would go to see it launch I live on the west coast it would be worth it.
