In the Apollo era, NASA was receiving roughly one sixth of the federal budget, and in my opinion it was well worth it. It was a HUGE cold war victory, It inspired a whole generation of young people to pursue science & technology (we can't even begin to measure how valuable that was), It lifted the spirits of Americans in the midst of Vietnam, watergate, the RFK and MLK assassinations, and it reminded the world what the US is capable of when we feel threatened.

What is behind your bizarre obsession with the UK? Brit steal your girlfriend? Dumped by an English girl? Raped by the Duke of Edinburgh?
I literally have a room full of people laughing at you, right now. Sitting alone at a PC, surrounded by guns, small circumcised cock, powerless to change anything...you are diseased. What were you? USAF gate-lifter maybe? Perhaps even less than that. Beaten up by squaddies? Doesn't matter - you are the acme of human sadness. Kill yourself.
to all the doubters that say USA didn't have the technology to travel to the moon in 1969. Please tell me which technology they were missing. every one says computer power, but you don't NEED a computer to fly in space. Sure it makes things easier but look at the shuttle, it fly's with computeers from the 1970's. your car will have more computer power.as for the van allens belts, even doc van allen said they arn't powerful enough to kill when using apollo's flight plan.
@launchsquid Well it is possible to land on the moon, it's just after sifting through all the video and pics of the moon landing, the shadows not matching the sun, crosshairs of a camera behind the astronaut, and now a moonrock delivered to a museum by Neil Armstrong was found out to be DRIFTWOOD. I wish i could believe they went there. Google the "The Faked Apollo Missions" and look for yourself.
@MultiJiles Wrong, the shadows were altered by the topography of the moon, even Mythbusters could replicate that. The +'s were overlapped not because there were added later, but because the bright equipment and surroundings would often bleed into the cross. And NASA doesn't really like it when people give away moon rocks, they're suing someone right now for trying to sell lunar dust. So first, this story is likely not true, and second, it is also likely not true, as nothing shows up on Google.
@MultiJiles Ah, I found it. Now, were ALL of the gifts petrified wood? If they were, then there's something there, but if NOT, it's likely just a case of "We're out of moon rocks... what do we do now?"

The moon i'm chocking on my lunch. youtube astronauts gone wild its pretty funny.If it was a space race why hasn't anyone else been there but us.Why can't they show us the reminisces of us being on the moon. And they must went around the VanAllen belt. 69 the technology wasn't even close to being good enough to get to the moon and neither is it today. Thats why we haven't been back and ain't going back. Oh by the way how's fairy land wish I could be there with you.
@pauze3232 Dude, tech is there, it's all pretty simple (if ridiculously high stakes) physics, so the low power computers back then were fine with it. The USSR went to space, so did the USA, USA landed guys on the moon, all the USSR managed was a rover because they ran out of cash. The tech today is enough to allow us to land some humans on mars, then bring them back. Provided we fork over the money needed to buy materials.
@pauze3232 As for reminisces, are you blind? There are hours and hours of footage from space and the moon. There are lots of interviews with the various astronauts to boot. Reason it's a spacerace and the USA won= basically, the soviets ran a bit low on cash and spent the rest of it suppressing their citizens and building warheads/other military things. Please, do some research before the next time you claim someone spent billions of dollars -and got hundreds in on the trick- to deceive you.
@russianbear0027 K please go youtube Astronauts gone wild. Technology wasn't good enough an still isn't thats why we haven't been back. Go to nasa.com and look at their pictures if you want but when there in the dark side of the moon and take a picture how is the astronaut lit up. Did you realize the moon is 220,000 miles away and a 3 day trip and the van allen belts are 25,000 miles deep. you go do some research and come an let me know cause its a joke.
@pauze3232 I looked that up and watched it. It appears to be cut from a longer film, the editing techniques he used made it appear that the reactions in question were instant. However, it's fairly easy to see that he was likely pestering them for a good while, beyond not pausing to let them get a word in edgewise even in the clips shown. Very rude of him. If he'd been polite, explained that he wanted to end the debates (such as ours), then they would have likely acquiesced.
@pauze3232 There are no pictures of astronauts on the far side of the moon because no one has landed there as of yet. All the photos you see were taken on the nearside. Yes, the moon is far away. However, the near vacuum of space means there is little to no friction to battle against when accelerating and maintaining velocity, making distance less of a factor. The van allen belts do pose a risk, yes, however, electronics can be hardened against the radiation, which is relatively low on average.
@russianbear0027 quick question i've been looking at the actual footage on the launch's Apollo and don't understand why after the lift off they don't have just one camera view on any of the shuttles all the way through. They show the launch at some point they cut to a different view then next there in space. kind of odd they never show them actually entering space from the earth's atmosphere
@director84: First off, those rockets were built by Germans. But it was us (the Americans) that had the knowledge of what to do with those rockets. Our men were the ones risking their lives to go into space. Without the bravery and intellect of the "Americans"...these events wouldn't have happened. It takes more than a rocket ship to get into space or get to the moon. Get over yourself!
@xsxrxvx The rockets were NOT built by Germans. Several former Germans (US citizens) were incorporated in the constructions, but it was US companies that built the rockets in USA.
The Soviets also had former Germans helping them to construct their rockets. But Russians built them.
The Swedes used German aircraft technology researche to design their delta winged "Draken" fighters. Nothing wrong with learning from others.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@edoardomanzireloaded The question is whi is the greater dumbass: The person who believes anything it is told by authorities, even if it is not plausible and in contradiction to provable facts, or the perople who doubt in reaction to apparent inconsistencies.
Ever heard of the Van Allen Radiation Belt? It would have killed the Apollo astronauts. Too bad it wasn't discovered yet in the 1960's, so they couldn't take that into account when they made all this up...
@Director84 Wrong: the Van Allen Belt was discovered in 1958 by James Van Allen, and it wasn't a threat: the astronauts, thanks to the alluminium hull of the spaceship and to a calculated trajectory, during the 90 minutes transit through the belt, received an amount of radiation of 4,3 millisievert, equal to the one received by an intercontinental flight.
The van Allen belts were discovered in 1958. The outer belts where the Saturn V traversed were comprised of electrons with energies that dropped off at 10 MeV. There are electrons of higher energies in these belts, but they do not contribute much to the overall particle flux. The electrons in the outer belts were readily attenuated by the CM and CSM.
@lukequixotesanjose Yes, they explained briefly in the book "Angle of attack" (Grey) that the plethora of dense equipment occupying every nook and cranny of the cm shielded all aboard quite effectively
Exactly. The CM was rated at 7-8 g cm-2. But that does not inlclude all the oxygen tanks in the CSM, the equipment in the CM etc. All those 'bits and bob' increased the overall shielding. I love the way that jarrah White claims that the van Allen belts gives so many rem per hour and simply multiplies that value by the time in the belts.
Was I making a comment at you? I was replying to the hoax believer who comment has received too many votes and is hidden. Don't tell me to stfu when I was appreciating the launch and offering a different view to the conspiracy theorist. Just about every Apollo video on YT has the conspiracy theorists trolling on them. It gets irritating to read. So cut the abuse Mr keyboard warrior. What are you, the guardian of YouTube and moderator of comments?
@lukequixotesanjose very true...in the book "Angle of Attack" there is mention of North American Aviations concern regarding radiation exposure and the associated weight penalties involved however it goes on to explain that due to the command module being crammed full of life support, navigation, guidance equipment etc. its hull was easily impervious to the radiation it would encounter during Van Allen transition
@Director84 As others have pointed out, the greater dumbass (your term) is the one who completely ignores or (more likely) intentionally obscures or misstates scientific facts in favor of pulling stuff out of somewhere the sun doesn't shine as you have done so nicely. As with all things pulled from that place, your pseudo-facts stink!
@GumatzPotrzebie yeah, I looked at his page and found a fat german kid with a self inflicted split tounge looking back...he's obviously attention deprived and trying to get some here by going the Apollo naysayer route.
Considering he's somewhat young and already fighting an obesity issue its only a matter of a few years before he's wheelchair bound screaming in german for his nurse to change his shitty diapers.
@MightySaturn5 Actually I am a highly intelligent (IQ 135) German med student. And you must be a fat, retarded American idiot who believes there is no civilization outside of your country, and the rest of the world still lives on trees...
@Director84 Just because I accidently wrote my IQ score in jizz across your mothers forehead is no reason to get upset -she was warned about the adverse side effects of peeling the dried remains multiple times...perhaps you can tell everyone the reason your mother has a scar that says 143 is a reminder to all of her typical monthly quota of males that have graced her bed of newspaper within her spacious cardboard house.
...if your country has a "fathers day" it must be depressing for you.
@MightySaturn5 Obviously you're confusing my mother with your sister. Too bad you were unable to produce enough jizz to add the dot to make it read correctly: 14.3
Yes..I was there !!! MAGNIFICENT POWER !!! THUNDEROUS SOUND AND MASSIVE SHOCK-WAVES !! To all the Nay-sayers out there who said it was fake ????HAHAHAHA...YOU WEREN'T THERE TO EXPERIENCE A ONCE IN A LIFETIME EVENT !! YOU ALL ARE JEALOUS !!! Apollo,probably the likes of which we probably won't see again untill we head to Mars and beyond,rests as one of the 7 wonders in the world !!
@firehauck Yet, when this year is over, you won't even have the space shuttle anymore, and at least in the next decade there will be no American space ship at all. :-P
@Director84 ...oh Director, just because an American (me) wrapped my shlong around your mothers tonsils and yanked her eyes out through her mouth while simutaneously blasting a pint of frothy DNA towards her face is no reason to hate us creative Americans, even you have to admit how silly you looked as you worriedly ran to her side while bubbling semen poured from her empty eye sockets and lathered your head like a shampoo commercial gone wrong.
@MightySaturn5 As I already said, you're confusing my mother with your sister. But seeing how dumb you are I'm not surprised I have to repeat this a few times before you understand it. And that little boy standing by wasn't me, it was your little half-brother whose father you became when you fucked your mother, once when your sister wasn't yet old enough to be fucked by you. Hence before she got rid of the diapers. Given your genes it's quite understandable you've become a pervert pedo...
@Director84 ...yeah, trying to deflect the onslaught using confusion as an umbrella won't cut it. Clearly you're not able to deal with American superiority on a one to one basis and it shows through your resentment of the U.S.
...don't you understand that adults laugh at the content of your page?
@MightySaturn5 What American superiority? You mean that one, that you let German engineers like Wernher von Braun build rockets for you? Or the superiority of your cars in fuel consumption, as there are no cars in the world which can swallow so much gas on a few miles?
@Director84 Wernher Von Braun had been an American citizen for almost twenty five years by the time we landed on the moon. Besides that there were thousands of scientists working for NASA, designing the parts and function. The Rockets had about five and a half million moving parts {more than any mechanical device in human history. It took four Hundred Thousand American Citizens from 12000 different companies to build one rocket. But all your little mind can think is 'the Germans built it.' Cute
@Swazi54 I really doubt that such a rocket was of a higher mechanical complexity than for example a mining machine used for coal mining. And regarding the electronics: an average present day car contains more computing power than all computers involved during an Apollo mission (on the ground and aboard) added together. I didn't say the Germans built the rockets, read properly! But you Americans always shoot before you listen. Cute.
@Director84 "German engineers like Wernher Von Braun built rockets for you," is exactly what you said. Now, a mining machine and a modern day automobile are not as advanced as a rocket that sends you to another heavenly body. There is a big difference between a mining machine and space craft, they are two completely different things. There is nothing, including the shuttles of US or Russia that even compare to the Saturn five rockets, in scale or complexity.
@Director84 This comment also shows how foolish this really is. You have no idea what you're talking about. Read something about this first, get off you damned computer, get some excercise. Go to a public place with a book on the subject. Maybe on your public transportation ride to work. Read something on this. Something indepth before you speak out of your ass. Please, more intelligent coments in the future. STOP SPEAKING OUT OF YOUR ASS.
@jedikenneth I don't think it was an option available to them. Unbelievably, the blueprints for the design were destroyed! Can you believe that? You'd think they'd be in some archive or museum. Pity. Beautiful machine.
we need to get back into space but if we wanna go far we need to build a space station or somewhere to assemble much better space capable shuttles that are able for much longer distances than the ones we cane manage now
In the seventies NASA envisioned two space stations; a large one in Earth orbit and another station in Lunar orbit. It was all part of a plan to establish a permanent human presence on the moon or a moon base. Unfortunately the funding for these programs was not available. The space shuttle was never intended nor designed to put men on the moon. However a space shuttle could deliver astronauts to a space station where they could embark on a moon ship.
Little did they know what awaited them a few hours later. Thankfully they made it back alive after one slingshot orbit around the Moon. Very very lucky "13".
Wow that 3rd view really shows how much the Sat V leaned over during the LUT Avoidance Maneuver. Right after liftout the computers would command the engines to gimbal just a bit to make damn sure the rocket is moving AWAY from the tower, not towards it..
@bestamerica the saturn V was the most daring and technically enhanced rocket put togeter with minds across the US it took off the first was a failture but withiut their sacrafice our rocket wouldent be safe and before buzz went into the ship he took out the apollo 1 badges and two ussr medals from people who have died in the ussr and a plaque and placed them ion the lunar surface apollo 13 was a miracle
@Daniel55556 Hey Dan, it almost sounds like you were saying the first Saturn V failed however I believe you might mean the Apollo 1 fire that had nothing to do with a Saturn V
They never went to the moon. The evidence of a hoax is crushing. Do YouTube searches on "Moonfaker" and "Apollo 15 flag waving". Do a Google Video search on "What happened on the Moon".
@Cosmored There's miss interruption of valid data. I've looked at the finger quote "Evidence" and have seen mainly a campaign of miss leading information for self promotion. Bert Sibrel for example. Caught purposely fabricating information. Really it comes down to one thing. Russia hasn't denied we wen't there. The ones having the most to gain from a fake moon landing. Fact is the USSR had a probe at the moon the same day as Apollo 11. Trying to upstage the US.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I posted some info about the Russians on a science forum.
Google "The Naked Scientists". In the "New Theories" section of the forum there's a thread entitled "Did We Land on the Moon?". The summary is on page 15. It's the 7th one from the top.
@Cosmored Saw it a long time ago. Once more conflicting data and a sham to promote himself. Just look at his intros.
Look at teh youtube channel /user/LandingApollo
That will set the record straight. Also /user/svector. and using just two channels I'd debunked any and all "evidence" you had. Making your case fall apart.
Apollo 13 was rolled to the pad in December 1969 and would indeed have been the only vehicle your dad's photo could be of.
13 was rolled out before the holidays at the end of December and during the time before launch extensive tests of the connections and systems were made, including all-up countdown tests that stopped right before ignition. This was common (and still is) but they would never have found the defective O2 tank on the pad.
I was there for the launch at the VIP section. 3.5 miles away ! Best seat in the house ! Made the Shuttle look like a bottle rocket. It pounded your chest and shook the ground like an eathquake.!! Nothing like it !!it was a sad day when " Nixon " cancelled Apollo !!
Apollo had acheived its objectives. The disasterous decision was to scrap the Saturn V and go down the shuttle route. We could have had a manned mission to Mars by the late 80s.
Btw ... I watched Apollo 17 lift off. Awsome is a word often misused these days. It was frightening and wonderful.
Very cool stuff. When the movie came out, my Dad reminded me that we were actually at the Apollo 13 launch with a news media junket. I would have been about 3 1/2 at the time, and I vaguely remember being at an Apollo launch. I just didn't remember that it was THAT launch. Thanks for sharing this...
Ok, now I to prove that both you and me are wrong. Apologies, this contains maths. First stage burn lasted 150 seconds and took the rocket to a speed of 26833m/s. This gives an average acceleration of 179m/s^2. Rocket height is 110m, so the velocity after 110m is 198.4m/s - the speed of sound is 340.29m/s at sea level. Considerably more than 40mph, considerably less than the speed of sound.
Nope no more that 40mph. The rocket is just over 110 meters. It took about 10 seconds from when it first took off to when it cleared the tower. That means on average it was going no faster than just 10 meters per second. It was prob going a bit faster than that when the bottom was at the top of the tower but 40mph is about right.
I am going to argue with you. You are assuming that the camera's are running at normal speed. They're not - you can see that from the speed the exhaust plume when the engines fire, the video has been slowed down. I've done mine by taking the data from NASA's website - not from easily manipulated video. Of course, what they've put in the website could be wrong. As mine was only an average acceleration, I would expect it to be going a bit slower than I said, but not by much.
Dont know what it is I,m 50 i watched all these rockets take off as a kid still brings tears to my eyes that was a great era !!!!

13:13 was Houston time (central). Cape Kennedy (Canaveral) is in Florida- eastern time. Thus 2:13pm Eastern (local) was the launch time.

@director84: First off, those rockets were built by Germans. But it was us (the Americans) that had the knowledge of what to do with those rockets. Our men were the ones risking their lives to go into space. Without the bravery and intellect of the "Americans"...these events wouldn't have happened. It takes more than a rocket ship to get into space or get to the moon. Get over yourself!

@xsxrxvx The rockets were NOT built by Germans. Several former Germans (US citizens) were incorporated in the constructions, but it was US companies that built the rockets in USA.
The Soviets also had former Germans helping them to construct their rockets. But Russians built them.
The Swedes used German aircraft technology researche to design their delta winged "Draken" fighters. Nothing wrong with learning from others.

Ever heard of the Van Allen Radiation Belt? It would have killed the Apollo astronauts. Too bad it wasn't discovered yet in the 1960's, so they couldn't take that into account when they made all this up...
Director84 1 year ago
@Director84 Wrong: the Van Allen Belt was discovered in 1958 by James Van Allen, and it wasn't a threat: the astronauts, thanks to the alluminium hull of the spaceship and to a calculated trajectory, during the 90 minutes transit through the belt, received an amount of radiation of 4,3 millisievert, equal to the one received by an intercontinental flight.
edoardomanzireloaded 1 year ago
@Director84
The van Allen belts were discovered in 1958. The outer belts where the Saturn V traversed were comprised of electrons with energies that dropped off at 10 MeV. There are electrons of higher energies in these belts, but they do not contribute much to the overall particle flux. The electrons in the outer belts were readily attenuated by the CM and CSM.
lukequixotesanjose 1 year ago 13
@lukequixotesanjose Yes, they explained briefly in the book "Angle of attack" (Grey) that the plethora of dense equipment occupying every nook and cranny of the cm shielded all aboard quite effectively
MightySaturn5 11 months ago
@MightySaturn5
Exactly. The CM was rated at 7-8 g cm-2. But that does not inlclude all the oxygen tanks in the CSM, the equipment in the CM etc. All those 'bits and bob' increased the overall shielding. I love the way that jarrah White claims that the van Allen belts gives so many rem per hour and simply multiplies that value by the time in the belts.

@lukequixotesanjose very true...in the book "Angle of Attack" there is mention of North American Aviations concern regarding radiation exposure and the associated weight penalties involved however it goes on to explain that due to the command module being crammed full of life support, navigation, guidance equipment etc. its hull was easily impervious to the radiation it would encounter during Van Allen transition

MightySaturn5 11 months ago
@Director84 Wernher Von Braun had been an American citizen for almost twenty five years by the time we landed on the moon. Besides that there were thousands of scientists working for NASA, designing the parts and function. The Rockets had about five and a half million moving parts {more than any mechanical device in human history. It took four Hundred Thousand American Citizens from 12000 different companies to build one rocket. But all your little mind can think is 'the Germans built it.' Cute
Swazi54 11 months ago
@Swazi54 I really doubt that such a rocket was of a higher mechanical complexity than for example a mining machine used for coal mining. And regarding the electronics: an average present day car contains more computing power than all computers involved during an Apollo mission (on the ground and aboard) added together. I didn't say the Germans built the rockets, read properly! But you Americans always shoot before you listen. Cute.
Director84 11 months ago
@Director84 "German engineers like Wernher Von Braun built rockets for you," is exactly what you said. Now, a mining machine and a modern day automobile are not as advanced as a rocket that sends you to another heavenly body. There is a big difference between a mining machine and space craft, they are two completely different things. There is nothing, including the shuttles of US or Russia that even compare to the Saturn five rockets, in scale or complexity.

boringcabbage 1 year ago
In the seventies NASA envisioned two space stations; a large one in Earth orbit and another station in Lunar orbit. It was all part of a plan to establish a permanent human presence on the moon or a moon base. Unfortunately the funding for these programs was not available. The space shuttle was never intended nor designed to put men on the moon. However a space shuttle could deliver astronauts to a space station where they could embark on a moon ship.

amgor2000 2 years ago
Apollo 13 was rolled to the pad in December 1969 and would indeed have been the only vehicle your dad's photo could be of.
13 was rolled out before the holidays at the end of December and during the time before launch extensive tests of the connections and systems were made, including all-up countdown tests that stopped right before ignition. This was common (and still is) but they would never have found the defective O2 tank on the pad.

LOL no its not. Id say no more that 40mph
mrdojob 2 years ago
Ok, now I to prove that both you and me are wrong. Apologies, this contains maths. First stage burn lasted 150 seconds and took the rocket to a speed of 26833m/s. This gives an average acceleration of 179m/s^2. Rocket height is 110m, so the velocity after 110m is 198.4m/s - the speed of sound is 340.29m/s at sea level. Considerably more than 40mph, considerably less than the speed of sound.
Engineering ftw!
Pygmalleon 2 years ago
Nope no more that 40mph. The rocket is just over 110 meters. It took about 10 seconds from when it first took off to when it cleared the tower. That means on average it was going no faster than just 10 meters per second. It was prob going a bit faster than that when the bottom was at the top of the tower but 40mph is about right.
mrdojob 2 years ago
Average speed from when rocket first starts taking off to when it clears the tower about 24mph. Far slower than even my estimate.
Even more simple maths ;)
mrdojob 2 years ago
Just so you can't argue
110 divided by 10 = 11 meters per second.
Multilpy 11 by 60 to give you how many meters it goes in 1 min thenagain by 60 to give meters per hour.
Divide number of meters the rocket goes in an hour by the number of meters in a mile (1,609) to equal just 24 mph ;) :P
mrdojob 2 years ago
I am going to argue with you. You are assuming that the camera's are running at normal speed. They're not - you can see that from the speed the exhaust plume when the engines fire, the video has been slowed down. I've done mine by taking the data from NASA's website - not from easily manipulated video. Of course, what they've put in the website could be wrong. As mine was only an average acceleration, I would expect it to be going a bit slower than I said, but not by much.
