has anybody seen and/or know the name of the video of this footage, there is some crazy stuff on it, i would like to see it again if anyone knows of it? apollo 6 unseen footage?
The city visible at 1:31 is Dallas-Ft. Worth. The lakes near the top are Grapevine Lake and Lake Dallas. Interstate 35W can be seen running vertically from Ft. Worth to Denton.
Apollo VI was a lemon. The "all up" testing method - where the entire vehicle is tested rather than its parts- was the only way the oscillations would have been found. Apollo VII rode atop the much smaller Saturn 1B.
I think the Apollo 7 crew had some serious balls. Imagine - the Apollo 1 crew dies of a fire on the pad, the Apollo 6 spacecraft suffers from pogo oscillations and yet the 7 crew still goes ahead with it. And performs a nominal mission. And then Apollo 8 of course, goes to the fucking moon! That's faith in your convictions.
YES - Apollo 6 was the last Block I Spacecraft. The Command Module was Serial Number 020 - The Service Module was 014 (the reason for the mis-match is a long story).
Thank you for posting this video. Anyone interested in the Apollo 6 missions should visit the Fernbank Science Center in suburban Atlanta. The center has Command Module 020 on permanent display. It is a fascinating exhibit and well worth seeing.
I saw in in 2004 and it was in a bad way. I think when they examined it post-flight, they were slow to realize its historical significance. The Side Hatch, Sextant, Telescope, and all 12 RCS Thrusters were missing.
Most of the Apollo hardware I've seen in museums has been cannibalized. Even LM-2, on display in the Smithsonian in DC, is missing many of its modules in the pictures of its interior that I've seen. The CM from Apollo 9, here in San Diego, was missing its DSKYs and a few other things I didn't immediately recognize.

The moon missions were faked in a studio. Here's a link to some of the evidence.

Interesting drawing at 1:01. Shows the unbuilt Launch pad 39C. Clearly there are 3 in the drawing.
Originally there were 5 planned, then three, then only two built.
