Between 1969 and 1972 twelve men walked on the surface of the moon. It was seen as the first chapter in an ambitious program of space exploration. Year 2020
All the men from Mercury, Gemini and Apollo are some of my greatest heroes. They're the greatest pilots to ever live to alot of people... They certainly are in my book. The Crew of Apollo One will always hold a special place in my heart as well. I'm so grateful for their efforts aswell as all the Astronauts during that time.
Yah there are allot of special people running around in here, I bet allot of them are bots. The rest are just the crazies with no brain and no life who wish they could be the next famous person but will work their jobs sweeping and mopping the floors.

@@lifesahobby The Apollo 11 crews were exposed to 1.67 mSv per second as they crossed the Van Allen radiation belt. This amounts to a total exposure of 1.8 Sv in 3 hours of travel through the radiation belt during the mission. Any exposure to 1 Sv or more, however, brings about fatal injuries. The radiation readings for the Apollo 11 astronauts’ skin of 0.18 rad, significantly, did not differ from radiation readings from missions restricted to low earth orbit. Data clearly proves that the Apollo 11 astronauts were not sufficiently protected against radiation: Neither the spaceship nor the spacesuits contained lead. Aluminum is ineffective against gamma and neutron rays. The calculated exposure of the Apollo crew was 1.8 Sv, an amount associated with nausea, vomiting, bone marrow changes, and 20% mortality. Surprisingly, no Apollo astronaut showed any ill effects from radiation exposure. These inconsistencies seem to reflect either possible over-estimation or under-reporting of the health hazards summarized in Safe Passage. Furthermore, these medical inconsistencies seem to highlight the surprising observations that the Apollo 11 astronauts did not show any signs of space sickness from microgravity upon their return to Earth.
JFK said the end of the decade. In this entire video the guy talks about 12-31-1969 being the deadline. However the deadline (decade) is actually 12-31-1970.
please explain how it works. The calendar was created by Catholic Romans who used Roman Numbers. The thought of “0” zero was not considered. The first year was “1”. There was never a 01-01-0000, instead it was 01-01-0001. Therefore a decade starts at every 20_1 and last for 10 years.
@@roccorossetti7579 You WERE home-schooled. JFK's statement about reaching the moon "by the end of the decade" referred to the 1960s, meaning before the start of 1970. This aligns with the common understanding of a decade as a span of 10 years starting from a year ending in 0 and ending in a year ending in 9 (e.g., 1960-1969). The general modern usage defines decades this way. A pseudointellectual often engages in discussions in a way that seems knowledgeable but lacks true understanding or depth.
Project Apollo is still the most amazing memory if my teenage years & probably America's greatest achievement. They changed history in a way that will be remembered 500, even 1000 years in the future - people will still remember that Neil & Buzz walking on the moon in 1969.
It appears that, for an astronaut, having drama with Mission Control is especially bad for your career, as illustrated by Mercury-Atlas 7 and Apollo 7.
Wally thought he could dictate the rules to Nasa, they all got what they deserved for disobeying orders; besides, he made a career out of he's "stubborn" cold.
~~ From the day JFK made the challenge in 1962 to put men on the moon before the end of the decade - NASA basically had a blank check to make it happen - but they also had the engineering talent ( and the drive & the discipline ) to make it happen - only when they had to make Apollo 17 the final manned mission in 1972 were the economic realities taking hold - the space shuttle was supposed to be the cost-saving alternative - but it never was that. Now it's just all about putting more satellites in orbit - making collisions an ever-increasing danger - and of course space tourism - for rich folks ..
58:20 I've always said that this is one of the most important photographs in human history, taken at a time of incredible instability on our fragile Earth..
Most people referred to the progroam as "Gem en eee" even though most people say "Gem en eye". It's been said that the German engineers would say "Gem en ee" and the name stayed that way during thoughs days. Also, at 1:16:03 I believe that's Neil Armstrong's Omega Speedmaster that he's wearing on his left wrist. He never wore it on the moon, so Buzz Aldrin was the first person to wear his Speedmaster watch on the moon. It's been said that Neil left his watch hanging on the instrument panel because the built-in clock on the panel stopped working.
@@wildboar7473 Maybe they don't realize that originally, the LM was referred to as the LEM for the Lunar Excursion Module. It was later shortened to the term LM, or Lunar Module.
@@daffidavit no rather a anal antihoaxer of 20 years plus.... :) deldelahaye3811 (parts....) wildboar7473 More ignorance....the term LEM was dropped in 1967...The Apollo landers are always referred to as LMs ...pronounced LEM...but those who continue to use the acronym LEM just show they have little, or no in- depth, knowledge of the NASA Apollo missions. 😬 wildboar7473 Please pay attention....! The MIT quote is dated 1966. I very clearly pointed out that the name " LEM " was dropped NASA in 1967, although some sources say that the notice to change the name went out in June 1966...It is quite likely that the MIT program was made before that date...or they just used the old name LEM *because that was what the general public knew* ,, 🤒 The fact that some sources refer to " LM or LEM " is simply because many people do not know that the name was changed *early in the program* ..and the fact that LM is pronounced LEM does not help the willfully ignorant... 😝 The fact that other people use the term LEM is irrelevant and does not change the fact that the name was changed to LM over 50 years ago. And just because somebody referred to working on the original design of the LEMm as it was then called, *does not excuse the use of the wrong term now.* 🥵 It is not " VERY BAD " to call it the LEM now, it is just factually WRONG...and *when we are debunking conspiracy garbage we rely on getting the correct facts.. It is called attention to detail* - something conspiracy spouters continuously ignore.. 😵💫
The narrator says at 3:38 "Coast-to-coast, citizens were watching" the failed Vanguard launch of December 6, 1957. In fact, the launch was not televised live. An article on page 76 of the December 16, 1957 issue of the magazine "Broadcasting" says, "WTVT (TV) Tampa-St. Petersburg, Fla. aired 400 feet of film of the explosion of the Vanguard missile one hour and 50 minutes after the earth satellite burst into flames Dec. 6 at Cape Canaveral, Fla., 110 miles from the station. Roger Sharp, a WTVT newscaster, and a 2-man camera crew...covered the explosion from four miles away and rushed the film to WTVT by chartered plane. WTVT supplied prints for stations in New York, Oklahoma City, New Orleans, Montgomery, Louisville and Miami in time for newscasts that same day."
If you are reading some of the comments here , you will find so many people who lack conviction in their argument about humans not going to the moon . Thats why people argue , they want someone to do the homework for them.. until then they suffer the doubts . This us what happens when you are given choices to study physics , organic chemistry and you say " its too hard " you end up never developing a mind with conceptual capacity .. and you might always pick the easy way from that point on . Its just laziness to doubt and its crazy to argue with them . If you had some guy running across ten lanes of highway, it would be really silly to run across the road with them telling them theyre doing something stupid . So dont argue with them .. youll never change those who never took the ambitious subjects . Youll find behind them all is a lack of physics , science, objectivity , conceptual thought . And that's why they rattle like they do . Here to india .. with the first woman , here to christina cock , heres to the apollo program , vostok, gemini , and all the brave ones who risked it all to inspire us . Gods speed .. 77 tons all the way m may the force be with you and may peace be with those who just dont know .
@lifesahobby Can't get past the Van Allen Belts, bud. Do you honestly believe anyone and everyone who knows that the landings were fake are simply too lazy, uneducated
@@lifesahobby Can't get past the Van Allen Belts, bud. That's just the tip of the iceberg. Do you honestly believe anyone and everyone who knows that the landings were fake are simply too lazy, uneducated or lack the understanding of physics, science, etc....? Is that why there are scientists, engineers etc.... all over the world who are very educated that agree NASA faked the landings. What do you say to that? Wake up!
56:17 56:42 56:53 58:05 1:00:49 1:17:18 I like that when filming flights from inside a spaceship, there is always a blue sky outside the window. There was always good weather in space lol
I know you're obviously trolling, but just in case you are new to general Space Science, or have read little on the matter ( I'm 52, so was educated at a time when you needed to read on subjects extensively, unlike today), let me try to explain. The Blue Sky, as you call it, is apparent because the camera, or window, is looking DOWN at the earth below. The atmosphere of the earth, especially in Low Earth Orbit, always looks blue. If the camera was looking out into the blackness of space, you would see nothing. The astronauts would see stars, but the Camera, and by extension we the viewer, cannot resolve stars, so the sky looks black. Go outside tonight and snap off one pic of the sky and look at the image. You will see no stars. Maybe Venus, or the moon if its bright enough, but no stars. You need a long exposure of more than a second to see any stars. Some phones, on night mode, will do it automatically, but generally no.
Vanguard TV-3 bounced clear of the explosion and started transmitting, despite being damaged. It resides in the Smithsonian at the Udvar-Hazy annex.i Vanguard 1 is still up there, inert, but still trucking along at 60+ years.
1:08:20 There it is again. I think that's a MYTH. I cannot IMAGINE that crew trying to make an unauthorized landing. Your whole life is building to this moment, and you are going to BLOW it by performing some stunt, for which neither they nor the guys on the ground had made any plans. I think that's utter BS. I'm sure they short-fueled the LM because the extra fuel was simply unnecessary. On space missions, you're always looking for ways to save whatever weight you can, and I'm sure that was just one more of those cases.
NASA is still dreaming that their Lie would come true AFTER China landed her astronauts on the Moon . Dream on NASA. Prices are going up and American GDP is crashing !
"The result of an unprecedented surge in scientific and engineering activity with remarkable spin-offs… in less than 9 years the United States went from space amateur to technological hyperpower". That's proof of how humans could do amazing things, in a relatively short period of time, if they really put their mind to it. And that's why wise Jacque Fresco stated that we must put our mind to changing the socioeconomic organization system under which our society operates as we did to put a man on the moon. Watch "The choice is ours" documentary to learn about his proposal.
Lost count how many times ive watch this Nasa to the moon . A bit help from aussie space honeysuckle creek You got look it up this was a new area of tech that change the world .
Aussies should also know about the 64-meter radio telescope at Parkes, New South Wales, which was responsible for receiving the signals from most of the 2 ½ - hour Moonwalk.
That is incorrect. Earth’s curvature is visible, even to the naked eye, from an altitude of 10 km. We have thousands of photos from the ISS that clearly show curvature.

We already have live cameras watching Earth from a much better vantage point: geostationary orbit. Weather satellites take photos of the entire hemisphere every 10 minutes.
@@user-rb6pt3up8c No, that’s not the reason. DSCOVR operates at 1.5 million km from Earth and takes regular photos. But the photos taken from geostationary orbit are of much higher quality: the closer you get the higher the resolution. We’ve launched more than 200 spacecraft that have left Earth orbit entirely. More than 30 successful missions to the moon including 8 manned ones, of which 6 landed.
I like how they are ticking with the same story. The booster used was actually a Jupiter intermediate range ballistic missile booster. But Ike wanted to keep the military out of it so the called it Juno. Juno was Jupiter's wife.
Its more between 1969 - 1973 6 sequels of moon walks. Strange after /despite Safety First careful advancement They still made to MOON a year latter, and 2 on it! Miracle short feat.
After the first manned dive to the deepest point of the ocean, it took another 50 years for another human to get there. Does that mean that first dive was a fake? Apollo was the most expensive engineering project in history. Repeating it will require a similarly gigantic investment. NASA’s current budget is only 1/10 of what it was during Apollo.
Kubrick’s best efforts can be seen in 2001: A Space Odyssey. The scenes in space and on the moon are immediately recognizable as fake: they’re recorded in 1 G here on Earth. The Apollo videos show perfect 1/6 g gravity instead.
Ask Chris Nolan if he wants to make the same TV series 6 times with the same set and bad equipment and only different actors, what do you think his answer will be?
@@michael.forkert As evidence for the moon landings, we have: - 382 kg of lunar rock samples available to any geologist, - hours of live TV and film, - more than 8000 photos, - scientific results from every experiment they did, - thousands of technical documents that show how they did it. We can analyze this evidence, and have been doing that for 50 years now, In all that time, not one of these items has been found to be fake. For example, the Apollo videos show they're in 1/6 g gravity, which we cannot replicate on Earth today, which proves those videos were not recorded on Earth, but on the moon. In addition, we have confirmation from multiple independent sources: - amateur astronomers could see the CSM/LM on their way to the Moon. - in several countries including the USSR, people monitored Apollo spacecraft radio transmissions. Radio astronomers used their telescopes to monitor transmissions, confirming they were transmitting from the moon. - in the 50 years since the landings, thousands of geologists all over the world have examined lunar rock samples and found they don't look like the rocks we find on Earth. - The NASA Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and India's Chandrayaan 2 orbiter has photographed the Apollo landing sites, with enough resolution to show the foot tracks of the astronauts. - Japan's Selene lunar orbiter has mapped the Apollo landing sites and found the topography matches that seen in Apollo photos. - laser reflectors were left on the moon by the Apollo missions, and can be pinged from Earth by anyone with a powerful laser.
@@Hobbes746 This is from Nature Magazine. Title: Limitations in predicting the space radiation health risk for exploration astronauts. And your dilemma now will be whether to believe the scientists of the 1960s or the scientists of 2018.
@@johnmarcos1929 The Nature article is about long-duration missions, like the missions to Mars we’re currently considering. Not the two-week missions to the Moon that were done for Apollo. Modern radiation measurements show a human can spend more than a month on the moon without any radiation protection before getting to the current annual dose limit set by OSHA.
@@Hobbes746 I believe you didn't read the article. And if you read it, you didn't understand anything. No one leaves low orbit, it is no coincidence that planet Earth is known as the cradle. In addition to the dangers of solar and cosmic radiation, there are other risks that intelligent people close their eyes to avoid seeing.

*A FUNNY THING HAPPENED* WHEN NASA SENT NINE APOLLO MISSIONS OUT TO THE MOON eight successfully completed their missions, six of which landed two of their crew on the Lunar surface. Those were Apollos 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17 Now how about that !
When current cold war 2.0 has pressure on two blocs, many people repeatedly to what's happened in the past decades. Everyone have to join the two blocs conflicts but there still doesn't have peaceful development. I have seen many reminders and documents about the U.S. and USSR space projects during 1960s-1980s. However, both Western bloc and post-socialism bloc has mentioned those fallen space projects participants, from this murdered Soviet hero due to inner seriously political chaos to "Columbia" accident - they were dead by uncertain laid out rocket system, but honestly due to hidden nuclear weapons carried on the crew space. Darkness two blocs cold war had accidently killed their elites by different ways. So who is still fear of those hidden darkness? Who is prefer to repeat those darkness even though the nuclear war risks? Shameful kill and hidden, blame and extinction.

@@robotsonrockets I love reading comments from scientific narcissists who boast of masters degree and Phd's and who cannot tie their own shoe laces and while asking them a copule of physics questions shut up forever The questions are: what causes the speed of light? What is the definition of time?
At about 15;40 mins, it claims John Glenn returns after a perfect mission, BUT even the 'Reight Stuff' movie, it shows some detail of how he had to return early, with serious doubts about his heat shield and Chute deployment. If Werner Von Braun had been allowed more support, and earlier, [instead of hassling him with stupid questions, "are you a Nazi"], then the USA MIGHT have been doing better. WHY transport him, his colleagues and train loads of his gear over to USA, only to keep him in Limbo, continuously doubting his loyalty?
I agree with you on point one, The landing bag deployed light was a real situation and I picked up on that as well in the video and thought --- eeehhh! One point two, the American government would not give von Braun the Presidential Medal of Freedom because, in their words "he got as good as he gave". In my view, he had no integrity. He worked for the highest bidder to achieve his own goals. There is a society after all. This was a group effort. His star rises and falls regularly but I fall into the latter category after reading much about him, Of course, I was not there but I also think America, had it not had von Braun, would have figured it out anyway.

@@brianstephen5392 I used my brain to evaluate the evidence for and against the moon landing. I found that the evidence for the moon landings is solid, with no indication of fakery anywhere.

The moon landing deniers don’t present evidence, they only present arguments that turn out to be full of holes.

They were the first to establish the limits of human breathing with regards to pressure and oxygen percentage. "Space-cabin Atmospheres: Oxygen toxicity” is a review of previous research by Roth from 1964 that lists all of these.
Never went. With todays telescopes one would be able to get a clear picture of the flags and boot prints on the surface. Surely NASA can provide. But never will.
The largest of today’s telescopes have a resolution of around 100 meters per pixel at the distance of the moon. The LM is only 4 x 4 meters. 3 countries have launched satellites that orbit the moon and photograph its surface from low altitude. Those have a resolution of 50 cm per pixel, and they have photographed all of the Apollo landing sites. We can recognize the LM, we can see the smaller equipment around it, and we can see the foot and rover tracks left by the crews. All exactly as seen in the Apollo data.
You're a bit quick to come to the "never went"conclusion considering that you're not even aware of the lunar orbiters, from four countries, that have photographed the Apollo landing sites in enough detail to see that things are where they're expected to be. I think it's great to question all sorts of things, but jumping to a conclusion is the end of questioning. A real skeptic is cautious and knows the limits of his own knowledge.
