1
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,788
Okay, are there any changes
to the schedule?

2
00:02:01,821 --> 00:02:03,356
Arnie?

3
00:02:03,423 --> 00:02:07,660
Line item 7,
which is shown for all day,

4
00:02:07,694 --> 00:02:09,863
all of first shift Tuesday.

5
00:02:09,929 --> 00:02:16,200
The tank pressurization test
will not start until 13:00.

6
00:02:16,690 --> 00:02:18,271
When do you want to run
the leak check?

7
00:02:18,304 --> 00:02:20,273
First shift Tuesday.

8
00:02:20,306 --> 00:02:23,276
Arnie, you gonna extend
that time out for five hours

9
00:02:23,309 --> 00:02:26,460
by cutting it off in
the front end of that...

10
00:02:26,112 --> 00:02:29,849
LH2 storage tank pressurization?

11
00:02:29,916 --> 00:02:30,884
Negative.

12
00:03:07,687 --> 00:03:10,423
It's 3 hours and 32 minutes

13
00:03:10,490 --> 00:03:14,160
until man begins the greatest
adventure in his history.

14
00:03:14,194 --> 00:03:16,996
If all goes well,
Apollo 11 astronauts

15
00:03:17,300 --> 00:03:19,366
Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins

16
00:03:19,399 --> 00:03:22,535
are to lift off
from Pad 39A out there

17
00:03:22,569 --> 00:03:25,805
on the voyage
man always has dreamed about.

18
00:03:25,872 --> 00:03:27,941
So it is now, before they go,

19
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,846
as their gleaming vehicle sits
poised and peaceful out there,

20
00:03:32,879 --> 00:03:36,783
that there is time... if only
briefly in this busy morning...

21
00:03:36,850 --> 00:03:38,518
to think of those three men,

22
00:03:38,551 --> 00:03:41,121
and the burdens and the hopes
that they carry

23
00:03:41,187 --> 00:03:44,240
on behalf of all mankind.

24
00:03:55,702 --> 00:03:57,404
And boring through the vastness,

25
00:03:57,437 --> 00:04:00,106
the blackness,
and the cold of space,

26
00:04:00,173 --> 00:04:02,709
they'll carry the pledge
made eight years ago

27
00:04:02,742 --> 00:04:04,644
by President Kennedy.

28
00:04:04,711 --> 00:04:07,781
To put a man on the moon
and bring him back safely

29
00:04:07,814 --> 00:04:09,490
in this decade.

30
00:04:11,510 --> 00:04:14,921
Each segment of the mission,
every individual piece,

31
00:04:14,954 --> 00:04:17,290
has to be completed perfectly

32
00:04:17,323 --> 00:04:20,930
in order for the next step
to be possible.

33
00:04:20,126 --> 00:04:22,996
And of course the nation itself
is backing us

34
00:04:23,630 --> 00:04:27,267
so we just sincerely hope
that we measure up to that.

35
00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:29,336
The whole Apollo program
was designed

36
00:04:29,402 --> 00:04:31,638
to get two Americans
to the lunar surface

37
00:04:31,671 --> 00:04:34,140
and back again to Earth safely.

38
00:04:34,207 --> 00:04:36,676
The enormity of this event

39
00:04:36,743 --> 00:04:39,946
is something that only history
will be able to judge.

40
00:04:39,979 --> 00:04:44,170
Apollo 11 has very simply
been given the mission

41
00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:48,210
of carrying men to the moon,
landing them there,

42
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,257
and bringing them safely back.

43
00:04:51,291 --> 00:04:52,959
For in addition to the mission

44
00:04:52,992 --> 00:04:54,527
the three astronauts
will perform,

45
00:04:54,594 --> 00:04:56,329
and the experiments
they'll undertake,

46
00:04:56,363 --> 00:04:58,932
these men will carry with them
many other things,

47
00:04:58,965 --> 00:05:02,135
many things that are not nearly
so easy to describe.

48
00:05:25,792 --> 00:05:27,727
During the planned
Apollo 11 journey,

49
00:05:27,794 --> 00:05:29,562
we'll be concerned
with such things

50
00:05:29,629 --> 00:05:32,399
as mid-course corrections
and dockings.

51
00:05:32,465 --> 00:05:35,135
The astronauts of course will be
concerned with very much more.

52
00:06:00,326 --> 00:06:03,196
The flight of Apollo 11
is to be the culmination

53
00:06:03,229 --> 00:06:04,731
of a national effort

54
00:06:04,764 --> 00:06:07,901
and the most difficult, most
dangerous mission ever attempted

55
00:06:07,934 --> 00:06:10,303
since this country,
and the Russians,

56
00:06:10,370 --> 00:06:12,439
started sending men into space.

57
00:06:36,363 --> 00:06:40,330
38-year-old civilian
Neil Alden Armstrong

58
00:06:40,660 --> 00:06:43,603
is to become the first
human being to touch the moon.

59
00:06:43,636 --> 00:06:46,206
Aldrin will follow
just 20 minutes later,

60
00:06:46,239 --> 00:06:49,409
but Armstrong
will take that first step.

61
00:06:49,442 --> 00:06:50,910
The mission of Apollo 11,

62
00:06:50,944 --> 00:06:53,279
a journey certainly
for the history books,

63
00:06:53,313 --> 00:06:56,916
a beginning of
man's greatest adventure,

64
00:06:56,950 --> 00:07:00,860
leaving this planet
to set foot on the moon.

65
00:07:08,128 --> 00:07:09,763
- CBTS Apollo.
- Go ahead.

66
00:07:09,796 --> 00:07:12,465
Verify Go/No Go for start
automatic launch sequence.

67
00:07:12,499 --> 00:07:13,666
Verify Go.

68
00:07:13,733 --> 00:07:15,969
- CBTS copy.
- 561 verify.

69
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,338
CS18,
spacecraft ready switch on.

70
00:07:18,405 --> 00:07:19,172
Switch is on.

71
00:07:19,239 --> 00:07:20,473
Verify light.

72
00:07:20,507 --> 00:07:23,643
Roger, 562 verify.

73
00:07:23,677 --> 00:07:26,613
All stations standby to give
a crew departure status

74
00:07:26,646 --> 00:07:29,820
at this time.

75
00:07:29,115 --> 00:07:30,817
CBTS to CTSS 111.

76
00:07:30,850 --> 00:07:33,787
Go CTSS.

77
00:07:33,820 --> 00:07:35,288
- CBTS.
- Go.

78
00:07:35,321 --> 00:07:36,623
- DNS.
- Go.

79
00:07:36,656 --> 00:07:37,991
- STS.
- Go.

80
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,192
- FTS.
- Go.

81
00:07:39,259 --> 00:07:40,694
- RTS.
- Go.

82
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,429
- 8.
- 8 Go.

83
00:07:42,462 --> 00:07:44,764
- OK, BSC.
- Go.

84
00:07:46,933 --> 00:07:48,635
Verify elevator number one
at A level,

85
00:07:48,668 --> 00:07:51,338
elevator number two
at 320 level.

86
00:07:51,371 --> 00:07:53,306
Level as two and then 320 level.

87
00:07:53,340 --> 00:07:55,342
Verify.

88
00:07:55,375 --> 00:07:56,176
Okay.

89
00:07:56,209 --> 00:07:57,210
All right.

90
00:07:59,379 --> 00:08:03,149
214. Roger, you're go
for crew departure.

91
00:08:03,183 --> 00:08:05,552
Start ETP to 14.

92
00:08:05,618 --> 00:08:07,454
Roger, you're go
for crew departure.

93
00:08:07,487 --> 00:08:08,955
Affirmative (indistinct) go.

94
00:08:11,725 --> 00:08:14,894
The dawn of this day heralded
the dawning of a new age.

95
00:08:14,961 --> 00:08:19,666
It's a time of exhilaration,
reflection, hope, fulfillment,

96
00:08:19,699 --> 00:08:22,936
as a centuries old dream
starts toward reality.

97
00:08:32,145 --> 00:08:33,880
This is Apollo Saturn
Launch Control.

98
00:08:33,913 --> 00:08:36,483
T minus three hours,
four minutes, 32 seconds

99
00:08:36,516 --> 00:08:37,550
and counting.

100
00:08:37,584 --> 00:08:38,752
Right on time as far as

101
00:08:38,818 --> 00:08:40,553
the astronaut countdown
is concerned,

102
00:08:40,587 --> 00:08:43,523
the prime crew now departing
from their crew quarters

103
00:08:43,556 --> 00:08:45,910
here at
the Kennedy Space Center.

104
00:08:51,731 --> 00:08:53,900
Astronauts Neil Armstrong,
Buzz Aldrin,

105
00:08:53,933 --> 00:08:55,435
and then finally Mike Collins,

106
00:08:55,502 --> 00:08:57,337
plus their suit technicians

107
00:08:57,370 --> 00:09:00,106
and director of flight crew
operations Deke Slayton

108
00:09:00,173 --> 00:09:04,100
now boarding the transfer van
for the trip to the launch pad.

109
00:09:13,119 --> 00:09:14,854
The trip in the transfer van

110
00:09:14,888 --> 00:09:18,191
should take some 15 minutes
or so to reach the pad,

111
00:09:18,224 --> 00:09:20,760
at which time the astronauts
will board

112
00:09:20,794 --> 00:09:22,262
the first of two elevators

113
00:09:22,295 --> 00:09:26,900
for the trip to the 320 foot
level at the launch pad,

114
00:09:26,933 --> 00:09:30,136
where they will then proceed
to ingress the spacecraft.

115
00:09:36,376 --> 00:09:40,747
We logged the departure from
the building at about 6:27 a.m.

116
00:09:40,780 --> 00:09:42,282
Eastern Daylight Time.

117
00:09:42,315 --> 00:09:44,150
The transfer van now departing

118
00:09:44,217 --> 00:09:46,252
from the Manned Spacecraft
Operations Building

119
00:09:46,286 --> 00:09:47,887
at the Kennedy Space Center

120
00:09:47,921 --> 00:09:51,257
on the start of its eight mile
trip to Launch Pad A

121
00:09:51,291 --> 00:09:55,428
here at complex 39 where
the Saturn V launch vehicle,

122
00:09:55,462 --> 00:09:57,297
now fully loaded
with propellants,

123
00:09:57,330 --> 00:09:59,499
going through
preliminary checkouts.

124
00:09:59,566 --> 00:10:00,734
This is launch control.

125
00:10:18,585 --> 00:10:20,320
Pat, 10,000 odd cars,

126
00:10:20,353 --> 00:10:24,157
we estimated, were parked
around the gate 1 area

127
00:10:24,190 --> 00:10:25,325
at 4 a.m. when we got here.

128
00:10:25,358 --> 00:10:27,160
Cars every space here.

129
00:10:27,193 --> 00:10:29,763
Little kids staring wide-eyed
at the Saturn v

130
00:10:29,796 --> 00:10:33,366
glowing in the huge neon
spotlight 15 miles away.

131
00:10:33,433 --> 00:10:35,635
And we saw teenagers
with telescopes.

132
00:10:35,669 --> 00:10:38,772
It was the very same road we
came over eight long years ago,

133
00:10:38,805 --> 00:10:41,107
21 manned space flights ago.

134
00:10:41,141 --> 00:10:42,942
We came out
at just about the same hour

135
00:10:42,976 --> 00:10:45,145
to cover Alan Shepard's 15...

136
00:11:53,380 --> 00:11:54,914
This is Apollo Saturn
Launch Control.

137
00:11:54,948 --> 00:12:00,720
T minus 2 hours, 45 minutes,
55 seconds and counting.

138
00:12:00,754 --> 00:12:02,689
As the prime crew for Apollo 11,

139
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:04,791
astronauts Neil Armstrong,
Michael Collins,

140
00:12:04,858 --> 00:12:08,610
and Edwin Aldrin are on the
terminal part of their trip

141
00:12:08,940 --> 00:12:10,530
to the launch pad,
in the transfer van,

142
00:12:10,563 --> 00:12:14,100
it's now making the curve
toward the pad.

143
00:12:14,134 --> 00:12:17,270
We have discovered a problem
at the launch pad itself

144
00:12:17,303 --> 00:12:19,806
as the crew is about to arrive.

145
00:12:19,873 --> 00:12:24,778
We have a leak in a valve
located in a system

146
00:12:24,811 --> 00:12:28,682
associated with
replenishing liquid hydrogen

147
00:12:28,748 --> 00:12:31,951
for the third stage of
the Saturn V launch vehicle.

148
00:12:31,985 --> 00:12:35,221
We have sent a team of three
technicians and a safety man

149
00:12:35,255 --> 00:12:37,123
to the pad
and these technicians

150
00:12:37,157 --> 00:12:40,293
are now tightening bolts
around the valve.

151
00:12:40,326 --> 00:12:42,929
- CLTC, this is CLTS.
- Go ahead.

152
00:12:42,962 --> 00:12:46,266
We have a leak on
the S-IVB N valve.

153
00:12:46,299 --> 00:12:48,902
We have it in
the override closed position

154
00:12:48,935 --> 00:12:50,270
to see if it'll get better.

155
00:12:50,303 --> 00:12:52,305
It seems to be getting worse.

156
00:12:52,339 --> 00:12:54,740
Roger, which camera is that
available on?

157
00:12:54,107 --> 00:12:56,443
It's on camera 18.

158
00:12:56,476 --> 00:13:00,213
Camera 18, you can see the men
working on the hydrogen leak.

159
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:01,815
Once the technicians depart

160
00:13:01,848 --> 00:13:05,418
we will send hydrogen again
through this system

161
00:13:05,452 --> 00:13:09,255
to assure that the leak
has been corrected.

162
00:13:09,289 --> 00:13:13,126
The astronauts now coming up
toward the pad itself

163
00:13:13,159 --> 00:13:16,296
as the crew of
several technicians

164
00:13:16,329 --> 00:13:17,997
at the 200 foot level

165
00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:21,401
proceed to tighten some bolts
around a leaking valve.

166
00:13:21,468 --> 00:13:24,804
The astronaut team which has
just arrived at the pad,

167
00:13:24,838 --> 00:13:28,942
the transfer van now backing up
toward the elevator.

168
00:13:28,975 --> 00:13:31,378
In a matter of 5 minutes or so,
we'll be ready

169
00:13:31,444 --> 00:13:34,180
for the spacecraft commander
Neil Armstrong

170
00:13:34,214 --> 00:13:37,784
to come across the sill
at the 320 foot level.

171
00:13:37,817 --> 00:13:40,320
That is our status at 2 hours,
43 minutes,

172
00:13:40,353 --> 00:13:42,155
47 seconds and counting.

173
00:13:42,188 --> 00:13:43,323
This is Launch Control.

174
00:14:28,435 --> 00:14:30,804
- MSTC, CBTS 111.
- Go ahead.

175
00:14:30,870 --> 00:14:32,539
Astros proceeding to 320.

176
00:14:32,572 --> 00:14:34,708
Understand,
we'll get the camera.

177
00:14:34,741 --> 00:14:36,910
Okay, Günter, you can hit
the switch on the camera.

178
00:14:36,943 --> 00:14:39,612
LOAM, this is A2. IAS.

179
00:14:39,679 --> 00:14:41,581
Roger,
camera has been activated.

180
00:14:41,614 --> 00:14:44,584
CBTS MSTC,
the swing arm camera is on.

181
00:14:44,617 --> 00:14:47,754
CBTS copies.

182
00:14:47,787 --> 00:14:50,623
MSTC, the crew is approaching
the (indistinct).

183
00:14:50,690 --> 00:14:52,225
Okay, babe.

184
00:14:52,258 --> 00:14:53,760
This is Apollo Saturn
Launch Control,

185
00:14:53,793 --> 00:14:57,130
we've just passed the two hour
21 minute mark in our countdown

186
00:14:57,197 --> 00:14:59,899
and we are proceeding
at this time.

187
00:14:59,933 --> 00:15:01,935
At the 320 foot level,

188
00:15:01,968 --> 00:15:04,704
all three astronauts
now aboard the spacecraft.

189
00:15:04,738 --> 00:15:08,141
Just a few minutes ago,
astronaut Buzz Aldrin came in

190
00:15:08,208 --> 00:15:12,450
and took the center seat to join
Neil Armstrong on the left

191
00:15:12,780 --> 00:15:13,880
and Mike Collins on the right.

192
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:17,250
These are the positions
they will fly at liftoff.

193
00:15:17,283 --> 00:15:20,453
120 feet down, the work
continues on a leaky valve

194
00:15:20,487 --> 00:15:23,590
at the 200 foot level, the
technicians still hard at work

195
00:15:23,623 --> 00:15:26,593
tightening bolts around
that valve at this time.

196
00:15:26,626 --> 00:15:28,561
CDR, STC.
How do you read?

197
00:15:28,595 --> 00:15:30,330
STC, loud and clear.

198
00:15:30,397 --> 00:15:31,865
Good morning, Neil.

199
00:15:31,931 --> 00:15:32,966
Good morning.

200
00:15:32,999 --> 00:15:34,300
Welcome aboard.

201
00:15:34,334 --> 00:15:35,902
CMP, STC.
How do you read?

202
00:15:35,935 --> 00:15:37,337
STC, CMP.
Loud and clear.

203
00:15:37,404 --> 00:15:38,738
Good morning, Buzz.

204
00:15:38,772 --> 00:15:40,273
Good morning.
How are you gentlemen?

205
00:15:40,306 --> 00:15:41,708
Just fine, thank you.

206
00:15:41,775 --> 00:15:43,576
Let me make a last check here.

207
00:15:43,610 --> 00:15:46,513
CDR, LMP and CMP,
are you ready for hatch close?

208
00:15:46,579 --> 00:15:48,481
Any adjustment on your straps?

209
00:15:48,515 --> 00:15:49,883
LMP's happy.

210
00:15:49,949 --> 00:15:52,786
Roger. Okay, good luck.

211
00:15:52,819 --> 00:15:53,953
Thank you, Günter.

212
00:15:53,987 --> 00:15:56,456
See you around, Günter.

213
00:15:56,489 --> 00:15:57,891
All right, pad leader,
let's proceed.

214
00:15:57,924 --> 00:16:00,593
Roger, we're proceeding
with closing the hatch.

215
00:16:00,627 --> 00:16:02,429
- Roger.
- Sequence 441,

216
00:16:02,462 --> 00:16:04,164
the CM hatch is closed.

217
00:16:04,197 --> 00:16:05,165
Roger.

218
00:16:05,198 --> 00:16:06,332
The hatch is closed

219
00:16:06,366 --> 00:16:08,301
and we're beginning
to purge the cabin

220
00:16:08,335 --> 00:16:12,339
to bring it to the proper
atmosphere for launch,

221
00:16:12,372 --> 00:16:16,109
which is a combination
of oxygen and nitrogen,

222
00:16:16,142 --> 00:16:19,879
60% oxygen and 40% nitrogen
atmosphere.

223
00:16:19,946 --> 00:16:21,548
Of course
the astronauts themselves

224
00:16:21,614 --> 00:16:24,484
are breathing pure oxygen
through their space suits.

225
00:16:29,622 --> 00:16:31,825
Coming up shortly
will be another key test

226
00:16:31,858 --> 00:16:35,528
in which both the launch crew
for the launch vehicle crew

227
00:16:35,562 --> 00:16:37,364
and the spacecraft team

228
00:16:37,397 --> 00:16:41,100
combine together with
commander Neil Armstrong

229
00:16:41,340 --> 00:16:43,837
to make a thorough check of
the emergency detection system.

230
00:16:43,870 --> 00:16:46,539
This is the system that
will signal the astronauts

231
00:16:46,573 --> 00:16:49,442
in the cabin if anything
goes wrong below them.

232
00:16:49,509 --> 00:16:52,612
We used a ground based computer
to accomplish this test.

233
00:16:52,679 --> 00:16:54,848
It will take some 30 minutes.

234
00:17:13,566 --> 00:17:15,435
Neil Armstrong will be doing
most of the work

235
00:17:15,502 --> 00:17:16,903
in the spacecraft,

236
00:17:16,936 --> 00:17:20,540
responding as different
cue lights signify

237
00:17:20,573 --> 00:17:24,110
different difficulties
presented to him.

238
00:17:24,177 --> 00:17:27,380
Our countdown continuing,
this is Kennedy Launch Control.

239
00:17:35,355 --> 00:17:36,756
NASA officials.

240
00:17:36,790 --> 00:17:38,892
5,000 guests in all,

241
00:17:38,925 --> 00:17:41,961
including 400 congressmen and
members of the Supreme Court,

242
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,130
the Presidential Cabinet.

243
00:17:44,197 --> 00:17:47,467
The NASA official who escorted
us over to this site today

244
00:17:47,534 --> 00:17:49,269
has called it a Roman circus.

245
00:17:49,302 --> 00:17:52,238
We all know that NASA
has an agreement

246
00:17:52,272 --> 00:17:53,740
with over 60 countries...

247
00:17:55,542 --> 00:17:59,120
T minus 61 minutes
on the Apollo 11 countdown

248
00:17:59,790 --> 00:18:02,820
and all elements are go
at this time.

249
00:18:02,115 --> 00:18:04,451
Here in the firing room,
the launch vehicle test team

250
00:18:04,484 --> 00:18:07,620
still keeping a close eye
on the status of the propellants

251
00:18:07,654 --> 00:18:09,656
aboard
the Saturn V launch vehicle.

252
00:18:09,723 --> 00:18:11,491
This problem with
the leaking valve

253
00:18:11,558 --> 00:18:13,526
is no problem at this time.

254
00:18:13,593 --> 00:18:15,428
We've actually bypassed
the valve,

255
00:18:15,462 --> 00:18:18,798
but we are maintaining
our hydrogen supply

256
00:18:18,832 --> 00:18:20,266
aboard the vehicle.

257
00:18:20,300 --> 00:18:23,503
That big swing arm that has been
attached to the spacecraft

258
00:18:23,570 --> 00:18:25,538
up to now
will be moved back now.

259
00:18:25,605 --> 00:18:28,341
In 5 seconds, the swing arm
will come back.

260
00:18:30,110 --> 00:18:31,211
Mark.

261
00:18:44,958 --> 00:18:48,762
CBTS, this is CSA 9,
arm 9 is retracted.

262
00:18:48,795 --> 00:18:50,597
CBTS copy.

263
00:19:03,843 --> 00:19:07,447
Countdown still proceeding
satisfactorily at this time.

264
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,551
T minus 30 minutes,
52 seconds and counting;

265
00:19:11,618 --> 00:19:12,919
aiming toward our
planned liftoff time

266
00:19:12,952 --> 00:19:15,221
of 32 minutes past the hour,

267
00:19:15,288 --> 00:19:17,757
the start of
our launch window,

268
00:19:17,824 --> 00:19:20,627
some final checks of
the destruct system

269
00:19:20,660 --> 00:19:23,663
of the three stages of
the Saturn V launch vehicle.

270
00:19:23,697 --> 00:19:25,865
In the event,
during powered flight

271
00:19:25,899 --> 00:19:29,690
that the vehicle strayed
rather violently off course,

272
00:19:29,135 --> 00:19:30,337
the range safety officer

273
00:19:30,370 --> 00:19:33,306
could take action to destroy
the vehicle,

274
00:19:33,340 --> 00:19:36,209
which obviously would occur
after the astronauts

275
00:19:36,242 --> 00:19:41,514
were separated by their escape
tower from the faulty vehicle.

276
00:19:41,548 --> 00:19:44,551
We've just got by an important
test with the launch vehicle,

277
00:19:44,584 --> 00:19:47,354
checking out the various
batteries in the three stages

278
00:19:47,387 --> 00:19:50,357
and Instrument Unit
of the Saturn V.

279
00:19:50,390 --> 00:19:52,625
We remain on external power
through most of the count

280
00:19:52,692 --> 00:19:54,527
to preserve those batteries

281
00:19:54,561 --> 00:19:57,230
which must be used during
the powered flight.

282
00:19:57,263 --> 00:19:59,733
We've just taken a look at them
by going internal

283
00:19:59,766 --> 00:20:02,235
and then switching back
to external again.

284
00:20:02,268 --> 00:20:03,603
The batteries all look good.

285
00:20:03,670 --> 00:20:06,606
The next time we go internal
will be at the 50 second mark

286
00:20:06,673 --> 00:20:09,109
with those batteries and they
will remain, of course,

287
00:20:09,175 --> 00:20:11,745
on internal power
during the flight.

288
00:20:11,778 --> 00:20:14,381
14 minutes, 30 seconds
and counting.

289
00:20:14,414 --> 00:20:17,584
All still going well with
the countdown at this time.

290
00:20:17,617 --> 00:20:19,586
For status report,
we'll now switch

291
00:20:19,619 --> 00:20:22,422
to Mission Control Houston.

292
00:20:22,455 --> 00:20:24,824
This is Apollo Mission Control.

293
00:20:24,891 --> 00:20:27,160
Flight Director Cliff
Charlesworth's team

294
00:20:27,227 --> 00:20:28,328
is on station here

295
00:20:28,395 --> 00:20:30,130
in the Mission Operations
Control Room,

296
00:20:30,196 --> 00:20:34,134
ready to assume the control of
this flight at tower clearance.

297
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,436
All flight controllers,
coming up on auto sequence.

298
00:20:36,469 --> 00:20:38,104
- BOOSTER, how you?
- We're go, Flight.

299
00:20:38,138 --> 00:20:39,572
- EECOM?
- Go, Flight.

300
00:20:39,606 --> 00:20:40,940
- GNC?
- Go, Flight.

301
00:20:40,974 --> 00:20:42,342
- TELCOM?
- Go, Flight.

302
00:20:42,409 --> 00:20:43,476
- CONTROL.
- Go.

303
00:20:43,543 --> 00:20:44,811
NETWORK, got it there?

304
00:20:44,878 --> 00:20:46,746
That's affirmative, Flight.

305
00:20:46,780 --> 00:20:48,448
Mission director, CBTS 111,

306
00:20:48,481 --> 00:20:50,483
- verify go for launch.
- Go for launch.

307
00:20:50,550 --> 00:20:53,887
We passed the 6 minute mark
in our countdown for Apollo 11.

308
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,323
Now 5 minutes,
52 seconds and counting.

309
00:20:57,390 --> 00:20:59,159
CTSF, verify go for launch.

310
00:20:59,225 --> 00:21:00,994
CTSF verify go for launch.

311
00:21:01,610 --> 00:21:02,929
CTSC, verify go for launch.

312
00:21:02,962 --> 00:21:04,330
CTSC verify go for launch.

313
00:21:04,397 --> 00:21:05,965
SRO, verify go for launch.

314
00:21:05,999 --> 00:21:07,367
SRO verify go for launch.

315
00:21:07,434 --> 00:21:09,350
LM, verify go for launch.

316
00:21:09,102 --> 00:21:10,503
LM go for launch.

317
00:21:10,570 --> 00:21:11,771
(indistinct),
everybody go for launch?

318
00:21:11,805 --> 00:21:13,390
Flight, go for launch.

319
00:21:13,106 --> 00:21:15,608
CBTS copies.

320
00:21:15,642 --> 00:21:18,378
We have some
7.6 million pounds of thrust

321
00:21:18,445 --> 00:21:20,246
pushing the vehicle upward.

322
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:25,685
A vehicle that weighs close to
six and a half million pounds.

323
00:21:25,752 --> 00:21:27,487
This is Apollo Saturn
Launch Control,

324
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,658
T minus one minute, 35 seconds
on the Apollo mission,

325
00:21:31,691 --> 00:21:34,361
the flight to land
the first men on the moon.

326
00:21:34,427 --> 00:21:36,763
Apollo 11, this is
Launch Operations Manager,

327
00:21:36,796 --> 00:21:39,866
the launch team wishes you
good luck and god speed.

328
00:21:39,933 --> 00:21:42,135
It sure has been
a nice, smooth countdown.

329
00:21:42,168 --> 00:21:42,969
Thank you, babe.

330
00:21:42,969 --> 00:21:44,370
LMP, VHF...

331
00:21:44,104 --> 00:21:46,206
T minus 60 seconds and counting.

332
00:21:46,272 --> 00:21:48,508
We passed T minus 60...

333
00:21:48,541 --> 00:21:51,845
55 seconds and counting.

334
00:21:51,878 --> 00:21:53,480
Neil Armstrong
just reported back

335
00:21:53,513 --> 00:21:55,150
it's been
a real smooth countdown.

336
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:56,983
We passed
the 50 second mark.

337
00:21:57,170 --> 00:21:59,252
Power transfer is complete.

338
00:21:59,319 --> 00:22:03,356
On internal power with
the launch vehicle at this time.

339
00:22:03,390 --> 00:22:07,727
40 seconds away from
the Apollo 11 liftoff.

340
00:22:07,794 --> 00:22:09,763
All the second stage tanks
now pressurized.

341
00:22:09,829 --> 00:22:11,698
35 seconds and counting...

342
00:22:11,731 --> 00:22:13,733
We are still go with Apollo 11.

343
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,137
- 30 seconds.
- 30 seconds and counting.

344
00:22:17,170 --> 00:22:18,838
Astronauts report it feels good.

345
00:22:18,872 --> 00:22:20,874
T minus 25 seconds.

346
00:22:24,811 --> 00:22:26,246
20 seconds and counting.

347
00:22:29,490 --> 00:22:32,652
T minus 15 seconds,
guidance is internal.

348
00:22:32,686 --> 00:22:36,489
12, 11, 10, 9.

349
00:22:36,523 --> 00:22:38,525
Ignition sequence starts.

350
00:23:27,607 --> 00:23:29,542
Liftoff!
We have a liftoff.

351
00:23:29,576 --> 00:23:31,878
32 minutes past the hour,

352
00:23:31,911 --> 00:23:34,948
liftoff of Apollo 11.

353
00:23:34,981 --> 00:23:36,216
Clear the tower.

354
00:23:36,249 --> 00:23:37,250
Tower clear!

355
00:23:37,283 --> 00:23:39,753
Roger, we got a roll program.

356
00:23:39,786 --> 00:23:41,988
Neil Armstrong reporting
their roll and pitch program

357
00:23:42,550 --> 00:23:44,991
which puts Apollo 11
on a proper heading.

358
00:24:30,303 --> 00:24:31,871
One bravo.

359
00:24:33,473 --> 00:24:36,843
One bravo is
a abort control mode...

360
00:24:42,115 --> 00:24:44,384
Altitude's two miles.

361
00:24:49,789 --> 00:24:51,958
Apollo 11, you're good
at one minute.

362
00:25:03,370 --> 00:25:07,674
We're through the region of
maximum dynamic pressure now.

363
00:25:07,707 --> 00:25:10,443
Yeah, everything
looks good here.

364
00:25:10,510 --> 00:25:11,611
11, Houston.

365
00:25:11,678 --> 00:25:13,780
Your guidance is converged,
you're looking good.

366
00:25:15,582 --> 00:25:17,851
We're 1350 at the start, Bob.

367
00:25:17,884 --> 00:25:20,587
8 miles downrange,
12 miles high.

00:25:56,523 --> 00:25:57,857
Cutoff, ignition.

382
00:25:57,891 --> 00:25:59,626
- Thrust is go all engines.
- Looks good.

383
00:25:59,693 --> 00:26:00,760
11, Houston,

384
00:26:00,794 --> 00:26:03,163
thrust is go all engines,
you're looking good.

385
00:26:05,532 --> 00:26:07,767
We've got skirt sep.

386
00:26:07,801 --> 00:26:10,970
- Roger, we confirm skirt sep.
- Roger.

387
00:26:11,370 --> 00:26:12,380
Tower's gone.

388
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:13,239

00:26:39,999 --> 00:26:43,737
Houston, be advised,
the visual is go today.

397
00:26:43,770 --> 00:26:46,139
This is Houston, roger that.

398
00:26:46,172 --> 00:26:49,843
Altitude is 100 miles,
downrange 883 miles.

399

And ignition.

401
00:27:01,254 --> 00:27:03,923
Ignition confirmed,
thrust is go, 11.

402
00:27:06,793 --> 00:27:09,620
And we have
a good third stage now.

403
00:27:12,699 --> 00:27:16,503
Velocity 23,128
feet per second.

404

00:27:29,150 --> 00:27:30,884
And Roger 11.

407
00:27:39,959 --> 00:27:41,428
FLIGHT, FIDO, we are go.

408
00:27:41,494 --> 00:27:44,197
- Confirmed go.
- Apollo 11, this is Houston,

409
00:27:44,230 --> 00:27:48,201
you are confirmed go

410
00:27:48,234 --> 00:27:49,536
Copy.

411
00:27:52,380 --> 00:27:55,508
We have a report
on the launch heart rates now

412
00:27:55,542 --> 00:27:56,876
from the flight surgeon.

413
00:27:56,910 --> 00:27:59,779

Lunar Module Pilot
Buzz Aldrin, 88.

416
00:28:09,220 --> 00:28:11,358
FLIGHT, FIDO, we'll have
some radar in shortly.

417
00:28:11,391 --> 00:28:13,360
Flight dynamics officer
Dave Reed

418
00:28:13,393 --> 00:28:17,197
will report a refined orbit
after more radar tracking.

419
00:28:17,230 --> 00:28:18,631
Apollo 11,
this is Houston,

420
00:28:18,698 --> 00:28:21,768
the booster has been configured
for orbital coast,

421
00:28:21,835 --> 00:28:24,904
both spacecrafts
are looking good, over.

422
00:28:24,938 --> 00:28:26,720
Roger.

423
00:28:28,942 --> 00:28:30,877
You want some of these lights
down further, Mark?

424
00:28:30,910 --> 00:28:32,545
Mike?

425
00:28:32,579 --> 00:28:33,813
Don't worry about it
for the time being,

426
00:28:33,847 --> 00:28:36,216
I'm potting around with
handholds right now, Neil.

427
00:28:36,249 --> 00:28:40,153
Apollo 11, this is Houston,
through Tananarive, over.

428
00:28:40,220 --> 00:28:41,721
Hello, Houston, Apollo 11.

429
00:28:41,755 --> 00:28:43,790
- Go ahead.
- For your information,

430
00:28:43,857 --> 00:28:45,992
Canary radar shows you

431
00:28:46,590 --> 00:28:51,164
in a 103.0 by 103.0 orbit.

432
00:28:51,231 --> 00:28:53,133
Over.

433
00:28:53,199 --> 00:28:55,235
Beautiful.

434
00:28:55,268 --> 00:29:02,809
You'll be AOS
at Goldstone at 1:29:02,

435
00:29:02,876 --> 00:29:09,215
LOS at Goldstone,
1:33:55, over.

436
00:29:09,249 --> 00:29:10,417
Roger.

437
00:29:10,450 --> 00:29:13,687
This is Apollo Control
at 1 hour 51 minutes.

438
00:29:13,753 --> 00:29:16,856
Moving across the Atlantic now
towards Africa.

439
00:29:16,923 --> 00:29:18,625
And on the next revolution,

440
00:29:18,658 --> 00:29:21,227
the spacecraft
will be accelerating

441
00:29:21,261 --> 00:29:24,640
to the required speed
to get it into an orbit

442
00:29:24,970 --> 00:29:25,498
that'll intercept the moon

443
00:29:25,565 --> 00:29:28,535
during the trans-lunar
injection maneuver,

444
00:29:28,601 --> 00:29:30,203
the burn with
the Saturn third stage

445
00:29:30,270 --> 00:29:31,604
that will place
the spacecraft

446
00:29:31,638 --> 00:29:34,441
on its trajectory
toward the moon.

447
00:29:37,100 --> 00:29:38,378
Go/No Go for TLI.

448
00:29:38,445 --> 00:29:39,179
- GUIDANCE.
- Go, Flight.

449
00:29:39,245 --> 00:29:40,447
- GNC.
- We're go, Flight.

450
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:41,715
- EECOM.
- We're go, Flight.

451
00:29:41,781 --> 00:29:42,949
- FIDO.
- We're go, Flight.

452
00:29:42,982 --> 00:29:44,150
- RETRO.
- Go, Flight.

453
00:29:44,184 --> 00:29:46,520
- Ok, CAPCOM.
- Apollo 11,

454
00:29:46,119 --> 00:29:48,688
this is Houston,
you are go for TLI.

455
00:29:48,755 --> 00:29:49,856
Over.

456
00:29:49,923 --> 00:29:51,758
Apollo 11, thank you.

457
00:29:51,791 --> 00:29:53,693
We just got telemetry
back on here, BOOSTER,

458
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,663
and everything is go.

459
00:29:56,696 --> 00:29:58,331
Roger, everything
looks good here.

460
00:29:58,365 --> 00:29:59,899
We're showing
present altitude

461
00:29:59,966 --> 00:30:02,235
about 108 nautical miles.

462
00:30:02,302 --> 00:30:07,400
We expect to be at an altitude
of 177 nautical miles at cutoff.

463
00:30:07,107 --> 00:30:09,943
We're just coming in
to the terminator here.

464
00:30:17,717 --> 00:30:19,552
Ignition.

465
00:30:19,619 --> 00:30:20,987
We have ignition, Flight.

466
00:30:21,210 --> 00:30:21,821
Roger.

467
00:30:21,855 --> 00:30:22,856
We're go.

468
00:30:22,889 --> 00:30:23,890
Thrust is go.

469
00:30:23,957 --> 00:30:26,726
We confirm ignition
and the thrust is go.

470
00:30:26,793 --> 00:30:27,694
GUIDANCE initiate (indistinct).

471
00:30:27,727 --> 00:30:28,728
Roger.

472
00:30:28,795 --> 00:30:30,563
FIDO, radar confirms ignition.

473
00:30:30,630 --> 00:30:32,320
Trajectory
and guidance look good

474
00:30:32,650 --> 00:30:34,234
and the stage is good, over.

475
00:30:34,300 --> 00:30:36,336
Roger, Apollo 11 is go.

476
00:30:42,909 --> 00:30:46,120
Telemetry and radar
tracking are both solid.

477
00:31:04,397 --> 00:31:06,990
- Cut-off.
- Roger.

478
00:31:06,166 --> 00:31:09,836
We show cut-off and we copy
the numbers on noun 62.

479
00:31:12,272 --> 00:31:13,573
Houston, Apollo 11,

480
00:31:13,606 --> 00:31:17,243
that Saturn gave us
a magnificent ride.

481
00:31:17,277 --> 00:31:19,790
Roger, 11,
it certainly looks like

482
00:31:19,112 --> 00:31:20,980
you're well on your way now.

483
00:31:21,470 --> 00:31:26,860
That was Neil Armstrong
praising the launch vehicle.

484
00:31:26,119 --> 00:31:27,487
- FLIGHT FIDO.
- GO.

485
00:31:27,554 --> 00:31:28,822
We finally got
some radar data back.

486
00:31:28,855 --> 00:31:29,723
Looks good.

487
00:31:29,756 --> 00:31:31,910
We had a good burn...

488
00:31:31,124 --> 00:31:32,726
we've got a good flight
to the moon coming up.

489
00:31:32,759 --> 00:31:34,361
Roger.

490
00:31:34,394 --> 00:31:36,896
FLIGHT CAPCOM, you want me
to pass up those times?

491
00:31:36,930 --> 00:31:38,665
- That's affirm.
- Okay.

492
00:31:40,867 --> 00:31:42,602
Apollo 11, this is Houston.

493
00:31:42,635 --> 00:31:44,571
For your information,
we expect the maneuver

494
00:31:44,604 --> 00:31:50,577
to separation attitude
to begin at 3 plus 05 plus 03.

495
00:31:50,610 --> 00:31:52,212
The crew at this time
pressing ahead

496
00:31:52,245 --> 00:31:55,582
with their transposition
and docking maneuver.

497
00:31:55,615 --> 00:31:58,618
The spacecraft,
after having separated

498
00:31:58,651 --> 00:32:01,821
the Saturn third stage,
turning around,

499
00:32:01,888 --> 00:32:03,857
docking with
the lunar module,

500
00:32:03,923 --> 00:32:05,925
extracting the lunar module

501
00:32:05,959 --> 00:32:07,961
from the Saturn third stage,

502
00:32:07,994 --> 00:32:10,597
and pushing ahead
en route to the moon.

503
00:32:13,166 --> 00:32:14,667
A little bit to our right.

504
00:32:14,734 --> 00:32:15,935
Okay, I see him.

505
00:32:15,969 --> 00:32:18,905
We need about 5-degree right,
we need to stop our...

506
00:32:22,742 --> 00:32:24,844
He's pretty far away.

507
00:32:26,346 --> 00:32:28,715
How long do we want
to run this film?

508
00:32:30,583 --> 00:32:31,851
How does he look, Mike?

509
00:32:31,918 --> 00:32:35,155
Okay, you got a 100.4.

510
00:32:35,188 --> 00:32:36,790
It's a very weak signal.

511
00:32:36,823 --> 00:32:38,191
We believe
that Mike Collins

512
00:32:38,258 --> 00:32:40,126
is now maneuvering
the spacecraft.

513
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,829
The antenna patterns
aren't too good at the moment.

514
00:32:53,390 --> 00:32:56,643
Apollo 11, this is Houston
broadcasting in the blind,

515
00:32:56,676 --> 00:32:58,978
request Omni Bravo
if you read us.

516
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,347
Out.

517
00:33:05,652 --> 00:33:08,521
The whole LM quivers
every so often.

518
00:33:08,555 --> 00:33:11,391
The whole surface of it,
you know, shakes like that.

519
00:33:11,458 --> 00:33:12,892
- Really?
- Just in one spot;

520
00:33:12,959 --> 00:33:14,940
it's not being hit...

521
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,162
Standby, we're close.

522
00:33:37,417 --> 00:33:38,518
Houston, Apollo 11,

523
00:33:38,551 --> 00:33:40,286
all 12 latches are locked.

524
00:33:40,353 --> 00:33:42,756
Buzz Aldrin reporting
that all 12 of the latches

525
00:33:42,822 --> 00:33:45,910
in the docking mechanism
have locked.

526
00:33:45,158 --> 00:33:47,293
Houston, we're ready
for LM ejection.

527
00:33:50,830 --> 00:33:53,330
We are sep'd,
we have a cryo press light.

528
00:33:54,934 --> 00:33:58,705
Houston, Apollo 11,
we've completed our maneuver.

529
00:33:58,738 --> 00:34:00,874
Houston, roger out.

530
00:34:00,907 --> 00:34:03,576
This is Apollo Control
at 6 hours, 16 minutes

531
00:34:03,610 --> 00:34:04,477
into the mission.

532
00:34:04,544 --> 00:34:10,116
Velocity now
11,479 feet per second.

533
00:34:10,183 --> 00:34:12,285
Apollo 11's distance
from Earth,

534
00:34:12,352 --> 00:34:16,456
27,938 nautical miles.

535
00:34:16,523 --> 00:34:19,859
CAPCOM is now Charlie Duke
and Gene Kranz

536
00:34:19,893 --> 00:34:21,661
and his white team
of flight controllers

537
00:34:21,728 --> 00:34:24,264
is preparing to take over
the responsibility

538
00:34:24,297 --> 00:34:25,932
from Cliff Charlesworth's
team.

539
00:34:25,965 --> 00:34:28,435
The PTC has started now,
it looks good to us,

540
00:34:28,468 --> 00:34:30,270
and we'll be ready to copy
in a minute or two.

541
00:34:30,303 --> 00:34:31,971
Roger, Mike,
we see it increasing now.

542
00:34:32,380 --> 00:34:33,606
The spacecraft
will be placed

543
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,408
in the passive
thermal control mode,

544
00:34:35,442 --> 00:34:37,844
will be rotated
about its X-axis

545
00:34:37,911 --> 00:34:39,946
at a rate of about
3 revolutions per hour

546
00:34:39,979 --> 00:34:42,315
to maintain
proper temperature balance

547
00:34:42,382 --> 00:34:43,616
within the spacecraft.

548
00:34:43,650 --> 00:34:45,151
Houston,
you might be interested

549
00:34:45,218 --> 00:34:47,620
that out my left hand window
right now,

550
00:34:47,654 --> 00:34:51,825
I can observe the entire
continent of North America,

551
00:34:51,891 --> 00:34:53,927
down to the Yucatan Peninsula,

552
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,863
Cuba, and then
I run out of window.

553
00:34:56,930 --> 00:34:58,640
I didn't know
what I was looking at,

554
00:34:58,980 --> 00:34:59,499
but I sure did like it.

555
00:34:59,566 --> 00:35:01,668
Okay.

556
00:35:01,735 --> 00:35:03,837
I didn't have much
outside my window.

557
00:35:03,903 --> 00:35:04,738
Apollo 11, Houston.

558
00:35:04,771 --> 00:35:06,272
We'd like
a crew status report.

559
00:35:06,306 --> 00:35:08,410
We're about
to tell you goodnight, over.

560
00:35:10,944 --> 00:35:12,812
Status report is as follows:

561
00:35:12,846 --> 00:35:16,616
Radiation-CDR 1102,

562
00:35:16,649 --> 00:35:20,120
CMP 10002,

563
00:35:20,153 --> 00:35:23,757
LMP 09003,

564
00:35:23,790 --> 00:35:25,859
Negative medications,

565
00:35:25,925 --> 00:35:28,695
fit as a fiddle, over.

566
00:35:28,762 --> 00:35:30,363
Copy 11, thank you much.

567
00:35:30,430 --> 00:35:33,266
You're cleared
for some Zs, over.

568
00:35:33,299 --> 00:35:35,835
Okay, maybe we'll
get around to lunch.

569
00:35:39,806 --> 00:35:41,675
Morning, Houston, Apollo 11.

570
00:35:41,708 --> 00:35:43,977
Roger, Apollo 11, good morning.

571
00:35:44,100 --> 00:35:46,479
Goldstone reports
they're receiving TV

572
00:35:46,513 --> 00:35:47,614
from the spacecraft.

573
00:35:47,647 --> 00:35:50,383
Calling in from
about 130,000 miles out.

574
00:35:50,450 --> 00:35:52,285
Hello there, sports fans,
you got a little bit of me,

575
00:35:52,318 --> 00:35:53,820
plus Neil's
on the center couch

576
00:35:53,853 --> 00:35:55,188
and Buzz is doing
the camera work.

577
00:35:55,221 --> 00:35:56,756
And Neil's standing
on his head again,

578
00:35:56,823 --> 00:35:58,591
he's trying
to make me nervous.

579
00:35:58,658 --> 00:36:02,228
Roger, copy, and we see
the DSKY flashing with a 651.

580
00:36:02,295 --> 00:36:03,897
We do have a happy home,

581
00:36:03,963 --> 00:36:05,498
there's plenty of room
for the three of us.

582
00:36:05,532 --> 00:36:10,170
Apollo 11 is presently 131,000
nautical miles from Earth.

583
00:36:10,203 --> 00:36:13,406
The spacecraft slowly rotates
to maintain thermal balance.

584
00:36:13,473 --> 00:36:15,542
It looks like we got
a good PTC going.

585
00:36:15,575 --> 00:36:17,577
It's good night
from the white team, over.

586
00:36:17,644 --> 00:36:19,913
Okay, see you tomorrow,
thank you for everything.

587
00:36:19,979 --> 00:36:21,614
Good morning, Apollo 11.

588
00:36:21,681 --> 00:36:23,490
Good morning, Houston.
Apollo 11.

589
00:36:23,830 --> 00:36:26,252
Yeah, I've got the world
in my window for a change.

590
00:36:26,319 --> 00:36:28,722
Sounds like one of these
rotating restaurants.

591
00:36:28,755 --> 00:36:30,523
Okay, all flight controllers,
let's get handed over

592
00:36:30,557 --> 00:36:32,258
pretty quickly
to the white team here.

593
00:36:32,325 --> 00:36:34,194
We're going to be crawling
into the LM shortly,

594
00:36:34,227 --> 00:36:35,862
we're terminating PTC.

595
00:36:35,895 --> 00:36:38,231
FLIGHT NETWORK,
we're receiving live TV.

596
00:36:38,264 --> 00:36:39,866
Interior view
of the command module

597
00:36:39,899 --> 00:36:41,901
looking up into
the LM hatch area.

598
00:36:41,935 --> 00:36:43,303
Okay, it's moved now,
coming down.

599
00:36:43,370 --> 00:36:45,572
Yeah, we're about
to open the hatch now.

600
00:36:45,605 --> 00:36:47,741
Buzz Aldrin has apparently
carried the camera

601
00:36:47,774 --> 00:36:48,775
into the LM with him.

602
00:36:48,842 --> 00:36:52,212
The vehicle
is surprisingly very clean.

603
00:36:52,245 --> 00:36:54,180
Just a moment ago,
we had a good shot of your PLSS,

604
00:36:54,214 --> 00:36:56,182
Buzz, and the two helmet
stowage bags,

605
00:36:56,216 --> 00:36:59,686
and now behind
we have the DSKY and the ACA.

606
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,756
That's about the position
we'll be putting the camera in

607
00:37:02,789 --> 00:37:04,924
after the initial descent
down the ladder.

608
00:37:04,958 --> 00:37:06,893
It will be taking
one frame a second.

609
00:37:06,926 --> 00:37:08,661
Hello there, earthlings.

610
00:37:08,728 --> 00:37:09,796
Hello there.

611
00:37:09,863 --> 00:37:11,898
Probably
the most unusual position

612
00:37:11,931 --> 00:37:13,400
a cameraman's ever had,

613
00:37:13,433 --> 00:37:15,301
hanging by his toes
from a tunnel

614
00:37:15,368 --> 00:37:17,237
and taking a picture
upside down.

615
00:37:17,270 --> 00:37:19,606
We're going to go ahead
and take all the loose data

616
00:37:19,639 --> 00:37:22,750
on back into the
command module, Charlie.

617
00:37:22,108 --> 00:37:23,476
Roger.

618
00:37:23,543 --> 00:37:27,447
And we're going to turn
our TV monitor off now

619
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,617
while we have some other work
to do, Apollo 11,

620
00:37:30,650 --> 00:37:32,686
signing off.

621
00:37:32,752 --> 00:37:34,120
Apollo 11, Houston.

622
00:37:34,154 --> 00:37:35,889
As the sun sinks
slowly in the west,

623
00:37:35,922 --> 00:37:37,957
the white team
bids you good night.

624
00:37:37,991 --> 00:37:39,859
You earned your pay
today, Charlie.

625
00:37:39,926 --> 00:37:41,428
Roger.

626
00:37:41,461 --> 00:37:43,960
All right, goodnight all.

627
00:38:03,616 --> 00:38:06,286
...the government
has succeeded

628
00:38:06,319 --> 00:38:09,222
in harnessing the resources
of the government,

629
00:38:09,289 --> 00:38:12,525
the scientific community,
the universities...

630
00:38:12,592 --> 00:38:14,600
Now let's take a few minutes
to review

631
00:38:14,940 --> 00:38:16,229
what else has been going on
around the world

632
00:38:16,296 --> 00:38:18,965
while Apollo 11
has held our attention.

633
00:38:18,998 --> 00:38:21,000
The lull in the ground fighting
in Vietnam

634
00:38:21,340 --> 00:38:23,370
is now in its fifth week
with only one incident

635
00:38:23,436 --> 00:38:25,972
reported from the battle field
so far today,

636
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:27,841
and that one described as minor.

637
00:38:27,874 --> 00:38:29,342
Police Chief Dominick Arena,

638
00:38:29,376 --> 00:38:30,844
who filed a formal complaint

639
00:38:30,877 --> 00:38:32,412
charging
Senator Edward Kennedy

640
00:38:32,479 --> 00:38:34,470
with leaving the scene
of the accident

641
00:38:34,114 --> 00:38:36,216
that took the life
of Mary Jo Kopechne,

642
00:38:36,282 --> 00:38:38,551
a passenger
in the senator's car.

643
00:38:38,618 --> 00:38:40,320
Kennedy, who suffered
a slight concussion

644
00:38:40,353 --> 00:38:42,188
in the accident
remains in seclusion

645
00:38:42,222 --> 00:38:44,591
near the family compound
at Hyannis Port.

646
00:38:44,657 --> 00:38:46,226
FD1 FAO.

647
00:38:46,292 --> 00:38:47,427
Go ahead.

648
00:38:47,494 --> 00:38:48,995
You hear about that story
about Ted Kennedy?

649
00:38:49,290 --> 00:38:50,363
Did y'all hear about that?

650
00:38:50,397 --> 00:38:51,798
That was the biggest story
on the news.

651
00:38:51,831 --> 00:38:53,833
Yeah, yeah, they'd
forgotten about Apollo

652
00:38:53,867 --> 00:38:54,868
for Ted Kennedy.

653
00:38:54,901 --> 00:38:56,870
GNC, this is CAPCOM on MOCR 1.

654
00:38:56,903 --> 00:38:57,537
Go ahead.

655
00:38:57,570 --> 00:39:00,173
Have your people
plotted pressure

656
00:39:00,206 --> 00:39:01,708
in that bottle versus time,

657
00:39:01,741 --> 00:39:03,430
so we could take
a look at it?

658
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:04,678
I don't think
they've got it yet,

659
00:39:04,711 --> 00:39:06,546
they're testing work, CAPCOM.

660
00:39:06,579 --> 00:39:08,415
Okay, how about giving me a call
when that comes up,

661
00:39:08,415 --> 00:39:09,949
we'd like to take a look at it
on one of the screens.

662
00:39:09,983 --> 00:39:11,510
Rog.

663
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:12,886
Morning again, Houston.
Apollo 11.

664
00:39:12,919 --> 00:39:15,210
Roger, 11, good morning.

665
00:39:15,550 --> 00:39:17,290
Your systems are looking good
from down here.

666
00:39:17,357 --> 00:39:19,859
Yeah, looks good
up here too, Bruce.

667
00:39:19,893 --> 00:39:22,595
Deke Slayton, director
of flight crew operations

668
00:39:22,662 --> 00:39:24,397
and two members
of the backup crew,

669
00:39:24,431 --> 00:39:27,600
Bill Anders, Jim Lovell
have joined Bruce McCandless

670
00:39:27,667 --> 00:39:30,437
at the CAPCOM console.

671
00:39:30,503 --> 00:39:33,440
Apollo 11,
this is Houston, over.

672
00:39:33,506 --> 00:39:34,607
Roger, go ahead, Houston.

673
00:39:34,674 --> 00:39:35,675
Apollo 11.

674
00:39:35,709 --> 00:39:36,976
11, this is Houston.

675
00:39:37,430 --> 00:39:38,278
If Mike has a mask,

676
00:39:38,345 --> 00:39:40,113
he's lost respiration rates

677
00:39:40,180 --> 00:39:42,820
on the biomed telemetry.

678
00:39:42,115 --> 00:39:43,450
Well, he was shaving
a little bit ago.

679
00:39:43,450 --> 00:39:45,218
He might have...

680
00:39:45,251 --> 00:39:47,954
Okay, Mike, we had
a request that you check

681
00:39:48,210 --> 00:39:49,889
the two electrodes
that are placed

682
00:39:49,923 --> 00:39:53,393
one on each side of your
lower rib cage, over.

683
00:39:53,426 --> 00:39:56,262
All those wires and things
look normal up here.

684
00:39:56,296 --> 00:39:59,650
Roger, Mike, we can see
variations on our trace

685
00:39:59,990 --> 00:40:00,567
as you connected
and disconnected,

686
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:04,104
but the medics
still don't have a signal.

687
00:40:04,137 --> 00:40:07,407
I promise to let you know
if I stop breathing.

688
00:40:12,112 --> 00:40:14,814
Coming up in less
than 10 seconds now,

689
00:40:14,881 --> 00:40:17,717
we'll be crossing into
the sphere of influence

690
00:40:17,751 --> 00:40:19,586
of the moon
at this point

691
00:40:19,619 --> 00:40:22,222
as the moon's
gravitational force

692
00:40:22,255 --> 00:40:25,291
becomes the dominant effect

693
00:40:25,325 --> 00:40:27,560
on the spacecraft trajectory

694
00:40:27,594 --> 00:40:29,329
and our displays
will shift

695
00:40:29,396 --> 00:40:32,665
from Earth reference
to moon reference.

696
00:40:32,732 --> 00:40:34,300
The spacecraft
was at a distance

697
00:40:34,334 --> 00:40:40,106
of 186,437 nautical miles
from Earth

698
00:40:40,140 --> 00:40:45,478
and 33,822 nautical miles
from the moon.

699
00:40:45,512 --> 00:40:48,682
All spacecraft systems
are functioning normally,

700
00:40:48,748 --> 00:40:50,817
the mission
going very smoothly.

701
00:40:53,420 --> 00:40:56,560
View of the moon that we've been
having's really spectacular.

702
00:40:56,122 --> 00:41:00,527
The sun right behind
the edge of the moon now.

703
00:41:00,593 --> 00:41:03,290
The solar corona.

704
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,131
The sky is lit all the way
around the moon,

705
00:41:05,165 --> 00:41:07,267
quite an eerie sight.

706
00:41:07,300 --> 00:41:11,671
There's a very marked
three dimensional aspect

707
00:41:11,705 --> 00:41:14,441
of having the sun's corona
coming from behind the moon

708
00:41:14,474 --> 00:41:15,875
the way it is.

709
00:41:15,942 --> 00:41:18,645
It's a view worth
the price of the trip.

710
00:41:22,882 --> 00:41:28,540
Mother Earth is 206,059
nautical miles behind.

711
00:41:28,121 --> 00:41:31,191
Coming up on the lunar orbit
insertion burn,

712
00:41:31,224 --> 00:41:33,493
in which the spacecraft
will start

713
00:41:33,526 --> 00:41:36,963
its initial orbit
around the moon.

714
00:41:36,996 --> 00:41:40,333
The maneuver will slow the
spacecraft down considerably

715
00:41:40,367 --> 00:41:41,835
from its present velocity.

716
00:41:41,868 --> 00:41:43,403
And it should
come from behind

717
00:41:43,470 --> 00:41:46,390
the east face of the moon
33 minutes later.

718
00:41:52,178 --> 00:41:53,780
Yeah, the moon is there, boy,

719
00:41:53,847 --> 00:41:57,550
in all its splendor.

720
00:41:57,584 --> 00:42:00,387
Hello, moon,
how's your old backside?

721
00:42:03,156 --> 00:42:04,758
All your systems
are looking good,

722
00:42:04,824 --> 00:42:05,592
going around the corner.

723
00:42:05,658 --> 00:42:07,293
We'll see you
on the other side, over.

724
00:42:09,162 --> 00:42:13,266
Loss of signal as Apollo 11
goes behind the moon.

725
00:42:13,333 --> 00:42:15,935
Servo power 1 to AC1.

726
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,737
- 2 to AC 2.
- 2 to AC 2.

727
00:42:17,771 --> 00:42:19,239
Translational control power on.

728
00:42:19,272 --> 00:42:21,641
Translational
control power is on.

729
00:42:21,708 --> 00:42:22,842
Hand controller
number 2 armed.

730
00:42:22,876 --> 00:42:25,450
Signal hand controller
number 2 is armed.

731
00:42:29,182 --> 00:42:30,517
99.

732
00:42:30,550 --> 00:42:32,452
Proceed.

733
00:42:32,519 --> 00:42:34,354
Got B mode.

734
00:42:34,387 --> 00:42:35,288
Burning, we're looking good.

735
00:42:35,355 --> 00:42:37,323
- A.
- Here comes B... B,

736
00:42:37,390 --> 00:42:38,758
I mean, thrust A mark.

737
00:42:38,792 --> 00:42:39,826
Got them both?

738
00:42:39,893 --> 00:42:41,995
Okay, now what's
your chamber pressure?

739
00:42:42,620 --> 00:42:43,530
It's good.

740
00:42:43,563 --> 00:42:44,798
It's 95.

741
00:42:44,864 --> 00:42:46,900
PLUGS is oscillating around.

742
00:43:08,288 --> 00:43:09,756
Okay, ball valves closed,

743
00:43:09,789 --> 00:43:11,591
(indistinct) barber poles.

744
00:43:11,624 --> 00:43:12,792
That was a beautiful burn.

745
00:43:12,826 --> 00:43:14,427
God damn, I guess.

746
00:43:14,461 --> 00:43:15,829
170 by 60.

747
00:43:15,895 --> 00:43:17,970
Like gangbusters!

748
00:43:17,130 --> 00:43:18,164
Whoo!

749
00:43:22,936 --> 00:43:27,407
30 seconds from
acquisition time.

750
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:29,109
Well, I have to vote
with the 10 crew,

751
00:43:29,142 --> 00:43:31,277
that thing is brown.

752
00:43:31,311 --> 00:43:32,178
Sure is.

753
00:43:32,245 --> 00:43:33,790
Looks tan to me.

754
00:43:33,113 --> 00:43:34,280
But when I first saw it

755
00:43:34,314 --> 00:43:35,982
at that other sun angle,

756
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:37,550
it really looked gray.

757
00:43:37,617 --> 00:43:39,719
The more sun angle you get...

758
00:43:39,786 --> 00:43:42,455
More brown with
increasing sun angle.

759
00:43:42,489 --> 00:43:43,790
God, that's a big beauty.

760
00:43:43,823 --> 00:43:46,793
Gigantic crater, look at
the mountain going around it.

761
00:43:46,826 --> 00:43:48,228
My gosh, they're monsters.

762
00:43:48,294 --> 00:43:50,300
That is a big mother
over here, too.

763
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:50,864
- Whoo!
- Get another picture

764
00:43:50,930 --> 00:43:53,666
- of that big fella.
- Yeah.

765
00:43:53,700 --> 00:43:55,635
Look at those craters in a row.

766
00:43:55,668 --> 00:43:58,380
You see them right...
going right out there?

767
00:43:58,104 --> 00:43:59,806
There it is,
it's coming up!

768
00:43:59,839 --> 00:44:01,207
- What?
- The Earth.

769
00:44:01,274 --> 00:44:02,342
- See it?
- Yeah.

770
00:44:02,375 --> 00:44:03,343
Beautiful!

771
00:44:03,376 --> 00:44:05,845
Right over the LM.

772
00:44:09,783 --> 00:44:12,318
Apollo 11, Apollo 11,

773
00:44:12,352 --> 00:44:13,860
this is Houston,
do you read?

774
00:44:13,153 --> 00:44:14,320
Yeah, we sure do, Houston.

775
00:44:14,354 --> 00:44:16,489
LOI 1 burn
just nominal as all get out

776
00:44:16,523 --> 00:44:18,925
and everything
looking good!

777
00:44:18,992 --> 00:44:20,360
It was like perfect.

778
00:44:20,393 --> 00:44:23,630
Delta-Tig zero,
burn time 5:57...

779
00:44:23,663 --> 00:44:27,701
60.9 by 169.9.

780
00:44:27,734 --> 00:44:29,969
That burn report
was by Neil Armstrong.

781
00:44:30,300 --> 00:44:31,171
Roger, we copy you.

782
00:44:31,204 --> 00:44:33,540
The spacecraft is looking good
to us on telemetry.

783
00:44:33,573 --> 00:44:36,943
Apollo 11
on its first lunar revolution.

784
00:44:37,100 --> 00:44:38,278
You got a good view there, Neil?

785
00:44:38,311 --> 00:44:39,412
Yeah, I sure do.

786
00:44:39,479 --> 00:44:40,413
Boy, it's beautiful out there,
isn't it?

787
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:41,348
...TPI approach.

788
00:44:41,381 --> 00:44:42,582
Man, this is really something,

789
00:44:42,649 --> 00:44:43,850
you ought to look at this,

790
00:44:43,883 --> 00:44:45,752
you want to watch our approach
into the landing site,

791
00:44:45,752 --> 00:44:48,221
you got to watch it
right through this window.

792
00:44:48,254 --> 00:44:50,590
We're coming over...
we just passed Mount Marilyn,

793
00:44:50,657 --> 00:44:53,893
we're coming up
on the Maskelyne series here,

794
00:44:53,927 --> 00:44:55,610
straight out ahead.

795
00:44:55,950 --> 00:44:56,963
80 hours, 48 minutes now

796
00:44:57,300 --> 00:44:59,566
into the flight
of Apollo 11.

797
00:44:59,599 --> 00:45:02,469
Astronaut Charles Duke
has arrived on the scene.

798
00:45:02,535 --> 00:45:03,570
- Hey, Dave?
- Yeah?

799
00:45:03,603 --> 00:45:05,638
What put us
four minutes ahead?

800
00:45:05,705 --> 00:45:07,907
We arrived at the moon
four minutes early.

801
00:45:07,941 --> 00:45:10,110
Speaks well for the booster.

802
00:45:10,176 --> 00:45:11,711
Well, no sh...

803
00:45:13,413 --> 00:45:15,548
Ah, 11,
that really winds things up

804
00:45:15,582 --> 00:45:17,784
as far as we're concerned
on the ground for the evening.

805
00:45:17,851 --> 00:45:21,187
We're ready to go to bed
and get a little sleep, over.

806
00:45:21,221 --> 00:45:22,689
Yeah, we're about to join you.

807
00:45:22,722 --> 00:45:23,823
Rog.

808
00:45:29,629 --> 00:45:32,298
This is of course
the great day for mankind

809
00:45:32,365 --> 00:45:34,701
when we leave
our Planet Earth

810
00:45:34,734 --> 00:45:36,836
and set foot
on the moon.

811
00:45:36,903 --> 00:45:40,407
So on this historic day,
Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin

812
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,476
are in their lunar module,
in their spacesuits.

813
00:45:43,543 --> 00:45:47,130
On this next pass,
they are preparing to undock.

814
00:45:48,715 --> 00:45:51,510
Both spacecraft looking
very good at this time.

815
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:53,553
The following revolution,
revolution 13,

816
00:45:53,586 --> 00:45:56,322
Armstrong and Aldrin,
they will undock

817
00:45:56,389 --> 00:45:58,958
from the Command
and Service Module,

818
00:45:58,992 --> 00:46:00,393
from which point
the powered descent

819
00:46:00,427 --> 00:46:03,430
to the lunar surface
will be initiated.

820
00:46:03,463 --> 00:46:08,134
APOLLO 11, Houston,
we are go for undocking, over.

821
00:46:08,168 --> 00:46:09,969
Roger, understand.

822
00:46:12,939 --> 00:46:15,410
We're all set
when you are, Mike.

823
00:46:16,343 --> 00:46:17,844
Okay, here you go.

824
00:46:17,911 --> 00:46:19,379
See ya.

825
00:46:23,283 --> 00:46:24,818
Looks like a good sep.

826
00:46:29,220 --> 00:46:31,691
The Eagle's undocked.

827
00:46:31,758 --> 00:46:33,827
The Eagle has wings.

828
00:46:33,860 --> 00:46:35,628
Looking good.

829
00:46:35,662 --> 00:46:36,796
Testing.

830
00:46:38,498 --> 00:46:40,330
There you go,
one minute till Tig.

831
00:46:40,100 --> 00:46:42,168
You guys take care.

832
00:46:42,202 --> 00:46:43,370
See you later.

833
00:46:50,877 --> 00:46:52,178
Okay, all flight controllers.

834
00:46:52,212 --> 00:46:54,514
Go/No Go for powered descent.

835
00:46:54,547 --> 00:46:55,515
- RETRO.
- Go.

836
00:46:55,548 --> 00:46:56,383
- FIDO.

00:46:59,853 --> 00:47:00,687
- EECOM.
- Go.

842
00:47:00,720 --> 00:47:02,220
- Surgeon.
- Go.

843
00:47:02,550 --> 00:47:04,858
CAPCOM, we're go
for powered descent.

844
00:47:04,891 --> 00:47:06,259
Eagle, Houston, if you read,

845
00:47:06,326 --> 00:47:07,794
you're go for powered descent.

846
00:47:07,827 --> 00:47:08,895
Over.

847
00:47:10,697 --> 00:47:12,298
Descent armed.

848
00:47:15,235 --> 00:47:17,170
Altitude light's on.

849
00:47:17,203 --> 00:47:19,305
(indistinct) proceed.

850
00:47:19,339 --> 00:47:21,374
Proceed.

851
00:47:21,408 --> 00:47:24,440
One. Zero.

852
00:47:24,770 --> 00:47:25,845
Ignition. Ten percent.

853
00:47:28,748 --> 00:47:30,160
Eagle, we got you now.

854
00:47:30,500 --> 00:47:31,251
It's looking good, over.

855
00:47:33,530 --> 00:47:34,721
Okay, rate of descent
is looking good.

856
00:47:34,754 --> 00:47:38,425
Eagle, Houston, everything's
looking good here, over.

857
00:47:38,491 --> 00:47:39,959
Roger, copy.

858
00:47:40,260 --> 00:47:41,995
Houston, we're getting
a little fluctuation

859
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,198
in the AC voltage now.

860
00:47:45,231 --> 00:47:46,533
Roger.

861
00:47:46,566 --> 00:47:47,801
- It's okay, Flight.
- Stand by.

862
00:47:47,834 --> 00:47:49,536
- It's okay.
- Looking good to us.

863
00:47:49,569 --> 00:47:52,906
You're still looking good
at coming up on three minutes.

864
00:47:52,939 --> 00:47:57,444
Okay, we went by
the three-minute point early.

865
00:47:57,510 --> 00:47:59,245
We're long.

866
00:47:59,279 --> 00:48:02,480
Our position checks downrange
show us to be a little long.

867
00:48:02,820 --> 00:48:03,583
Roger, copy.

868
00:48:03,616 --> 00:48:05,185
He thinks you're
a little bit long downrange.

869
00:48:05,218 --> 00:48:06,619
That's right.
I think we confirmed that.

870
00:48:06,619 --> 00:48:09,389
- We confirmed that.
- Rog.

871
00:48:09,422 --> 00:48:12,826
Altitude rate looks
right down the groove.

872
00:48:12,892 --> 00:48:15,929
Roger, about three seconds long.

873
00:48:15,962 --> 00:48:17,464
Rolling over.

874
00:48:20,900 --> 00:48:22,969
Okay, all flight controllers,
I'm going around the horn.

875
00:48:22,969 --> 00:48:24,571
Okay, now watch
that signal strength.

876
00:48:24,604 --> 00:48:26,706
Make your Go/No Gos based on the
data you had prior to LOS.

877
00:48:26,740 --> 00:48:28,708
I see we got it back.
Give you another few seconds.

878
00:48:28,742 --> 00:48:29,943
We're yawing, Flight.

879
00:48:29,976 --> 00:48:30,977

CAPCOM, we're go
to continue PDI.

888
00:48:39,419 --> 00:48:40,820
Eagle, Houston, you are go.

889
00:48:40,887 --> 00:48:43,723
The ED Batts are go
at four minutes.

890
00:48:43,757 --> 00:48:45,625
Did you get that, TELCOM?
ED Batts are go.

891
00:48:45,658 --> 00:48:47,260
You are go to continue
powered descent,

892
00:48:47,293 --> 00:48:50,530
you are go to continue
powered descent.

893
00:48:50,597 --> 00:48:52,332
And Eagle, Houston.
We had data dropout.

894
00:48:52,399 --> 00:48:53,433
You're still looking good.

895
00:48:53,466 --> 00:48:55,101
Looks good, Flight, looks good.

896
00:48:55,135 --> 00:48:57,671
Houston, you're looking
at our Delta H.

897
00:48:57,737 --> 00:48:59,139
Program alert.

898
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:03,877
It's a 1202.

899
00:49:03,943 --> 00:49:05,311
1202.

900
00:49:05,345 --> 00:49:07,981
1202 alarm.

901
00:49:08,140 --> 00:49:09,849
- 1202.
- What's that?

902
00:49:09,916 --> 00:49:11,518
1202 alarm.

903
00:49:11,584 --> 00:49:14,154
It's executive overflow,
if it does not occur again,

904
00:49:14,187 --> 00:49:15,288
we're fine.

905
00:49:15,321 --> 00:49:16,723
It has not occurred again.

906
00:49:16,790 --> 00:49:19,659
Okay, we're go, continue.

907
00:49:19,693 --> 00:49:22,328
Give us a reading
on the 1202 program alarm.

908
00:49:22,362 --> 00:49:24,130
We're go.

909
00:49:24,164 --> 00:49:26,866
Roger, we got you,
we're go on that alarm.

910
00:49:30,437 --> 00:49:32,405
Roger.

911
00:49:32,472 --> 00:49:35,942
Same alarm and it appears to
come up when we have a 16/68 up.

912
00:49:35,975 --> 00:49:39,646
6 plus 25. Throttle down.
6 plus 25. Throttle down.

913
00:49:42,782 --> 00:49:44,918
Throttle down on time.

914
00:49:44,984 --> 00:49:46,619
You can feel it in here
when it throttles down.

915
00:49:46,653 --> 00:49:48,388
Okay all flight controllers,
Go/No Go for landing.

916
00:49:48,388 --> 00:49:49,155

925
00:49:56,229 --> 00:49:58,565
Houston, you're go for landing,
over.

926
00:49:58,631 --> 00:50:01,101
Roger, understand,
go for landing, 3,000 feet.

927
00:50:01,167 --> 00:50:02,669
Program alarm.

928
00:50:04,504 --> 00:50:06,373
- 1201.
- 1201.

929
00:50:06,406 --> 00:50:09,442
- 1201 alarm.
- Same type, we're go, Flight.

930
00:50:09,509 --> 00:50:10,510
We're go.

931
00:50:10,543 --> 00:50:12,120
Pretty rocky area.

932
00:50:12,450 --> 00:50:13,130
Attitude hold.

933
00:50:13,460 --> 00:50:14,581
Okay, att hold.

934
00:50:14,647 --> 00:50:16,182
100 feet,
three and a half down.

935
00:50:16,216 --> 00:50:17,484
Think we better be quiet,
Flight.

936
00:50:17,517 --> 00:50:19,850
Rog.

937
00:50:19,152 --> 00:50:22,489
Okay, the only call-outs
from now on will be fuel.

938
00:50:22,522 --> 00:50:25,910
Stand by for 60.

939
00:50:25,158 --> 00:50:26,626
- 60.
- 60 seconds.

940
00:50:26,693 --> 00:50:28,795
60 seconds.

941
00:50:28,862 --> 00:50:30,363
Lights on.

942
00:50:32,399 --> 00:50:35,502
60 feet down, two and a half.

943
00:50:35,535 --> 00:50:37,270
Okay, 55 feet.

944
00:50:37,337 --> 00:50:40,106
Okay, looks like
a good area here.

945
00:50:40,173 --> 00:50:42,442
It's looking good,
down a half.

946
00:50:44,277 --> 00:50:46,379
Two forward, forward.

947
00:50:47,947 --> 00:50:49,749
Looks good.

948
00:50:49,783 --> 00:50:51,584
Forty feet down,
two and a half.

949
00:50:51,618 --> 00:50:53,720
Picking up some dust.

950
00:50:53,753 --> 00:50:55,121
30 feet, two and a half down.

951
00:50:55,188 --> 00:50:57,457
- 30.
- 30 seconds.

952
00:50:57,524 --> 00:50:59,626
Four forward,
drifting to the right a little.

953
00:50:59,693 --> 00:51:01,895
20 feet, down a half.

954
00:51:01,928 --> 00:51:04,531
Drifting forward
just a little bit.

955
00:51:04,564 --> 00:51:05,665
Light.

956
00:51:08,468 --> 00:51:09,936
Contact light.

957
00:51:11,438 --> 00:51:13,473
- Shutdown.
- Okay, engine stop.

958
00:51:13,540 --> 00:51:14,741
ACA out of descent.

959
00:51:14,774 --> 00:51:15,942
Out of descent. Auto.

960
00:51:15,975 --> 00:51:17,110
Mode control both to auto.

961
00:51:17,143 --> 00:51:19,279
Descent Engine Command Override,
off.

962
00:51:19,312 --> 00:51:21,114
Engine Arm, off.

963
00:51:21,147 --> 00:51:22,782
413 is in.

964
00:51:22,816 --> 00:51:23,950
The arm is off.

965
00:51:34,928 --> 00:51:37,297
We copy you down, Eagle.

966
00:51:37,330 --> 00:51:40,834
Houston, ah.

967
00:51:40,900 --> 00:51:42,369
Tranquility base here.

968
00:51:42,435 --> 00:51:44,204
The Eagle has landed.

969
00:51:45,839 --> 00:51:47,640
Roger, Tranquility.

970
00:51:47,674 --> 00:51:49,420
We copy you on the ground.

971
00:51:49,109 --> 00:51:51,770
You got a bunch of guys
about to turn blue.

972
00:51:51,111 --> 00:51:53,313
We're breathing again.
Thanks a lot.

973
00:51:54,914 --> 00:51:56,983
Thank you.

974
00:51:57,170 --> 00:51:58,785
Very smooth touchdown.

975
00:52:50,904 --> 00:52:54,874
Houston, that may have seemed
like a very long final phase.

976
00:52:54,908 --> 00:52:56,843
The auto targeting
was taking us

977
00:52:56,876 --> 00:52:59,479
right into a football field
sized crater,

978
00:52:59,512 --> 00:53:03,116
and it required us flying
manually over the rock field

979
00:53:03,183 --> 00:53:05,518
to find
a reasonably good area.

980
00:53:05,552 --> 00:53:08,188
Roger, we copy.
It was beautiful from here.

981
00:53:08,221 --> 00:53:11,240
Be advised there are lots
of smiling faces in this room

982
00:53:11,570 --> 00:53:12,559
and all over the world. Over.

983
00:53:15,829 --> 00:53:18,765
We have some heart rates
for Neil Armstrong

984
00:53:18,832 --> 00:53:21,301
during that powered descent
to the lunar surface.

985
00:53:21,368 --> 00:53:23,236
At the time the burn
was initiated,

986
00:53:23,269 --> 00:53:25,605
Armstrong's heart rate was 110.

987
00:53:25,672 --> 00:53:27,807
At touchdown
on the lunar surface

988
00:53:27,874 --> 00:53:29,876
he had a heart rate of 156,

989
00:53:29,909 --> 00:53:32,512
and the heart rate
is now in the 90s.

990
00:53:32,545 --> 00:53:35,915
We do not have biomedical data
on Buzz Aldrin.

991
00:53:37,283 --> 00:53:40,860
The hatch is coming open.

992
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:45,358
Hatch reported coming open at
109 hours, 8 minutes, 5 seconds.

993
00:53:45,392 --> 00:53:47,894
Okay, Houston, I'm on the porch.

994
00:53:48,862 --> 00:53:50,230
Roger, Neil.

995
00:53:51,965 --> 00:53:54,601
Okay, everything's nice
and straight in here.

996
00:53:54,634 --> 00:53:57,300
Okay, can you pull the door open
a little more?

997
00:54:01,307 --> 00:54:04,110
Houston, this is Neil,
radio check.

998
00:54:04,144 --> 00:54:06,579
Neil, this is Houston,
loud and clear.

999
00:54:06,613 --> 00:54:08,515
Break, break.
Buzz, this is Houston.

1000
00:54:08,581 --> 00:54:13,119
Radio check and verify
TV circuit breaker in.

1001
00:54:13,153 --> 00:54:15,922
Roger, TV circuit breaker's in.

1002
00:54:15,955 --> 00:54:18,124
And read you loud and clear.

1003
00:54:18,158 --> 00:54:19,192
Roger.

1004
00:54:29,269 --> 00:54:32,138
And we're getting
a picture on the TV.

1005
00:54:32,172 --> 00:54:34,274
You got a good picture, huh?

1006
00:54:34,307 --> 00:54:36,409
There's a great deal
of contrast in it

1007
00:54:36,443 --> 00:54:39,312
and currently it's upside down
in our monitor

1008
00:54:39,346 --> 00:54:41,614
but we can make out
a fair amount of detail.

1009
00:54:45,819 --> 00:54:47,654
Okay.

1010
00:54:47,687 --> 00:54:50,190
I'm at the foot of the ladder.

1011
00:54:50,256 --> 00:54:55,950
The LM footpads
are only depressed

1012
00:54:55,128 --> 00:54:59,199
in the surface
about one or two inches,

1013
00:54:59,265 --> 00:55:05,705
although the surface appears
to be very, very fine grained

1014
00:55:05,772 --> 00:55:09,509
as you get close to it,
it's almost like a powder.

1015
00:55:09,542 --> 00:55:11,811
Ground mass is very fine.

1016
00:55:23,723 --> 00:55:25,992
Okay, I'm going to step off
the LM now.

1017
00:55:34,834 --> 00:55:39,839
That's one small step for man.

1018
00:55:39,873 --> 00:55:43,410
One giant leap for mankind.

1019
00:55:49,549 --> 00:55:53,453
I only go in
a small fraction of an inch,

1020
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:57,557
maybe an eighth of an inch,
but I can see the footprints

1021
00:55:57,590 --> 00:56:00,527
of my boots and the treads

1022
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:04,597
in the fine, sandy particles.

1023
00:56:07,867 --> 00:56:10,537
Neil, this is Houston,
we're copying.

1024
00:56:10,570 --> 00:56:14,400
There seems to be no difficulty
in moving around

1025
00:56:14,740 --> 00:56:16,910
as we suspected.

1026
00:56:16,943 --> 00:56:21,810
It's even perhaps easier
than the simulations of 1/6th G

1027
00:56:21,114 --> 00:56:23,583
that we performed

1028
00:56:23,616 --> 00:56:27,787
in various simulations
on the ground.

1029
00:56:27,854 --> 00:56:31,257
Descent engine did not leave
a crater of any size,

1030
00:56:31,291 --> 00:56:35,295
it has about one foot clearance
on the ground.

1031
00:56:35,362 --> 00:56:37,297
I can see some evidence

1032
00:56:37,364 --> 00:56:39,966
of rays emanating
from the descent engine,

1033
00:56:40,330 --> 00:56:42,869
but a very
insignificant amount.

1034
00:56:45,380 --> 00:56:47,974
Roger, Neil, we're reading you
loud and clear.

1035
00:56:48,410 --> 00:56:49,976
We see you're getting
some pictures

1036
00:56:50,430 --> 00:56:53,446
and the contingency sample.

1037
00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,515
It's interesting.
It's a very soft surface

1038
00:56:55,582 --> 00:56:57,317
but here and there
where I plug

1039
00:56:57,384 --> 00:56:59,986
with the contingency sample
collector,

1040
00:57:00,530 --> 00:57:02,422
I run into very hard surface

1041
00:57:02,455 --> 00:57:05,859
but it appears to be
a very cohesive material

1042
00:57:05,925 --> 00:57:09,329
of the same sort.

1043
00:57:09,396 --> 00:57:11,531
I'll try to get a rock in here.

1044
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,602
That looks beautiful
from here, Neil.

1045
00:57:15,635 --> 00:57:17,971
It has a stark beauty
all its own.

1046
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:20,373
It's like much
of the high desert

1047
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,308
of the United States.

1048
00:57:22,342 --> 00:57:25,445
It's different,
but it's very pretty out here.

1049
00:57:26,913 --> 00:57:28,480
That in the pocket?

1050
00:57:28,114 --> 00:57:30,817
Ah, yeah, push down.

1051
00:57:30,850 --> 00:57:33,860
Got it?

1052
00:57:33,119 --> 00:57:35,689
No, it's not all the way in.
Push it.

1053
00:57:38,358 --> 00:57:39,826
There you go.

1054
00:57:44,497 --> 00:57:47,330
Contingency sample
is in the pocket.

1055
00:57:47,100 --> 00:57:51,237
My oxygen is 81%.

1056
00:57:51,304 --> 00:57:54,874
I have no flags
and I'm in minimum flow.

1057
00:57:54,941 --> 00:57:57,911
Okay, I got the camera going
at one frame a second.

1058
00:57:57,977 --> 00:57:59,312
Ready for me to come out?

1059
00:57:59,346 --> 00:58:00,547
Yeah, just stand by a second,

1060
00:58:00,613 --> 00:58:03,830
I'll move this
over the handrail.

1061
00:58:03,149 --> 00:58:04,617
How far are my feet from the...

1062
00:58:04,651 --> 00:58:06,720
Okay, you're right
at the edge of the porch.

1063
00:58:06,786 --> 00:58:11,257
Okay, now I want to back up
and partially close the hatch...

1064
00:58:11,324 --> 00:58:15,161
making sure not to lock it
on my way out.

1065
00:58:15,195 --> 00:58:17,430
Particularly good thought.

1066
00:58:17,497 --> 00:58:19,366
That's our home
for the next couple hours.

1067
00:58:19,399 --> 00:58:21,334
We want to take good care of it.

1068
00:58:21,368 --> 00:58:24,504
You've got three more steps,
and then a long one.

1069
00:58:32,780 --> 00:58:33,179
Beautiful view.

1070
00:58:33,213 --> 00:58:34,381
Isn't that something?

1071
00:58:34,414 --> 00:58:36,683
Magnificent sight out here.

1072
00:58:36,716 --> 00:58:39,586
Magnificent desolation.

1073
00:58:39,652 --> 00:58:43,723
Okay, Houston, I'm going
to change lenses on you.

1074
00:58:43,757 --> 00:58:45,492
Roger, Neil.

1075
00:58:45,525 --> 00:58:47,270
We're getting a new picture,

1076
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,462
you can tell it's
a longer focal length lens.

1077
00:58:49,529 --> 00:58:52,198
For those who haven't read
the plaque,

1078
00:58:52,232 --> 00:58:55,135
we'll read the plaque
that's on the front landing gear

1079
00:58:55,201 --> 00:58:56,603
of this LM:

1080
00:58:56,669 --> 00:58:58,772
Here men from the planet Earth

1081
00:58:58,838 --> 00:59:00,874
first set foot upon the moon.

1082
00:59:00,907 --> 00:59:04,144
July 1969 A.D.

1083
00:59:04,210 --> 00:59:07,800
We came in peace
for all mankind.

1084
00:59:07,113 --> 00:59:10,583
Neil Armstrong getting ready
to move the TV camera now

1085
00:59:10,617 --> 00:59:12,952
out to its panorama position.

1086
00:59:14,521 --> 00:59:15,922
I got plenty of cable.

1087
00:59:15,955 --> 00:59:18,910
You got plenty, plenty more.

1088
00:59:24,964 --> 00:59:27,133
Okay, that looks
good there, Neil.

1089
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:29,402
Okay.

1090
00:59:29,436 --> 00:59:32,305
One hour, seven minutes
time expended.

1091
00:59:32,372 --> 00:59:35,608
Buzz is erecting
the solar wind experiment now.

1092
00:59:35,642 --> 00:59:37,977
Some of these small
depressions...

1093
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,130
through the upper surface
of the soil

1094
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:42,415
and about five or six inches
of bay

1095
00:59:42,449 --> 00:59:45,318
breaks loose and moves

1096
00:59:45,385 --> 00:59:47,821
as if it were caked
on the surface

1097
00:59:47,887 --> 00:59:50,123
when in fact it really isn't.

1098
00:59:50,156 --> 00:59:52,792
Houston, Columbia
on high gain, over.

1099
00:59:52,826 --> 00:59:54,294
Columbia, this is Houston,

1100
00:59:54,327 --> 00:59:57,970
reading you loud and clear,
over.

1101
00:59:57,130 --> 00:59:59,232
Yeah, reading you loud
and clear. How's it going?

1102
00:59:59,265 --> 01:00:01,601
Roger, the EVA
is progressing beautifully.

1103
01:00:01,634 --> 01:00:03,770
They're setting up the flag now.

1104
01:00:03,803 --> 01:00:05,205
Great.

1105
01:00:05,271 --> 01:00:06,973
I guess you're about
the only person around

1106
01:00:07,700 --> 01:00:09,776
that doesn't have
TV coverage of the scene.

1107
01:00:09,809 --> 01:00:11,945
How is the quality of the TV?

1108
01:00:11,978 --> 01:00:13,680
Oh, it's beautiful, Mike,
it really is.

1109
01:00:13,747 --> 01:00:15,515
They've got the flag up now
and you can see

1110
01:00:15,582 --> 01:00:20,687
the stars and stripes
from the lunar surface.

1111
01:00:20,754 --> 01:00:22,789
Beautiful, just beautiful.

1112
01:00:25,291 --> 01:00:27,394
Ah, Neil and Buzz.

1113
01:00:27,460 --> 01:00:30,697
The President of the United
States is in his Office now

1114
01:00:30,764 --> 01:00:34,734
and would like to say
a few words to you, over.

1115
01:00:34,801 --> 01:00:36,369
That would be an honor.

1116
01:00:36,436 --> 01:00:37,804
Go ahead, Mr. President.

1117
01:00:37,837 --> 01:00:40,740
This is Houston out.

1118
01:00:40,807 --> 01:00:42,308
Hello, Neil and Buzz.

1119
01:00:42,342 --> 01:00:44,377
I'm talking to you by telephone

1120
01:00:44,444 --> 01:00:46,713
from the Oval Room
at the White House.

1121
01:00:46,780 --> 01:00:50,417
And this certainly has to be
the most historic telephone call

1122
01:00:50,483 --> 01:00:52,385
ever made from the White House.

1123
01:00:52,452 --> 01:00:55,155
I just can't tell you
how proud we all are

1124
01:00:55,188 --> 01:00:56,423
of what you have done.

1125
01:00:56,489 --> 01:00:58,258
For every American,
this has to be

1126
01:00:58,324 --> 01:01:00,930
the proudest day
of our lives.

1127
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:01,928
And for people
all over the world,

1128
01:01:01,995 --> 01:01:04,300
because of what you have done,

1129
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:08,234
the heavens have become
a part of man's world.

1130
01:01:08,301 --> 01:01:12,205
And as you talk to us
from the Sea of Tranquility,

1131
01:01:12,238 --> 01:01:14,607
it inspires us
to redouble our efforts

1132
01:01:14,674 --> 01:01:18,545
to bring peace
and tranquility to Earth.

1133
01:01:18,578 --> 01:01:22,515
For one priceless moment,
in the whole history of man,

1134
01:01:22,549 --> 01:01:25,919
all the people on this Earth
are truly one.

1135
01:01:25,985 --> 01:01:28,254
One in their pride
in what you have done;

1136
01:01:28,321 --> 01:01:30,390
and one in our prayers

1137
01:01:30,423 --> 01:01:33,426
that you will return safely
to Earth.

1138
01:01:33,493 --> 01:01:34,894
Thank you, Mr. President.

1139
01:01:34,928 --> 01:01:38,431
It's a great honor and privilege
for us to be here,

1140
01:01:38,498 --> 01:01:41,340
representing not only
the United States

1141
01:01:41,670 --> 01:01:44,471
but men of peace
of all nations,

1142
01:01:44,537 --> 01:01:46,740
men with interests
and a curiosity

1143
01:01:46,773 --> 01:01:48,742
and with the vision
for the future.

1144
01:01:48,775 --> 01:01:52,912
It's an honor for us to be able
to participate here today.

1145
01:01:58,685 --> 01:02:00,620
Neil's been on the surface
an hour now,

1146
01:02:00,687 --> 01:02:02,889
Buzz not quite,
20 minutes less than that.

1147
01:02:02,922 --> 01:02:07,127
Heart rates on both crewmen
averaging between 90 and 100.

1148
01:02:07,193 --> 01:02:10,830
I don't note any abnormalities
in the LM.

1149
01:02:10,897 --> 01:02:12,599
Quads seem to be in good shape,

1150
01:02:12,632 --> 01:02:15,935
the primary and secondary struts
are in good shape,

1151
01:02:15,969 --> 01:02:18,805
antennas are all in place,

1152
01:02:18,872 --> 01:02:21,908
there's no evidence
of a problem underneath.

1153
01:02:21,941 --> 01:02:25,345
The SEQ bay contains
the scientific experiments

1154
01:02:25,412 --> 01:02:27,113
to be left
on the surface of the moon.

1155
01:02:27,147 --> 01:02:29,820
Have you got us
a good area picked out?

1156
01:02:29,115 --> 01:02:31,170
Buzz Aldrin carrying
the two experiments.

1157
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:32,686
Straight out on that rise
out there

1158
01:02:32,752 --> 01:02:34,454
is probably as good as any.

1159
01:02:34,487 --> 01:02:37,123
I'm going to have to get on the
other side of this rock here.

1160
01:02:37,157 --> 01:02:40,427
The laser reflector
is installed,

1161
01:02:40,460 --> 01:02:42,195
and the bubble's level

1162
01:02:42,262 --> 01:02:45,832
and the alignment
appears to be good.

1163
01:02:45,899 --> 01:02:47,534
They've been on
their life support systems

1164
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:48,968
2 hours and 25 minutes.

1165
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,871
Houston, I have
the seismic experiment

1166
01:02:51,938 --> 01:02:55,275
flipped over now
and I'm aligning it with the sun

1167
01:02:55,308 --> 01:03:00,460
and all parts of the solar array
are clear of the ground now.

1168
01:03:00,113 --> 01:03:03,830
Buzz Aldrin is collecting
a core tube sample.

1169
01:03:03,116 --> 01:03:04,851
It almost looks wet.

1170
01:03:04,918 --> 01:03:07,120
Got it! Sampled.

1171
01:03:07,153 --> 01:03:08,321
Neil, this is Houston.

1172
01:03:08,355 --> 01:03:10,490
After you've got the core tubes

1173
01:03:10,523 --> 01:03:12,525
and the solar wind,

1174
01:03:12,592 --> 01:03:15,328
anything else
that you can throw into the box

1175
01:03:15,362 --> 01:03:16,963
would be acceptable.

1176
01:03:16,996 --> 01:03:19,532
Houston, we've got about
I'd say 20 pounds

1177
01:03:19,599 --> 01:03:23,837
of carefully selected,
if not documented, samples.

1178
01:03:23,870 --> 01:03:26,106
Houston, roger, well done, out.

1179
01:03:32,112 --> 01:03:34,647
Anything more
before I head on up, Bruce?

1180
01:03:34,681 --> 01:03:37,384
Negative,
head on up the ladder, Buzz.

1181
01:03:37,450 --> 01:03:39,786
Adios, amigos.

1182
01:03:39,819 --> 01:03:41,488
Transferring
the sample containers

1183
01:03:41,521 --> 01:03:42,989
into the LM cabin now.

1184
01:03:43,230 --> 01:03:47,494
Unofficial time off the surface
at 111:37:32.

1185
01:03:47,527 --> 01:03:52,265
Okay, the hatch is closed
and latched and verified secure.

1186
01:03:52,332 --> 01:03:54,670
Okay.

1187
01:03:54,134 --> 01:03:56,102
And we'd like to say

1188
01:03:56,169 --> 01:04:00,600
from all of us
down here in Houston

1189
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:02,909
and really from all of us
in all the countries

1190
01:04:02,976 --> 01:04:05,712
in the entire world,
we think that you've done

1191
01:04:05,745 --> 01:04:07,547
a magnificent job
up there today.

1192
01:04:07,580 --> 01:04:08,581
Over.

1193
01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:11,551
Thank you very much.

1194
01:04:11,584 --> 01:04:13,920
It's been a long day.

1195
01:04:13,987 --> 01:04:15,588
Yes indeed,
get some rest there,

1196
01:04:15,655 --> 01:04:17,490
and have at it tomorrow.

1197
01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:31,471
Not since Adam has any human
known such solitude

1198
01:04:31,538 --> 01:04:33,707
as Mike Collins is experiencing

1199
01:04:33,740 --> 01:04:36,443
during the 47 minutes
of each lunar revolution

1200
01:04:36,509 --> 01:04:39,779
when he's behind the moon,
while he waits for his comrades

1201
01:04:39,846 --> 01:04:42,882
to soar with Eagle
from Tranquility Base,

1202
01:04:42,916 --> 01:04:44,818
and rejoin him
for the trip back to earth.

1203
01:04:44,884 --> 01:04:47,870
Collins, with the help
of flight controllers here

1204
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:48,488
in Mission Control Center,

1205
01:04:48,555 --> 01:04:50,223
has kept
the Command Module systems

1206
01:04:50,256 --> 01:04:53,426
going pocketa pocketa pocketa.

1207
01:04:53,460 --> 01:04:57,731
Columbia, Columbia,
good morning from Houston.

1208
01:04:57,764 --> 01:05:01,368
How's the black team today?
All primed and rarin' to go?

1209
01:05:01,401 --> 01:05:03,470
Ah, you betcha there, Mike.

1210
01:05:03,536 --> 01:05:05,372
Going to keep you
a little busy here...

1211
01:05:05,405 --> 01:05:07,440
soon as we get
the state vector in,

1212
01:05:07,474 --> 01:05:12,120
we'd like you to go ahead
and do a P52, option 3.

1213
01:05:12,780 --> 01:05:14,681
And then when you come on around
the other side there,

1214
01:05:14,748 --> 01:05:20,286
we'll give you some landmark
tracking information on 130.

1215
01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:23,560
All right, fine, understand.
Thank you.

1216
01:05:23,890 --> 01:05:24,657
Tranquility Base, Houston.

1217
01:05:24,724 --> 01:05:26,292
How was the resting
standing up there?

1218
01:05:26,326 --> 01:05:29,329
Did you get a chance to curl up
on the engine can?

1219
01:05:29,396 --> 01:05:30,397
Ah, roger.

1220
01:05:30,430 --> 01:05:31,664
Neil has rigged himself

1221
01:05:31,731 --> 01:05:32,932
a really good hammock

1222
01:05:32,966 --> 01:05:34,467
with a waist tether

1223
01:05:34,501 --> 01:05:37,103
and he's been lying
on the ascent engine cover

1224
01:05:37,137 --> 01:05:39,390
and I curled up
on the floor. Over.

1225
01:05:39,105 --> 01:05:40,807
Ah, roger. Copy, Buzz.

1226
01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:43,443
Our science support room
here in Mission Control Center

1227
01:05:43,476 --> 01:05:45,512
reports receiving
continuous data

1228
01:05:45,578 --> 01:05:47,647
from the passive
seismic experiment

1229
01:05:47,681 --> 01:05:51,151
placed on the lunar surface last
night by the Apollo 11 crew...

1230
01:05:51,184 --> 01:05:53,987
recorded the astronauts'
footsteps on the moon

1231
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,322
and will probably receive
its strongest signal

1232
01:05:56,356 --> 01:06:00,493
when the ascent engine ignites
and starts Eagle on its way

1233
01:06:00,527 --> 01:06:03,363
into lunar orbit
and rendezvous with Columbia.

1234
01:06:03,430 --> 01:06:04,898
Tranquility Base, Houston.

1235
01:06:04,964 --> 01:06:06,166
Go ahead.

1236
01:06:06,199 --> 01:06:08,100
Ah, roger.
Just a reminder here,

1237
01:06:08,340 --> 01:06:09,502
we want to make sure you leave

1238
01:06:09,536 --> 01:06:13,340
the rendezvous radar
circuit breakers pulled.

1239
01:06:13,373 --> 01:06:14,874
Okay.

1240
01:06:14,941 --> 01:06:17,577
Eagle and Columbia,
this is the backup crew.

1241
01:06:17,644 --> 01:06:20,113
Congratulations
on yesterday's performance

1242
01:06:20,146 --> 01:06:22,916
and our prayers are with you
for the rendezvous, over.

1243
01:06:22,982 --> 01:06:25,251
- Thank you, Jim.
- Thank you, Jim.

1244
01:06:30,156 --> 01:06:32,225
Almost 5,000 pounds
of propellant

1245
01:06:32,292 --> 01:06:34,661
will be run through
the ascent engine

1246
01:06:34,694 --> 01:06:36,162
on the ascent burn

1247
01:06:36,196 --> 01:06:38,565
which will place Eagle
back into lunar orbit

1248
01:06:38,631 --> 01:06:40,660
and following that,

1249
01:06:40,133 --> 01:06:42,869
the rendezvous sequence
consummate,

1250
01:06:42,902 --> 01:06:47,574
completed with the docking
at 128 hours approximately.

1251
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:50,543
Flight Operations Director,
Chris Kraft,

1252
01:06:50,577 --> 01:06:53,413
commented that some 500 million
people around the world

1253
01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:57,830
were helping push Eagle off
the moon and back into orbit.

1254
01:06:57,150 --> 01:06:59,853
Flight director Glynn Lunney
is polling the various positions

1255
01:06:59,886 --> 01:07:02,622
here in the control room
on their readiness.

1256
01:07:02,689 --> 01:07:04,691
- FIDO, status.
- Got it all, Flight, good to go.

1257
01:07:04,724 --> 01:07:06,526
- GUIDANCE.
- Waiting for GUIDANCE steering

1258
01:07:06,559 --> 01:07:07,727
at two minutes.

1259
01:07:07,761 --> 01:07:09,195
- CONTROL.
- We're go, Flight.

1260
01:07:09,229 --> 01:07:10,397
- TELCOM.
- Go, Flight.

1261
01:07:10,430 --> 01:07:11,965
- Surgeon.
- Go, Flight.

1262
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:14,340
We see it, Flight. Looks good.

1263
01:07:14,670 --> 01:07:16,936
Tranquility Base, Houston.

1264
01:07:17,300 --> 01:07:18,271
Roger, go ahead.

1265
01:07:18,338 --> 01:07:20,440
Roger, Eagle's looking

1266
01:07:20,507 --> 01:07:22,208
real fine to us down here.

1267
01:07:22,242 --> 01:07:24,444
And you're clear for takeoff.

1268
01:07:24,511 --> 01:07:25,578
Roger, understand.

1269
01:07:25,612 --> 01:07:27,480
We're number one on the runway.

1270
01:07:33,530 --> 01:07:35,822
GUIDANCE reports
both navigation systems on Eagle

1271
01:07:35,889 --> 01:07:37,900
are looking good.

1272
01:07:41,461 --> 01:07:44,431
Nine, eight, seven,

1273
01:07:44,464 --> 01:07:46,299
six, five,

1274
01:07:46,366 --> 01:07:49,602
abort stage, engine arm,
ascent, proceed.

1275
01:07:56,420 --> 01:07:57,911
- The Eagle has wings.
- Stand by for pitchover.

1276
01:07:57,944 --> 01:07:59,679
Pitching over.

1277
01:07:59,746 --> 01:08:01,247
Very smooth.

1278
01:08:08,955 --> 01:08:10,857
We're going right down U.S. 1.

1279
01:08:12,625 --> 01:08:14,327
Roger.

1280
01:08:14,394 --> 01:08:16,296
Not very much thruster activity.

1281
01:08:16,329 --> 01:08:18,565
FLIGHT, FIDO, PNGS MSFIN,
we're looking good.

1282
01:08:18,598 --> 01:08:21,935
- Okay, mighty fine.
- Go, both systems.

1283
01:08:21,968 --> 01:08:25,171
30 seconds, Flight.

1284
01:08:25,238 --> 01:08:26,806
700, 150 up. Beautiful.

1285
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:28,308
- TELCOM.
- Go.

1286
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:33,179
Eagle, Houston, you're still
looking mighty fine.

1287
01:08:33,246 --> 01:08:37,851
Roger, good agreement in Delta-V
to go in both AGS and PNGS.

1288
01:08:37,917 --> 01:08:39,520
Roger.

1289
01:08:40,754 --> 01:08:43,890
All three data sources
are agreeing quite closely here.

1290
01:08:43,957 --> 01:08:46,359
Eagle, Houston.
Aft Omni, low-bit rate,

1291
01:08:46,426 --> 01:08:50,296
and we'll see you
at 127 plus 51.

1292
01:09:08,348 --> 01:09:13,353
127 hours, 39 minutes,
39.2 seconds.

1293
01:09:13,386 --> 01:09:14,988
This is the start time

1294
01:09:15,210 --> 01:09:17,557
for a series
of velocity match maneuvers

1295
01:09:17,624 --> 01:09:20,326
to bring Eagle in with Columbia.

1296
01:09:36,376 --> 01:09:40,580
Uh, Houston, the AGS has
a Delta-H of 15.5

1297
01:09:40,647 --> 01:09:44,284
and a maneuver of 51.3.

1298
01:09:44,351 --> 01:09:46,853
Roger, we copy.

1299
01:09:46,886 --> 01:09:51,725
As the two vehicles come around
on the 26th lunar revolution,

1300
01:09:51,758 --> 01:09:54,694
Mike Collins aboard Columbia
is spring loaded

1301
01:09:54,728 --> 01:09:58,465
to do what is called
a mirror image maneuver.

1302
01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:21,721
Okay, we're about
seven feet a second

1303
01:10:21,755 --> 01:10:23,890
coming in at you.

1304
01:10:40,440 --> 01:10:41,608
Eagle, Columbia.

1305
01:10:41,641 --> 01:10:43,977
I've got 470 now for R-dot,

1306
01:10:44,440 --> 01:10:45,278
and I just broke lock.

1307
01:10:45,311 --> 01:10:47,681
Could you hold silence
for a few seconds here

1308
01:10:47,747 --> 01:10:49,482
while I re-acquire?

1309
01:11:11,304 --> 01:11:12,839
Columbia has reacquired you.

1310
01:11:14,808 --> 01:11:17,177
Okay, Mike, I'll try
to get in position here

1311
01:11:17,243 --> 01:11:20,313
and then you got it.

1312
01:11:20,347 --> 01:11:21,881
Eagle, Columbia's
starting to maneuver

1313
01:11:21,948 --> 01:11:23,650
to TPI attitude.

1314
01:11:23,683 --> 01:11:24,818
Okay.

1315
01:11:36,262 --> 01:11:38,698
Okay, I got it from here.

1316
01:11:46,172 --> 01:11:47,774
Looks good, Mike.

1317
01:11:59,686 --> 01:12:01,654
(indistinct), okay.

1318
01:12:03,990 --> 01:12:07,394
Okay, we're all yours,
Columbia.

1319
01:12:07,460 --> 01:12:09,729
Communications are
somewhat scratchy.

1320
01:12:09,796 --> 01:12:12,532
Columbia and Eagle
now reunited

1321
01:12:12,565 --> 01:12:16,102
to become Apollo 11 again.

1322
01:12:16,169 --> 01:12:19,239
Apollo 11, Houston, about
a minute and a half to LOS,

1323
01:12:19,305 --> 01:12:20,407
you're looking great.

1324
01:12:20,473 --> 01:12:22,375
It's been a mighty fine day.

1325
01:12:22,409 --> 01:12:24,377
Boy, you're not kidding.

1326
01:12:24,411 --> 01:12:26,460
Armstrong and Aldrin
transferring back

1327
01:12:26,790 --> 01:12:28,381
to the Command Module
with Mike Collins.

1328
01:12:28,415 --> 01:12:30,750
Houston, this is Columbia
reading you loud and clear.

1329
01:12:30,817 --> 01:12:33,186
We're all three back inside,
the hatch is installed,

1330
01:12:33,219 --> 01:12:34,921
we're running a pressure
check-leak check.

1331
01:12:34,988 --> 01:12:36,823
Everything's going well.

1332
01:12:36,856 --> 01:12:39,426
Roger. How's it feel up there
to have some company?

1333
01:12:39,492 --> 01:12:41,270
Damn good, I'll tell ya.

1334
01:12:41,610 --> 01:12:42,529
I bet.

1335
01:12:42,562 --> 01:12:43,997
I bet you'd almost be
talking to yourself up there

1336
01:12:44,300 --> 01:12:46,499
after 10 revs or so.

1337
01:12:46,533 --> 01:12:48,268
Ah, no.
It's a happy home up here,

1338
01:12:48,334 --> 01:12:51,471
it'd be nice to have
100 million Americans up here.

1339
01:12:51,538 --> 01:12:53,730
Rog.

1340
01:12:53,106 --> 01:12:55,308
They were with you in spirit
anyway, at least that many.

1341
01:12:55,342 --> 01:12:56,943
Thank you, sir.

1342
01:12:57,100 --> 01:12:58,978
And Apollo 11, Houston.

1343
01:12:59,450 --> 01:13:01,548
All your systems
look real good to us.

1344
01:13:01,581 --> 01:13:04,684
We would like you
to jettison Eagle.

1345
01:13:04,718 --> 01:13:07,887
You're go for power arm
and you're go for jettison.

1346
01:13:07,921 --> 01:13:10,156
Okay.

1347
01:13:11,758 --> 01:13:14,794
There she goes.
She was a good one.

1348
01:13:14,861 --> 01:13:15,995
Roger dodger.

1349
01:13:16,620 --> 01:13:18,631
We got Eagle looking good.

1350
01:13:18,698 --> 01:13:20,567
It's holding cabin pressure
and it picked up

1351
01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:23,803
about two feet per second
from that jettison.

1352
01:13:23,870 --> 01:13:26,906
The crew jettisoned the LM
at 130 hours 30 minutes.

1353
01:13:26,940 --> 01:13:30,744
We're now 10 seconds away
from Trans-Earth Injection.

1354
01:13:30,777 --> 01:13:33,413
They will burn their service
propulsion system engine

1355
01:13:33,446 --> 01:13:35,181
for 2 minutes, 28 seconds,

1356
01:13:35,248 --> 01:13:38,485
to start them
on their way back to earth.

1357
01:13:38,551 --> 01:13:41,121
Apollo 11, Houston.
one minute to LOS.

1358
01:13:41,154 --> 01:13:42,789
The trans-earth
injection maneuver

1359
01:13:42,822 --> 01:13:44,758
will be performed
on backside of the moon

1360
01:13:44,791 --> 01:13:47,327
at the beginning
of the 31st revolution.

1361
01:13:47,394 --> 01:13:50,530
We'll reacquire the spacecraft
on the other side of the moon.

1362
01:13:50,597 --> 01:13:52,599
Hello, Apollo 11. Houston.

1363
01:13:52,632 --> 01:13:54,340
You're looking good
going over the hill.

1364
01:13:54,670 --> 01:13:55,969
Go sic 'em!

1365
01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:57,871
Thank you, sir.
We'll do it.

1366
01:14:00,173 --> 01:14:02,409
Standby for ullage.

1367
01:14:02,442 --> 01:14:04,177
Ullage.

1368
01:14:05,445 --> 01:14:07,113
Copy.

1369
01:14:18,858 --> 01:14:19,993
Burn!

1370
01:14:20,260 --> 01:14:21,561
- A good one.
- Nice.

1371
01:14:21,628 --> 01:14:23,463
- I got two balls.
- Okay, here come the other two.

1372
01:14:23,496 --> 01:14:27,300
...barber pole, gray,
the other two are on good.

1373
01:14:27,333 --> 01:14:29,569
Man, that feels like g,
doesn't it?

1374
01:14:41,348 --> 01:14:42,515
One minute.

1375
01:14:42,549 --> 01:14:44,984
Chamber pressure's
holding right on 100.

1376
01:14:45,180 --> 01:14:46,886
(indistinct) pressure.

1377
01:14:52,580 --> 01:14:53,593
Gimbals look good.

1378
01:14:53,660 --> 01:14:56,290
Total attitude looks good.

1379
01:14:56,620 --> 01:14:59,733
Rates are damped out
a little bit.

1380
01:15:07,741 --> 01:15:09,776
Standing by for engine off.

1381
01:15:09,843 --> 01:15:12,612
It should be shut down now.

1382
01:15:12,679 --> 01:15:13,747
Okay.

1383
01:15:13,813 --> 01:15:15,782
Shutdown.

1384
01:15:15,849 --> 01:15:17,684
Beautiful.

1385
01:15:17,717 --> 01:15:18,952
Beautiful burn.

1386
01:15:19,190 --> 01:15:20,860
SPS, I love you!

1387
01:15:20,153 --> 01:15:22,989
You are a jewel!

1388
01:15:23,230 --> 01:15:24,691
AOS.

1389
01:15:24,724 --> 01:15:27,127
And there's the cue,
we have acquisition of signal.

1390
01:15:29,262 --> 01:15:31,264
Halleluiah!

1391
01:15:31,331 --> 01:15:32,980
Thank you, Charlie boy.

1392
01:15:32,165 --> 01:15:33,266
Looking good here.

1393
01:15:33,333 --> 01:15:34,367
That was a beautiful burn.

1394
01:15:34,401 --> 01:15:36,703
- They don't come any finer.
- Rog.

1395
01:15:36,736 --> 01:15:38,838
Tell 'em to open up
the LRL doors, Charlie.

1396
01:15:38,872 --> 01:15:41,841
Roger, we got you coming home.

1397
01:15:48,248 --> 01:15:51,840
Let's get some music...
how about these tapes?

1398
01:17:56,343 --> 01:18:00,246
Hey, this should be
getting larger.

1399
01:18:00,313 --> 01:18:04,684
And if it is, it's the place
we're coming home to.

1400
01:18:04,718 --> 01:18:08,121
No matter where you travel,
it's always nice to get home.

1401
01:18:08,188 --> 01:18:12,250
We concur, 11... we'll be
happy to have you back.

1402
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:25,705
Apollo 11 now 94,961
nautical miles from Earth.

1403
01:18:25,739 --> 01:18:27,273
Re-entry is scheduled to begin

1404
01:18:27,340 --> 01:18:30,910
18 hours, 18 minutes
and 12 seconds.

1405
01:18:30,944 --> 01:18:33,790
How's old Flight, Bruce?

1406
01:18:33,113 --> 01:18:35,810
Did he ever let you go
get a cup of coffee

1407
01:18:35,115 --> 01:18:37,784
while we were over
on the backside?

1408
01:18:37,851 --> 01:18:39,719
Things have been going
pretty smoothly down here.

1409
01:18:39,753 --> 01:18:43,156
He's really not that hard
to get along with.

1410
01:18:43,223 --> 01:18:45,692
Ah, he must be mellowing.

1411
01:18:45,725 --> 01:18:48,128
Well, we've only got two
of them back here right now.

1412
01:18:48,194 --> 01:18:50,597
The next item scheduled
on the flight plan

1413
01:18:50,630 --> 01:18:53,299
is a television transmission.

1414
01:18:53,366 --> 01:18:56,569
You may be interested in knowing
that Jan and the children,

1415
01:18:56,603 --> 01:18:59,305
and Pat and the youngsters
and Andy Aldrin

1416
01:18:59,372 --> 01:19:03,743
are down here in the viewing
room watching this evening.

1417
01:19:03,777 --> 01:19:04,911
Oh, we're glad to hear that.

1418
01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:09,683
You have good S-band
signal strength now, Houston?

1419
01:19:09,749 --> 01:19:11,851
Okay, you're coming through
loud and clear now, 11,

1420
01:19:11,918 --> 01:19:14,487
with your patch.

1421
01:19:14,554 --> 01:19:18,910
This has been far more
than three men

1422
01:19:18,124 --> 01:19:21,327
on a voyage to the moon.

1423
01:19:21,394 --> 01:19:24,497
We feel that
this stands as a symbol

1424
01:19:24,564 --> 01:19:28,201
of the insatiable curiosity
of all mankind

1425
01:19:28,268 --> 01:19:30,637
to explore the unknown.

1426
01:19:30,670 --> 01:19:35,175
This operation is somewhat like
the periscope of a submarine.

1427
01:19:35,241 --> 01:19:37,444
All you see is the three of us.

1428
01:19:37,477 --> 01:19:39,279
But beneath the surface

1429
01:19:39,312 --> 01:19:41,548
are thousands and thousands
of others.

1430
01:19:41,614 --> 01:19:44,617
We'd like to give
a special thanks

1431
01:19:44,651 --> 01:19:50,323
to all those Americans
who built this spacecraft,

1432
01:19:50,357 --> 01:19:52,392
who did the construction,

1433
01:19:52,459 --> 01:19:54,928
design, the tests,

1434
01:19:54,961 --> 01:20:00,967
and put their hearts
and all their abilities

1435
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:04,537
into those crafts.

1436
01:20:04,604 --> 01:20:09,420
To those people, tonight
we give a special thank you.

1437
01:20:09,109 --> 01:20:12,746
And to all the other people
that are listening

1438
01:20:12,812 --> 01:20:15,480
and watching tonight,

1439
01:20:15,115 --> 01:20:16,383
God bless you.

1440
01:20:16,449 --> 01:20:18,518
Goodnight from Apollo 11.

1441
01:20:28,561 --> 01:20:30,597
Weather in the recovery area:

1442
01:20:30,663 --> 01:20:34,934
Skies will be partly cloudy,
six-foot sea,

1443
01:20:35,100 --> 01:20:37,704
temperature near 80 degrees.

1444
01:20:37,737 --> 01:20:43,430
This landing area is
215 miles to the northeast

1445
01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:45,311
from the original landing area,

1446
01:20:45,345 --> 01:20:47,380
it moved because
of thundershowers

1447
01:20:47,414 --> 01:20:50,417
in the original area.

1448
01:20:50,483 --> 01:20:53,920
Apollo 11's distance now
is 3,000 nautical miles,

1449
01:20:53,987 --> 01:20:58,391
velocity 26,685 feet per second.

1450
01:20:58,425 --> 01:21:00,860
In the next 20 minutes,
Apollo 11 will add

1451
01:21:00,894 --> 01:21:03,730
almost 10,000 feet per second
to that figure.

1452
01:21:03,763 --> 01:21:07,734
Entry at 75 statute miles.

1453
01:21:07,767 --> 01:21:11,237
Beginning blackout
at 62 statute miles.

1454
01:21:11,271 --> 01:21:15,410
And main shoot deployment
10,500 feet.

1455
01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:34,961
And 11, Houston.

1456
01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,497
Weather's still holding
real fine in the recovery area,

1457
01:21:37,564 --> 01:21:40,467
looks like it's about 1500
scattered, high scattered,

1458
01:21:40,533 --> 01:21:43,470
and still
three to six foot waves

1459
01:21:43,536 --> 01:21:45,171
The air part of it sounds good.

1460
01:21:45,238 --> 01:21:46,406
Roger.

1461
01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:48,341
The Earth is really
getting bigger up here

1462
01:21:48,408 --> 01:21:51,611
and of course
we see a crescent.

1463
01:21:51,644 --> 01:21:53,179
Apollo 11 lined up
right down the middle

1464
01:21:53,213 --> 01:21:55,281
of the entry corridor.

1465
01:21:55,315 --> 01:21:58,251
We're a minute and 45
seconds from entry.

1466
01:21:58,284 --> 01:22:02,188
Blackout will begin
18 seconds after entry.

1467
01:22:02,255 --> 01:22:03,757
Apollo 11, Houston.

1468
01:22:03,790 --> 01:22:05,580
You're still looking
mighty fine here,

1469
01:22:05,910 --> 01:22:08,128
you're cleared for landing.

1470
01:22:08,161 --> 01:22:09,929
Ah, we appreciate that Ron.
Thank you.

1471
01:22:09,963 --> 01:22:12,632
Rog. Gear's down and locked.

1472
01:22:12,665 --> 01:22:14,134
Roger.

1473
01:22:14,167 --> 01:22:16,903
Guidance officer reports
the Command Module computer

1474
01:22:16,936 --> 01:22:20,206
looks good and the guidance
and navigation system is go.

1475
01:22:20,273 --> 01:22:21,641
And 11, Houston.

1476
01:22:21,675 --> 01:22:22,909
You're going over the hill
there shortly,

1477
01:22:22,942 --> 01:22:25,779
you're looking
mighty fine to us.

1478
01:22:25,812 --> 01:22:27,280
See you later.

1479
01:22:33,853 --> 01:22:34,888
There's the horizon.

1480
01:22:34,954 --> 01:22:36,790
Got the horizon now.

1481
01:23:25,505 --> 01:23:28,708
And beginning of blackout
approximately 17 seconds

1482
01:23:28,742 --> 01:23:31,978
after entry interface
into the atmosphere.

1483
01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:37,830
400,000 feet or approximately
85 miles above the Earth.

1484
01:23:43,223 --> 01:23:46,760
At blackout,
we were showing velocity

1485
01:23:56,870 --> 01:23:59,239
(indistinct) LOS.

1486
01:23:59,272 --> 01:24:02,409
Redstone LOS blackout.

1487
01:24:02,442 --> 01:24:04,770
Roger, you have arrived...

1488
01:24:04,110 --> 01:24:07,280
Apollo 11,
Houston through ARIA.

1489
01:24:10,830 --> 01:24:14,187
We're looking
for your (indistinct).

1490
01:24:14,220 --> 01:24:17,223
Apollo 11,
Houston through ARIA.

1491
01:24:33,807 --> 01:24:36,443
Apollo 11,
Houston through ARIA 4.

1492
01:24:53,793 --> 01:24:56,930
Okay, CAPCOM, one last call here
and we'll have to give up

1493
01:24:56,963 --> 01:25:00,967
and let the recovery people
have it.

1494
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:04,371
Apollo 11, Houston through ARIA.

1495
01:25:06,806 --> 01:25:09,943
Apollo 11, Apollo 11,
this is Hornet, Hornet, over.

1496
01:25:09,976 --> 01:25:13,130
This is Apollo 11,
we read you loud and clear.

1497
01:25:13,790 --> 01:25:18,118
Our position, 133016915.

1498
01:25:18,151 --> 01:25:19,886
There they are!

1499
01:25:27,270 --> 01:25:29,262
The condition of crew, over.

1500
01:25:29,295 --> 01:25:31,998
The condition of crew...

1501
01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:34,834
4,000-3500 feet
on the way down.

1502
01:25:34,868 --> 01:25:40,840
Latitude, longitude,
13,30; 169,15... over.

1503
01:25:40,874 --> 01:25:43,900
Hornet roger, copy out.

1504
01:25:43,430 --> 01:25:45,679
Hornet reports spacecraft
right on target point.

1505
01:25:45,712 --> 01:25:46,846
Splashdown!

1506
01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:48,982
Hornet, splashdown.

1507
01:25:49,150 --> 01:25:52,185
Hornet copies.

1508
01:25:52,218 --> 01:25:57,323
This is SWIM 1, the
Command Module is at stable 1.

1509
01:25:57,357 --> 01:25:59,920
Hornet roger.

1510
01:25:59,159 --> 01:26:02,195
Stable 1 now, stable 1.

1511
01:26:06,660 --> 01:26:07,434
Our condition is
all three excellent.

1512
01:26:07,467 --> 01:26:10,203
We're just fine,
take your time.

1513
01:26:10,236 --> 01:26:13,106
That was Mike Collins reporting
the crew is excellent.

1514
01:26:13,173 --> 01:26:14,507
Doing all right,

1515
01:26:14,541 --> 01:26:15,909
third astronaut
is in the net

1516
01:26:15,975 --> 01:26:18,845
and on his way up.

1517
01:26:18,878 --> 01:26:21,181
Clear the Command Module.

1518
01:26:26,319 --> 01:26:29,456
Everybody's in the hatch
and finally in the helicopter.

1519
01:26:33,860 --> 01:26:35,261
This is Recovery 1.

1520
01:26:35,328 --> 01:26:37,300
I have three astronauts
aboard,

1521
01:26:37,630 --> 01:26:42,102
switching power and frequency,
power and frequency.

1522
01:26:42,168 --> 01:26:44,370
Recovery 1, Hornet.
Understand Big Swimmer

1523
01:26:44,700 --> 01:26:45,605
has completed his
decontamination

1524
01:26:45,672 --> 01:26:47,440
of the Command Module.

1525
01:26:53,847 --> 01:26:56,383
The elevator will
take Recovery 1

1526
01:26:56,416 --> 01:26:59,419
down to the hangar deck
where the crew will enter

1527
01:26:59,452 --> 01:27:01,988
the Mobile Quarantine facility.

1528
01:27:02,550 --> 01:27:05,910
This control center becoming
jammed with people.

1529
01:27:05,125 --> 01:27:06,626
We've never seen
this many people

1530
01:27:06,693 --> 01:27:09,262
in the control center
at one time before.

1531
01:27:12,565 --> 01:27:14,467
The Apollo 11 plaque
has been hung

1532
01:27:14,534 --> 01:27:17,103
in the Mission Control Center,

1533
01:27:17,137 --> 01:27:19,172
a replica of the crew patch.

1534
01:27:46,466 --> 01:27:51,504
And the flags are waving
and the cigars are being lit up,

1535
01:27:51,571 --> 01:27:54,207
and clear across
the big board in front

1536
01:27:54,274 --> 01:28:00,447
is President John F. Kennedy's
message to Congress

1537
01:28:00,480 --> 01:28:02,949
from May 1961.

1538
01:28:05,585 --> 01:28:08,655
Even though I realize
that this is in some measure

1539
01:28:08,688 --> 01:28:11,391
an act of faith and vision,

1540
01:28:11,458 --> 01:28:13,560
for we do not now know

1541
01:28:13,626 --> 01:28:15,595
what benefits await us.

1542
01:28:15,628 --> 01:28:18,965
But if I were to say,
my fellow citizens,

1543
01:28:18,998 --> 01:28:21,601
that we shall send to the moon,

1544
01:28:21,634 --> 01:28:27,407
240,000 miles away from
the control station in Houston,

1545
01:28:27,474 --> 01:28:31,811
a giant rocket
more than 300 feet tall,

1546
01:28:31,845 --> 01:28:33,847
fitted together with
a precision better

1547
01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:36,116
than the finest watch,

1548
01:28:36,149 --> 01:28:39,520
carrying all the equipment
needed for propulsion,

1549
01:28:39,119 --> 01:28:40,387
guidance, control,

1550
01:28:40,453 --> 01:28:43,890
communications,
food, and survival,

1551
01:28:43,957 --> 01:28:46,159
on an untried mission,

1552
01:28:46,192 --> 01:28:48,828
to an unknown celestial body,

1553
01:28:48,862 --> 01:28:51,564
and then return it
safely to Earth,

1554
01:28:51,631 --> 01:28:53,833
reentering the atmosphere
at speeds of over

1555
01:28:53,867 --> 01:28:56,870
25,000 miles per hour,

1556
01:28:56,903 --> 01:29:00,373
causing heat about half that
of the temperature of the sun,

1557
01:29:00,407 --> 01:29:02,742
almost as hot
as it is here today,

1558
01:29:02,809 --> 01:29:06,880
and do all this,
and do all this and do it right,

1559
01:29:06,913 --> 01:29:10,417
and do it first,
before this decade is out,

1560
01:29:10,483 --> 01:29:12,385
then we must be bold.

1561
01:30:33,933 --> 01:30:35,635
Man's first trip to the moon,

1562
01:30:35,668 --> 01:30:37,203
a magnificent
eight-day voyage

1563
01:30:37,270 --> 01:30:39,506
spanning time and space
and history,

1564
01:30:39,572 --> 01:30:42,308
ended today when
three American explorers

1565
01:30:42,342 --> 01:30:45,945
brought their small ship
down safely in the Pacific.

1566
01:30:45,979 --> 01:30:47,881
Apollo 11 astronauts
Neil Armstrong,

1567
01:30:47,947 --> 01:30:49,716
Edwin Aldrin,
and Michael Collins

1568
01:30:49,783 --> 01:30:52,485
landed their spacecraft
southwest of Hawaii

1569
01:30:52,519 --> 01:30:54,854
at ten minutes of one,
Eastern time,

1570
01:30:54,921 --> 01:30:56,790
nine miles from
the recovery ship

1571
01:30:56,823 --> 01:30:58,658
and two miles off target.

1572
01:30:58,692 --> 01:31:00,660
After donning
protective clothing,

1573
01:31:00,694 --> 01:31:02,362
the three astronauts
were airlifted

1574
01:31:02,429 --> 01:31:04,300
to the carrier Hornet,

1575
01:31:04,970 --> 01:31:06,966
and transferred to
a special isolation chamber.

1576
01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:09,200
They'll be quarantined
18 days

1577
01:31:09,350 --> 01:31:11,705
while scientists determine
if they've brought back

1578
01:31:11,771 --> 01:31:14,107
any dangerous lunar organisms.

1579
01:31:14,140 --> 01:31:16,876
Their flight climaxed
centuries of dreaming

1580
01:31:16,943 --> 01:31:19,846
and months and years
of planning and training.

1581
01:31:36,629 --> 01:31:39,320
I'd like to take this
opportunity particularly

1582
01:31:39,650 --> 01:31:41,301
to thank all those of you
I see out there

1583
01:31:41,334 --> 01:31:43,370
who are my gracious hosts

1584
01:31:43,403 --> 01:31:45,710
here in the lunar
receiving laboratory.

1585
01:31:45,138 --> 01:31:48,675
And I can't say that
I would choose to spend

1586
01:31:48,708 --> 01:31:50,377
a couple of weeks like that,

1587
01:31:50,410 --> 01:31:53,913
but I'm very glad
that we got the opportunity

1588
01:31:53,980 --> 01:31:55,382
to complete the mission.
