The launch of Apollo 11

This is the the launch of Apollo 11 set to the music of Gustaf Holst's Mars - The Bringer of War.

Gustaf Holst's didn't write music for the Apollo 11 launch, its the "Wizard of Oz Effect".

Fans of Pink Floyd claim the band wrote Dark Side of the Moon as a backing track to the Wizard of Oz. Skeptics call it the "Wizard of Oz effect", the mind merely creates a coincidental association between pictures and music.

Indeed, the fact music of Gustaf Holst's Mars appears to be written for Apollo 11, proves the Wizard of Oz Effect is a trick of the mind.

Holst's wrote Mars during the Great War (WWI 1914-1918). It took him 3 years to write opening few minutes of Mars and it was first performed in last weeks of WWI, to a small audience.

I also recommend Karl Jenkins' - Mass for Peace.

These pilots were trained as test pilots and tested this stuff to the limit- with computers with less capability than a digital watch or old TI calcuator- there are tons of handwritten notes in the archives associated with each of these flights. Thank goodness for excellent teachers in the days of "old".

All that crap in the description about the music, and I muted it after 20 seconds lol.

@AntaresInScorpius Those engines do not creates sound! It creates a local acoustic cataclism, powerful enough to disassemble any man near to it by vibration only. It awesomly loud by 8 miles far.

i would rather hear the roar of the engine than this melodramatic music.
