2
00:01:19,476 --> 00:01:21,578
20 seconds to drop.

3
00:01:22,980 --> 00:01:25,348
Arm switch light, check.

4
00:01:26,417 --> 00:01:28,416
Brakes out, check.

5
00:01:31,789 --> 00:01:32,954
What's your mixing chambers?

6
00:01:32,956 --> 00:01:34,488
Real rough up here,

7
00:01:34,490 --> 00:01:36,625
fluctuating a half degree
on each side.

8
00:01:36,627 --> 00:01:39,027
I see that.

9
00:01:40,563 --> 00:01:42,164
Ten seconds.

10
00:01:53,010 --> 00:01:54,877
Good on track, 15...

11
00:03:26,838 --> 00:03:29,241
...a visual estimate
of your location?

12
00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:32,676
Okay. 140,000 feet.

13
00:03:32,678 --> 00:03:34,612
On your way down.

14
00:03:42,888 --> 00:03:44,954
Approaching 115,000 feet.

15
00:03:44,956 --> 00:03:47,658
Should be regaining
aerodynamic controls.

16
00:03:49,095 --> 00:03:50,960
Right turn.

17
00:03:57,870 --> 00:03:59,739
We show you ballooning,
not turning.

18
00:04:08,348 --> 00:04:09,813
Altitude rising.

19
00:04:09,815 --> 00:04:11,784
A lot more right.

20
00:04:14,121 --> 00:04:16,086
Neil, you're bouncing
off the atmosphere.

21
00:04:21,460 --> 00:04:24,996
The
altitude's still rising, Neil.

22
00:05:25,193 --> 00:05:26,791
You're gonna have to

23
00:05:26,793 --> 00:05:27,828
stretch out your glide.

24
00:05:32,066 --> 00:05:33,667
You seem to be a tad short.

25
00:05:41,741 --> 00:05:43,678
Stow your flaps down, Neil.

26
00:06:08,403 --> 00:06:10,171
I'm down.

27
00:06:12,940 --> 00:06:14,409
Roger.

28
00:06:39,901 --> 00:06:41,368
All right, let's get him out.

29
00:06:44,173 --> 00:06:45,171
I'll step up in there.

30
00:06:45,173 --> 00:06:46,174
You okay?

31
00:06:49,478 --> 00:06:51,844
Yeah.

32
00:06:51,846 --> 00:06:53,215
Okay, Neil.

33
00:06:56,519 --> 00:06:58,984
Kid's a good engineer.

34
00:06:58,986 --> 00:07:01,354
But he's distracted.

35
00:07:01,356 --> 00:07:04,023
He got home, Chuck.
He bounced off the atmosphere

36
00:07:04,025 --> 00:07:05,525
and still figured out
how to get home.

37
00:07:05,527 --> 00:07:07,528
Third mishap this month.

38
00:07:07,530 --> 00:07:10,299
Bikle should ground him
before he hurts himself.

39
00:07:52,975 --> 00:07:54,375
There you go.

40
00:07:55,912 --> 00:07:57,545
It's okay.

41
00:07:57,547 --> 00:07:59,946
It's okay, sweetheart.

42
00:07:59,948 --> 00:08:01,784
It's okay. Come here, come here.

43
00:08:02,884 --> 00:08:04,017
Okay.

44
00:08:15,931 --> 00:08:17,867
What's that?

45
00:08:21,237 --> 00:08:23,039
Look. Who's that?

46
00:08:29,979 --> 00:08:31,781
Is that a kite?

47
00:08:33,316 --> 00:08:35,316
Does that fly in the sky?

48
00:08:35,318 --> 00:08:37,184
Yeah.

49
00:08:37,186 --> 00:08:39,188
How?

50
00:08:41,891 --> 00:08:43,460
♪ I see the Moon

51
00:08:45,395 --> 00:08:48,463
♪ The Moon sees me

52
00:08:48,465 --> 00:08:50,965
♪ Down through the leaves

53
00:08:50,967 --> 00:08:54,305
♪ Of the old oak tree

54
00:08:55,939 --> 00:08:58,272
♪ Please let the light

55
00:08:58,274 --> 00:09:01,912
♪ That shines on me

56
00:09:03,614 --> 00:09:08,252
♪ Shine on the one I love.

57
00:09:09,620 --> 00:09:11,118
<i>Maybe I should talk</i>

58
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,621
<i>to Dr. Johns about it.</i>

59
00:09:12,623 --> 00:09:14,323
Who?

60
00:09:14,325 --> 00:09:16,957
Dr. Harold Johns.

61
00:09:16,959 --> 00:09:19,361
He developed a procedure
in Saskatchewan.

62
00:09:19,363 --> 00:09:21,530
So you'd go to Canada?

63
00:09:21,532 --> 00:09:24,166
I guess I would
take some time off.

64
00:09:24,168 --> 00:09:26,168
Why don't you
talk to the hospital?

65
00:09:26,170 --> 00:09:29,204
- See if the tumor might be...
- I spoke to them already.

66
00:09:29,206 --> 00:09:30,640
I'm sorry, Neil.

67
00:09:30,642 --> 00:09:32,674
I wish I had more to offer.

68
00:09:32,676 --> 00:09:34,142
That's okay, Jack.

69
00:09:34,144 --> 00:09:35,577
Uh, appreciate it.

70
00:09:35,579 --> 00:09:37,913
- Of course.
- Give my love to June.

71
00:09:37,915 --> 00:09:39,314
- You got it.
- Okay.

72
00:09:39,316 --> 00:09:40,515
- Bye, now.
- Bye.

73
00:09:59,303 --> 00:10:02,004
Now, who made that?
You or Grace?

74
00:10:02,006 --> 00:10:03,105
Grace did.

75
00:10:03,107 --> 00:10:04,674
I'll take it, then.

76
00:10:04,676 --> 00:10:07,008
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

77
00:10:07,010 --> 00:10:08,710
Dick Day called from Houston.

78
00:10:08,712 --> 00:10:10,446
He was asking after you.

79
00:10:10,448 --> 00:10:12,348
That about Gemini?

80
00:10:12,350 --> 00:10:14,117
They're looking for pilots

81
00:10:14,119 --> 00:10:16,218
with a solid background
in engineering.

82
00:10:17,689 --> 00:10:21,390
Well, maybe once Karen
starts feeling better.

83
00:10:21,392 --> 00:10:24,529
Just, you know, I wouldn't want
to move her until then.

84
00:10:26,698 --> 00:10:29,332
Well, it would be nice
to keep you around.

85
00:10:29,334 --> 00:10:31,735
- Enjoy the casserole.
- Thank you.

86
00:10:31,737 --> 00:10:33,371
You're welcome.

87
00:10:34,472 --> 00:10:35,738
Joe.

88
00:10:35,740 --> 00:10:37,073
Hey, Jan.

89
00:10:37,075 --> 00:10:38,708
You, uh, hanging in?

90
00:10:38,710 --> 00:10:41,179
Oh, you know.

91
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,647
It's nice of you to come by.

92
00:10:44,649 --> 00:10:46,418
Of course.

93
00:10:49,287 --> 00:10:50,954
Night, now.

94
00:11:56,655 --> 00:11:58,789
- Thank you so much.
- Absolutely.

95
00:12:11,170 --> 00:12:12,772
Dad, want to come play?

96
00:12:16,743 --> 00:12:18,778
I should, um...

97
00:12:20,113 --> 00:12:22,181
I have to help your mother.

98
00:13:50,437 --> 00:13:53,106
I thought I might go to work.

99
00:13:57,912 --> 00:14:00,381
Okay.

100
00:14:17,531 --> 00:14:18,665
They're gonna use
VTOL technology.

101
00:14:18,667 --> 00:14:19,866
They won't even
have figured out

102
00:14:19,868 --> 00:14:22,336
how to get there yet. I'm not
gonna waste my time on...

103
00:14:24,205 --> 00:14:25,507
Morning.

104
00:14:27,608 --> 00:14:29,676
Neil.

105
00:14:29,678 --> 00:14:33,212
You can take a few days off,
you know.

106
00:14:33,214 --> 00:14:34,948
I know.

107
00:14:34,950 --> 00:14:39,921
I'm just getting up to speed on
the new delta wing in the UK.

108
00:14:41,690 --> 00:14:43,592
Bikle canceled the trip.

109
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,960
He wants you focused
on writing up

110
00:14:46,962 --> 00:14:49,398
the pilot report
from your last flight.

111
00:14:56,437 --> 00:14:57,806
Am I grounded, Joe?

112
00:15:00,776 --> 00:15:03,210
Write up the report
on the bounce, okay?

113
00:15:19,829 --> 00:15:21,530
Thank you, sir.

114
00:16:02,004 --> 00:16:04,672
Civilian?

115
00:16:04,674 --> 00:16:07,608
- Yeah.
- Yeah. Me, too.

116
00:16:07,610 --> 00:16:09,476
Elliot.

117
00:16:09,478 --> 00:16:10,446
Neil.

118
00:16:12,548 --> 00:16:14,314
Tough morning, huh?

119
00:16:14,316 --> 00:16:17,518
I barely lasted two minutes
in that ice bath.

120
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,755
Course, I suppose
NASA's more interested

121
00:16:19,757 --> 00:16:21,457
in the psychological reaction.

122
00:16:22,558 --> 00:16:24,558
Well...

123
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,364
I think I made it pretty clear
that I thought it was cold.

124
00:16:31,702 --> 00:16:32,702
Armstrong.

125
00:16:34,837 --> 00:16:37,340
- Good luck.
- You, too.

126
00:16:41,577 --> 00:16:43,377
Another egghead.

127
00:16:43,379 --> 00:16:44,745
<i>Neil, we've been chatting</i>

128
00:16:44,747 --> 00:16:46,413
<i>with candidates
about the program.</i>

129
00:16:46,415 --> 00:16:50,050
As you know, our decision
to forgo direct ascent

130
00:16:50,052 --> 00:16:51,752
in favor of a lunar orbit
rendezvous approach

131
00:16:51,754 --> 00:16:53,021
to the eventual Moon mission

132
00:16:53,023 --> 00:16:55,357
has had a major impact
on Gemini.

133
00:16:55,359 --> 00:16:57,859
Do you have any thoughts
on that decision?

134
00:16:57,861 --> 00:17:01,029
Well, even considering
von Braun's initial criticism,

135
00:17:01,031 --> 00:17:03,098
it seems that the payload saved

136
00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:05,700
by parking the primary vehicle
in orbit

137
00:17:05,702 --> 00:17:08,769
and sending a smaller ship down
to the lunar surface

138
00:17:08,771 --> 00:17:11,006
is well worth
the resulting challenges.

139
00:17:11,008 --> 00:17:12,474
What do you see
as the challenges?

140
00:17:12,476 --> 00:17:14,408
Cislunar navigation, for one.

141
00:17:14,410 --> 00:17:16,077
And rendezvous and docking.

142
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:17,881
Why do you think
space flight's important?

143
00:17:20,416 --> 00:17:23,518
I had a few, uh,
opportunities in the X-15

144
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,721
to observe the atmosphere.

145
00:17:26,723 --> 00:17:30,927
It was so thin,
such a small part of the Earth,

146
00:17:30,929 --> 00:17:32,828
you could barely see it at all.

147
00:17:32,830 --> 00:17:34,529
And when you're down here
in the crowd

148
00:17:34,531 --> 00:17:36,698
and you look up, it...
it looks pretty big,

149
00:17:36,700 --> 00:17:38,533
and you don't think
about it too much.

150
00:17:38,535 --> 00:17:41,703
But when you get
a different vantage point,

151
00:17:41,705 --> 00:17:44,741
it changes your perspective.

152
00:17:46,510 --> 00:17:50,846
I don't know what
space exploration will uncover,

153
00:17:50,848 --> 00:17:53,082
but I don't think
it'll be exploration

154
00:17:53,084 --> 00:17:55,984
just for the sake
of exploration.

155
00:17:55,986 --> 00:18:01,657
I think it'll be more the fact
that it allows us to see things

156
00:18:01,659 --> 00:18:05,527
that maybe we should have seen
a long time ago

157
00:18:05,529 --> 00:18:09,600
but just haven't been able to
until now.

158
00:18:13,071 --> 00:18:15,604
- Does anyone have anything else?
- Yeah.

159
00:18:15,606 --> 00:18:17,809
Neil, I was sorry to hear
about your daughter.

160
00:18:20,644 --> 00:18:23,646
I'm sorry, is there a question?

161
00:18:23,648 --> 00:18:27,717
Um, what I...
what I mean is, uh,

162
00:18:27,719 --> 00:18:29,621
do you think
it will have an effect?

163
00:18:33,558 --> 00:18:36,927
I think it would be
unreasonable to assume

164
00:18:36,929 --> 00:18:39,597
that it wouldn't have
some effect.

165
00:18:40,965 --> 00:18:42,598
All right, Neil.

166
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,500
Thank you. That's fine.

167
00:18:44,502 --> 00:18:46,135
Thank you.

168
00:18:46,137 --> 00:18:48,573
Thank you for your time.

169
00:18:55,781 --> 00:18:57,448
Hello?

170
00:18:58,683 --> 00:18:59,785
Yeah, sure. Neil.

171
00:19:00,886 --> 00:19:01,884
Hello?

172
00:19:01,886 --> 00:19:02,985
Can I go play outside?

173
00:19:02,987 --> 00:19:04,890
Yeah.

174
00:19:06,125 --> 00:19:07,825
Yes, sir.

175
00:19:10,495 --> 00:19:11,931
Thank you, sir.

176
00:19:16,168 --> 00:19:18,103
I got it.

177
00:19:24,610 --> 00:19:26,544
It's a fresh start.

178
00:19:27,813 --> 00:19:29,648
Are you sure?

179
00:19:31,117 --> 00:19:32,684
Yeah.

180
00:19:37,822 --> 00:19:39,457
Hey.

181
00:19:40,559 --> 00:19:42,528
It'll be an adventure.

182
00:19:59,678 --> 00:20:02,079
<i>Since the time of Jules Verne,</i>

183
00:20:02,081 --> 00:20:04,983
<i>man has imagined
traveling to the Moon.</i>

184
00:20:04,985 --> 00:20:07,685
<i>The old idea of how to get
to the Moon</i>

185
00:20:07,687 --> 00:20:10,922
<i>was to send one spacecraft
all the way there and back.</i>

186
00:20:10,924 --> 00:20:14,591
<i>However, NASA engineers have
developed a modern approach</i>

187
00:20:14,593 --> 00:20:17,095
<i>where one rocket
contains several ships</i>

188
00:20:17,097 --> 00:20:19,697
<i>that will make the journey
together.</i>

189
00:20:19,699 --> 00:20:21,631
<i>Just as Columbus took a rowboat</i>

190
00:20:21,633 --> 00:20:24,669
<i>from the</i> Santa María
<i>to the shore of the New World,</i>

191
00:20:24,671 --> 00:20:27,071
<i>the astronauts will take
a smaller spacecraft</i>

192
00:20:27,073 --> 00:20:30,074
<i>from the mother ship
down to the lunar surface.</i>

193
00:20:30,076 --> 00:20:32,076
<i>When it's time to return,</i>

194
00:20:32,078 --> 00:20:34,779
<i>the smaller craft will lift off
from the surface</i>

195
00:20:34,781 --> 00:20:36,647
<i>and dock with the mother ship,</i>

196
00:20:36,649 --> 00:20:39,083
<i>which will then power the crew
back to Earth.</i>

197
00:20:39,085 --> 00:20:41,886
<i>Thus, thanks to
the brilliant minds of NASA,</i>

198
00:20:41,888 --> 00:20:44,621
<i>the age-old dream of going
to the Moon</i>

199
00:20:44,623 --> 00:20:46,960
<i>will soon be achieved.</i>

200
00:20:55,202 --> 00:20:57,635
<i>Sputnik, Sputnik 2,</i>

201
00:20:57,637 --> 00:21:00,339
Vostok, Gagarin.

202
00:21:00,341 --> 00:21:02,073
The Soviets have beaten us

203
00:21:02,075 --> 00:21:04,642
at every single major
space accomplishment.

204
00:21:04,644 --> 00:21:06,378
Our program couldn't compete.

205
00:21:06,380 --> 00:21:09,614
So we've chosen to focus
on a job so difficult,

206
00:21:09,616 --> 00:21:12,317
requiring so many
technological developments,

207
00:21:12,319 --> 00:21:15,753
that the Russians are gonna
have to start from scratch.

208
00:21:15,755 --> 00:21:17,258
As will we.

209
00:21:21,094 --> 00:21:22,327
Hi.

210
00:21:22,329 --> 00:21:23,628
- Hi.
- I'm Pat.

211
00:21:23,630 --> 00:21:24,963
Got here about a week
before you,

212
00:21:24,965 --> 00:21:26,331
so welcome to the neighborhood.

213
00:21:26,333 --> 00:21:28,834
Oh, that's so nice of you.

214
00:21:28,836 --> 00:21:30,135
- Well, it's...
- I'm Janet.

215
00:21:30,137 --> 00:21:32,237
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

216
00:21:32,239 --> 00:21:34,975
So, instead of here, we go...

217
00:21:41,382 --> 00:21:42,983
Hey.

218
00:21:56,130 --> 00:21:57,329
Here.

219
00:21:57,331 --> 00:21:59,965
That's to scale. Check it.

220
00:21:59,967 --> 00:22:02,067
That's my husband, Ed,
and that's Eddie Junior.

221
00:22:02,069 --> 00:22:04,069
I don't know where Bonnie is.

222
00:22:04,071 --> 00:22:06,072
- You've got two?
- I do.

223
00:22:06,074 --> 00:22:08,340
I see...
Is this your first one?

224
00:22:08,342 --> 00:22:09,808
Oh, no, no.

225
00:22:09,810 --> 00:22:11,377
We've got a boy, Rick.

226
00:22:11,379 --> 00:22:12,979
How old is he?

227
00:22:12,981 --> 00:22:14,713
He's five and a half.

228
00:22:14,715 --> 00:22:15,981
Oh, well, we should get them
together.

229
00:22:15,983 --> 00:22:17,883
If we want to get this done,

230
00:22:17,885 --> 00:22:19,452
we need to prove that two ships

231
00:22:19,454 --> 00:22:22,855
can find each other in orbit
and dock without crashing.

232
00:22:22,857 --> 00:22:25,091
That's the primary mission
of Project Gemini.

233
00:22:25,093 --> 00:22:26,925
When we think you're ready,

234
00:22:26,927 --> 00:22:30,096
each of you will be assigned
a flight with a specific task.

235
00:22:30,098 --> 00:22:31,797
Only after we master
all these tasks

236
00:22:31,799 --> 00:22:33,466
do we move on to Apollo,

237
00:22:33,468 --> 00:22:35,802
consider trying to land
on the Moon.

238
00:22:35,804 --> 00:22:37,303
- It's nice to meet you.
- And you, Pat.

239
00:22:37,305 --> 00:22:39,738
- Bye.
- Bye.

240
00:22:39,740 --> 00:22:41,774
- Eddie, you put that down.
- <i>Gus.</i>

241
00:22:41,776 --> 00:22:43,243
Eddie Junior, don't you dare...

242
00:22:43,245 --> 00:22:44,312
You got anything to add?

243
00:22:45,447 --> 00:22:47,313
Just do your job.

244
00:22:47,315 --> 00:22:48,850
Yes, sir.

245
00:22:50,185 --> 00:22:52,018
Almost to scale.

246
00:22:52,020 --> 00:22:53,920
The Multi-Axis Trainer

247
00:22:53,922 --> 00:22:57,790
was designed to replicate
roll coupling on three axes,

248
00:22:57,792 --> 00:23:01,195
the kind you might
encounter in space.

249
00:23:01,197 --> 00:23:03,863
The challenge
is to stabilize the machine

250
00:23:03,865 --> 00:23:06,065
before you pass out.

251
00:23:06,067 --> 00:23:08,904
First victim, Armstrong.

252
00:24:55,345 --> 00:24:57,145
White, you're up.

253
00:24:57,147 --> 00:24:59,014
Yeah, I got it.

254
00:24:59,016 --> 00:25:00,183
I'm okay.

255
00:25:03,253 --> 00:25:04,821
Let's go again.

256
00:25:30,281 --> 00:25:31,613
Oh, fuck.

257
00:25:47,598 --> 00:25:50,298
Gentlemen, welcome
to Basic Rocket Physics.

258
00:25:50,300 --> 00:25:53,669
We'll just be covering
the first chapter tonight.

259
00:25:53,671 --> 00:25:56,472
When using a multi-stage
launch vehicle,

260
00:25:56,474 --> 00:25:58,240
it's necessary to determine

261
00:25:58,242 --> 00:26:00,976
what the right sizing is
of those stages.

262
00:26:39,350 --> 00:26:41,986
- Hi.
- Hi.

263
00:26:44,956 --> 00:26:46,188
You okay?

264
00:26:46,190 --> 00:26:47,691
Yeah.

265
00:26:47,693 --> 00:26:50,359
Just thinking
about this lecture.

266
00:26:50,361 --> 00:26:52,498
It's kind of neat.

267
00:26:54,733 --> 00:26:56,934
What's neat about it?

268
00:26:59,104 --> 00:27:03,373
Well, it was about how
to rendezvous with the Agena.

269
00:27:03,375 --> 00:27:05,976
If you thrust,
it-it actually slows you down,

270
00:27:05,978 --> 00:27:07,577
because it puts you
into a higher orbit,

271
00:27:07,579 --> 00:27:09,279
so you have to reduce thrust

272
00:27:09,281 --> 00:27:11,515
and drop into a lower orbit
in order to catch up.

273
00:27:11,517 --> 00:27:14,484
It's-it's backwards from what
they teach you as a pilot,

274
00:27:14,486 --> 00:27:19,258
but if you work the math,
it-it-it follows.

275
00:27:20,626 --> 00:27:22,161
It's kind of neat.

276
00:27:24,029 --> 00:27:26,128
Yeah.

277
00:27:26,130 --> 00:27:27,431
What's funny?

278
00:27:27,433 --> 00:27:29,935
No, it's not funny.
It's just...

279
00:27:31,437 --> 00:27:33,672
It's kind of neat.

280
00:27:57,362 --> 00:27:59,198
Do you remember this?

281
00:28:00,433 --> 00:28:02,365
Yeah.

282
00:28:02,367 --> 00:28:04,704
I'm surprised
that you remember it.

283
00:28:55,488 --> 00:28:58,189
♪ If you miss
the train I'm on... ♪

284
00:28:58,191 --> 00:29:00,826
Let's see. I want to make ten.

285
00:29:00,828 --> 00:29:03,294
Before you panic...

286
00:29:03,296 --> 00:29:04,696
There we go.

287
00:29:04,698 --> 00:29:06,365
Great. Thank you.

288
00:29:06,367 --> 00:29:07,498
Thank you for having us.

289
00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:09,233
It's a pleasure.

290
00:29:09,235 --> 00:29:10,602
Carrie.

291
00:29:10,604 --> 00:29:12,371
Here you go.
Would you like some salad?

292
00:29:12,373 --> 00:29:14,338
- Thank you.
- That's a lovely piano, Pat.

293
00:29:14,340 --> 00:29:16,842
- Do you play?
- Bonnie's taking lessons.

294
00:29:16,844 --> 00:29:18,845
- Mm.
- Well, perhaps we'll sing

295
00:29:18,847 --> 00:29:20,380
for our supper.

296
00:29:21,815 --> 00:29:23,181
Neil plays piano?

297
00:29:23,183 --> 00:29:24,583
Neil knows all kinds
of show tunes.

298
00:29:24,585 --> 00:29:27,151
- Janet.
- Oh, come on.

299
00:29:27,153 --> 00:29:28,420
He was musical director
at his fraternity in college.

300
00:29:28,422 --> 00:29:29,721
- Honey.
- Yeah, he wrote the musical

301
00:29:29,723 --> 00:29:31,590
for the all-student revue.

302
00:29:31,592 --> 00:29:33,157
- I didn't write the music.
- Yeah, you did.

303
00:29:33,159 --> 00:29:36,361
No, I... We used music
from Gilbert and Sullivan.

304
00:29:36,363 --> 00:29:38,162
Well, he wrote all new lyrics.

305
00:29:38,164 --> 00:29:40,867
"The Land of Egelloc."

306
00:29:40,869 --> 00:29:42,702
It was quite funny.

307
00:29:42,704 --> 00:29:46,171
"The Land of Egelloc"?

308
00:29:46,173 --> 00:29:47,439
- Egelloc.
- Mm-hmm.

309
00:29:47,441 --> 00:29:48,775
You've never heard of it?

310
00:29:48,777 --> 00:29:50,542
I-I haven't.

311
00:29:50,544 --> 00:29:53,178
Oh, I'm surprised.
Uh, uh, it's a distant land,

312
00:29:53,180 --> 00:29:54,847
but, uh, it's a magical place.

313
00:29:54,849 --> 00:29:56,450
It's "college"
spelled backwards.

314
00:30:00,287 --> 00:30:01,488
Seriously?

315
00:30:02,623 --> 00:30:03,890
Yep.

316
00:30:08,362 --> 00:30:10,763
You're, uh,
backup on Five, huh?

317
00:30:10,765 --> 00:30:12,332
- Yeah.
- Well, don't worry.

318
00:30:12,334 --> 00:30:13,699
You'll get
your own mission soon.

319
00:30:13,701 --> 00:30:15,334
How's training going on Four?

320
00:30:15,336 --> 00:30:16,368
It's good.

321
00:30:16,370 --> 00:30:17,737
I think we're close on E.V.A.

322
00:30:17,739 --> 00:30:19,939
First man to walk in space.

323
00:30:19,941 --> 00:30:22,174
- That'd be something, huh?
- Yeah.

324
00:30:22,176 --> 00:30:24,344
Well, you know the walking's
the easy part.

325
00:30:24,346 --> 00:30:26,679
- It's getting back inside that's tough.
- Mm.

326
00:30:26,681 --> 00:30:28,281
It'd be a hell of a ride

327
00:30:28,283 --> 00:30:29,716
to come back
with my tail hanging out.

328
00:30:29,718 --> 00:30:30,717
Oh, I think McDivitt

329
00:30:30,719 --> 00:30:32,752
will cut the cord
before that ever happens.

330
00:30:32,754 --> 00:30:34,721
Whoa, whoa, whoa. You
throttle back there, Armstrong.

331
00:30:34,723 --> 00:30:35,822
Ed!

332
00:30:35,824 --> 00:30:37,222
- Yeah?
- Phone for you.

333
00:30:37,224 --> 00:30:38,791
- Yeah, who is it?
- It's Deke.

334
00:30:38,793 --> 00:30:40,326
Okay, hang on.

335
00:30:40,328 --> 00:30:41,594
I think that's
Castor and Pollux.

336
00:30:42,865 --> 00:30:45,365
I was testing you,
and you passed.

337
00:30:45,367 --> 00:30:47,433
I thought about
letting it fly, but...

338
00:30:47,435 --> 00:30:48,636
Yeah.

339
00:30:48,638 --> 00:30:50,137
Yeah.

340
00:30:53,441 --> 00:30:55,942
Uh, no, uh,
let me turn it on right now.

341
00:30:55,944 --> 00:30:57,077
Hey, guys.

342
00:30:57,079 --> 00:30:59,847
...with a Soviet pressure suit,

343
00:30:59,849 --> 00:31:01,714
we're told, that was designed
for the lunar surface.

344
00:31:01,716 --> 00:31:03,816
- I'll call you back.
- This is, of course,

345
00:31:03,818 --> 00:31:04,852
mankind's first E.V.A.,

346
00:31:04,854 --> 00:31:07,387
or extravehicular activity.

347
00:31:07,389 --> 00:31:09,622
Within the American
space program,

348
00:31:09,624 --> 00:31:12,559
E.V.A. is seen as one
of the crucial tests

349
00:31:12,561 --> 00:31:15,561
the astronauts must master
if they are to successfully

350
00:31:15,563 --> 00:31:17,765
carry out their mission
to the Moon.

351
00:31:17,767 --> 00:31:19,967
Astronaut Ed White
was scheduled

352
00:31:19,969 --> 00:31:22,435
to perform the first E.V.A.

353
00:31:22,437 --> 00:31:23,904
during Gemini 4.

354
00:31:23,906 --> 00:31:26,239
So this is yet another
major victory

355
00:31:26,241 --> 00:31:28,776
for the Soviet Union
in the Space Race.

356
00:31:35,284 --> 00:31:36,617
Check valves are clear.

357
00:31:36,619 --> 00:31:37,918
Okay. I'll get on the edge.

358
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,321
- We got it from here.
- Thanks.

359
00:31:41,323 --> 00:31:43,324
Thanks, Elliot.

360
00:31:51,300 --> 00:31:52,800
<i>Eight days up there.</i>

361
00:31:52,802 --> 00:31:54,903
To be honest, I'm kind of glad
we didn't get this one.

362
00:31:54,905 --> 00:31:57,373
Hope they don't
kill each other.

363
00:31:59,042 --> 00:32:00,742
At least it'd be quieter
around here.

364
00:32:10,653 --> 00:32:12,620
Neil.

365
00:32:12,622 --> 00:32:13,987
Go ahead.

366
00:32:13,989 --> 00:32:17,291
Neil Armstrong,
our backup commander.

367
00:32:17,293 --> 00:32:18,426
Buzz Aldrin.

368
00:32:18,428 --> 00:32:19,760
Roger Chaffee.

369
00:32:19,762 --> 00:32:20,962
Couple of greenhorns
from third group.

370
00:32:20,964 --> 00:32:22,496
They'll be at blockhouse
for launch.

371
00:32:22,498 --> 00:32:24,766
Listen, can I speak to you
for a minute?

372
00:32:24,768 --> 00:32:26,535
Fellas.

373
00:32:31,373 --> 00:32:34,042
We're putting you
in command of Gemini 8.

374
00:32:34,044 --> 00:32:36,945
Dave Scott is gonna be
your pilot.

375
00:32:36,947 --> 00:32:40,381
We get the Agena back online,

376
00:32:40,383 --> 00:32:42,686
you're probably gonna be
the first to dock.

377
00:32:49,425 --> 00:32:50,658
Don't worry about Elliot.

378
00:32:50,660 --> 00:32:52,527
We'll put that brain
of his to work.

379
00:32:52,529 --> 00:32:54,629
We've got a big E.V.A.
planned for Eight.

380
00:32:54,631 --> 00:32:56,398
Dave's a workhorse.

381
00:32:57,501 --> 00:32:58,867
Yes, sir.

382
00:32:58,869 --> 00:33:00,971
- I'll talk to you later today.
- Thank you.

383
00:33:14,417 --> 00:33:15,416
My eye!

384
00:33:15,418 --> 00:33:17,385
Oh, my eye!

385
00:33:17,387 --> 00:33:18,621
My eye!

386
00:33:18,623 --> 00:33:21,056
Mr. Armstrong.

387
00:33:21,058 --> 00:33:22,423
When did you start swimming?

388
00:33:22,425 --> 00:33:23,491
I don't remember exactly.

389
00:33:23,493 --> 00:33:25,493
- I think school.
- In high school?

390
00:33:25,495 --> 00:33:27,797
Yeah, and we had a...
we, uh...

391
00:33:27,799 --> 00:33:29,598
like, a summer house
in northern Wisconsin,

392
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,067
and I just used to go
to the lake and, uh, fish.

393
00:33:32,069 --> 00:33:34,435
And I just used to swim
for miles and miles.

394
00:33:34,437 --> 00:33:36,073
I've-I've always loved it.

395
00:33:37,874 --> 00:33:39,842
Nothing quite compares

396
00:33:39,844 --> 00:33:41,110
to your terrible life.

397
00:33:44,015 --> 00:33:45,581
Oh...

398
00:33:45,583 --> 00:33:46,951
You got it coming.

399
00:33:52,657 --> 00:33:55,024
It's the longest bridge
in the world, but there's no...

400
00:33:55,026 --> 00:33:57,425
It's the second-largest
suspension bridge in the world,

401
00:33:57,427 --> 00:33:58,896
but these cables are the longest...

402
00:34:00,631 --> 00:34:02,565
- Hey, Ed.
- Oh, hi.

403
00:34:02,567 --> 00:34:04,433
Uh, can I speak with Neil?

404
00:34:04,435 --> 00:34:06,002
Yeah, sure.
Why don't you come on in?

405
00:34:06,004 --> 00:34:07,569
You're soaked.

406
00:34:07,571 --> 00:34:09,839
No, I'll-I'll...
I'll wait here.

407
00:34:09,841 --> 00:34:12,008
Thanks.

408
00:34:12,010 --> 00:34:13,576
You could fly under there.

409
00:34:13,578 --> 00:34:15,711
That would hurt
if you jumped under it.

410
00:34:15,713 --> 00:34:17,546
- What's that?
- That would hurt

411
00:34:17,548 --> 00:34:20,182
if you jumped over it.

412
00:34:20,184 --> 00:34:22,052
Yeah.

413
00:34:22,054 --> 00:34:23,519
Uh, here are the sky pieces.

414
00:34:23,521 --> 00:34:24,887
Neil, Ed's outside.

415
00:34:24,889 --> 00:34:26,088
Okay.

416
00:34:26,090 --> 00:34:27,525
Excuse me, son.

417
00:34:29,460 --> 00:34:30,993
Hi.

418
00:34:30,995 --> 00:34:32,695
You want to come in?

419
00:34:32,697 --> 00:34:34,465
Some bad news about Elliot.

420
00:34:38,803 --> 00:34:41,470
No, I know. Deke told me
he bumped him, but with...

421
00:34:41,472 --> 00:34:42,905
Neil, Elliot and Charlie
were flying

422
00:34:42,907 --> 00:34:44,540
into St. Louis this morning.

423
00:34:44,542 --> 00:34:46,778
Their T-38 crashed on approach.

424
00:34:52,117 --> 00:34:53,752
Oh.

425
00:34:58,090 --> 00:35:00,025
There was a lot of fog.

426
00:35:14,606 --> 00:35:17,542
So, did you really fly
under that bridge?

427
00:35:23,682 --> 00:35:26,049
Was it fun?

428
00:35:26,051 --> 00:35:28,551
Were you scared?

429
00:35:28,553 --> 00:35:31,054
Ricky. Honey.

430
00:35:31,056 --> 00:35:33,991
Why don't you go and get your
homework so I can check it?

431
00:35:33,993 --> 00:35:35,527
Yes, ma'am.

432
00:35:41,868 --> 00:35:43,769
Who was it?

433
00:35:54,147 --> 00:35:56,914
Shit.
How the hell did this happen?

434
00:35:58,818 --> 00:36:02,086
Cernan told me cloud cover
was down to 500 feet.

435
00:36:02,088 --> 00:36:04,088
Probably never
saw the building.

436
00:36:04,090 --> 00:36:06,090
Clearly, the error
was the approach.

437
00:36:06,092 --> 00:36:08,094
He was coming in too slow
to reach the runway.

438
00:36:13,032 --> 00:36:14,634
What?

439
00:36:16,269 --> 00:36:18,236
You know Deke had
his doubts about him.

440
00:36:18,238 --> 00:36:21,572
That's why he moved Elliot
off Eight.

441
00:36:21,574 --> 00:36:24,009
Deke gave Elliot
his own command.

442
00:36:24,011 --> 00:36:25,843
Elliot wasn't
aggressive enough.

443
00:36:25,845 --> 00:36:27,845
You of all people
have to know that.

444
00:36:27,847 --> 00:36:30,015
No, I don't.

445
00:36:30,017 --> 00:36:32,850
I didn't investigate the crash.

446
00:36:32,852 --> 00:36:34,819
I didn't study
the flight trajectory.

447
00:36:34,821 --> 00:36:37,154
And I wasn't the one
flying the plane.

448
00:36:37,156 --> 00:36:39,959
So I wouldn't pretend
to know anything.

449
00:36:43,997 --> 00:36:46,766
We'll never be
a hundred percent sure.

450
00:37:34,048 --> 00:37:36,149
Can we go?

451
00:37:36,151 --> 00:37:38,784
Uh... uh, not right now.

452
00:37:38,786 --> 00:37:41,154
I want to help Marilyn
clear all this up.

453
00:37:41,156 --> 00:37:44,024
I don't want to have her do it
after we're gone.

454
00:37:49,129 --> 00:37:50,731
Neil?

455
00:37:59,007 --> 00:38:00,373
I'm sorry.

456
00:38:00,375 --> 00:38:02,275
I hate to be a bother.

457
00:38:02,277 --> 00:38:04,343
- Oh, Jan, it's no bother.
- Oh, Jan.

458
00:38:04,345 --> 00:38:06,312
Yeah, no.

459
00:38:06,314 --> 00:38:08,283
Neil's, uh...

460
00:38:12,986 --> 00:38:16,222
There was a year
when we were at Edwards...

461
00:38:16,224 --> 00:38:17,859
Four pilots died.

462
00:38:21,830 --> 00:38:23,763
We got good at funerals
that year.

463
00:38:25,766 --> 00:38:28,336
We haven't been to one
in a while.

464
00:38:31,772 --> 00:38:34,075
Does he ever talk to you
about Karen, Ed?

465
00:38:35,710 --> 00:38:38,046
Not really. No.

466
00:38:41,317 --> 00:38:43,384
Does he talk to you about her?

467
00:38:44,819 --> 00:38:46,355
No.

468
00:38:48,290 --> 00:38:50,089
Never.

469
00:39:24,726 --> 00:39:26,061
Hey, buddy.

470
00:39:28,464 --> 00:39:30,698
You know,
you should be with Jan.

471
00:39:32,368 --> 00:39:34,868
Neil, you should be playing
with your kids.

472
00:39:34,870 --> 00:39:37,971
You know, putting them
into bed.

473
00:39:37,973 --> 00:39:39,840
- Times like these...
- Do you think I'm standing

474
00:39:39,842 --> 00:39:41,509
out here in the backyard

475
00:39:41,511 --> 00:39:44,344
'cause I want to talk
to somebody, Ed?

476
00:39:44,346 --> 00:39:46,916
I'm sorry?

477
00:39:48,351 --> 00:39:50,017
Do you think I left there

478
00:39:50,019 --> 00:39:52,289
'cause I want to talk
to somebody?

479
00:40:13,375 --> 00:40:15,075
<i>T-minus one minute</i>

480
00:40:15,077 --> 00:40:17,280
<i>and counting
on the Atlas-Agena launch.</i>

481
00:40:46,309 --> 00:40:47,543
Liftoff.

482
00:40:47,545 --> 00:40:49,778
Agena is go.

483
00:40:52,215 --> 00:40:54,082
Flight dynamics for unmanned

484
00:40:54,084 --> 00:40:56,851
Agena target vehicle
looking good.

485
00:40:56,853 --> 00:40:59,257
Stand by for Gemini launch.

486
00:41:22,913 --> 00:41:23,914
Yeah.

487
00:41:38,562 --> 00:41:40,596
Okay.

488
00:41:40,598 --> 00:41:42,099
All right.

489
00:41:44,635 --> 00:41:47,169
Guaymas,
read you loud and clear.

490
00:41:47,171 --> 00:41:50,439
We have S band track.
We have just locked up on TM.

491
00:41:50,441 --> 00:41:51,507
All right. Yeah, what's that?

492
00:41:51,509 --> 00:41:53,142
- What's-what's happening?
- Uh, did you say

493
00:41:53,144 --> 00:41:54,076
- all systems go on TM?
- Yeah, yeah.

494
00:41:54,078 --> 00:41:55,577
Let me see. All right.

495
00:41:55,579 --> 00:41:57,112
All right,
hold still. Hold still.

496
00:41:57,114 --> 00:41:58,347
- What is that?
- Hold on.

497
00:41:58,349 --> 00:42:00,582
Scoot...
Can you scoot down at all?

498
00:42:00,584 --> 00:42:02,551
All right.

499
00:42:02,553 --> 00:42:03,952
- Hey.
- What are you doing?

500
00:42:03,954 --> 00:42:05,455
Has anybody got
a Swiss Army knife?

501
00:42:05,457 --> 00:42:07,956
- Hold on, hold on a sec.
- What'd you say?

502
00:42:07,958 --> 00:42:10,059
- See if this will do the trick.
- Yeah. - A Swiss Army knife?

503
00:42:10,061 --> 00:42:12,062
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

504
00:42:12,064 --> 00:42:13,996
- It's just a little...
- Are you kidding me?

505
00:42:13,998 --> 00:42:15,565
- There we go.
- You got it. - A little lower.

506
00:42:15,567 --> 00:42:18,401
- Good Lord.
- Guaymas, Agena is go.

507
00:42:18,403 --> 00:42:20,171
Roger, Guaymas.

508
00:43:35,047 --> 00:43:36,613
Switching to HF.

509
00:43:36,615 --> 00:43:38,181
One, two, three, four, five.

510
00:43:38,183 --> 00:43:40,317
Five, four, three, two, one.
Check out.

511
00:43:40,319 --> 00:43:42,419
Copy. T-minus two minutes.

512
00:43:42,421 --> 00:43:45,423
- Engines to start.
- Ground power removal.

513
00:43:45,425 --> 00:43:46,590
Stage two
prevalves coming open.

514
00:43:46,592 --> 00:43:47,759
Five seconds.

515
00:44:37,811 --> 00:44:39,711
T-minus 20 seconds. Mark.

516
00:44:49,322 --> 00:44:53,091
Ten, nine,

517
00:44:53,093 --> 00:44:57,162

518
00:44:57,164 --> 00:44:59,664

521
00:45:05,272 --> 00:45:07,641
Ignition.

522
00:45:14,448 --> 00:45:16,083
Liftoff.

523
00:45:24,725 --> 00:45:28,360
Clock is running.
Got a roll program in.

524
00:45:28,362 --> 00:45:29,629
Roger. Roll.

525
00:45:29,631 --> 00:45:31,162
Good liftoff, Eight.

526
00:45:41,174 --> 00:45:42,807
- Pitch program.
- Roger. Pitch program.

527
00:45:53,221 --> 00:45:55,387
DCS update received.

528
00:45:55,389 --> 00:45:56,724
Roger. DCS.

529
00:46:05,834 --> 00:46:08,166
Stage two tanks look good.

530
00:46:08,168 --> 00:46:10,104
That's about
three and a half g's.

531
00:46:47,241 --> 00:46:49,742
Go from the ground for staging.

532
00:46:49,744 --> 00:46:51,547
Roger.

533
00:47:04,927 --> 00:47:07,594
Fuel cells are solid.

534
00:47:07,596 --> 00:47:09,930
Gemini 8. Mark.

535
00:47:09,932 --> 00:47:13,667
V over Vr is, uh, .08.

536
00:47:13,669 --> 00:47:15,771
Okay. Mode three.

537
00:47:21,944 --> 00:47:23,780
We had SECO.

538
00:48:10,994 --> 00:48:15,763
"...fear that someone
will break in

539
00:48:15,765 --> 00:48:18,000
and steal all of my..."

540
00:48:18,002 --> 00:48:19,867
Okay, we're all set.

541
00:48:19,869 --> 00:48:21,803
"...Hank Williams..."

542
00:48:21,805 --> 00:48:23,839
Transmitting maneuver load.

543
00:48:23,841 --> 00:48:26,908
It's a height adjust.

544
00:48:26,910 --> 00:48:29,978
Height adjust. Got DCS.

545
00:48:29,980 --> 00:48:33,381
Roger. And are you ready
to copy the update? Over.

546
00:48:33,383 --> 00:48:35,383
Okay.
Go with the update, Hawaii.

547
00:48:35,385 --> 00:48:40,288
Roger. G.E.T. B-13437.

548
00:48:40,290 --> 00:48:42,990
Delta-V, two-decimal-nine.

549
00:48:42,992 --> 00:48:45,526
Burn time,
zero plus zero-five...

550
00:48:48,398 --> 00:48:50,732
Hey, Mom, can I get you
anything?

551
00:48:50,734 --> 00:48:51,869
He's doing good.

552
00:48:53,637 --> 00:48:55,470
"Constant."

553
00:48:55,472 --> 00:48:58,040
"How can you do push-ups

554
00:48:58,042 --> 00:49:00,675
when your nose gets
in the way?"

555
00:49:00,677 --> 00:49:02,677
Roger, Hawaii. Got it.

556
00:49:02,679 --> 00:49:03,912
This is Paul Haney

557
00:49:03,914 --> 00:49:05,414
at Gemini Control Houston.

558
00:49:05,416 --> 00:49:07,850
Our display chart
shows Gemini 8 in orbit.

559
00:49:07,852 --> 00:49:09,417
The crew will now attempt

560
00:49:09,419 --> 00:49:11,353
to find the unmanned
Agena spacecraft

561
00:49:11,355 --> 00:49:13,321
and dock with it.

562
00:49:31,742 --> 00:49:33,410
- Burn end.
- Good burn.

563
00:49:47,458 --> 00:49:49,560
Shouldn't we have a visual
on the Agena by now?

564
00:49:54,131 --> 00:49:56,565
Houston, I think
we overdid it a little.

565
00:49:56,567 --> 00:49:57,633
We should have stopped early.

566
00:49:57,635 --> 00:49:58,935
Uh, roger.

567
00:49:58,937 --> 00:50:00,803
Uh, Eight, stand by
for a correction.

568
00:50:02,006 --> 00:50:03,405
So we're getting
the difference.

569
00:50:03,407 --> 00:50:04,573
I'm on that.

570
00:50:04,575 --> 00:50:05,974
FIDO, Flight. How we doing?

571
00:50:05,976 --> 00:50:08,044
Okay, we got a solid track
on both vehicles.

572
00:50:08,046 --> 00:50:09,611
Calculating for the burn.

573
00:50:09,613 --> 00:50:12,414
FIDO, Agena. Do you have
what you need from us?

574
00:50:12,416 --> 00:50:14,751
FIDO, did you copy that?

575
00:50:14,753 --> 00:50:16,886
Roger, Flight. I copy.

576
00:50:16,888 --> 00:50:18,654
- You guys getting this?
- We just have some

577
00:50:18,656 --> 00:50:20,391
ratty data
with the Gemini computer.

578
00:50:22,527 --> 00:50:24,626
Need the correction, gentlemen.
Let's go.

579
00:50:24,628 --> 00:50:25,895
- Sending it up now.
- Okay, CAPCOM,

580
00:50:25,897 --> 00:50:27,130
let's get it up to them.

581
00:50:27,132 --> 00:50:28,698
This is Houston CAPCOM.

582
00:50:28,700 --> 00:50:30,834
Uh, we're gonna need you
to do another burn here

583
00:50:30,836 --> 00:50:32,669
very shortly,
so stand by to copy.

584
00:50:32,671 --> 00:50:36,806
Uh, G.E.T. B-030341.

585
00:50:36,808 --> 00:50:40,844
Uh, Delta-V
is two seconds posigrade.

586
00:50:40,846 --> 00:50:42,544
Two feet...

587
00:50:42,546 --> 00:50:46,049
Uh, Delta-V
is two feet posigrade.

588
00:50:46,051 --> 00:50:48,751
Uh, Eight, do you copy?

589
00:50:52,557 --> 00:50:53,891
Mark.

590
00:50:53,893 --> 00:50:55,124
Two feet posigrade...

591
00:50:55,126 --> 00:50:56,626
Give that back, Mark.
Give that back.

592
00:50:56,628 --> 00:50:58,561
Put it back on the table.
Give me it.

593
00:50:58,563 --> 00:51:00,530
Honey, give me it.

594
00:51:00,532 --> 00:51:02,131
It's really important.

595
00:51:02,133 --> 00:51:04,168
Give that back to Mom
right now.

596
00:51:04,170 --> 00:51:06,169
Do you copy?

597
00:51:06,171 --> 00:51:09,139
Mark Armstrong, if you
don't give me that back...

598
00:51:09,141 --> 00:51:10,708
Eight, do you copy?

599
00:51:10,710 --> 00:51:12,208
I'm not joking, Mark.

600
00:51:12,210 --> 00:51:14,777
I'm getting a horrendous

601
00:51:14,779 --> 00:51:17,448
20 to 25 feet
per second down, Neil.

602
00:51:17,450 --> 00:51:19,782
I can't see any possible
reason for that.

603
00:51:19,784 --> 00:51:21,551
- Where are we on the plot?
- We're above it.

604
00:51:21,553 --> 00:51:22,920
Right, but what does it
look like if...

605
00:51:22,922 --> 00:51:24,921
I can't. I'm sorry.
I have to...

606
00:51:24,923 --> 00:51:26,957
- I have to look at this.
- Okay.

607
00:51:26,959 --> 00:51:29,026
Eight, can you give us a status?

608
00:51:29,028 --> 00:51:31,228
No. I got too much to do.

609
00:51:31,230 --> 00:51:33,197
Copy. Standing by.

610
00:51:35,735 --> 00:51:38,168
Okay, we're gonna go
with a closed loop.

611
00:51:38,170 --> 00:51:42,106
25 forward,
eight left, three up,

612
00:51:42,108 --> 00:51:44,176
and I'm going to rate command.

613
00:51:47,713 --> 00:51:50,948
Three, two, one.

614
00:51:50,950 --> 00:51:52,116
Burn.

615
00:52:33,727 --> 00:52:35,193
Could be a planet.

616
00:52:35,195 --> 00:52:37,563
Could be.

617
00:52:41,901 --> 00:52:43,701
This is Houston.

618
00:52:43,703 --> 00:52:46,071
We have your ground TPI backup
when you're ready to copy.

619
00:52:46,073 --> 00:52:47,273
Uh, stand by.

620
00:52:47,275 --> 00:52:49,040
We have a visual on the Agena.

621
00:52:49,042 --> 00:52:52,711
At least something
we think looks like the Agena.

622
00:52:52,713 --> 00:52:55,814
Understand.
Possible visual on the Agena.

623
00:52:55,816 --> 00:52:58,217
- We're getting a little out of plane now.
- Uh, yeah.

624
00:52:58,219 --> 00:53:00,785
Uh, we gotta get three aft
and two and a half up.

625
00:53:00,787 --> 00:53:01,953
I'm going to start braking.

626
00:53:01,955 --> 00:53:03,755
Give me a digital range
and rate.

627
00:53:09,129 --> 00:53:10,628
I better back off a bit.

628
00:53:10,630 --> 00:53:12,998
6,000 feet,
31 feet per second.

629
00:53:16,737 --> 00:53:18,136
Put in a little to the left.

630
00:53:18,138 --> 00:53:20,138
1,680 feet.

631
00:53:26,713 --> 00:53:29,648
That's unbelievable.

632
00:53:29,650 --> 00:53:32,120
Would you look at that?

633
00:53:41,262 --> 00:53:43,229
You tell 'em.

634
00:53:47,101 --> 00:53:49,834
Houston, we're
station-keeping on the Agena

635
00:53:49,836 --> 00:53:52,338
about 150 feet.

636
00:53:52,340 --> 00:53:54,706
Okay, stay focused, gentlemen.

637
00:53:54,708 --> 00:53:56,976
- We're only halfway there.
- Nice job, guys.

638
00:53:56,978 --> 00:54:00,379
- Thanks for the extra hands.
- Let's do this, huh?

639
00:54:04,253 --> 00:54:05,987
Stay focused, gentlemen.

640
00:54:27,209 --> 00:54:29,209
Man, it flies easy.

641
00:54:29,211 --> 00:54:30,976
Does it really?

642
00:54:30,978 --> 00:54:33,746
The station-keeping,
it's just...

643
00:54:33,748 --> 00:54:35,850
it's like nothing.

644
00:54:44,792 --> 00:54:47,427
Uh, RKV, this is Eight.

645
00:54:47,429 --> 00:54:49,829
We're sitting
about two feet out.

646
00:54:49,831 --> 00:54:51,131
Uh, roger.

647
00:54:51,133 --> 00:54:53,200
Uh, stand by for a couple
of minutes here.

648
00:54:53,202 --> 00:54:55,034
Roger.

649
00:54:55,036 --> 00:54:56,770
Okay, Gemini 8,

650
00:54:56,772 --> 00:54:58,238
uh, we have TM solid.

651
00:54:58,240 --> 00:54:59,738
You're looking good
on the ground.

652
00:54:59,740 --> 00:55:01,842
Go ahead and dock.

653
00:55:18,260 --> 00:55:21,763
Okay. We're gonna cycle
our Rigid-Stop switch now.

654
00:55:46,389 --> 00:55:48,255
Flight, we are docked.

655
00:55:58,501 --> 00:56:00,767
Someone call Cronkite!

656
00:56:00,769 --> 00:56:03,771
Have him tell the Soviets
that they can go screw!

657
00:56:03,773 --> 00:56:06,006
Get him on the phone, man.

658
00:56:06,008 --> 00:56:07,375
Hey, Pete!
Hey, call those idiots

659
00:56:07,377 --> 00:56:08,976
at Congress while you're at it.

660
00:56:08,978 --> 00:56:11,978
- Yeah, I'll start with Rhode Island.
- Huh?

661
00:56:11,980 --> 00:56:14,916
Oh, damn.

662
00:56:14,918 --> 00:56:16,418
Well done.
Let's go ahead and get

663
00:56:16,420 --> 00:56:18,419
a state vector
on the combined spacecraft.

664
00:56:18,421 --> 00:56:20,755
Gemini 8,
this is Houston CAPCOM.

665
00:56:20,757 --> 00:56:21,889
Please stand by to copy.

666
00:56:21,891 --> 00:56:22,957
Check out my room like this.

667
00:56:22,959 --> 00:56:24,926
- But I don't think...
- Look at all these papers.

668
00:56:24,928 --> 00:56:26,127
I know.

669
00:56:26,129 --> 00:56:28,397
I spent days
trying to work on that,

670
00:56:28,399 --> 00:56:30,364
and now it's crumpled up.

671
00:56:30,366 --> 00:56:32,900
- Look at my drawer!
- I know.

672
00:56:32,902 --> 00:56:34,469
I had all my crayons in that,

673
00:56:34,471 --> 00:56:36,504
and now look
at all the crayons.

674
00:56:36,506 --> 00:56:38,306
But, Ricky, are you telling me
the full story?

675
00:56:38,308 --> 00:56:40,142
'Cause I'm not sure your
brother would do that unless...

676
00:56:40,144 --> 00:56:41,876
Yes, I am telling you!
Look at this!

677
00:56:41,878 --> 00:56:43,545
Now, don't you get angry
with me.

678
00:56:43,547 --> 00:56:45,214
Don't get upset.

679
00:56:45,216 --> 00:56:46,882
Uh, Eight, this is Houston.

680
00:56:46,884 --> 00:56:48,916
Uh, I've got a nodal update
for you. Stand by.

681
00:56:48,918 --> 00:56:50,785
Anybody try calling
about the appointment?

682
00:56:50,787 --> 00:56:52,821
Okay, go ahead.

683
00:56:52,823 --> 00:56:54,222
- Rick!
- Roger.

684
00:56:54,224 --> 00:56:56,358
Node 070447...

685
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,460
Okay. Out here now.

686
00:56:58,462 --> 00:57:00,027
Out here now.

687
00:57:00,029 --> 00:57:01,829
Against 51552 right ascension.

688
00:57:01,831 --> 00:57:04,132
Gemini 8, we're
about to have a loss of signal.

689
00:57:04,134 --> 00:57:05,967
- Where have you gone?
- We'll pick you up

690
00:57:05,969 --> 00:57:07,902
over the hill for Dave's E.V.A.

691
00:57:15,446 --> 00:57:19,248
Well, that's peculiar.

692
00:57:19,250 --> 00:57:21,283
Oh, good.

693
00:57:21,285 --> 00:57:23,985
I'm hoping
that's just excess hydrogen.

694
00:57:23,987 --> 00:57:25,954
I think I'm gonna
save mine for later.

695
00:57:27,191 --> 00:57:28,391
Little treat.

696
00:57:33,397 --> 00:57:35,267
Uh, Neil, we're in a bank.

697
00:57:42,906 --> 00:57:45,240
We're not doing it.
It's-it's not us. It must be...

698
00:57:45,242 --> 00:57:47,509
Shut off the Agena's
control systems.

699
00:57:47,511 --> 00:57:51,115
Code 400,
Agena control system shutdown.

700
00:58:15,073 --> 00:58:17,040
Cycle the Agena.

701
00:58:17,042 --> 00:58:18,173
Turning it on.

702
00:58:18,175 --> 00:58:20,109
Turning it off.

703
00:58:44,936 --> 00:58:46,637
I'm gonna cycle the ACME

704
00:58:46,639 --> 00:58:49,105
and the propellant
motor valves.

705
00:58:49,107 --> 00:58:51,240
Switching ADL to pitch.

706
00:58:51,242 --> 00:58:53,212
RL to pitch.

707
00:58:59,584 --> 00:59:01,019
Roll meter 200 and rising.

708
00:59:04,924 --> 00:59:05,988
Separate from the Agena.

709
00:59:08,193 --> 00:59:11,028
Setting Agena
to allow remote command.

710
00:59:11,030 --> 00:59:12,529
Switching on the DAC.

711
00:59:12,531 --> 00:59:14,063
Make sure you give it
extra thrust

712
00:59:14,065 --> 00:59:15,399
so we don't smash
into the Agena.

713
00:59:15,401 --> 00:59:16,934
On my mark, undock.

714
00:59:19,137 --> 00:59:22,039
Two. One.

715
00:59:37,289 --> 00:59:39,724
OAMS propellant, 13%.

716
00:59:39,726 --> 00:59:41,692
It's not the Agena. It's us.

717
01:00:04,150 --> 01:00:08,686
Gemini 8, coming back
into range in three, two, one.

718
01:00:08,688 --> 01:00:11,022
This is CSQ,
checking our comm link.

719
01:00:11,024 --> 01:00:12,623
How do you read?

720
01:00:14,126 --> 01:00:17,028
Gemini 8, how do you read?

721
01:00:17,030 --> 01:00:18,996
We have serious problems.

722
01:00:18,998 --> 01:00:21,132
We're tumbling
end over end up here.

723
01:00:21,134 --> 01:00:22,734
We're disengaged
from the Agena.

724
01:00:22,736 --> 01:00:25,169
Okay, we got your spacecraft

725
01:00:25,171 --> 01:00:27,305
free indication here.

726
01:00:27,307 --> 01:00:29,373
What seems to be the problem?

727
01:00:29,375 --> 01:00:32,210
We're rolling up,
and we can't turn anything off.

728
01:00:32,212 --> 01:00:34,012
We're continuously increasing
in a left roll.

729
01:00:34,014 --> 01:00:35,345
CSQ, Flight.

730
01:00:35,347 --> 01:00:36,681
Go ahead, Flight.

731
01:00:36,683 --> 01:00:39,584
Did he say he cannot turn
the Agena off?

732
01:00:39,586 --> 01:00:42,420
Uh, no, he says
he's separated from the Agena

733
01:00:42,422 --> 01:00:45,523
and he's in a roll
and he can't stop it.

734
01:00:45,525 --> 01:00:48,259
Flight, their roll meter
reads 270 and rising.

735
01:00:48,261 --> 01:00:49,694
At that rate,
they'll be passing out

736
01:00:49,696 --> 01:00:51,531
in about 40 seconds.

737
01:00:52,633 --> 01:00:53,700
Paul.

738
01:00:54,801 --> 01:00:56,636
Paul.

739
01:00:58,473 --> 01:01:00,638
Trying to stop the rates.

740
01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,677
We certainly have...

741
01:01:52,761 --> 01:01:54,295
We can't...

742
01:02:16,285 --> 01:02:18,617
Close the RCS breakers.

743
01:02:21,757 --> 01:02:24,623
- Dave!
- Gemini 8, did you say

744
01:02:24,625 --> 01:02:27,661
you are closing RCS breakers?

745
01:02:27,663 --> 01:02:31,665
Are you initiating RCS?

746
01:02:31,667 --> 01:02:36,770
Gemini 8, again, did you say
you are closing RCS breakers?

747
01:02:36,772 --> 01:02:39,873
You will not be able
to control your attitude.

748
01:03:06,635 --> 01:03:07,834
Okay.

749
01:03:07,836 --> 01:03:10,270
We're regaining control
of the spacecraft.

750
01:03:10,272 --> 01:03:12,238
Slowly in RCS direct.

751
01:03:13,943 --> 01:03:16,209
Roger.

752
01:03:16,211 --> 01:03:17,677
Roger. Copy.

753
01:03:17,679 --> 01:03:19,179
We're pulsing the RCS slowly.

754
01:03:19,181 --> 01:03:20,513
It's all roll right.

755
01:03:20,515 --> 01:03:23,316
We're trying to kill
our roll rate here.

756
01:03:31,694 --> 01:03:34,562
Move us back to one ring.

757
01:03:34,564 --> 01:03:35,595
Copy.

758
01:03:45,875 --> 01:03:47,641
<i>I want
emergency landing options.</i>

759
01:03:47,643 --> 01:03:50,245
Wait until you find out
how much fuel they have left.

760
01:03:51,848 --> 01:03:54,314
Bob, what do you think?

761
01:03:54,316 --> 01:03:56,319
I think they'd better land now.

762
01:04:00,623 --> 01:04:03,693
Deke, Jan's outside.

763
01:04:19,509 --> 01:04:21,677
Jan, the ship is stable.
They're gonna be all right.

764
01:04:21,679 --> 01:04:23,544
He's okay, Jan.

765
01:04:23,546 --> 01:04:24,945
I need you to go home.

766
01:04:24,947 --> 01:04:26,614
Fine. Turn the box back on.

767
01:04:26,616 --> 01:04:28,016
- I'll see what I can do...
- Now.

768
01:04:28,018 --> 01:04:31,585
Turn the box back on now.

769
01:04:31,587 --> 01:04:32,921
Well, there's
security protocol in place.

770
01:04:32,923 --> 01:04:34,489
Well, I don't give a damn.

771
01:04:34,491 --> 01:04:36,390
I've got a dozen cameras
on my front lawn, Deke.

772
01:04:36,392 --> 01:04:37,926
Do you want me telling them
what's going on?

773
01:04:37,928 --> 01:04:39,828
Jan, you have to trust us.

774
01:04:39,830 --> 01:04:41,395
We've got this under control.

775
01:04:41,397 --> 01:04:43,297
- No, you don't.
- We've...

776
01:04:43,299 --> 01:04:44,733
All these protocols
and procedures

777
01:04:44,735 --> 01:04:47,468
to make it seem like
you have it under control.

778
01:04:47,470 --> 01:04:49,537
But you're a bunch of boys

779
01:04:49,539 --> 01:04:51,373
making models
out of balsa wood.

780
01:04:51,375 --> 01:04:53,574
You don't have anything
under control.

781
01:04:58,449 --> 01:05:00,314
Naha Rescue One will be

782
01:05:00,316 --> 01:05:04,453
on station at splashdown
with a flotation collar.

783
01:05:04,455 --> 01:05:06,822
Did you get the call signs?

784
01:05:06,824 --> 01:05:08,356
Uh, yeah.

785
01:05:08,358 --> 01:05:10,694
It's Naha Rescue One,
Naha Search One.

786
01:05:12,930 --> 01:05:14,830
Well, I'd like to argue
with them

787
01:05:14,832 --> 01:05:17,632
about the going home,
but I'm...

788
01:05:17,634 --> 01:05:19,603
not sure how we can.

789
01:05:21,305 --> 01:05:23,437
Yeah.

790
01:05:23,439 --> 01:05:28,580
I just keep thinking, is there
anything else that we forgot?

791
01:05:29,947 --> 01:05:32,316
We did everything,
as far as I know.

792
01:05:45,462 --> 01:05:48,330
<i>Gemini 8 saw
two complex vehicles</i>

793
01:05:48,332 --> 01:05:50,566
<i>launched on the same day
on time.</i>

794
01:05:51,870 --> 01:05:54,036
We saw flawless rendezvous
and docking.

795
01:05:54,038 --> 01:05:56,839
All of which is tended
to be overshadowed

796
01:05:56,841 --> 01:05:59,808
by the malfunction, but, uh,

797
01:05:59,810 --> 01:06:02,044
I think we should focus
on the progress

798
01:06:02,046 --> 01:06:03,946
resulting from the mission.

799
01:06:03,948 --> 01:06:06,381
The board would like to focus

800
01:06:06,383 --> 01:06:07,717
on the malfunction.

801
01:06:07,719 --> 01:06:09,786
Neil, walk us through
the decision

802
01:06:09,788 --> 01:06:12,420
to separate from the Agena.

803
01:06:14,425 --> 01:06:16,559
You mentioned
that the rate of revolution

804
01:06:16,561 --> 01:06:18,426
was more than once a second.

805
01:06:18,428 --> 01:06:20,363
How near were you
to being unconscious?

806
01:06:20,365 --> 01:06:22,065
Did you think to use the Agena

807
01:06:22,067 --> 01:06:23,365
to stabilize
the combined craft?

808
01:06:23,367 --> 01:06:24,734
We did.

809
01:06:24,736 --> 01:06:27,737
This was, uh, not successful.

810
01:06:27,739 --> 01:06:29,972
As I said, we initially assumed

811
01:06:29,974 --> 01:06:32,575
that the anomaly was with
the Agena control system.

812
01:06:32,577 --> 01:06:34,443
'Cause there was no way to know
that a thruster

813
01:06:34,445 --> 01:06:36,078
was causing the...

814
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:41,050
If we could have, uh, isolated
each of Gemini's thrusters,

815
01:06:41,052 --> 01:06:43,619
if we'd had that capability
in the moment...

816
01:06:45,456 --> 01:06:47,857
Agence France. Did you have
any feeling of anxiety

817
01:06:47,859 --> 01:06:50,426
after the failure
of the thrusters?

818
01:06:50,428 --> 01:06:52,496
In the midst of the spinning,
did you seem to realize

819
01:06:52,498 --> 01:06:55,933
or feel the presence of God
closer than other times?

820
01:06:55,935 --> 01:06:57,968
With this so hot
on the heels of the loss

821
01:06:57,970 --> 01:06:59,669
of Charlie Bassett
and Elliot See,

822
01:06:59,671 --> 01:07:01,805
do you question whether
the program's worth the cost?

823
01:07:01,807 --> 01:07:02,975
In money and in lives?

824
01:07:15,554 --> 01:07:17,154
All right, thanks, guys.

825
01:07:17,156 --> 01:07:18,922
We've got a lot to discuss,
and we'll be

826
01:07:18,924 --> 01:07:20,090
back in touch with you soon.

827
01:07:20,092 --> 01:07:21,825
Thank you.

828
01:07:23,494 --> 01:07:25,128
Mm-mm.

829
01:07:25,130 --> 01:07:27,865
No, so we're using
our thumb now, honey.

830
01:07:27,867 --> 01:07:28,966
- Oh.
- Okay.

831
01:07:33,206 --> 01:07:34,972
"Our Wild Ride in Space"?

832
01:07:34,974 --> 01:07:36,840
It's marketing, Mr. Armstrong.

833
01:07:36,842 --> 01:07:38,809
NASA approval numbers
are dropping.

834
01:07:38,811 --> 01:07:40,577
- We need to...
- Well, that's not my concern.

835
01:07:40,579 --> 01:07:42,512
Almost.
Okay, I'm gonna finish, uh,

836
01:07:42,514 --> 01:07:44,115
wrapping your brother's
present. I'll be back.

837
01:07:44,117 --> 01:07:46,516
- You practice that one.
- I'll try.

838
01:07:47,953 --> 01:07:49,453
I'm not interested in how

839
01:07:49,455 --> 01:07:51,457
other magazines
are framing the story.

840
01:08:05,070 --> 01:08:07,140
Okay. Keep going.

841
01:08:08,842 --> 01:08:10,708
<i>If it's any consolation,</i>

842
01:08:10,710 --> 01:08:12,944
<i>Ed was a zombie for weeks
after Gemini 4.</i>

843
01:08:12,946 --> 01:08:14,511
- Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.

844
01:08:15,815 --> 01:08:17,547
Yeah.

845
01:08:17,549 --> 01:08:21,586
I guess it must be, uh,
disorienting for them.

846
01:08:21,588 --> 01:08:23,988
Certainly.

847
01:08:23,990 --> 01:08:26,059
Yeah.

848
01:08:27,827 --> 01:08:30,028
God, Pat.

849
01:08:30,030 --> 01:08:34,166
I married Neil
'cause I wanted a normal life.

850
01:08:35,567 --> 01:08:37,771
I know. I know.

851
01:08:40,107 --> 01:08:42,573
He was just so different from
all the other boys on campus.

852
01:08:42,575 --> 01:08:43,510
Mmm.

853
01:08:44,844 --> 01:08:47,845
He'd been through the war.
You know.

854
01:08:47,847 --> 01:08:50,648
He knew what he wanted to do.

855
01:08:50,650 --> 01:08:52,753
He just seemed so stable.

856
01:08:54,955 --> 01:08:57,557
I guess all I wanted
was stability.

857
01:09:03,563 --> 01:09:06,597
I've got a sorority sister
with a normal life.

858
01:09:06,599 --> 01:09:09,268
- Yeah?
- She married a dentist.

859
01:09:09,270 --> 01:09:10,769
Dentist.

860
01:09:10,771 --> 01:09:12,304
Sounds good.

861
01:09:12,306 --> 01:09:15,641
He's home by 6:00 every night,
and every few months,

862
01:09:15,643 --> 01:09:17,744
she calls to say
she wishes he weren't.

863
01:09:25,820 --> 01:09:27,655
Yeah.

864
01:09:32,593 --> 01:09:34,227
Still working, I see.

865
01:09:34,229 --> 01:09:35,828
Yeah.

866
01:09:35,830 --> 01:09:38,797
Well, I was, uh,

867
01:09:38,799 --> 01:09:41,235
gonna go grab a beer at Dave's.

868
01:09:47,008 --> 01:09:48,674
Yeah, all right. Fine.

869
01:09:48,676 --> 01:09:50,911
I could use a beer.

870
01:09:54,915 --> 01:09:58,584
♪ Sure, so sure, so sure...

871
01:09:58,586 --> 01:10:01,287
You know, I will say one thing.

872
01:10:01,289 --> 01:10:05,357
It's all I can think about,
is getting back up there.

873
01:10:05,359 --> 01:10:07,659
Just caught a rough break.

874
01:10:07,661 --> 01:10:09,829
Well, you boys
did everything right.

875
01:10:09,831 --> 01:10:12,765
Everything. You know, I was
talking about it with Gus,

876
01:10:12,767 --> 01:10:13,799
and we both agreed.

877
01:10:13,801 --> 01:10:15,001
I did hear a little rumor

878
01:10:15,003 --> 01:10:17,036
that you and Gus
have been hanging out.

879
01:10:17,038 --> 01:10:18,070
You did?

880
01:10:18,072 --> 01:10:19,105
Mm-hmm.

881
01:10:19,107 --> 01:10:20,173
Hey.

882
01:10:20,175 --> 01:10:22,609
Is it true?

883
01:10:22,611 --> 01:10:24,645
Is what true?

884
01:10:27,949 --> 01:10:29,615
Deke pulled me aside
and told me

885
01:10:29,617 --> 01:10:31,319
that him and Gus want me
on the crew.

886
01:10:33,088 --> 01:10:34,987
Of the first Apollo?

887
01:10:34,989 --> 01:10:36,823
Yeah.

888
01:10:36,825 --> 01:10:39,025
Yeah. Holy shit.

889
01:10:39,027 --> 01:10:40,160
That's huge.

890
01:10:40,162 --> 01:10:42,628
Congratulations.

891
01:10:42,630 --> 01:10:44,631
I gotta shake your hand.

892
01:10:44,633 --> 01:10:46,300
- Thanks, man.
- Wow.

893
01:10:46,302 --> 01:10:47,901
That Saturn's a monster.

894
01:10:47,903 --> 01:10:49,669
You're in for one heck
of a ride.

895
01:10:49,671 --> 01:10:51,905
- It is.
- Oh, hey, uh, uh,

896
01:10:51,907 --> 01:10:53,273
you know Deke wants Gus to be

897
01:10:53,275 --> 01:10:54,974
the first one
on the Moon, so...

898
01:10:54,976 --> 01:10:58,012
Hey, that puts you in the LEM
with him for the landing.

899
01:10:58,014 --> 01:10:59,779
- Oh, no, no, no, let's not...
- Ed.

900
01:10:59,781 --> 01:11:01,281
- Let's not get carried away.
- All right.

901
01:11:01,283 --> 01:11:03,350
Get out of my house.
I gotta go to bed.

902
01:11:03,352 --> 01:11:06,986
I'm not kidding. Get out of my house.

903
01:11:08,090 --> 01:11:09,225
Neil.

904
01:11:11,193 --> 01:11:12,725
Hey, Neil.
Don't bother sitting.

905
01:11:12,727 --> 01:11:14,195
It's going to be
a short meeting.

906
01:11:14,197 --> 01:11:16,330
We've talked it through.
We think it's pretty clear.

907
01:11:16,332 --> 01:11:18,765
If you hadn't kept cool,
you wouldn't be here,

908
01:11:18,767 --> 01:11:20,733
and we'd still be asking
what the hell happened.

909
01:11:20,735 --> 01:11:22,802
So would Congress.
It's a showstopper.

910
01:11:22,804 --> 01:11:24,170
This mission was a success.

911
01:11:24,172 --> 01:11:26,040
We're full steam ahead
for Apollo.

912
01:11:26,042 --> 01:11:27,808
You good with that?

913
01:11:27,810 --> 01:11:29,909
- Yes, sir.
- I trust you won't mind

914
01:11:29,911 --> 01:11:31,780
representing us
at the White House.

915
01:11:34,350 --> 01:11:36,951
- No, sir.
- Good.

916
01:11:36,953 --> 01:11:39,055
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

917
01:11:40,256 --> 01:11:42,056
Thank you.

918
01:11:42,058 --> 01:11:44,191
"Interface problems and develop

919
01:11:44,193 --> 01:11:46,826
operational techniques
for the most efficient use of,"

920
01:11:46,828 --> 01:11:50,097
uh, "onboard capabilities."

921
01:11:50,099 --> 01:11:51,999
What?

922
01:11:54,170 --> 01:11:56,237
No, it's not...

923
01:11:56,239 --> 01:11:58,273
I got one.

924
01:11:58,275 --> 01:12:00,174
- I got one.
- No! No!

925
01:12:00,176 --> 01:12:01,709
I got one.

926
01:12:01,711 --> 01:12:02,611
I don't know
why you're laughing.

927
01:12:02,613 --> 01:12:03,677
He's gonna do that to you
in a minute.

928
01:12:03,679 --> 01:12:06,380
This time, I'm gonna
put this one in the freezer.

929
01:12:06,382 --> 01:12:08,015
- You need a hand?
- Yeah.

930
01:12:08,017 --> 01:12:09,917
- Okay, in you go.
- Can you open the freezer?

931
01:12:09,919 --> 01:12:11,285
Let's keep him for longer,

932
01:12:11,287 --> 01:12:13,355
and then he won't let...
In you go. In you go.

933
01:12:24,167 --> 01:12:27,335
I got one. I got one.

934
01:12:27,337 --> 01:12:28,436
Because I want to.

935
01:12:28,438 --> 01:12:29,970
Who did... who did what?

936
01:12:29,972 --> 01:12:31,906
- Me.
- Have you seen his room?

937
01:12:31,908 --> 01:12:33,844
Son, go stand in the corner.

938
01:12:38,348 --> 01:12:40,415
It's not funny.

939
01:12:43,020 --> 01:12:44,886
Thanks a lot, Mark!

940
01:12:44,888 --> 01:12:46,987
- Stop laughing.
- You're lying!

941
01:12:46,989 --> 01:12:48,256
Just, you stop it.

942
01:12:48,258 --> 01:12:50,158
You're the reason he's upset.

943
01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:51,893
- Your mother's not laughing.
- I'm not laughing.

944
01:12:51,895 --> 01:12:53,027
- I'm... crying.
- She's crying.

945
01:12:53,029 --> 01:12:54,164
It's not yours!

946
01:12:57,968 --> 01:13:00,135
<i>I gotta tell you,</i>

947
01:13:00,137 --> 01:13:02,003
<i>Eddie's started
asking questions</i>

948
01:13:02,005 --> 01:13:04,440
- <i>about the new command module.</i>
- <i>Is that right?</i>

949
01:13:04,442 --> 01:13:07,008
<i>Yeah, he wants to...
wants to know if it's gonna</i>

950
01:13:07,010 --> 01:13:08,877
fly any different to Gemini.

951
01:13:08,879 --> 01:13:11,346
If the little buttons
are gonna be in the same place.

952
01:13:12,816 --> 01:13:14,417
- Oh, boy.
- Yeah.

953
01:13:14,419 --> 01:13:17,319
You got yourself
a little engineer there.

954
01:13:17,321 --> 01:13:21,259
I tell you, though,
I love that he's interested.

955
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:26,429
Came in the other morning,
he did.

956
01:13:26,431 --> 01:13:29,464
Comes running up,
and he says, "Daddy,

957
01:13:29,466 --> 01:13:32,969
"if you go to the Moon, are you
gonna be lonely out there?

958
01:13:32,971 --> 01:13:35,305
So far away from the Earth."

959
01:13:38,042 --> 01:13:40,011
"All of us back here at home."

960
01:13:42,480 --> 01:13:45,483
This-this whole thing
is expanding his horizons.

961
01:13:47,352 --> 01:13:49,786
It, uh, gives me faith.

962
01:13:51,189 --> 01:13:53,156
It make sense?

963
01:13:56,894 --> 01:13:59,896
Walkers got a new swing set.

964
01:14:01,432 --> 01:14:03,368
Yeah, I noticed that.

965
01:14:13,177 --> 01:14:17,515
We had a swing like that
back up in Juniper Hills.

966
01:14:22,053 --> 01:14:24,856
Karen really loved it.

967
01:14:27,459 --> 01:14:29,260
That's your daughter?

968
01:14:38,437 --> 01:14:40,936
Guess I ought to be
getting home.

969
01:15:31,524 --> 01:15:33,158
Closing hatches now.

970
01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:41,598
Okay, that's all of 'em.

971
01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:42,935
Thanks, Ed.

972
01:15:45,205 --> 01:15:47,437
Ablative hatch closed.

973
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:50,343
Closing the boost
protective cover.

974
01:15:51,444 --> 01:15:52,511
And plugs out.

975
01:15:54,012 --> 01:15:56,014
- Confirm boost hatch sealed.
- Okay.

976
01:16:03,656 --> 01:16:05,390
Ready for oxygen purge.

977
01:16:07,059 --> 01:16:08,426
Okay, we're going to pick up,

978
01:16:08,428 --> 01:16:09,994
but we'll stay
in this configuration

979
01:16:09,996 --> 01:16:12,530
that we're involved
for the rest of the run.

980
01:16:12,532 --> 01:16:14,298
Roger that.

981
01:16:14,300 --> 01:16:16,634
Okay, tell everybody
to be aware that, uh...

982
01:16:16,636 --> 01:16:18,369
Uh, you want to hold down
the chatter?

983
01:16:18,371 --> 01:16:20,138
We're on open mic.

984
01:16:20,140 --> 01:16:22,041
Uh, let's hold the countdown.

985
01:16:26,112 --> 01:16:27,646
Sorry, guys.
We'll get this squared.

986
01:16:27,648 --> 01:16:30,148
Shit, we're gonna
be here all night.

987
01:16:30,150 --> 01:16:31,449
Gus, we didn't get that.

988
01:16:31,451 --> 01:16:32,751
Course you didn't.

989
01:16:35,121 --> 01:16:37,591
Glad you think this is funny.

990
01:16:45,165 --> 01:16:46,664
We finished strong with Gemini,

991
01:16:46,666 --> 01:16:48,734
and we're very, very bullish
on Apollo, Senator.

992
01:16:48,736 --> 01:16:51,737
I should hope so, given the
time we've spent developing it.

993
01:16:51,739 --> 01:16:54,338
Half the country doesn't think
it's worth it anymore.

994
01:16:54,340 --> 01:16:57,042
Uh, well...

995
01:16:57,044 --> 01:17:00,378
we... we learned to fly
only 60 years ago,

996
01:17:00,380 --> 01:17:04,316
so if you consider
the technological developments

997
01:17:04,318 --> 01:17:06,117
in the context of history,
it's really not...

998
01:17:06,119 --> 01:17:08,487
I'm considering it in the
context of taxpayer dollars.

999
01:17:08,489 --> 01:17:10,756
And so are we, Senator.

1000
01:17:10,758 --> 01:17:13,024
Between us,
we're doing some final tests

1001
01:17:13,026 --> 01:17:14,693
on the new
command module today.

1002
01:17:14,695 --> 01:17:17,295
I'm sure Mr. Gilruth will be
happy to tell you about it.

1003
01:17:17,297 --> 01:17:19,164
Let me introduce you to Bob.
Come on.

1004
01:17:19,166 --> 01:17:20,434
Okay.

1005
01:17:24,505 --> 01:17:26,572
I'd like a photo, sir.

1006
01:17:26,574 --> 01:17:29,142
How about you boys?

1007
01:17:40,454 --> 01:17:42,588
Well, I haven't talked yet.
How's this?

1008
01:17:42,590 --> 01:17:45,157
One, two, three, four, five,

1009
01:17:45,159 --> 01:17:47,693
four, three, two, one?

1010
01:17:54,301 --> 01:17:56,068
Uh, we need another minute

1011
01:17:56,070 --> 01:17:57,303
to get it sorted.

1012
01:17:57,305 --> 01:17:59,204
How are we gonna
get to the Moon

1013
01:17:59,206 --> 01:18:01,508
if we can't talk
between three buildings?

1014
01:18:01,510 --> 01:18:03,745
They can't hear a thing
you're saying.

1015
01:18:05,179 --> 01:18:06,546
Jesus Christ.

1016
01:18:06,548 --> 01:18:08,146
Say again?

1017
01:18:08,148 --> 01:18:09,716
I said, how are we gonna
get to the Moon

1018
01:18:09,718 --> 01:18:11,450
if we can't talk between two
or three buildings?

1019
01:18:13,555 --> 01:18:15,555
You tell 'em, Gus.
You tell 'em.

1020
01:18:15,557 --> 01:18:16,756
Mickey Mouse shit.

1021
01:18:16,758 --> 01:18:19,392
I got a surge
in the AC bus two voltage.

1022
01:18:19,394 --> 01:18:20,760
Try resetting the meter.

1023
01:18:20,762 --> 01:18:23,128
You getting this, Gus?

1024
01:18:23,130 --> 01:18:25,097
Rog.

1025
01:18:25,099 --> 01:18:27,333
You picking anything up
on the dials?

1026
01:18:36,778 --> 01:18:38,812
Hey, we got a fire
in the cockpit.

1027
01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:47,255
Hey, we got a bad fire!

1028
01:18:51,226 --> 01:18:52,694
We're burning up in here!

1029
01:19:03,204 --> 01:19:04,871
Mr. Armstrong?

1030
01:19:04,873 --> 01:19:06,840
I have Deke Slayton
on the phone for you.

1031
01:19:06,842 --> 01:19:08,409
Oh.

1032
01:19:08,411 --> 01:19:09,845
Right this way.

1033
01:19:17,687 --> 01:19:19,252
Thank you.

1034
01:19:19,254 --> 01:19:21,255
Well, I'm glad you called.

1035
01:19:21,257 --> 01:19:23,624
I'm not sure if I'm helping
or hurting over here.

1036
01:19:23,626 --> 01:19:25,926
Neil, we had a problem
with the plugs-out test.

1037
01:19:25,928 --> 01:19:28,662
Well, that's why
we have tests, right?

1038
01:19:28,664 --> 01:19:30,531
We'll figure it out.

1039
01:19:30,533 --> 01:19:32,368
There was a fire.

1040
01:19:33,870 --> 01:19:36,904
God, there's no easy way
to say this.

1041
01:19:36,906 --> 01:19:39,908
Ed, Gus and Roger...

1042
01:19:39,910 --> 01:19:41,844
they're gone.

1043
01:19:45,916 --> 01:19:47,715
We think it was a wiring issue.

1044
01:19:47,717 --> 01:19:49,683
A spark in all that oxygen.

1045
01:19:49,685 --> 01:19:51,720
It happened very quickly.

1046
01:19:51,722 --> 01:19:54,722
Now, listen, we need you guys
to head back to the hotel.

1047
01:19:54,724 --> 01:19:56,490
The press is gonna be
all over this.

1048
01:19:56,492 --> 01:19:59,526
Congress is gonna be calling
for investigations. We...

1049
01:19:59,528 --> 01:20:04,264
We just don't want you guys
in the middle of all that.

1050
01:20:04,266 --> 01:20:06,135
Do you understand?

1051
01:20:07,904 --> 01:20:09,573
Yeah.

1052
01:20:11,674 --> 01:20:13,409
All right, then.

1053
01:20:15,812 --> 01:20:17,480
Okay.

1054
01:20:49,413 --> 01:20:50,946
<i>A lot of people forget about</i>

1055
01:20:50,948 --> 01:20:52,246
<i>the influence
that the lunar program has</i>

1056
01:20:52,248 --> 01:20:54,883
<i>on the raising of our
young people in the country.</i>

1057
01:20:54,885 --> 01:20:57,285
I think that if a civilization
doesn't look out,

1058
01:20:57,287 --> 01:20:59,954
if it doesn't try
to expand its horizons,

1059
01:20:59,956 --> 01:21:04,492
then we're not going
to progress as a nation.

1060
01:21:04,494 --> 01:21:06,929
At 10:30 tonight Eastern Time,

1061
01:21:06,931 --> 01:21:09,330
rescue teams began
to remove the bodies

1062
01:21:09,332 --> 01:21:12,600
of the three astronauts
from the charred spacecraft.

1063
01:21:12,602 --> 01:21:14,904
A NASA spokesman
said the dead astronauts

1064
01:21:14,906 --> 01:21:17,405
were left in the ship
for four hours

1065
01:21:17,407 --> 01:21:20,710
to aid the investigation
into the tragedy.

1066
01:21:20,712 --> 01:21:23,745
And according to the
latest information from NASA

1067
01:21:23,747 --> 01:21:25,614
at the Manned Spacecraft Center
in Houston,

1068
01:21:25,616 --> 01:21:27,283
the first Apollo flight,

1069
01:21:27,285 --> 01:21:30,953
which was scheduled for
February the 21st, is now...

1070
01:21:41,364 --> 01:21:43,065
Winds are pretty rough today.

1071
01:21:43,067 --> 01:21:44,667
Keep an eye on your yaw.

1072
01:21:44,669 --> 01:21:46,904
Copy. Correcting.

1073
01:21:55,813 --> 01:21:59,751
1,000 feet.
Switching to lunar mode.

1074
01:22:03,521 --> 01:22:04,655
Final landing approach.

1075
01:22:08,359 --> 01:22:09,628
You're too low. Climb.

1076
01:22:11,996 --> 01:22:14,396
Control is degrading.

1077
01:22:14,398 --> 01:22:16,532
Slow your rates.

1078
01:22:16,534 --> 01:22:17,969
Do you read?

1079
01:22:18,937 --> 01:22:20,371
Neil?

1080
01:23:23,869 --> 01:23:26,103
<i>The vehicle's not safe.</i>

1081
01:23:26,105 --> 01:23:27,839
Well, unfortunately, it's
the best simulation we have.

1082
01:23:27,841 --> 01:23:29,573
And you and the others
are too valuable.

1083
01:23:29,575 --> 01:23:31,108
It's a fly-by-wire system
that's got no backup.

1084
01:23:31,110 --> 01:23:32,643
The ejection seat
is the backup.

1085
01:23:32,645 --> 01:23:34,110
Political fallout
from another accident

1086
01:23:34,112 --> 01:23:35,846
- will compromise our...
- With all due respect, sir,

1087
01:23:35,848 --> 01:23:37,815
it's not my job to worry
about the political fallout.

1088
01:23:37,817 --> 01:23:39,150
The damn thing
could have killed you.

1089
01:23:39,152 --> 01:23:40,917
- Well, it didn't.
- A split second more,

1090
01:23:40,919 --> 01:23:42,954
- and you would not be...
- Well, we need to fail.

1091
01:23:42,956 --> 01:23:45,556
We need to fail down here
so we don't fail up there.

1092
01:23:45,558 --> 01:23:47,424
Okay, Neil, Neil.

1093
01:23:47,426 --> 01:23:50,027
At what cost, huh?

1094
01:23:50,029 --> 01:23:52,196
"At what cost?"

1095
01:23:52,198 --> 01:23:55,533
Well, it's a little bit late

1096
01:23:55,535 --> 01:23:57,936
for that question,
isn't it, sir?

1097
01:24:05,444 --> 01:24:06,844
They raise
their voices, their placards,

1098
01:24:06,846 --> 01:24:08,613
and they march
against the government.

1099
01:24:08,615 --> 01:24:11,515
But some go farther,
burning Selective Service cards

1100
01:24:11,517 --> 01:24:13,017
and obstructing the draft.

1101
01:24:13,019 --> 01:24:14,819
Most dissenters
confine themselves

1102
01:24:14,821 --> 01:24:16,988
to this kind
of protest activity.

1103
01:24:16,990 --> 01:24:18,556
Hey, hey! LBJ!

1104
01:24:18,558 --> 01:24:20,125
How many kids
did you kill today?

1105
01:24:20,127 --> 01:24:22,693
Hey, hey! LBJ!

1106
01:24:22,695 --> 01:24:24,864
How many kids
did you kill today?

1107
01:24:28,902 --> 01:24:30,570
Pat?

1108
01:24:44,251 --> 01:24:46,085
Pat.

1109
01:24:47,654 --> 01:24:49,154
You okay?

1110
01:24:49,156 --> 01:24:50,858
Yes.

1111
01:25:08,809 --> 01:25:10,210
Why don't we go inside?

1112
01:25:37,771 --> 01:25:39,473
Hi.

1113
01:25:44,245 --> 01:25:46,111
Are you okay? Jesus.

1114
01:25:46,113 --> 01:25:47,779
Oh, I'm fine.

1115
01:25:47,781 --> 01:25:49,818
- Look at your face.
- Excuse me.

1116
01:25:54,122 --> 01:25:55,587
Dad, want to come play?

1117
01:25:55,589 --> 01:25:57,090
- Ricky.
- Uh...

1118
01:25:57,092 --> 01:25:59,258
Boys, go on. Go on.

1119
01:25:59,260 --> 01:26:01,761
I know, I know, I know.
Dad's fine.

1120
01:26:01,763 --> 01:26:03,096
Go on. Go back out.

1121
01:26:03,098 --> 01:26:05,098
Go back, go back.

1122
01:26:05,100 --> 01:26:08,201
Mark, not here.

1123
01:26:08,203 --> 01:26:10,802
What happened?

1124
01:26:10,804 --> 01:26:12,140
Um...

1125
01:26:15,311 --> 01:26:16,843
- I, uh...
- Jesus.

1126
01:26:16,845 --> 01:26:19,812
I just remembered I left
something at the office.

1127
01:26:33,962 --> 01:26:35,762
<i>You've lately taken</i>

1128
01:26:35,764 --> 01:26:38,032
<i>a couple of swipes
at the space program.</i>

1129
01:26:38,034 --> 01:26:40,800
I think it would be interesting
to, uh, talk more

1130
01:26:40,802 --> 01:26:42,269
about whether this
is the proper thing

1131
01:26:42,271 --> 01:26:44,004
to do with public treasury.

1132
01:26:44,006 --> 01:26:45,805
Is the sort of dreams
I would have,

1133
01:26:45,807 --> 01:26:47,874
would be a habitable
New York City, for instance.

1134
01:26:47,876 --> 01:26:49,776
It would seem to me
that that would be

1135
01:26:49,778 --> 01:26:51,245
a reasonable thing to do.

1136
01:26:51,247 --> 01:26:52,712
<i>Wh-What has been the reaction</i>

1137
01:26:52,714 --> 01:26:54,013
<i>of your friends in this?</i>

1138
01:26:54,015 --> 01:26:56,050
<i>Well, they mostly think
that it's ridiculous</i>

1139
01:26:56,052 --> 01:26:57,950
that we're spending
so much money

1140
01:26:57,952 --> 01:27:00,154
to go somewhere where
we don't know anything about.

1141
01:27:00,156 --> 01:27:02,089
And that the money
could be used

1142
01:27:02,091 --> 01:27:03,890
for a lot more helpful things.

1143
01:27:05,794 --> 01:27:09,229
Power!

1144
01:27:09,231 --> 01:27:11,664

- Power to the people!

1162
01:27:54,110 --> 01:27:56,244
Congress wouldn't fund us
to come in second.

1163
01:27:56,246 --> 01:27:59,113
Why else would NASA
be sending a rocket

1164
01:27:59,115 --> 01:28:01,883
that's had one issue
after another to the Moon?

1165
01:28:01,885 --> 01:28:04,084
Thanks for the insight, Buzz.

1166
01:28:06,389 --> 01:28:10,023
Always a pleasure with you.

1167
01:28:10,025 --> 01:28:12,060
Oh, it doesn't matter.
He's not in the lunar lottery.

1168
01:28:12,062 --> 01:28:14,129
And you are?

1169
01:28:14,131 --> 01:28:16,130
Well, the only guys
they let on the LLTV

1170
01:28:16,132 --> 01:28:18,765
since Neil's accident
are ones that might land.

1171
01:28:18,767 --> 01:28:21,136
So you think you're going
to the Moon?

1172
01:28:21,138 --> 01:28:24,873
Well, it's been up for grabs
since Gus died.

1173
01:28:24,875 --> 01:28:28,109
I'm just saying
what you're thinking.

1174
01:28:32,249 --> 01:28:34,351
Well, maybe you shouldn't.

1175
01:28:39,190 --> 01:28:41,289
Apollo 8 clearing the VAB

1176
01:28:41,291 --> 01:28:44,092
- and headed for the launchpad.
- <i>Yeah!</i>

1177
01:28:49,333 --> 01:28:51,833
Hell of a rocket.

1178
01:28:51,835 --> 01:28:54,035
Yeah.

1179
01:28:54,037 --> 01:28:57,439
Everything stays on track,
11's gonna be the landing.

1180
01:28:57,441 --> 01:29:00,041
I talked to Bob.
Everyone's in agreement.

1181
01:29:00,043 --> 01:29:02,146
We'd like you to command.

1182
01:29:08,853 --> 01:29:10,084
Okay.

1183
01:29:15,126 --> 01:29:17,058
<i>I can see a helicopter</i>

1184
01:29:17,060 --> 01:29:18,394
<i>vectoring that way.</i>

1185
01:29:18,396 --> 01:29:19,929
<i>It looks like a red dot</i>

1186
01:29:19,931 --> 01:29:21,829
with a long, long tail,
a long plume.

1187
01:29:21,831 --> 01:29:23,765
That's got to be
the spacecraft.

1188
01:29:23,767 --> 01:29:26,235
That has to be
Apollo 10 reentering.

1189
01:29:26,237 --> 01:29:29,104
And so the flight of Apollo 10

1190
01:29:29,106 --> 01:29:33,209
has performed the major
function of its mission.

1191
01:29:33,211 --> 01:29:36,011
It has proved, through
these daring three astronauts,

1192
01:29:36,013 --> 01:29:38,981
that, uh, all of the systems
work properly

1193
01:29:38,983 --> 01:29:41,984
and that there should be
no reason why man cannot,

1194
01:29:41,986 --> 01:29:44,186
perhaps as early as July,

1195
01:29:44,188 --> 01:29:47,556
land on that picked spot
on the Moon's equator.

1196
01:29:47,558 --> 01:29:49,925
These are sailors of the sky,

1197
01:29:49,927 --> 01:29:52,027
and what, uh,
we've seen and heard today

1198
01:29:52,029 --> 01:29:55,931
make the great ocean voyages
of the earthbound

1199
01:29:55,933 --> 01:29:59,134
seem... well,
earthbound indeed.

1200
01:29:59,136 --> 01:30:02,037
For as the poet wrote,
the crew of Apollo 10

1201
01:30:02,039 --> 01:30:05,207
has "slipped
the surly bonds of Earth"

1202
01:30:05,209 --> 01:30:07,277
and carried us over
into tomorrow.

1203
01:30:07,279 --> 01:30:09,045
In the past few hours,

1204
01:30:09,047 --> 01:30:11,847
man has come closer to the Moon
than ever in his history.

1205
01:30:11,849 --> 01:30:13,849
There were those
terrifying moments when...

1206
01:30:13,851 --> 01:30:15,818
Mom, what's wrong?

1207
01:30:15,820 --> 01:30:18,521
- Hmm?
- What's wrong?

1208
01:30:18,523 --> 01:30:20,459
Nothing, honey.

1209
01:30:21,892 --> 01:30:23,993
Your dad's going to the Moon.

1210
01:30:23,995 --> 01:30:25,364
Okay.

1211
01:30:27,099 --> 01:30:29,566
Can I go outside?

1212
01:30:29,568 --> 01:30:31,401
Sure.

1213
01:30:36,508 --> 01:30:38,375
Uh, we're here today

1214
01:30:38,377 --> 01:30:40,477
to talk about
the forthcoming flight.

1215
01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:44,247
But we're able to talk
about it because of, uh...

1216
01:30:44,249 --> 01:30:46,882
previous flights.

1217
01:30:46,884 --> 01:30:49,219
Every flight
took on new objectives

1218
01:30:49,221 --> 01:30:53,556
and left us with very few
additions to be completed.

1219
01:30:53,558 --> 01:30:55,859
We're very grateful to those
people who made it possible

1220
01:30:55,861 --> 01:30:57,129
for us to be here today.

1221
01:30:58,563 --> 01:31:00,230
All right,
we'll take some questions now.

1222
01:31:00,232 --> 01:31:02,233
Jim.

1223
01:31:02,235 --> 01:31:05,035
Neil, when you learned you were
going to command this flight,

1224
01:31:05,037 --> 01:31:07,571
were you surprised?
Overjoyed?

1225
01:31:07,573 --> 01:31:10,340
- I was pleased.
- Okay, but how would you compare

1226
01:31:10,342 --> 01:31:12,042
this feeling
to winning an automobile

1227
01:31:12,044 --> 01:31:13,812
or being selected
as an astronaut?

1228
01:31:16,114 --> 01:31:18,050
I was pleased.

1229
01:31:19,352 --> 01:31:23,153
- Brian.
- Neil, if it does turn out,

1230
01:31:23,155 --> 01:31:24,555
you'll go down in history.

1231
01:31:24,557 --> 01:31:26,457
What kind of thoughts
do you have about that

1232
01:31:26,459 --> 01:31:28,091
when the thought hits you, uh,

1233
01:31:28,093 --> 01:31:29,627
"Gosh, suppose
that flight's successful..."

1234
01:31:29,629 --> 01:31:31,362
We're planning on that flight
being successful.

1235
01:31:31,364 --> 01:31:33,530
Uh, I-I just meant,

1236
01:31:33,532 --> 01:31:36,402
how you feel about...
being a part of history.

1237
01:31:37,637 --> 01:31:40,270
I think I can shed
some light here.

1238
01:31:40,272 --> 01:31:43,207
It's a responsibility...

1239
01:31:43,209 --> 01:31:46,242
but it's exciting
to be the first.

1240
01:31:46,244 --> 01:31:49,180
Even my wife is excited.

1241
01:31:49,182 --> 01:31:52,416
She keeps slipping....
jewelry into my PPK.

1242
01:31:52,418 --> 01:31:54,618
You're planning on taking some of her jewelry

1243
01:31:54,620 --> 01:31:56,354
- to the Moon, Buzz?
- Sure.

1244
01:31:56,356 --> 01:31:58,088
Wh-What fella wouldn't want

1245
01:31:58,090 --> 01:32:00,091
to give his wife
bragging rights?

1246
01:32:00,093 --> 01:32:04,228
Neil, will you take anything?

1247
01:32:04,230 --> 01:32:07,164
Uh, if I had a choice,
I'd take more fuel.

1248
01:32:07,166 --> 01:32:10,069
All right, next question.

1249
01:32:21,248 --> 01:32:25,015
I thought you
were gonna talk to the boys.

1250
01:32:25,017 --> 01:32:28,419
What did you want me to say?

1251
01:32:28,421 --> 01:32:30,389
What do you want to say?

1252
01:32:30,391 --> 01:32:32,391
You're the one
that's going away.

1253
01:32:32,393 --> 01:32:34,628
Well, it's too late now.
They're asleep.

1254
01:32:37,431 --> 01:32:39,432
No, they're not, Neil.

1255
01:32:40,534 --> 01:32:42,534
You know they're not.

1256
01:32:42,536 --> 01:32:45,737
Why can't you talk to them?

1257
01:32:45,739 --> 01:32:47,674
What are you doing?

1258
01:32:49,476 --> 01:32:52,511
Uh... I'm packing.

1259
01:32:52,513 --> 01:32:54,579
No.

1260
01:32:54,581 --> 01:32:57,684
You're just killing time
until you can get in the car.

1261
01:33:03,557 --> 01:33:05,659
- Okay.
- Okay.

1262
01:33:09,330 --> 01:33:12,232
Neil, I need you
to talk to the boys.

1263
01:33:13,467 --> 01:33:16,134
Can you hear me?

1264
01:33:16,136 --> 01:33:19,337
I need you to talk to the boys.
What are you doing?

1265
01:33:19,339 --> 01:33:20,740
Stop.

1266
01:33:20,742 --> 01:33:22,774
- I'm going to work.
- Well, just stop it.

1267
01:33:22,776 --> 01:33:25,680
Just stop... just stop packing!

1268
01:33:39,326 --> 01:33:42,227
What are the chances
you're not coming back?

1269
01:33:42,229 --> 01:33:43,796
Hmm? What are the chances

1270
01:33:43,798 --> 01:33:46,331
this is the last time
the boys are gonna see you?

1271
01:33:46,333 --> 01:33:48,468
Well, I can't give you
an exact number.

1272
01:33:48,470 --> 01:33:50,738
I don't want
a fucking number, Neil!

1273
01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:55,508
It's not zero, is it?

1274
01:33:55,510 --> 01:33:57,111
Is it?

1275
01:33:58,680 --> 01:33:59,779
No.

1276
01:33:59,781 --> 01:34:02,548
No. It's not.

1277
01:34:02,550 --> 01:34:05,551
Pat doesn't have a husband.

1278
01:34:05,553 --> 01:34:09,190
Those kids, they don't
have a father anymore.

1279
01:34:11,226 --> 01:34:13,428
Do you understand
what that means?

1280
01:34:15,230 --> 01:34:19,499
What are the chances
that's gonna be Ricky and Mark?

1281
01:34:19,501 --> 01:34:22,067
And I... I can't tell them

1282
01:34:22,069 --> 01:34:24,504
that their dad spent
the last few minutes

1283
01:34:24,506 --> 01:34:26,442
packing his briefcase!

1284
01:34:28,743 --> 01:34:31,277
You're gonna sit 'em down,
both of them,

1285
01:34:31,279 --> 01:34:33,446
and you're gonna prepare them
for the fact

1286
01:34:33,448 --> 01:34:35,716
that you might not
ever come home.

1287
01:34:35,718 --> 01:34:37,417
You're doing that.

1288
01:34:37,419 --> 01:34:39,219
You.

1289
01:34:39,221 --> 01:34:40,655
Not me.

1290
01:34:42,290 --> 01:34:43,759
I'm done.

1291
01:34:49,732 --> 01:34:53,334
So you better start thinking
about what you're gonna say.

1292
01:35:14,624 --> 01:35:16,890
Jimmy asked
what you're gonna say

1293
01:35:16,892 --> 01:35:19,194
when you get onto the Moon.

1294
01:35:24,466 --> 01:35:27,668
Well, we're not sure
we're gonna get onto the Moon.

1295
01:35:27,670 --> 01:35:30,838
Uh... a lot of things
have to go right

1296
01:35:30,840 --> 01:35:33,173
before that happens.

1297
01:35:33,175 --> 01:35:36,310
How long will you be gone?

1298
01:35:36,312 --> 01:35:38,813
Um... well,
we launch in ten days,

1299
01:35:38,815 --> 01:35:41,783
we'll be up for eight, and then
about a month in quarantine.

1300
01:35:41,785 --> 01:35:43,785
What's quarantine?

1301
01:35:43,787 --> 01:35:46,823
We'll... be in isolation.

1302
01:35:49,626 --> 01:35:52,760
Uh, to protect
in case we, uh...

1303
01:35:52,762 --> 01:35:55,897
carry any diseases
from the lunar surface

1304
01:35:55,899 --> 01:35:58,465
or... something of that nature.

1305
01:35:58,467 --> 01:36:00,804
It's not likely,
but it's a precaution.

1306
01:36:02,472 --> 01:36:05,875
So you won't be here
for my swim meet?

1307
01:36:15,752 --> 01:36:17,320
No.

1308
01:36:18,888 --> 01:36:20,691
Sorry.

1309
01:36:31,301 --> 01:36:33,770
Does anyone have
any other questions?

1310
01:36:36,539 --> 01:36:38,941
Do you think
you're coming back?

1311
01:36:38,943 --> 01:36:41,944
We have real confidence
in the mission.

1312
01:36:41,946 --> 01:36:44,413
And, uh, there are some risks,

1313
01:36:44,415 --> 01:36:47,415
but we have every intention
of coming back.

1314
01:36:47,417 --> 01:36:50,253
But you might not.

1315
01:37:03,767 --> 01:37:05,703
That's right.

1316
01:37:14,712 --> 01:37:16,179
Okay.

1317
01:37:17,615 --> 01:37:19,550
Okay. Time for bed.

01:45:37,788 --> 01:45:40,222
Okay, we're operate 59:59.

1351
01:45:55,140 --> 01:45:57,272
Apollo 11, we track your speed

1352
01:45:57,274 --> 01:46:00,210
increasing
to 36,000 feet per second.

1353
01:46:00,212 --> 01:46:02,844
You are now leaving
Earth orbit.

1354
01:46:02,846 --> 01:46:04,316
Apollo 11. Roger.

1355
01:46:13,425 --> 01:46:14,890
We have cutoff.

1356
01:46:14,892 --> 01:46:16,792
Uh, roger, 11.

1357
01:46:16,794 --> 01:46:19,128
Well, it certainly looks like
you're well on your way now.

1358
01:46:19,130 --> 01:46:21,130
Okay, Houston,
we're about to SEP.

1359
01:46:21,132 --> 01:46:22,532
Mike, you got it?

1360
01:46:22,534 --> 01:46:24,535
It's your ship now.

1361
01:46:59,372 --> 01:47:02,905
And you can start PTC
at your convenience.

1362
01:47:02,907 --> 01:47:05,110
All right, thank you, Houston.

1363
01:47:12,952 --> 01:47:14,452
That smells funny.

1364
01:47:14,454 --> 01:47:16,955
Like, uh, charred
electrical insulation.

1365
01:47:18,057 --> 01:47:20,259
Might just be rocket fumes.

1366
01:47:22,194 --> 01:47:24,530
- Did you bring any music?
- No.

1367
01:47:26,132 --> 01:47:27,500
Here, Buzz.

1368
01:47:48,254 --> 01:47:50,255
Hey, Houston,
are you hearing this?

1369
01:49:01,696 --> 01:49:04,329
Apollo 11,
now entering lunar orbit.

1370
01:49:04,331 --> 01:49:06,265
Your roll should give you
a good view

1371
01:49:06,267 --> 01:49:08,566
in about two minutes. Over.

1372
01:49:08,568 --> 01:49:11,269
When you have a
free minute, could you give us

1373
01:49:11,271 --> 01:49:14,740
your onboard readout
of N2 tank Bravo, please?

1374
01:49:14,742 --> 01:49:17,510
Nitrogen tank Bravo are showing

1375
01:49:17,512 --> 01:49:19,712
19-60, something like that.

1376
01:49:19,714 --> 01:49:21,516
Roger.

1377
01:50:11,165 --> 01:50:13,435
Would you look at that.

1378
01:50:38,227 --> 01:50:39,593
This is a damn
three-ring circus.

1379
01:50:39,595 --> 01:50:41,561
I got a fuel cell purge
in progress,

1380
01:50:41,563 --> 01:50:43,330
I'm watching
an auto maneuver and...

1381
01:50:43,332 --> 01:50:44,831
Jesus Christ.

1382
01:50:44,833 --> 01:50:47,067
Normal, normal.

1383
01:50:47,069 --> 01:50:49,804
Houston, stand by
for auto alarm.

1384
01:50:49,806 --> 01:50:51,838
Neil, the, uh...
the voice tape recorder,

1385
01:50:51,840 --> 01:50:53,273
- you know where that is?
- I don't know.

1386
01:50:53,275 --> 01:50:54,574
All this food
and stuff up here,

1387
01:50:54,576 --> 01:50:56,743
- you want any of that?
- No.

1388
01:50:56,745 --> 01:50:59,379
All right.
What about this chewing gum?

1389
01:50:59,381 --> 01:51:01,248
You want any of that?

1390
01:51:01,250 --> 01:51:02,718
Mike.

1391
01:51:06,321 --> 01:51:08,190
Come back, will you?

1392
01:51:09,625 --> 01:51:12,460
Apollo 11, Houston.

1393
01:51:12,462 --> 01:51:14,628
Let us know when
you've entered the LEM,

1394
01:51:14,630 --> 01:51:16,565
closed up the hatch. Over.

1395
01:51:29,244 --> 01:51:31,112
<i>Eagle,</i> this is, uh, Houston.

1396
01:51:31,114 --> 01:51:32,780
We see the optics
zero switch on.

1397
01:51:32,782 --> 01:51:35,516
Uh, before you take some marks,
uh, don't forget

1398
01:51:35,518 --> 01:51:38,287
to cycle it back off and on,
and then on. Over.

1399
01:51:44,661 --> 01:51:46,761
<i>Eagle,</i> Houston,
could you give us a hack

1400
01:51:46,763 --> 01:51:49,397
on, uh, the time
that you switched to LEM power

1401
01:51:49,399 --> 01:51:53,703
and also verify that
we're on Glycol Pump One. Over.

1402
01:51:55,305 --> 01:51:57,738
This is <i>Eagle.</i>
We're on Pump One.

1403
01:51:57,740 --> 01:51:59,774
- Roger.
- <i>Eagle, Columbia.</i>

1404
01:51:59,776 --> 01:52:01,877
All 12 docking latches
are cocked.

1405
01:52:01,879 --> 01:52:04,478
- I'm ready to button up the hatch.
- Roger.

1406
01:52:04,480 --> 01:52:06,748
I'm gonna start a maneuver now

1407
01:52:06,750 --> 01:52:08,685
to our undocking attitude.

1408
01:52:09,752 --> 01:52:11,387
Okay.

1409
01:52:33,543 --> 01:52:35,944
How about using
as an undocking time

1410
01:52:35,946 --> 01:52:38,847
a hundred hours and 12 minutes?

1411
01:52:38,849 --> 01:52:41,883
- What have you got for AOS?
- I have a hundred hours

1412
01:52:41,885 --> 01:52:44,485
and 16 minutes.

1413
01:52:44,487 --> 01:52:45,821
<i>Eagle,</i>

1414
01:52:45,823 --> 01:52:47,756
keep an eye on
your descent engine fuel.

1415
01:52:47,758 --> 01:52:51,258
Continuous burn time is limited
to 910 seconds.

1416
01:52:51,260 --> 01:52:54,596
Over.

1417
01:52:54,598 --> 01:52:57,701
Apollo 11, Houston.
We are go for undocking. Over.

1418
01:53:09,947 --> 01:53:12,884
15 seconds.

1419
01:53:18,690 --> 01:53:21,223
Okay, there you go.

1420
01:53:46,584 --> 01:53:49,018
<i>Eagle,</i> Houston.
We see you on the steerable.

1421
01:53:49,020 --> 01:53:51,319
- Over.
- The <i>Eagle</i> is undocked.

1422
01:53:51,321 --> 01:53:53,255
Roger. How does it look?

1423
01:53:53,257 --> 01:53:54,924
The <i>Eagle</i> has wings.

1424
01:54:29,829 --> 01:54:31,764
It just won't stay.

1425
01:54:33,798 --> 01:54:35,899
<i>Eagle,</i> report status. Over.

1426
01:54:35,901 --> 01:54:37,568
We'll have to tell them
about that.

1427
01:54:37,570 --> 01:54:40,470
Let's prep for descent.

1428
01:54:40,472 --> 01:54:41,772
<i>Eagle,</i> Houston.

1429
01:54:41,774 --> 01:54:43,474
You're a go
for powered descent.

1430
01:54:43,476 --> 01:54:45,675
Roger. Read you.

1431
01:54:50,082 --> 01:54:52,918
Altitude light's on.
We don't have radar data.

1432
01:54:58,557 --> 01:55:00,760
Let's proceed.

1433
01:55:02,360 --> 01:55:03,927
Proceed.

1434
01:55:03,929 --> 01:55:05,696
One.

1435
01:55:05,698 --> 01:55:07,397
Zero.

1436
01:55:07,399 --> 01:55:08,631
Ignition.

1437
01:55:17,943 --> 01:55:20,978
Program alarm.

1438
01:55:20,980 --> 01:55:24,681
- What's a 1202 alarm?
- I don't know.

1439
01:55:24,683 --> 01:55:28,085
Houston, give us a reading
on the 1202 program alarm.

1440
01:55:28,087 --> 01:55:30,354
Roger, we got you.
We're a go on that alarm.

1441
01:55:36,595 --> 01:55:37,962
Same alarm.

1442
01:55:37,964 --> 01:55:39,963
Roger.
We're a go on that alarm.

1443
01:56:05,025 --> 01:56:08,960
- Okay, 3,000 at 70.
- Roger. Understand.

1444
01:56:08,962 --> 01:56:11,129
Program alarm. 1201.

1445
01:56:11,131 --> 01:56:13,600
Roger. 1201 alarm.

1446
01:56:17,504 --> 01:56:20,372
Same type. We're a go.

1447
01:56:52,472 --> 01:56:54,407
Pretty rocky area.

1448
01:56:57,711 --> 01:57:00,546
Those boulders are
as big as cars.

1449
01:57:00,548 --> 01:57:01,916
We can't land there.

1450
01:57:09,857 --> 01:57:11,792
Go into manual.

1451
01:57:23,004 --> 01:57:25,205
540 feet down to 30.

1452
01:57:25,207 --> 01:57:27,505
Watch your fuel.

1453
01:57:27,507 --> 01:57:29,942
330.

1454
01:57:29,944 --> 01:57:31,946
300 feet,
down three and a half.

1455
01:57:37,185 --> 01:57:38,451
Fuel's at eight percent.

1456
01:57:42,523 --> 01:57:45,190
Radar's lost track of the surface again.

1457
01:57:45,192 --> 01:57:48,627
160 feet, six and a half down.

1458
01:57:48,629 --> 01:57:51,432
Five and a half down,
nine forward.

1459
01:57:54,870 --> 01:57:58,570
Low level. Low level.

1460
01:57:58,572 --> 01:57:59,839
120 feet.

1461
01:57:59,841 --> 01:58:02,841
Five percent fuel remaining.

1462
01:58:02,843 --> 01:58:05,812
Quantity light.

1463
01:58:05,814 --> 01:58:07,614
94 seconds to bingo.

1464
01:58:07,616 --> 01:58:09,784
114's a mandatory abort.

1465
01:58:14,655 --> 01:58:17,190
Down a half. Six forward.

1466
01:58:17,192 --> 01:58:19,059
Stand by for 60. Roger.

1467
01:58:19,061 --> 01:58:22,028
60 seconds.

1468
01:58:22,030 --> 01:58:23,632
40 feet, down two and a half.

1469
01:58:29,705 --> 01:58:31,071
Stand by for 30.

1470
01:58:31,073 --> 01:58:32,705
- 30 seconds.
- Forward.

1471
01:58:36,212 --> 01:58:38,479
20 feet, down a half.

1472
01:58:44,886 --> 01:58:46,252
Faint shadow.
Drifting forward,

1473
01:58:46,254 --> 01:58:48,091
just a little bit.

1474
01:59:19,322 --> 01:59:21,355
Contact light.

1475
01:59:22,959 --> 01:59:24,894
Shutdown.

1476
01:59:35,938 --> 01:59:38,107
We copy you down, <i>Eagle.</i>

1477
01:59:42,011 --> 01:59:44,145
Houston...

1478
01:59:44,147 --> 01:59:46,082
Tranquility Base here.

1479
01:59:48,151 --> 01:59:50,683
The <i>Eagle</i> has landed.

1480
01:59:50,685 --> 01:59:52,620
Roger, Tranq... Tranquility.

1481
01:59:52,622 --> 01:59:53,954
We copy you on the ground.

1482
01:59:53,956 --> 01:59:56,190
You got a bunch of guys
about to turn blue.

1483
01:59:56,192 --> 01:59:58,161
We're breathing again.
Thanks a lot.

1484
02:00:00,297 --> 02:00:02,098
Thank you.

1485
02:00:05,235 --> 02:00:07,637
Very smooth touchdown.

1486
02:01:55,347 --> 02:01:57,079
Okay, Neil,

1487
02:01:57,081 --> 02:02:00,082
we can see you
coming down the ladder now.

1488
02:02:10,061 --> 02:02:11,928
Okay, I just checked.

1489
02:02:11,930 --> 02:02:16,201
Uh, coming back up to that
first step, Buzz, it's, uh...

1490
02:02:18,270 --> 02:02:20,336
The strut
hasn't collapsed too far,

1491
02:02:20,338 --> 02:02:22,506
but, uh, it's adequate
to get back up.

1492
02:02:22,508 --> 02:02:24,074
Roger. We copy.

1493
02:02:24,076 --> 02:02:26,411
Takes a pretty good
little jump.

1494
02:02:43,195 --> 02:02:45,495
Uh, Buzz, this is Houston.

1495
02:02:45,497 --> 02:02:49,366
F-two, one 160th second
for shadow photography

1496
02:02:49,368 --> 02:02:51,370
on the sequence camera.

1497
02:02:52,805 --> 02:02:54,240
Okay.

1498
02:02:57,443 --> 02:03:00,310
I'm, uh,
at the foot of the ladder.

1499
02:03:00,312 --> 02:03:03,513
The LEM footpads
are only, uh...

1500
02:03:03,515 --> 02:03:06,451
uh, depressed in the surface

1501
02:03:06,453 --> 02:03:09,386
about, uh, one or two inches.

1502
02:03:09,388 --> 02:03:14,157
Although the surface
appears to be, uh,

1503
02:03:14,159 --> 02:03:17,027
very, very fine-grained
as you get close to it.

1504
02:03:17,029 --> 02:03:20,497
It's almost like a powder
down there.

1505
02:03:20,499 --> 02:03:22,301
Uh, very fine.

1506
02:03:31,344 --> 02:03:34,213
I'm gonna step off the LEM now.

1507
02:03:45,124 --> 02:03:47,793
That's one small step
for man...

1508
02:03:50,029 --> 02:03:53,199
...one giant leap for mankind.

1509
02:05:23,190 --> 02:05:26,057
Okay, you ready
for me to come out?

1510
02:08:46,496 --> 02:08:49,664
Five, four, three,

1511
02:08:49,666 --> 02:08:51,566
two, one.

1512
02:08:51,568 --> 02:08:52,902
Ignition.

1513
02:09:01,745 --> 02:09:03,779
<i>...I suppose they can</i>

1514
02:09:03,781 --> 02:09:05,948
<i>never really, uh,
describe to us.</i>

1515
02:09:05,950 --> 02:09:07,382
<i>So we'll never know.</i>

1516
02:09:07,384 --> 02:09:10,553
<i>And it may not be
a beauty that one can pass on</i>

1517
02:09:10,555 --> 02:09:12,355
<i>to future beholders, either.</i>

1518
02:09:12,357 --> 02:09:15,190
<i>These first men on the Moon
have seen something</i>

1519
02:09:15,192 --> 02:09:18,327
<i>that men who follow
will have missed.</i>

1520
02:09:18,329 --> 02:09:20,462
<i>They've peered
into another life</i>

1521
02:09:20,464 --> 02:09:22,965
<i>that, uh, we can't follow.</i>

1522
02:09:22,967 --> 02:09:25,200
<i>Bob Simon at Trafalgar Square,</i>

1523
02:09:25,202 --> 02:09:26,902
<i>where he joined the thousands</i>

1524
02:09:26,904 --> 02:09:29,305
<i>who watched an immense
television screen</i>

1525
02:09:29,307 --> 02:09:31,539
<i>as the Apollo touched down
on the Moon.</i>

1526
02:09:31,541 --> 02:09:33,643
<i>The average
Romanian thinks of Apollo 11</i>

1527
02:09:33,645 --> 02:09:35,946
<i>a little bit
as his own personal adventure.</i>

1528
02:09:35,948 --> 02:09:38,380
<i>It's been estimated
that the audience</i>

1529
02:09:38,382 --> 02:09:40,316
<i>was up in the hundreds
of millions.</i>

1530
02:09:40,318 --> 02:09:43,786
<i>Perhaps 400 million persons
or so watching this broadcast.</i>

1531
02:09:43,788 --> 02:09:45,521
<i>Countless millions more</i>

1532
02:09:45,523 --> 02:09:47,757
<i>listened on the radio
to the voices from the Moon.</i>

1533
02:09:47,759 --> 02:09:50,326
<i>Never before had so many people</i>

1534
02:09:50,328 --> 02:09:52,495
<i>been attuned to one event
at one time.</i>

1535
02:09:54,499 --> 02:09:56,899
<i>...is on the Moon. Of course...</i>

1536
02:09:56,901 --> 02:09:58,668
<i>...feats of all time.</i>

1537
02:09:58,670 --> 02:10:00,671
<i>Does it amaze you
that it's taken place?</i>

1538
02:10:00,673 --> 02:10:02,538
<i>It not only amazes me,
but I'm certain</i>

1539
02:10:02,540 --> 02:10:03,907
<i>that it amazes everybody
in this country.</i>

1540
02:10:03,909 --> 02:10:06,009
<i>What do you think of it?</i>

1541
02:10:06,011 --> 02:10:07,710
<i>Well, the Moon, I hope...</i>

1542
02:10:07,712 --> 02:10:09,378
<i>that sometime everybody
will go there.</i>

1543
02:10:09,380 --> 02:10:10,647
- <i>Want to go yourself?</i>
- <i>Oh, yeah.</i>

1544
02:10:10,649 --> 02:10:12,015
<i>I wish I can go right now.</i>

1545
02:10:12,017 --> 02:10:14,483
<i>I think this
is a very important day.</i>

1546
02:10:14,485 --> 02:10:17,754
<i>It's a historical day for...
and the whole universe</i>

1547
02:10:17,756 --> 02:10:19,822
is concerned about this,
the landing on the Moon.

1548
02:10:19,824 --> 02:10:21,624
And as a French woman,

1549
02:10:21,626 --> 02:10:23,860
- how do you think about it?
- Oh, I think it's wonderful.

1550
02:10:23,862 --> 02:10:26,429
I always trusted America,
and I knew they couldn't fail.

1551
02:10:26,431 --> 02:10:27,898
And in Washington,

1552
02:10:27,900 --> 02:10:30,033
an anonymous citizen
placed a small bouquet

1553
02:10:30,035 --> 02:10:33,003
on the grave of John F. Kennedy
with a note:

1554
02:10:33,005 --> 02:10:36,006
"Mr. President,
the <i>Eagle</i> has landed."

1555
02:10:36,008 --> 02:10:40,343
And indeed on this day, as we
mark the astronauts' return,

1556
02:10:40,345 --> 02:10:42,679
it's hard not to think back
upon that speech

1557
02:10:42,681 --> 02:10:45,849
our 35th president gave
just seven short years ago.

1558
02:10:45,851 --> 02:10:48,685
If this capsule
history of our progress

1559
02:10:48,687 --> 02:10:51,755
teaches us anything,
it is that man,

1560
02:10:51,757 --> 02:10:53,657
in his quest for knowledge
and progress,

1561
02:10:53,659 --> 02:10:57,027
is determined
and cannot be deterred.

1562
02:10:57,029 --> 02:10:59,563
But why, some say, the Moon?

1563
02:10:59,565 --> 02:11:02,733
Why choose this as our goal?

1564
02:11:02,735 --> 02:11:06,904
And they may well ask,
why climb the highest mountain?

1565
02:11:06,906 --> 02:11:10,842
Why, 35 years ago,
fly the Atlantic?

1566
02:11:10,844 --> 02:11:13,376
Why does Rice play Texas?

1567
02:11:13,378 --> 02:11:15,679
We choose to go to the Moon.

1568
02:11:15,681 --> 02:11:20,350
We choose to go to the Moon...

1569
02:11:20,352 --> 02:11:23,020
We choose to go to the Moon
in this decade

1570
02:11:23,022 --> 02:11:24,822
and do the other things,

1571
02:11:24,824 --> 02:11:28,760
not because they are easy,
but because they are hard.

1572
02:11:32,731 --> 02:11:34,968
How do you feel?

1573
02:11:36,903 --> 02:11:38,337
How happy are you?

1574
02:11:39,706 --> 02:11:41,506
Have you spoken
with your husband?

1575
02:11:41,508 --> 02:11:43,808
Would your sons like to be
astronauts like him?

1576
02:11:43,810 --> 02:11:45,042
Mrs. Armstrong.

1577
02:11:45,044 --> 02:11:46,978
Ha-Have all your prayers
been answered?

1578
02:11:46,980 --> 02:11:48,579
Yes, yes, they have.

1579
02:11:48,581 --> 02:11:50,982
How would you describe
the flight?

1580
