1
00:01:08,835 --> 00:01:11,338
Twenty seconds to drop.

2
00:01:12,605 --> 00:01:14,174
Arm switch lite check.

3
00:01:15,842 --> 00:01:17,877
Brakes out, check.

4
00:01:20,847 --> 00:01:22,115
What's your mixing chambers?

5
00:01:22,449 --> 00:01:25,685
Real rough up here, fluctuating
a half degree on each side.

6
00:01:25,885 --> 00:01:28,210
I see that.

7
00:01:29,622 --> 00:01:30,924
Ten seconds.

8
00:01:42,602 --> 00:01:45,972
Good on track, 15 seconds.
Huh?

9
00:03:15,995 --> 00:03:17,997
Give us a visual estimate
of your location.

10
00:03:20,333 --> 00:03:23,470
Okay. 140,000 feet.
On your way down.

11
00:03:31,644 --> 00:03:33,747
Approaching 115,000 feet.

12
00:03:34,481 --> 00:03:36,383
Should be regaining
aerodynamic control.

13
00:03:38,651 --> 00:03:39,753
Right turn.

14
00:03:46,893 --> 00:03:49,229
We show you ballooning,
not turning.

15
00:03:57,904 --> 00:04:00,740
Altitude rising.
A lot more right.

16
00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:04,911
Neil, you're bouncing off
the atmosphere.

17
00:04:10,784 --> 00:04:12,852
The altitude's still rising, Neil.

18
00:05:14,347 --> 00:05:16,683
You're gonna have to
stretch out your glide.

19
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,489
You seem to be a tad short.

20
00:05:30,430 --> 00:05:32,165
Stow your flaps down, Neil.

21
00:05:57,624 --> 00:05:59,359
I'm down.

22
00:06:02,228 --> 00:06:04,640
Roger.

23
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,950
You okay?

24
00:06:38,832 --> 00:06:39,866
Yeah.

25
00:06:40,767 --> 00:06:42,102
Okay, Neil.

26
00:06:46,106 --> 00:06:48,174
Kid's a good engineer.

27
00:06:48,441 --> 00:06:50,176
But he's distracted.

28
00:06:50,677 --> 00:06:52,178
He got home, Chuck.

29
00:06:52,278 --> 00:06:54,981
He bounced off the atmosphere and
still figured out how to get home.

30
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,449
Third mishap
this month.

31
00:06:56,549 --> 00:06:58,752
Bikle should ground him
before he hurts himself.

32
00:07:42,950 --> 00:07:44,230
There you go.

33
00:07:44,631 --> 00:07:46,232
It's okay.

34
00:07:46,900 --> 00:07:48,735
It's okay, sweetheart.

35
00:08:04,984 --> 00:08:06,286
What's that?

36
00:08:10,523 --> 00:08:12,920
Look. Who's that?

37
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:20,667
Is that a kite?

38
00:08:22,635 --> 00:08:24,471
Does that fly in the sky?

39
00:08:24,637 --> 00:08:25,638
Yeah.

40
00:08:26,606 --> 00:08:27,974
How?

41
00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:32,712
I see the moon

42
00:08:34,347 --> 00:08:37,450
The moon sees me

43
00:08:38,180 --> 00:08:43,990
Down through the leaves
of the old oak tree

44
00:08:45,158 --> 00:08:51,310
Please let the light that
shines on me

45
00:08:52,866 --> 00:08:57,871
Shine on the one I love

46
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,474
Maybe I should talk to
Dr. Johns about it.

47
00:09:02,242 --> 00:09:03,243
Who?

48
00:09:03,343 --> 00:09:05,145
Dr. Harold Johns.

49
00:09:06,146 --> 00:09:08,515
He developed a procedure
in Saskatchewan.

50
00:09:08,715 --> 00:09:10,550
So you'd go to Canada?

51
00:09:10,717 --> 00:09:12,752
I guess I would take
some time off.

52
00:09:13,386 --> 00:09:14,821
Why don't you
talk to the hospital?

53
00:09:14,988 --> 00:09:16,220
See if the tumor might...

54
00:09:16,890 --> 00:09:18,910
I spoke to them already.

55
00:09:18,558 --> 00:09:21,361
I'm sorry, Neil.
I wish I had more to offer.

56
00:09:21,861 --> 00:09:24,497
That's okay, Jack. Appreciate it.
Of course.

57
00:09:25,398 --> 00:09:27,534
Give my love to June.
You got it.

58
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,703
Okay, bye now.
Bye.

59
00:09:48,621 --> 00:09:50,757
Now, who made that?
You or Grace?

60
00:09:50,857 --> 00:09:51,925
Grace did.

61
00:09:52,192 --> 00:09:53,893
I'll take it, then.

62
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,795
Thank you.
Thank you.

63
00:09:57,764 --> 00:09:59,232
He was asking after you.

64
00:09:59,299 --> 00:10:01,267
That about Gemini?

65
00:10:02,135 --> 00:10:05,271
They're looking for pilots with a
solid background in engineering.

66
00:10:06,239 --> 00:10:09,709
Well, maybe once
Karen starts feeling better.

67
00:10:10,543 --> 00:10:13,113
Just, you know, I wouldn't
wanna move her until then.

68
00:10:15,782 --> 00:10:18,118
Well, it would be nice
to keep you around.

69
00:10:18,818 --> 00:10:20,620
- Enjoy the casserole.
- Thank you.

70
00:10:20,820 --> 00:10:22,550
You're welcome.

71
00:10:24,224 --> 00:10:25,558
Joe.
Hey, Jan.

72
00:10:25,759 --> 00:10:27,560
You, uh, hanging in?

73
00:10:27,761 --> 00:10:29,629
Oh, you know.

74
00:10:31,564 --> 00:10:33,500
It's nice of you to come by.

75
00:10:33,733 --> 00:10:35,301
Of course.

76
00:10:38,605 --> 00:10:40,473
Night, now.

77
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,255
Dad, wanna come play?

78
00:12:06,226 --> 00:12:08,228
I should, uh...

79
00:12:09,262 --> 00:12:11,531
I have to help your mother.

80
00:13:39,786 --> 00:13:41,788
I thought I might go to work.

81
00:13:47,270 --> 00:13:48,762
Okay.

82
00:14:06,980 --> 00:14:08,415
They're gonna use
VTOL technology.

83
00:14:08,448 --> 00:14:10,216
They don't even have it
figured out how to get there yet.

84
00:14:10,216 --> 00:14:11,718
I'm not gonna
waste my time on...

85
00:14:13,386 --> 00:14:14,721
Morning.

86
00:14:16,790 --> 00:14:18,910
Neil.

87
00:14:18,825 --> 00:14:20,960
You can take
a few days off, you know.

88
00:14:22,562 --> 00:14:24,197
I know.

89
00:14:24,731 --> 00:14:28,902
I'm just getting up to speed on
the new delta wing in the UK.

90
00:14:30,837 --> 00:14:32,505
Bikle canceled the trip.

91
00:14:34,374 --> 00:14:38,178
He wants you focused on writing up the
pilot report from your last flight.

92
00:14:45,919 --> 00:14:47,554
Am I grounded, Joe?

93
00:14:50,900 --> 00:14:52,258
Write up the report
on the bounce, okay?

94
00:15:51,551 --> 00:15:53,860
Civilian?

95
00:15:53,753 --> 00:15:56,890
Yeah.
Yeah. Me, too.

96
00:15:56,990 --> 00:15:59,192
Elliot.
Neil.

97
00:16:01,795 --> 00:16:03,129
Tough morning, huh?

98
00:16:03,430 --> 00:16:05,899
I barely lasted two minutes
in that ice bath.

99
00:16:06,766 --> 00:16:08,668
Of course, I suppose
NASA's more interested

100
00:16:08,768 --> 00:16:10,303
in the psychological reaction.

101
00:16:11,805 --> 00:16:17,177
Well, I think I made it pretty
clear that I thought it was cold.

102
00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:21,614
Armstrong.

103
00:16:23,983 --> 00:16:24,984
Good luck.

104
00:16:25,850 --> 00:16:26,119
And to you, too.

105
00:16:30,990 --> 00:16:32,292
Another egghead.

106
00:16:32,492 --> 00:16:35,610
Neil, we've been chatting
with candidates about the program.

107
00:16:35,328 --> 00:16:38,865
As you know, our decision
to forego direct ascent

108
00:16:38,998 --> 00:16:41,167
in favor of a lunar orbit
rendezvous approach

109
00:16:41,234 --> 00:16:42,535
to the eventual Moon mission

110
00:16:42,635 --> 00:16:44,370
has had a major impact
on Gemini.

111
00:16:44,137 --> 00:16:45,772
Do you have any thoughts
on that decision?

112
00:16:47,340 --> 00:16:50,310
Well, even considering
von Braun's initial criticism,

113
00:16:50,377 --> 00:16:54,514
it seems that the payload saved by
parking the primary vehicle in orbit

114
00:16:54,681 --> 00:16:57,817
and sending a smaller ship
down to the lunar surface

115
00:16:57,884 --> 00:16:59,652
is well worth
the resulting challenges.

116
00:16:59,719 --> 00:17:01,187
What do you see
as the challenges?

117
00:17:01,521 --> 00:17:03,356
Cislunar navigation, for one.

118
00:17:03,423 --> 00:17:04,891
And rendezvous and docking.

119
00:17:05,250 --> 00:17:06,826
Why do you think
spaceflight's important?

120
00:17:09,562 --> 00:17:15,335
I had a few, uh, opportunities in
the X-15 to observe the atmosphere.

121
00:17:16,690 --> 00:17:20,273
It was so thin,
such a small part of the Earth

122
00:17:20,373 --> 00:17:21,641
you could barely
see it at all.

123
00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:24,444
And when you're down here in the
crowd and you look up, it...

124
00:17:25,211 --> 00:17:27,881
It looks pretty big and you don't
think about it too much, but...

125
00:17:29,215 --> 00:17:34,540
When you get a different vantage
point, it changes your perspective.

126
00:17:35,689 --> 00:17:39,926
I don't know what space
exploration will uncover,

127
00:17:40,260 --> 00:17:45,365
but I don't think it'll be exploration
just for the sake of exploration.

128
00:17:45,699 --> 00:17:50,603
I think it'll be more the fact
that it allows us to see things

129
00:17:50,770 --> 00:17:54,641
that maybe we should've seen
a long time ago.

130
00:17:54,841 --> 00:17:59,379
But just haven't
been able to until now.

131
00:18:02,215 --> 00:18:04,317
- Does anyone have anything else?
- Yeah.

132
00:18:04,718 --> 00:18:06,619
Neil, I was sorry to hear
about your daughter.

133
00:18:09,656 --> 00:18:12,392
I'm sorry,
is there a question?

134
00:18:12,625 --> 00:18:13,626
Um...

135
00:18:14,728 --> 00:18:18,465
What I mean is, uh, do
you think it will have an effect?

136
00:18:22,736 --> 00:18:24,971
I think it would be

137
00:18:25,710 --> 00:18:27,807
unreasonable to assume that
it wouldn't have some effect.

138
00:18:30,210 --> 00:18:31,411
All right, Neil.

139
00:18:31,478 --> 00:18:33,279
Thank you. That's fine.

140
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,150
Thank you.
Thank you for your time.

141
00:18:44,691 --> 00:18:46,590
Hello?

142
00:18:47,427 --> 00:18:48,628
Yeah, sure. Neil.

143
00:18:50,263 --> 00:18:52,132
Hello?
Can I go play outside?

144
00:18:52,532 --> 00:18:53,666
Yeah.

145
00:18:55,535 --> 00:18:57,700
Yes, sir.

146
00:18:59,539 --> 00:19:01,107
Thank you, sir.

147
00:19:05,178 --> 00:19:07,130
I got it.

148
00:19:13,653 --> 00:19:15,255
It's a fresh start.

149
00:19:16,990 --> 00:19:18,725
Are you sure?

150
00:19:20,326 --> 00:19:21,661
Yeah.

151
00:19:26,866 --> 00:19:28,340
Hey.

152
00:19:29,336 --> 00:19:30,970
It'll be an adventure.

153
00:19:48,955 --> 00:19:50,857
Since the time
of Jules Verne,

154
00:19:50,957 --> 00:19:54,600
man has imagined
traveling to the Moon.

155
00:19:54,227 --> 00:19:56,196
The old idea
of how to get to the Moon

156
00:19:56,296 --> 00:19:59,532
was to send one spacecraft
all the way there and back.

157
00:19:59,766 --> 00:20:03,690
However, NASA engineers have
developed a modern approach.

158
00:20:03,236 --> 00:20:08,241
Where one rocket contains several ships
that will make the journey together.

159
00:20:08,408 --> 00:20:10,243
Just as Columbus
took a rowboat

160
00:20:10,343 --> 00:20:13,790
from the Santa María
to the shore of the New World.

161
00:20:13,413 --> 00:20:15,915
The astronauts will
take a smaller spacecraft

162
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,190
from the mothership
down to the lunar surface.

163
00:20:19,185 --> 00:20:21,755
When it's time to return,
the smaller craft

164
00:20:21,855 --> 00:20:23,523
will lift off from the surface

165
00:20:23,790 --> 00:20:27,761
and dock with the mothership, which
will then power the crew back to Earth.

166
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,730
Thus, thanks to the brilliant
minds of NASA,

167
00:20:30,797 --> 00:20:33,199
the age-old dream
of going to the Moon

168
00:20:33,333 --> 00:20:35,201
will soon be achieved.

169
00:20:43,977 --> 00:20:46,279
Sputnik, Sputnik 2...

170
00:20:46,546 --> 00:20:48,810
Vostok...

171
00:20:48,181 --> 00:20:49,349
Gagarin.

172
00:20:49,582 --> 00:20:53,253
The Soviets have beaten us at every
single major space accomplishment.

173
00:20:53,486 --> 00:20:55,188
Our program couldn't compete.

174
00:20:55,822 --> 00:20:58,224
So we've chosen to focus
on a job so difficult,

175
00:20:58,291 --> 00:21:00,894
requiring so many
technological developments,

176
00:21:01,361 --> 00:21:04,364
that the Russians are gonna
have to start from scratch.

177
00:21:04,664 --> 00:21:06,199
As will we.

178
00:21:10,670 --> 00:21:12,138
Hi. I'm Pat.
Hi.

179
00:21:12,305 --> 00:21:15,408
Got here about a week before you,
so welcome to the neighborhood.

180
00:21:15,475 --> 00:21:17,811
Oh, that's so nice of you.

181
00:21:17,911 --> 00:21:19,790
I'm Janet.

182
00:21:19,145 --> 00:21:20,980
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.

183
00:21:21,214 --> 00:21:23,950
So, instead of here,
we go...

184
00:21:45,138 --> 00:21:46,139
Here.

185
00:21:46,639 --> 00:21:48,441
That's to scale. Check it.

186
00:21:48,708 --> 00:21:50,110
That's my husband, Ed.

187
00:21:50,176 --> 00:21:52,812
And that's Eddie Junior.
I don't know where Bonnie is.

188
00:21:53,279 --> 00:21:54,781
You've got two?
I do.

189
00:21:55,150 --> 00:21:57,550
I see... Is this your first one?
Oh.

190
00:21:57,650 --> 00:22:00,120
No, no.
We've got a boy, Rick.

191
00:22:00,487 --> 00:22:01,821
How old is he?

192
00:22:01,955 --> 00:22:03,256
He's five and a half.

193
00:22:03,490 --> 00:22:04,724
Oh, we should
get them together.

194
00:22:04,958 --> 00:22:06,426
If we wanna
get this done,

195
00:22:06,626 --> 00:22:09,162
we need to prove that two ships
can find each other in orbit

196
00:22:09,262 --> 00:22:10,964
and dock without crashing.

197
00:22:11,631 --> 00:22:13,833
That's the primary mission
of Project Gemini.

198
00:22:14,267 --> 00:22:15,468
When we think you're ready,

199
00:22:15,535 --> 00:22:18,638
each of you will be assigned
a flight with a specific task.

200
00:22:18,872 --> 00:22:22,308
Only after we master all these
tasks do we move on to Apollo.

201
00:22:22,709 --> 00:22:24,344
Consider trying to land
on the Moon.

202
00:22:24,711 --> 00:22:26,112
It's nice to meet you.
And you, Pat.

203
00:22:26,179 --> 00:22:27,480
Bye.
Bye.

204
00:22:28,481 --> 00:22:29,983
Eddie! Put that down.

205
00:22:30,283 --> 00:22:31,518
Gus...

206
00:22:31,885 --> 00:22:33,219
You got anything to add?

207
00:22:34,354 --> 00:22:35,855
Just do your job.

208
00:22:39,292 --> 00:22:40,694
Almost to scale.

209
00:22:41,194 --> 00:22:45,999
The Multi-Axis Trainer was designed
to replicate roll coupling on three axes.

210
00:22:46,733 --> 00:22:48,768
The kind you might
encounter in space.

211
00:22:50,103 --> 00:22:54,774
The challenge is to stabilize the
machine before you pass out.

212
00:22:55,675 --> 00:22:58,211
First victim, Armstrong.

213
00:24:44,651 --> 00:24:45,852
White, you're up.

214
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,620
Yeah, I got it.

215
00:24:48,210 --> 00:24:49,220
I'm okay.

216
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:53,526
Let's go again.

217
00:25:19,185 --> 00:25:20,754
Oh, ****.

218
00:25:36,670 --> 00:25:38,838
Gentlemen, welcome to
Basic Rocket Physics.

219
00:25:39,239 --> 00:25:41,574
We'll just be covering
the first chapter tonight.

220
00:25:43,176 --> 00:25:45,512
When using a multi-stage
launch vehicle,

221
00:25:45,679 --> 00:25:49,683
it's necessary to determine what the
right sizing is of those stages.

222
00:26:28,555 --> 00:26:29,823
Hi.

223
00:26:29,989 --> 00:26:31,291
Hi.

224
00:26:34,327 --> 00:26:35,428
You okay?

225
00:26:35,795 --> 00:26:37,430
Yeah.

226
00:26:37,497 --> 00:26:40,900
Just thinking about this lecture.
It's kinda neat.

227
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:45,739
What's neat about it?

228
00:26:47,741 --> 00:26:48,775
Well,

229
00:26:49,900 --> 00:26:52,780
it was about how to
rendezvous with the Agena.

230
00:26:52,445 --> 00:26:55,181
If you thrust,
it actually slows you down

231
00:26:55,281 --> 00:26:56,850
because it puts you
into a higher orbit,

232
00:26:56,916 --> 00:26:59,652
so you have to reduce thrust
and drop into a lower orbit

233
00:26:59,819 --> 00:27:01,187
in order to catch up.

234
00:27:01,321 --> 00:27:03,423
It's backwards from what
they teach you as a pilot.

235
00:27:03,490 --> 00:27:07,827
But if you work the math,
it... It follows.

236
00:27:09,662 --> 00:27:10,964
It's kinda neat.

237
00:27:13,299 --> 00:27:14,434
Yeah.

238
00:27:15,100 --> 00:27:16,136
What's funny?

239
00:27:16,336 --> 00:27:18,304
No, it's not funny.
It's just...

240
00:27:21,700 --> 00:27:22,609
It's kinda neat.

241
00:27:46,299 --> 00:27:48,100
Do you remember this?

242
00:27:49,803 --> 00:27:50,970
Yeah.

243
00:27:51,638 --> 00:27:53,540
I'm surprised that
you remember it.

244
00:28:40,687 --> 00:28:41,721
Great. Thank you.

245
00:28:41,855 --> 00:28:43,456
Thank you
for having us.

246
00:28:43,523 --> 00:28:44,858
It's a pleasure.

247
00:28:44,958 --> 00:28:46,359
Carrie.

248
00:28:46,459 --> 00:28:47,961
Here you go.
Would you like some salad?

249
00:28:47,994 --> 00:28:50,663
Thank you. That's a
lovely piano, Pat. Do you play?

250
00:28:50,730 --> 00:28:52,966
Bonnie's taking lessons.
Mmm.

251
00:28:53,166 --> 00:28:55,301
Well, perhaps we'll sing
for our supper.

252
00:28:57,370 --> 00:28:58,571
Neil plays piano?

253
00:28:58,738 --> 00:29:00,573
Neil knows
all kinds of show tunes.

254
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,342
Janet...
Oh, come on.

255
00:29:02,409 --> 00:29:03,943
He was musical director
at his fraternity in college.

256
00:29:03,977 --> 00:29:05,450
Honey...

257
00:29:05,145 --> 00:29:06,980
Yeah, he wrote the musical
for the all-student revue.

258
00:29:07,130 --> 00:29:08,481
I didn't write the music.
Yeah, you did.

259
00:29:08,515 --> 00:29:11,851
No, we used music
from Gilbert and Sullivan.

260
00:29:12,180 --> 00:29:13,553
Well, he wrote
all-new lyrics.

261
00:29:14,254 --> 00:29:16,256
The Land of Egelloc.

262
00:29:16,756 --> 00:29:18,258
It was quite funny.

263
00:29:18,391 --> 00:29:21,394
The Land of Egelloc?

264
00:29:21,594 --> 00:29:22,862
- Egelloc.
- Mmm-hmm.

265
00:29:23,163 --> 00:29:24,330
You've never heard of it?

266
00:29:24,898 --> 00:29:25,999
I haven't.

267
00:29:26,166 --> 00:29:28,101
Oh, I'm surprised.
It's a distant land.

268
00:29:28,368 --> 00:29:30,403
But, uh, it's a magical place.

269
00:29:30,503 --> 00:29:32,380
It's "college"
spelled backwards.

270
00:29:35,742 --> 00:29:37,430
Seriously?

271
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,800
Yep.

272
00:29:44,417 --> 00:29:47,220
- You're, uh, backup on 5, huh?
- Yeah.

273
00:29:47,387 --> 00:29:49,189
Don't worry, you'll get
your own mission soon.

274
00:29:49,889 --> 00:29:51,858
How's training going on 4?
It's good.

275
00:29:51,958 --> 00:29:53,259
I think we're close on EVA.

276
00:29:54,940 --> 00:29:55,528
First man to walk in space.

277
00:29:56,620 --> 00:29:57,230
That'd be something, huh?

278
00:29:57,397 --> 00:29:59,866
Yeah. Well, you know,
the walking's the easy part.

279
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,202
It's getting back inside
that's tough.

280
00:30:02,369 --> 00:30:05,438
You know, it'd be a hell of a ride to
come back with my tail hanging out.

281
00:30:05,605 --> 00:30:08,408
Oh, I think McDivitt will cut the
cord before that ever happens.

282
00:30:08,475 --> 00:30:10,944
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You throttle back there, Armstrong.

283
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:12,912
Ed! Phone for you.
Yeah?

284
00:30:12,979 --> 00:30:14,581
Yeah, who is it?
It's Deke.

285
00:30:14,748 --> 00:30:15,749
Okay, hang on.

286
00:30:15,915 --> 00:30:17,350
I think
that's Castor and Pollux.

287
00:30:18,451 --> 00:30:20,787
I was testing you.
And you passed.

288
00:30:21,721 --> 00:30:23,323
I thought about
letting it fly, but...

289
00:30:23,323 --> 00:30:24,424
Yeah.

290
00:30:29,462 --> 00:30:31,498
No, I'll turn it on
right now.

291
00:30:32,298 --> 00:30:33,433
Hey, guys.

292
00:30:33,733 --> 00:30:35,969
With a Soviet
pressure suit, we're told,

293
00:30:35,969 --> 00:30:37,937
that was designed
for the lunar surface.

294
00:30:38,104 --> 00:30:39,239
I'll call you back.

295
00:30:39,406 --> 00:30:43,143
This is, of course, mankind's first EVA,
or extravehicular activity.

296
00:30:43,309 --> 00:30:45,145
Within the American
space program,

297
00:30:45,311 --> 00:30:49,783
EVA is seen as one of the crucial
tests the astronauts must master

298
00:30:49,949 --> 00:30:53,286
if they are to successfully carry
out their mission to the Moon.

299
00:30:53,787 --> 00:30:56,589
Astronaut Ed White
was scheduled to perform

300
00:30:56,690 --> 00:30:59,626
the first EVA during Gemini 4.

301
00:30:59,993 --> 00:31:01,928
So this is yet
another major victory

302
00:31:01,995 --> 00:31:04,964
for the Soviet Union
in the Space Race.

303
00:31:14,874 --> 00:31:16,343
We got it from here.

304
00:31:17,677 --> 00:31:19,450
Thanks, Elliot.

305
00:31:27,530 --> 00:31:28,321
Eight days up there.

306
00:31:28,521 --> 00:31:30,824
To be honest, I'm kinda glad
we didn't get this one.

307
00:31:31,570 --> 00:31:33,126
Hope they don't
kill each other.

308
00:31:35,295 --> 00:31:37,497
At least it'd be quieter
around here.

309
00:31:46,639 --> 00:31:47,807
Neil!

310
00:31:50,643 --> 00:31:52,712
Neil Armstrong,
our backup commander.

311
00:31:52,979 --> 00:31:54,470
Buzz Aldrin.

312
00:31:54,147 --> 00:31:55,181
Roger Chaffee.

313
00:31:55,248 --> 00:31:58,385
Couple of greenhorns from third group.
They'll be at blockhouse for launch.

314
00:31:58,718 --> 00:32:00,854
Listen, can I speak to you
for a minute?

315
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,550
Fellas.

316
00:32:07,327 --> 00:32:09,863
We're putting you
in command of Gemini 8.

317
00:32:10,300 --> 00:32:11,498
Dave Scott is gonna be
your pilot.

318
00:32:12,565 --> 00:32:15,535
We get the Agena back online.

319
00:32:16,102 --> 00:32:18,271
You're probably gonna be
the first to dock.

320
00:32:25,178 --> 00:32:27,914
Don't worry about Elliot.
We'll put that brain of his to work.

321
00:32:28,181 --> 00:32:32,850
We've got a big EVA planned for 8.
Dave's a workhorse.

322
00:32:33,386 --> 00:32:34,387
Yes, sir.

323
00:32:34,587 --> 00:32:36,623
I'll talk to you later today.
Thank you.

324
00:32:48,868 --> 00:32:52,772
My eye! My eye!

325
00:32:54,740 --> 00:32:55,575
Mr. Armstrong.

326
00:32:56,710 --> 00:32:58,440
When'd you
start swimming?

327
00:32:58,211 --> 00:33:00,180
I don't remember
exactly, but I think school.

328
00:33:00,213 --> 00:33:01,281
In high school?

329
00:33:01,381 --> 00:33:05,251
Yeah. And we had a... We had a
summer house in northern Wisconsin

330
00:33:05,318 --> 00:33:07,620
and I just used to
go to the lake and fish

331
00:33:07,721 --> 00:33:10,156
and I just used to swim
for miles and miles.

332
00:33:10,256 --> 00:33:11,491
I've always loved it.

333
00:33:14,627 --> 00:33:16,763
Nothing quite compares
to your terrible life.

334
00:33:21,501 --> 00:33:22,602
You got it comin'.

335
00:33:28,141 --> 00:33:30,744
It's the longest bridge
in the world, but...

336
00:33:30,810 --> 00:33:33,130
It's the second-largest
suspension bridge in the world

337
00:33:33,130 --> 00:33:34,948
but these cables are the longest.

338
00:33:36,349 --> 00:33:37,951
- Hey, Ed.
- Oh, hi.

339
00:33:38,118 --> 00:33:39,786
Can I speak with Neil?

340
00:33:40,860 --> 00:33:42,822
Yeah, sure. Why don't you come on in?
You're soaked.

341
00:33:43,356 --> 00:33:46,359
No, I'll...
I'll wait here. Thanks.

342
00:33:48,161 --> 00:33:49,262
You could fly
under there.

343
00:33:49,295 --> 00:33:51,970
That would hurt
if you jumped under it.

344
00:33:51,765 --> 00:33:55,468
What's that? That would
hurt if you jumped over it.

345
00:33:56,202 --> 00:33:57,470
Yeah.

346
00:33:57,637 --> 00:33:58,805
Uh, here are
the sky pieces...

347
00:33:58,872 --> 00:34:00,306
Neil. Ed's outside.

348
00:34:00,874 --> 00:34:03,430
Okay. Excuse me, son.

349
00:34:05,145 --> 00:34:06,146
Hi.

350
00:34:06,980 --> 00:34:08,148
Do you wanna come in?

351
00:34:08,314 --> 00:34:10,216
Some bad news about Elliot.

352
00:34:14,721 --> 00:34:16,823
No, I know. Deke told me
he bumped him, but...

353
00:34:16,890 --> 00:34:19,993
Neil, Elliot and Charlie were
flying into St. Louis this morning.

354
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,529
Their T-38 crashed
on approach.

355
00:34:27,901 --> 00:34:28,902
Oh.

356
00:34:34,240 --> 00:34:36,900
There was a lot of fog.

357
00:34:50,657 --> 00:34:53,426
So did you really fly
under that bridge?

358
00:34:59,199 --> 00:35:01,000
Was it fun?

359
00:35:02,202 --> 00:35:03,903
Were you scared?

360
00:35:04,371 --> 00:35:05,605
Ricky.

361
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:07,107
Honey.

362
00:35:07,207 --> 00:35:09,843
Why don't you go and get your
homework so I can check it?

363
00:35:10,100 --> 00:35:11,110
Yes, ma'am.

364
00:35:17,550 --> 00:35:18,918
Who was it?

365
00:35:29,362 --> 00:35:30,363
Shit.

366
00:35:31,197 --> 00:35:32,699
How the hell
did this happen?

367
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:34,401
Mmm.

368
00:35:34,634 --> 00:35:37,303
Cernan told me cloud cover
was down to 500 feet.

369
00:35:37,737 --> 00:35:39,606
Probably never
saw the building.

370
00:35:40,730 --> 00:35:41,641
Clearly, the error
was the approach.

371
00:35:41,741 --> 00:35:43,743
He was coming in too slow
to reach the runway.

372
00:35:48,782 --> 00:35:50,500
What?

373
00:35:52,285 --> 00:35:56,389
You know Deke had his doubts about
him, that's why he moved Elliot off 8.

374
00:35:57,624 --> 00:35:59,492
Deke gave Elliot
his own command.

375
00:36:00,226 --> 00:36:03,263
Elliot wasn't aggressive enough. You
of all people have to know that.

376
00:36:03,329 --> 00:36:04,798
No, I don't.

377
00:36:05,765 --> 00:36:08,100
I didn't investigate
the crash.

378
00:36:08,935 --> 00:36:12,772
I didn't study the flight trajectory.
And I wasn't the one flying the plane.

379
00:36:12,939 --> 00:36:15,475
So I wouldn't
pretend to know anything.

380
00:36:20,180 --> 00:36:22,248
We'll never be 100% sure.

381
00:37:09,963 --> 00:37:11,531
Can we go?

382
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:13,330
Uh...

383
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,703
Not right now. I wanna help
Marilyn clear all this up.

384
00:37:16,803 --> 00:37:19,139
I don't wanna have her do it
after we're gone.

385
00:37:25,145 --> 00:37:26,179
Neil?

386
00:37:34,921 --> 00:37:36,322
I'm sorry.

387
00:37:36,823 --> 00:37:38,591
- I hate to be a bother.
- Oh.

388
00:37:38,692 --> 00:37:41,361
Jan, it's no bother.
Oh, Jan. Yeah, no.

389
00:37:42,662 --> 00:37:43,897
Neil's, uh...

390
00:37:48,935 --> 00:37:51,771
There was a year
when we were at Edwards...

391
00:37:52,500 --> 00:37:53,440
Four pilots died.

392
00:37:57,711 --> 00:38:00,460
We got good at funerals
that year.

393
00:38:01,781 --> 00:38:03,683
We haven't been to one
in a while.

394
00:38:07,454 --> 00:38:09,689
Does he ever talk to you
about Karen, Ed?

395
00:38:11,424 --> 00:38:14,600
Not really. No.

396
00:38:17,263 --> 00:38:19,432
Does he talk to you
about her?

397
00:38:20,533 --> 00:38:21,601
No.

398
00:38:24,237 --> 00:38:25,572
Never.

399
00:39:00,507 --> 00:39:01,675
Hey, buddy.

400
00:39:04,411 --> 00:39:06,146
You know,
you should be with Jan.

401
00:39:08,782 --> 00:39:10,450
Neil, you should be
playing with your kids.

402
00:39:10,684 --> 00:39:12,686
You know,
putting them into bed.

403
00:39:14,354 --> 00:39:16,489
Times like these... Do you
think I'm standing out here

404
00:39:16,923 --> 00:39:19,859
in the backyard 'cause I
wanna talk to somebody, Ed?

405
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,195
I'm sorry?

406
00:39:24,698 --> 00:39:27,467
Do you think I left there 'cause
I wanna talk to somebody?

407
00:39:49,823 --> 00:39:53,493
T-minus one minute and
counting on the Atlas-Agena launch.

408
00:40:22,489 --> 00:40:25,325
- Liftoff.
- Agena is go.

409
00:40:28,561 --> 00:40:32,198
Flight dynamics for unmanned Agena
target vehicle looking good.

410
00:40:32,732 --> 00:40:34,834
Stand by for Gemini launch.

411
00:40:59,920 --> 00:41:00,260
Yeah.

412
00:41:14,374 --> 00:41:15,408
Okay.

413
00:41:20,747 --> 00:41:22,248
Guaymas,
read you loud and clear.

414
00:41:22,282 --> 00:41:23,616
We have S band track.

415
00:41:23,783 --> 00:41:25,985
We have just locked up on T.M.

416
00:41:26,152 --> 00:41:27,487
All right.
Yeah, what's that?

417
00:41:27,487 --> 00:41:29,956
Did you say all systems go on T.M.?

418
00:41:31,458 --> 00:41:32,559
Hold still, hold still.

419
00:41:32,592 --> 00:41:33,827
So, what is that?

420
00:41:33,993 --> 00:41:36,563
Wait. Hold on a second. Scoot...
Can you scoot down at all?

421
00:41:38,465 --> 00:41:39,632
- Hey.
- What are you doing?

422
00:41:39,632 --> 00:41:41,234
Does anybody got
a Swiss Army knife?

423
00:41:41,267 --> 00:41:42,435
Hold on,
hold on a sec.

424
00:41:42,469 --> 00:41:44,371
- What'd you say?
- See if this will do the trick.

425
00:41:44,404 --> 00:41:45,505
A Swiss Army knife?

426
00:41:45,672 --> 00:41:48,408
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
It's just a little...

427
00:41:49,109 --> 00:41:50,944
- Are you kidding me?
- There we go.

428
00:41:50,977 --> 00:41:52,245
- Good Lord.
- You got it.

429
00:41:52,278 --> 00:41:53,913
Guaymas, Agena is go.

430
00:41:55,810 --> 00:41:56,716
Roger, Guaymas.

431
00:43:11,925 --> 00:43:13,827
Switching to HF.
One, two, three, four, five.

432
00:43:13,860 --> 00:43:15,995
Five, four, three,
two, one. Check out.

433
00:43:16,229 --> 00:43:17,897
Copy.
T-minus two minutes.

434
00:43:18,198 --> 00:43:19,366
Engines to start.

435
00:43:19,666 --> 00:43:20,900
Ground power removal.

436
00:43:21,167 --> 00:43:23,370
Stage 2 prevalves
coming open. Five seconds.

437
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,890
T-minus 20 seconds.
Mark.

438
00:44:25,899 --> 00:44:28,635
Ten, nine,

439
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,671
eight, seven,

440
00:44:32,238 --> 00:44:36,176
six, five, four,

441
00:44:36,476 --> 00:44:40,747
three, two, one.

442
00:44:41,681 --> 00:44:42,916
Ignition.

443
00:44:51,124 --> 00:44:53,930
Liftoff!

444
00:45:01,601 --> 00:45:03,803
Clock is running.
Got a roll program in.

445
00:45:03,870 --> 00:45:06,206
Roger. Roll.
Good liftoff, 8.

446
00:45:16,683 --> 00:45:19,185
- Pitch program.
- Roger. Pitch program.

447
00:45:29,329 --> 00:45:30,897
DCS update received.

448
00:45:31,297 --> 00:45:32,665
Roger. DCS.

449
00:45:42,208 --> 00:45:43,877
Stage two tanks
look good.

450
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:45,645
That's about
three and a half g's.

451
00:46:23,683 --> 00:46:25,618
Go from the ground
for staging.

452
00:46:25,752 --> 00:46:27,870
Roger.

453
00:46:41,368 --> 00:46:43,103
Fuel cells are solid.

454
00:46:44,537 --> 00:46:47,407
Gemini 8. Mark.
V over Vr

455
00:46:47,474 --> 00:46:49,576
is point zero eight.

456
00:46:50,430 --> 00:46:51,711
Okay. Mode three.

457
00:46:58,118 --> 00:46:59,652
We had SECO.

458
00:47:47,467 --> 00:47:50,937
"Fear that someone will break in

459
00:47:51,338 --> 00:47:54,541
"and steal all of my

460
00:47:55,375 --> 00:47:57,143
"Hank Williams..."

461
00:47:57,210 --> 00:47:59,145
Roger.
Transmitting maneuver load.

462
00:47:59,813 --> 00:48:01,114
It's a height adjust.

463
00:48:02,849 --> 00:48:05,685
Height adjust.
Got DCS.

464
00:48:06,319 --> 00:48:09,220
Roger.
And are you ready to copy the update? Over.

465
00:48:09,389 --> 00:48:11,570
Okay, go with
the update, Hawaii.

466
00:48:11,391 --> 00:48:16,229
Roger.
GET B 1-3-4-3-7.

467
00:48:16,329 --> 00:48:18,965
Delta-V, two-decimal-nine.

468
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,135
Burn time, zero plus zero-five.

469
00:48:23,703 --> 00:48:24,971
"Out of..."

470
00:48:25,710 --> 00:48:27,307
Hi. Hey, Mom,
can I get you anything?

471
00:48:29,676 --> 00:48:30,877
"Constant."

472
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:36,316
Thrusters forward.
Maneuver retrograde. Did you copy?

473
00:48:36,583 --> 00:48:38,184
Roger, Hawaii. Got it.

474
00:48:38,485 --> 00:48:41,870
This is Paul Haney at Gemini
Control Houston.

475
00:48:41,870 --> 00:48:43,656
Our display chart shows
Gemini 8 in orbit.

476
00:48:43,823 --> 00:48:46,926
The crew will now attempt to find
the unmanned Agena spacecraft

477
00:48:47,270 --> 00:48:48,695
and dock with it.

478
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:08,948
- Burn end.
- Good burn.

479
00:49:23,196 --> 00:49:25,131
Shouldn't we have a visual
on the Agena by now?

480
00:49:29,736 --> 00:49:31,871
Houston, I think
we overdid it a little.

481
00:49:32,720 --> 00:49:33,239
We should have stopped early.

482
00:49:33,373 --> 00:49:34,374
Roger.

483
00:49:34,774 --> 00:49:37,770
8, stand by for a correction.

484
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:41,915
FIDO, Flight.
How we doing?

485
00:49:42,820 --> 00:49:43,717
Okay, we got a solid
track on both vehicles.

486
00:49:43,750 --> 00:49:44,751
Calculating for the burn.

487
00:49:44,918 --> 00:49:47,220
FIDO, Agena, do you
have what you need from us?

488
00:49:47,287 --> 00:49:50,223
FIDO, did you copy that?

489
00:49:50,457 --> 00:49:52,258
Roger, Flight.
I copy.

490
00:49:52,492 --> 00:49:53,593
You guys getting this?

491
00:49:53,793 --> 00:49:55,929
We just have some ratty data
with the Gemini computer.

492
00:49:58,398 --> 00:49:59,999
Need the correction,
gentlemen, let's go.

493
00:50:00,300 --> 00:50:01,601
Sending it up now.

494
00:50:01,735 --> 00:50:04,671
- Okay, CAPCOM, let's get it up to them.
- This is Houston CAPCOM.

495
00:50:04,671 --> 00:50:06,720
We're gonna need you to
do another burn here

496
00:50:06,106 --> 00:50:08,800
very shortly,
so stand by to copy.

497
00:50:08,575 --> 00:50:12,780
GET B 0-3-0-3-4-1.

498
00:50:12,779 --> 00:50:16,950
Uh, Delta-V is
two seconds posigrade.

499
00:50:17,283 --> 00:50:18,284
Two feet...

500
00:50:18,351 --> 00:50:20,787
Uh, Delta-V is
two feet posigrade.

501
00:50:21,788 --> 00:50:24,257
Uh, 8, do you copy?

502
00:50:28,528 --> 00:50:30,764
- Mark.
- Two feet posigrade...

503
00:50:30,830 --> 00:50:32,766
Give that back, Mark. Give that back.
Put it back on the table.

504
00:50:32,799 --> 00:50:34,300
That is correct.
Zero, zero, zero.

505
00:50:34,334 --> 00:50:36,369
Honey. Give me it.
It's really important.

506
00:50:36,469 --> 00:50:38,380
Let me know
what the results are.

507
00:50:38,380 --> 00:50:39,839
Give that back to Mom
right now.

508
00:50:39,939 --> 00:50:41,207
Do you copy?

509
00:50:42,542 --> 00:50:44,477
Mark Armstrong, if you
don't give me that back...

510
00:50:44,611 --> 00:50:45,645
8, do you copy?

511
00:50:46,460 --> 00:50:47,547
I'm not joking, Mark.

512
00:50:48,148 --> 00:50:52,852
I'm getting a horrendous 20 to
25 feet per second down, Neil.

513
00:50:53,119 --> 00:50:55,121
I can't see
any possible reason for that.

514
00:50:55,388 --> 00:50:56,956
Where are we on the plot?
We're above it.

515
00:50:56,990 --> 00:50:58,958
Right, but what does it look like if...
I can't.

516
00:50:59,250 --> 00:51:02,228
I'm sorry. I have to...
I have to look at this.

517
00:51:02,328 --> 00:51:03,930
- Okay.
- 8, can you give us a status?

518
00:51:04,297 --> 00:51:06,633
No. I got too much to do.

519
00:51:06,966 --> 00:51:08,401
Copy. Standing by.

520
00:51:11,504 --> 00:51:13,406
Okay, we're gonna go
with a closed loop.

521
00:51:13,907 --> 00:51:15,750
Twenty-five forward,

522
00:51:15,308 --> 00:51:17,711
eight left, three up.

523
00:51:18,645 --> 00:51:20,347
And I'm going
to rate command.

524
00:51:23,883 --> 00:51:26,553
Three, two, one,

525
00:51:26,653 --> 00:51:27,654
burn.

526
00:52:09,529 --> 00:52:10,697
Could be a planet.

527
00:52:11,531 --> 00:52:13,660
Could be.

528
00:52:18,405 --> 00:52:19,839
This is Houston,
we have your ground

529
00:52:19,873 --> 00:52:22,308
TPI backup
when you're ready to copy.

530
00:52:22,409 --> 00:52:24,577
Uh, stand by,
we have a visual on the Agena.

531
00:52:25,445 --> 00:52:27,914
At least something
we think looks like the Agena.

532
00:52:28,615 --> 00:52:31,651
Understand,
possible visual on the Agena.

533
00:52:32,218 --> 00:52:33,586
We're getting a little
out of plane now.

534
00:52:33,620 --> 00:52:36,656
Yeah. We gotta get three aft
and two and a half up.

535
00:52:36,756 --> 00:52:39,125
I'm gonna start braking.
Give me a digital range and rate.

536
00:52:44,931 --> 00:52:46,660
I better back off a bit.

537
00:52:46,332 --> 00:52:48,501
6,000 feet,
31 feet per second.

538
00:52:52,939 --> 00:52:55,442
Put in a little to the left.
1,680 feet.

539
00:53:03,316 --> 00:53:05,118
That's unbelievable.

540
00:53:05,785 --> 00:53:07,354
Would you look at that?

541
00:53:17,130 --> 00:53:18,498
You tell 'em.

542
00:53:23,803 --> 00:53:27,540
Houston, we're station-keeping
on the Agena about 150 feet.

543
00:53:28,842 --> 00:53:31,811
Okay, stay focused, gentlemen.
We're only halfway there.

544
00:53:32,812 --> 00:53:34,314
Thanks for
the extra hands.

545
00:53:40,530 --> 00:53:41,654
Stay focused,
gentlemen.

546
00:54:03,209 --> 00:54:04,744
Man, it flies easy.

547
00:54:04,911 --> 00:54:06,646
Does it really?

548
00:54:07,147 --> 00:54:09,382
The station-keeping,
it's just...

549
00:54:09,649 --> 00:54:11,384
It's like nothing.

550
00:54:20,894 --> 00:54:22,562
Uh, RKV, this is 8.

551
00:54:23,163 --> 00:54:25,265
We're sitting about
two feet out.

552
00:54:26,166 --> 00:54:28,735
Roger. Stand by
for a couple of minutes here.

553
00:54:28,835 --> 00:54:29,903
Roger.

554
00:54:31,104 --> 00:54:33,940
Okay, Gemini 8,
we have TM solid.

555
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:37,277
You're looking good on the ground.
Go ahead and dock.

556
00:54:54,940 --> 00:54:57,364
Okay, we're gonna cycle
our Rigid-Stop switch now.

557
00:55:22,489 --> 00:55:23,790
Flight, we are docked.

558
00:55:34,667 --> 00:55:36,569
Someone call Cronkite!

559
00:55:36,770 --> 00:55:39,172
Have him tell the Soviets
that they can go screw!

560
00:55:39,572 --> 00:55:41,174
Get him on the phone, man.

561
00:55:41,241 --> 00:55:44,444
Hey, Pete! Hey, call those idiots
at Congress while you're at it!

562
00:55:44,511 --> 00:55:46,346
Yeah, I'll start
with Rhode Island.

563
00:55:47,914 --> 00:55:50,116
Oh, damn.

564
00:55:50,617 --> 00:55:52,552
Well done. Let's go
ahead and get a state vector

565
00:55:52,585 --> 00:55:53,987
on the combined spacecraft.

566
00:55:54,254 --> 00:55:56,790
Gemini 8, this is Houston CAPCOM.
Please stand by to copy.

567
00:55:56,856 --> 00:55:58,625
Check out my room
like this.

568
00:55:58,692 --> 00:56:00,860
Look at all these papers.
I know.

569
00:56:01,361 --> 00:56:05,865
I spent days trying to work on
that, and now it's crumpled up.

570
00:56:06,332 --> 00:56:08,635
Look at my drawer.
I know.

571
00:56:08,802 --> 00:56:12,372
I had all my crayons in that,
and now look at all the crayons.

572
00:56:12,539 --> 00:56:14,207
But, Ricky, are you
telling me the full story?

573
00:56:14,207 --> 00:56:15,375
'Cause I'm not sure your
brother would do that.

574
00:56:15,375 --> 00:56:16,543
Yes, I am telling you!

575
00:56:16,643 --> 00:56:18,712
Don't you get angry with me.
Look at this!

576
00:56:19,879 --> 00:56:21,147
Don't get upset.

577
00:56:21,548 --> 00:56:22,749
Uh, 8, this is Houston.

578
00:56:23,116 --> 00:56:25,785
Uh, I've got a nodal update
for you. Stand by.

579
00:56:27,821 --> 00:56:29,689
Okay, go ahead.
Rick!

580
00:56:29,789 --> 00:56:31,958
Roger.
Node 0-7-0-4-4-7...

581
00:56:32,125 --> 00:56:34,994
Okay, out here now.
Out here now.

582
00:56:35,610 --> 00:56:37,630
1-5-5-2
right ascension.

583
00:56:37,797 --> 00:56:40,300
Gemini 8, we're about
to have loss of signal.

584
00:56:40,367 --> 00:56:42,969
We'll pick you up over
the hill for Dave's EVA.

585
00:56:49,676 --> 00:56:52,345
I'm hoping that's
just excess hydrogen.

586
00:56:52,846 --> 00:56:54,914
I think I'm gonna save mine
for later.

587
00:56:55,115 --> 00:56:56,249
Little treat.

588
00:57:02,355 --> 00:57:03,757
Uh, Neil, we're in a bank.

589
00:57:11,970 --> 00:57:13,466
We're not doing it.
It's not us. It must be...

590
00:57:13,533 --> 00:57:15,368
Shut off
the Agena's control systems.

591
00:57:15,869 --> 00:57:17,303
Code 4-0-0...

592
00:57:17,470 --> 00:57:19,105
Agena control system
shut down.

593
00:57:43,396 --> 00:57:45,650
Cycle the Agena.

594
00:57:45,799 --> 00:57:48,301
Turning it on.
Turning it off.

595
00:58:12,892 --> 00:58:16,262
I'm gonna cycle the ACME
and the propellant motor valves.

596
00:58:17,330 --> 00:58:19,990
Switching ADL to pitch.

597
00:58:19,666 --> 00:58:20,900
RL to pitch.

598
00:58:27,774 --> 00:58:29,743
Roll meter
200 and rising.

599
00:58:32,846 --> 00:58:33,880
Separate from the Agena.

600
00:58:36,683 --> 00:58:39,190
Setting Agena
to allow remote command.

601
00:58:39,850 --> 00:58:40,754
Switching on the DAC.

602
00:58:40,854 --> 00:58:43,456
Make sure you give it extra thrust
so we don't smash into the Agena.

603
00:58:43,456 --> 00:58:45,580
On my mark, undock.

604
00:58:47,293 --> 00:58:48,461
Two...

605
00:58:48,928 --> 00:58:50,230
One...

606
00:59:05,545 --> 00:59:07,781
OAMS propellant, 13%.

607
00:59:07,914 --> 00:59:10,500
It's not the Agena. It's us.

608
00:59:32,505 --> 00:59:36,343
Gemini 8 coming back
into range in three, two, one.

609
00:59:36,643 --> 00:59:38,845
This is CSQ,
checking our comm link.

610
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:40,513
How do you read?

611
00:59:43,350 --> 00:59:44,851
Gemini 8, how do you read?

612
00:59:45,151 --> 00:59:46,820
We have
serious problems.

613
00:59:47,153 --> 00:59:49,122
We're tumbling
end over end up here.

614
00:59:49,189 --> 00:59:50,757
We're disengaged
from the Agena.

615
00:59:52,158 --> 00:59:55,595
Okay, we got your
spacecraft free indication here.

616
00:59:55,762 --> 00:59:57,297
What seems to be the problem?

617
00:59:57,530 --> 00:59:59,699
We're rolling up and we can't
turn anything off.

618
00:59:59,866 --> 01:00:01,835
We're continuously
increasing in a left roll.

619
01:00:02,602 --> 01:00:03,603
CSQ, Flight.

620
01:00:03,670 --> 01:00:04,671
Go ahead, Flight.

621
01:00:04,871 --> 01:00:07,874
Did he say he cannot
turn the Agena off?

622
01:00:08,410 --> 01:00:10,610
No, he says he's
separated from the Agena

623
01:00:10,677 --> 01:00:13,179
and he's in a roll,
and he can't stop it.

624
01:00:13,279 --> 01:00:15,782
Flight, their roll meter
reads 270 and rising.

625
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:19,452
At that rate, they'll be passing
out in about 40 seconds.

626
01:00:20,887 --> 01:00:22,550
Paul.

627
01:00:23,289 --> 01:00:24,391
Paul.

628
01:00:27,270 --> 01:00:28,995
Trying to stop
the rates.

629
01:00:29,620 --> 01:00:30,530
We certainly have...

630
01:01:07,534 --> 01:01:08,735
You need to...

631
01:01:12,505 --> 01:01:14,774
Gemini 8, you need to...

632
01:01:21,715 --> 01:01:22,949
We can't...

633
01:01:44,871 --> 01:01:46,606
Close the RCS breakers.

634
01:01:49,776 --> 01:01:50,877
Dave!

635
01:01:50,944 --> 01:01:54,814
Gemini 8, did you say
you are closing RCS breakers?

636
01:01:56,216 --> 01:01:58,451
Are you initiating RCS?

637
01:01:59,886 --> 01:02:00,887
Gemini 8...

638
01:02:00,954 --> 01:02:04,824
Again, did you say
you are closing RCS breakers?

639
01:02:05,892 --> 01:02:07,961
You will not be able
to control your attitude.

640
01:02:34,821 --> 01:02:35,855
Okay.

641
01:02:36,156 --> 01:02:38,158
We're regaining control
of the spacecraft.

642
01:02:38,758 --> 01:02:40,930
Slowly in RCS direct.

643
01:02:42,762 --> 01:02:43,930
Roger.

644
01:02:44,931 --> 01:02:45,932
Roger. Copy.

645
01:02:45,999 --> 01:02:48,368
We're pulsing the RCS slowly.
It's all roll right.

646
01:02:49,335 --> 01:02:51,171
We're trying to kill
our roll rate here.

647
01:03:00,180 --> 01:03:02,480
Move us back to one ring.

648
01:03:02,649 --> 01:03:03,783
Copy.

649
01:03:14,527 --> 01:03:16,196
I want emergency
landing options.

650
01:03:16,296 --> 01:03:18,298
Wait until you find out
how much fuel there's left.

651
01:03:19,999 --> 01:03:21,534
Bob, what do you think?

652
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:24,304
I think they'd
better land now.

653
01:03:28,875 --> 01:03:29,909
Deke.

654
01:03:30,243 --> 01:03:31,711
Jan's outside.

655
01:03:47,494 --> 01:03:49,596
Jan, the ship is stable.
They're gonna be all right.

656
01:03:50,497 --> 01:03:51,698
He's okay, Jan.

657
01:03:51,898 --> 01:03:52,999
I need you
to go home.

658
01:03:53,660 --> 01:03:54,534
Fine. Turn the box back on.

659
01:03:54,868 --> 01:03:55,869
I'll see what I can do...

660
01:03:55,935 --> 01:03:58,204
Now.
Turn the box back on now.

661
01:03:59,839 --> 01:04:01,107
Well, there's
security protocol that's...

662
01:04:01,107 --> 01:04:02,275
Well, I don't give a damn.

663
01:04:02,676 --> 01:04:04,544
I've got a dozen cameras
on my front lawn, Deke.

664
01:04:04,611 --> 01:04:06,346
Do you want me telling them
what's going on?

665
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,516
Jan, you have to trust us.
We've got this under control.

666
01:04:09,582 --> 01:04:10,750
No, you don't.

667
01:04:10,850 --> 01:04:12,852
All these protocols
and procedures to make it

668
01:04:12,919 --> 01:04:14,921
seem like you have it
under control.

669
01:04:15,622 --> 01:04:18,792
But you're a bunch of boys
making models out of balsa wood.

670
01:04:18,892 --> 01:04:21,940
You don't have
anything under control!

671
01:04:26,660 --> 01:04:30,270
Naha Rescue One
will be on station at splashdown.

672
01:04:30,904 --> 01:04:32,539
With a flotation collar.

673
01:04:32,739 --> 01:04:34,607
Did you get
the call signs?

674
01:04:35,542 --> 01:04:37,277
Uh, yeah.
It's Naha Rescue One

675
01:04:37,377 --> 01:04:38,878
and Naha Search One.

676
01:04:41,715 --> 01:04:45,552
Well, I'd like to argue with them
about the going home, but I'm

677
01:04:45,652 --> 01:04:48,254
not sure how we can.

678
01:04:49,289 --> 01:04:50,457
Yeah.

679
01:04:52,258 --> 01:04:56,763
I just keep thinking, is there
anything else that we forgot?

680
01:04:58,264 --> 01:05:00,633
We did everything,
as far as I know.

681
01:05:13,747 --> 01:05:18,418
Gemini 8 saw two complex vehicles
launched on the same day on time.

682
01:05:19,519 --> 01:05:21,988
We saw flawless rendezvous
and docking.

683
01:05:22,655 --> 01:05:26,260
All of which is tended to be
overshadowed by the malfunction.

684
01:05:26,526 --> 01:05:31,831
But I think we should focus on the
progress resulting from the mission.

685
01:05:33,299 --> 01:05:36,136
The board would like to focus
on the malfunction.

686
01:05:36,202 --> 01:05:39,339
Neil, walk us through the decision
to separate from the Agena.

687
01:05:42,809 --> 01:05:46,312
You mentioned that the rate of
revolution was more than once a second.

688
01:05:46,513 --> 01:05:48,480
How near were you
to being unconscious?

689
01:05:48,448 --> 01:05:51,151
Did you think to use the Agena
to stabilize the combined craft?

690
01:05:51,184 --> 01:05:52,385
We did.

691
01:05:53,190 --> 01:05:55,655
This was, uh,
not successful.

692
01:05:56,489 --> 01:05:58,240
As I said,
we initially assumed

693
01:05:58,124 --> 01:06:00,460
that the anomaly was with
the Agena control system.

694
01:06:00,860 --> 01:06:03,663
'Cause there was no way to know
that a thruster was causing the...

695
01:06:04,464 --> 01:06:09,369
If we could have, uh, isolated
each of Gemini's thrusters...

696
01:06:09,469 --> 01:06:11,171
If we'd had that capability
in the moment...

697
01:06:12,906 --> 01:06:14,740
Agence France.

698
01:06:14,174 --> 01:06:17,711
Did you have any feeling of anxiety
after the failure of the thrusters?

699
01:06:17,811 --> 01:06:19,279
In the midst of the spinning,

700
01:06:19,312 --> 01:06:23,683
did you seem to realize or feel the
presence of God closer than other times?

701
01:06:24,500 --> 01:06:27,721
With this so hot on the heels of the
loss of Charlie Bassett and Elliot See,

702
01:06:27,821 --> 01:06:29,989
do you question whether
the program is worth the cost?

703
01:06:30,156 --> 01:06:31,358
In money and in lives?

704
01:06:43,903 --> 01:06:45,138
All right,
thanks, guys.

705
01:06:45,205 --> 01:06:48,740
We've got a lot to discuss and we'll
be back in touch with you soon.

706
01:06:48,608 --> 01:06:49,709
Thank you.

707
01:06:51,378 --> 01:06:52,846
Mmm-mmm.

708
01:06:54,347 --> 01:06:56,383
No. So, we're using our
thumb now, honey. Oh.

709
01:06:56,583 --> 01:06:57,584
Okay.

710
01:07:01,588 --> 01:07:04,240
"Our Wild Ride In Space"?

711
01:07:04,900 --> 01:07:07,227
It's marketing, Mr. Armstrong.
NASA approval numbers are dropping.

712
01:07:07,260 --> 01:07:08,428
That's not my concern.

713
01:07:08,628 --> 01:07:09,629
Almost. Okay.

714
01:07:09,729 --> 01:07:12,298
I'm gonna finish wrapping your
brother's present. I'll be back.

715
01:07:12,399 --> 01:07:14,434
- You practice that one.
- I'll try.

716
01:07:16,236 --> 01:07:19,606
I'm not interested in how other
magazines are framing the story.

717
01:07:33,620 --> 01:07:35,422
Okay. Keep going.

718
01:07:37,757 --> 01:07:40,794
If it's any consolation,
Ed was a zombie for weeks after Gemini 4.

719
01:07:41,227 --> 01:07:42,228
Yeah?
Mmm-hmm.

720
01:07:44,597 --> 01:07:49,235
Yeah. I guess it must be,
uh, disorienting for them.

721
01:07:49,636 --> 01:07:50,904
Certainly.

722
01:07:52,172 --> 01:07:53,273
Yeah.

723
01:07:55,842 --> 01:07:57,143
God, Pat.

724
01:07:58,945 --> 01:08:01,748
I married Neil
'cause I wanted a normal life.

725
01:08:03,350 --> 01:08:05,652
I know. I know.

726
01:08:08,121 --> 01:08:11,424
He was just so different from all
the other boys on campus. Hmm.

727
01:08:13,126 --> 01:08:14,794
He'd been through the war.
You know?

728
01:08:15,795 --> 01:08:17,330
He knew
what he wanted to do.

729
01:08:18,665 --> 01:08:20,300
He just seemed so stable.

730
01:08:23,336 --> 01:08:25,438
I guess all I wanted
was stability.

731
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:34,140
I've got a sorority sister
with a normal life.

732
01:08:34,514 --> 01:08:37,117
Yeah?
She married a dentist.

733
01:08:37,617 --> 01:08:40,487
Dentist. Sounds good.

734
01:08:40,620 --> 01:08:41,888
He's home by 6:00
every night.

735
01:08:42,155 --> 01:08:45,692
And every few months, she calls
to say she wishes he weren't.

736
01:08:53,867 --> 01:08:55,201
Yeah.

737
01:09:00,407 --> 01:09:02,142
Still working, I see.

738
01:09:02,709 --> 01:09:03,710
Yeah.

739
01:09:04,644 --> 01:09:08,682
Well, I was gonna go
grab a beer at Dave's.

740
01:09:14,854 --> 01:09:16,356
Yeah, all right. Fine.

741
01:09:16,523 --> 01:09:17,924
I could use a beer.

742
01:09:26,566 --> 01:09:28,268
You know,
I will say one thing.

743
01:09:29,269 --> 01:09:30,937
It's all I can think about,

744
01:09:31,271 --> 01:09:32,572
is getting back up there.

745
01:09:33,540 --> 01:09:35,375
Just caught a rough break.

746
01:09:35,909 --> 01:09:37,610
Well, you boys did
everything right.

747
01:09:38,345 --> 01:09:39,379
Everything.

748
01:09:39,546 --> 01:09:41,815
You know, I was talking about it
with Gus, and we both agreed.

749
01:09:41,848 --> 01:09:45,352
I did hear a little rumor that you
and Gus have been hanging out.

750
01:09:45,518 --> 01:09:47,200
- You did?
- Mmm-hmm.

751
01:09:47,870 --> 01:09:48,880
Hey.

752
01:09:48,588 --> 01:09:49,756
Is it true?

753
01:09:50,790 --> 01:09:52,292
Is what true?

754
01:09:56,129 --> 01:09:59,399
Deke pulled me aside and told me that
him and Gus want me on the crew.

755
01:10:01,234 --> 01:10:02,802
Of the first Apollo?

756
01:10:03,570 --> 01:10:04,571
Yeah.

757
01:10:05,238 --> 01:10:07,907
Yeah.
Holy shit, that's huge.

758
01:10:08,740 --> 01:10:09,609
Congratulations.

759
01:10:10,910 --> 01:10:12,312
I gotta shake your hand.

760
01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:13,546
Thanks, man.

761
01:10:13,713 --> 01:10:14,714
Wow.

762
01:10:14,881 --> 01:10:17,150
That Saturn's a monster, you're
in for one heck of a ride.

763
01:10:17,283 --> 01:10:18,418
It is.

764
01:10:18,485 --> 01:10:19,586
Oh, hey.

765
01:10:19,719 --> 01:10:22,756
You know Deke wants Gus to be the
first one on the Moon, so...

766
01:10:24,900 --> 01:10:26,760
Hey, that puts you in the LEM
with him for the landing.

767
01:10:26,926 --> 01:10:28,962
Oh, no.
Let's not get carried away.

768
01:10:29,129 --> 01:10:31,231
All right, get out of my house.
I gotta go to bed.

769
01:10:31,264 --> 01:10:33,500
I'm not kidding, get out of my house.

770
01:10:36,302 --> 01:10:37,303
Neil.

771
01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:42,800
Hey, Neil. Don't bother sitting,
it's gonna be a short meeting.

772
01:10:42,809 --> 01:10:45,912
We've talked it through, we think it's
pretty clear. If you hadn't kept cool,

773
01:10:45,979 --> 01:10:48,682
you wouldn't be here and we'd still
be asking what the hell happened.

774
01:10:48,682 --> 01:10:50,350
So would Congress.
It's a showstopper.

775
01:10:50,517 --> 01:10:51,818
This mission
was a success.

776
01:10:52,152 --> 01:10:53,787
We're full steam ahead
for Apollo.

777
01:10:53,987 --> 01:10:55,880
You good with that?

778
01:10:55,155 --> 01:10:57,123
Yes, sir.

779
01:10:57,290 --> 01:10:59,693
I trust you won't mind representing
us at the White House.

780
01:11:01,995 --> 01:11:03,163
No, sir.

781
01:11:03,329 --> 01:11:04,431
Good.

782
01:11:04,864 --> 01:11:05,999
Thank you.

783
01:11:06,990 --> 01:11:07,333
Thank you.

784
01:11:08,101 --> 01:11:09,669
Thank you.

785
01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:13,473
"Interface problems and
develop operational techniques

786
01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:17,811
"for the most efficient use
of onboard capabilities."

787
01:11:17,977 --> 01:11:19,346
What?

788
01:11:24,184 --> 01:11:27,120
I got one. I got one.

789
01:11:27,287 --> 01:11:29,222
No!
I got one.

790
01:11:29,389 --> 01:11:31,925
I don't know why you're laughing.
He's gonna do that to you in a minute.

791
01:11:31,958 --> 01:11:34,327
This time, I'm gonna put
this one in the freezer.

792
01:11:34,494 --> 01:11:35,528
You need a hand?

793
01:11:35,628 --> 01:11:36,963
- Yeah.
- Okay, in you go.

794
01:11:37,300 --> 01:11:38,131
Can you open
the freezer?

795
01:11:38,164 --> 01:11:39,766
Let's keep him for
longer and then he won't...

796
01:11:39,799 --> 01:11:41,134
In you go.

797
01:11:52,245 --> 01:11:53,480
I got one.

798
01:11:53,847 --> 01:11:55,480
I got one.

799
01:11:55,482 --> 01:11:57,250
- Because I want to.
- Who did what?

800
01:11:57,417 --> 01:11:59,552
- Me.
- Have you seen his room?

801
01:11:59,652 --> 01:12:01,388
Son, go stand in the corner.

802
01:12:06,426 --> 01:12:08,940
It's not funny.

803
01:12:11,197 --> 01:12:12,832
Thanks a lot, Mark!

804
01:12:12,899 --> 01:12:14,634
- Stop laughing.
- You're lying!

805
01:12:14,667 --> 01:12:16,200
Punish him.
Just you stop it.

806
01:12:16,436 --> 01:12:18,380
You're the reason he's upset.

807
01:12:18,104 --> 01:12:19,639
Your mother's not
laughing, she's crying.

808
01:12:19,673 --> 01:12:21,941
I'm not laughing,
I'm crying.

809
01:12:26,379 --> 01:12:27,914
I gotta tell you.

810
01:12:28,348 --> 01:12:31,384
Eddie's started asking questions
about the new command module.

811
01:12:31,918 --> 01:12:33,520
- Is that right?
- Yeah.

812
01:12:33,787 --> 01:12:36,756
He wants to know if it's gonna
fly any different to Gemini.

813
01:12:37,223 --> 01:12:39,959
If the little buttons are gonna
be in the same place.

814
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:42,395
Oh, boy.
Yeah.

815
01:12:42,762 --> 01:12:44,931
You got yourself
a little engineer there.

816
01:12:45,699 --> 01:12:47,330
I tell you, though,

817
01:12:47,534 --> 01:12:49,235
I love that he's interested.

818
01:12:51,938 --> 01:12:54,607
Came in the other morning,
he did.

819
01:12:54,774 --> 01:12:57,310
Comes runnin' up
and he says, "Daddy,

820
01:12:58,780 --> 01:13:00,814
"if you go to the Moon, are you
gonna be lonely out there?

821
01:13:01,470 --> 01:13:03,216
"So far away from the Earth.

822
01:13:05,985 --> 01:13:08,154
"All of us back here at home."

823
01:13:10,990 --> 01:13:13,727
This whole thing is
expanding his horizons.

824
01:13:15,829 --> 01:13:17,731
It, uh, gives me faith.

825
01:13:19,499 --> 01:13:21,134
It make sense?

826
01:13:25,138 --> 01:13:27,807
Walkers got a new swing set.

827
01:13:29,743 --> 01:13:31,277
Yeah, I noticed that.

828
01:13:41,488 --> 01:13:45,859
We had a swing like that
back up in Juniper Hills.

829
01:13:50,163 --> 01:13:52,320
Karen really loved it.

830
01:13:55,702 --> 01:13:57,437
That's your daughter?

831
01:14:06,546 --> 01:14:08,815
Guess I ought to be
gettin' home.

832
01:14:59,833 --> 01:15:01,167
Closing hatches now.

833
01:15:08,375 --> 01:15:09,709
Okay, that's all of 'em.

834
01:15:09,776 --> 01:15:10,877
Thanks, Ed.

835
01:15:14,180 --> 01:15:15,382
Ablative hatch closed.

836
01:15:16,820 --> 01:15:18,351
Closing the boost
protective cover.

837
01:15:19,953 --> 01:15:21,721
And plugs out.

838
01:15:31,765 --> 01:15:33,299
Ready for oxygen purge.

839
01:15:44,711 --> 01:15:47,981
Guys, you wanna hold down the chatter?
We're on open mic.

840
01:15:48,148 --> 01:15:49,883
Let's hold
the countdown.

841
01:15:53,920 --> 01:15:55,789
Sorry, guys,
we'll get this squared.

842
01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:57,891
Shit, we're gonna be
here all night.

843
01:15:58,580 --> 01:15:59,392
Gus, we didn't get that.

844
01:15:59,559 --> 01:16:00,760
'Course you didn't.

845
01:16:03,763 --> 01:16:05,832
Glad you think
this is funny.

846
01:16:13,106 --> 01:16:14,641
We finished strong
with Gemini

847
01:16:14,741 --> 01:16:16,976
and we're very, very bullish
on Apollo, Senator.

848
01:16:17,770 --> 01:16:19,913
I should hope so, given the
time we've spent developing it.

849
01:16:19,979 --> 01:16:22,182
Half the country doesn't think
it's worth it anymore.

850
01:16:22,415 --> 01:16:23,650
Uh, well,

851
01:16:25,118 --> 01:16:28,855
we learned to fly
only 60 years ago,

852
01:16:30,900 --> 01:16:33,927
so if you consider the technological
developments in the context of history...

853
01:16:33,993 --> 01:16:37,197
I'm considering it in the
context of taxpayer dollars.

854
01:16:37,297 --> 01:16:38,765
And so are we, Senator.

855
01:16:38,932 --> 01:16:42,502
Between us, we're doing some final
tests on the new command module today.

856
01:16:42,702 --> 01:16:45,138
I'm sure Mr. Gilruth would be
happy to tell you about it.

857
01:16:45,271 --> 01:16:47,107
Let me introduce you to Bob.
Come on.

858
01:16:47,273 --> 01:16:48,375
Okay.

859
01:17:08,728 --> 01:17:10,530
Well, I haven't talked yet.
How's this?

860
01:17:10,630 --> 01:17:12,966
One, two, three, four, five,

861
01:17:13,566 --> 01:17:15,668
four, three, two, one.

862
01:17:22,742 --> 01:17:25,378
Uh, we need another
minute to get it sorted.

863
01:17:25,845 --> 01:17:29,315
How are we gonna get to the Moon if we
can't talk between three buildings?

864
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:32,180
They can't hear a thing
you're saying.

865
01:17:33,319 --> 01:17:34,854
Jesus Christ.

866
01:17:35,210 --> 01:17:36,220
Say again?

867
01:17:36,189 --> 01:17:37,524
I said, how are we gonna
get to the Moon

868
01:17:37,557 --> 01:17:39,426
if we can't talk between
two or three buildings?

869
01:17:41,828 --> 01:17:43,229
You tell 'em, Gus.
You tell 'em.

870
01:17:43,329 --> 01:17:44,564
Mickey Mouse shit.

871
01:17:44,664 --> 01:17:47,200
I got a surge
in the AC bus two voltage.

872
01:17:47,901 --> 01:17:50,336
- Try resetting the meter.
- You getting this, Gus?

873
01:17:51,338 --> 01:17:55,750
Rog, you picking anything
up on the dials?

874
01:18:04,918 --> 01:18:06,686
Hey, we got a fire
in the cockpit.

875
01:18:12,559 --> 01:18:14,260
Hey, we got a bad fire!

876
01:18:18,732 --> 01:18:20,600
We're burning up in here!

877
01:18:31,478 --> 01:18:34,981
Mr. Armstrong? I have Deke
Slayton on the phone for you.

878
01:18:35,215 --> 01:18:36,216
Oh.

879
01:18:36,549 --> 01:18:37,717
Right this way.

880
01:18:45,925 --> 01:18:47,160
Thank you.

881
01:18:47,327 --> 01:18:48,595
Well, I'm glad you called.

882
01:18:48,762 --> 01:18:51,231
I'm not sure if I'm helping
or hurting over here.

883
01:18:51,398 --> 01:18:53,800
Neil, we had a problem
with the plugs-out test.

884
01:18:53,967 --> 01:18:56,836
Well, that's why
we have tests, right?

885
01:18:57,300 --> 01:18:58,505
We'll figure it out.

886
01:18:58,672 --> 01:19:00,240
There was a fire.

887
01:19:01,941 --> 01:19:04,444
God, there's no easy way
to say this.

888
01:19:04,978 --> 01:19:06,980
Ed, Gus, and Roger...

889
01:19:08,114 --> 01:19:09,482
They're gone.

890
01:19:14,454 --> 01:19:17,691
We think it was a wiring issue.
A spark in all that oxygen.

891
01:19:17,791 --> 01:19:19,626
It happened very quickly.

892
01:19:19,759 --> 01:19:22,862
Now, listen, we need you guys
to head back to the hotel.

893
01:19:23,290 --> 01:19:24,597
The press is gonna be
all over this.

894
01:19:24,664 --> 01:19:27,267
Congress is gonna be
calling for investigations.

895
01:19:27,767 --> 01:19:30,804
We just don't want you guys
in the middle of all that.

896
01:19:32,372 --> 01:19:34,274
Do you understand?

897
01:19:36,109 --> 01:19:37,277
Yeah.

898
01:19:39,879 --> 01:19:41,214
All right, then.

899
01:19:44,117 --> 01:19:45,452
Okay.

900
01:20:16,683 --> 01:20:20,220
A lot of people forget about
the influence that the lunar program has

901
01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:22,689
on the raising of our young
people in the country.

902
01:20:22,922 --> 01:20:25,910
I think that if a civilization
doesn't look out,

903
01:20:25,191 --> 01:20:27,861
if it doesn't try to
expand its horizons,

904
01:20:27,927 --> 01:20:31,331
then we're not going
to progress as a nation.

905
01:20:33,990 --> 01:20:34,868
At 10:30 tonight,
Eastern Time,

906
01:20:34,901 --> 01:20:38,271
rescue teams began to remove the
bodies of the three astronauts

907
01:20:38,371 --> 01:20:40,740
from the charred spacecraft.

908
01:20:40,907 --> 01:20:45,211
A NASA spokesman said the dead astronauts
were left in the ship for four hours

909
01:20:45,278 --> 01:20:47,947
to aid the investigation
into the tragedy.

910
01:20:49,249 --> 01:20:51,584
And according to the latest
information from NASA

911
01:20:51,685 --> 01:20:53,620
at the Manned Spacecraft
Center in Houston,

912
01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:57,357
the first Apollo flight, which
was scheduled for February...

913
01:21:09,536 --> 01:21:12,439
Winds are pretty rough today.
Keep an eye on your yaw.

914
01:21:13,730 --> 01:21:14,607
Copy. Correcting.

915
01:21:25,385 --> 01:21:26,486
1,000 feet.

916
01:21:26,653 --> 01:21:27,654
Switching to lunar mode.

917
01:21:31,291 --> 01:21:32,559
Final landing approach.

918
01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:37,497
You're too low. Climb!

919
01:21:40,166 --> 01:21:41,167
Control is degrading.

920
01:21:42,135 --> 01:21:43,236
Slow your rates.

921
01:21:44,304 --> 01:21:45,905
Do you read?

922
01:21:46,606 --> 01:21:47,607
Neil?

923
01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:53,506
The vehicle's not safe.

924
01:22:53,573 --> 01:22:55,842
Unfortunately, it's the best
simulation we have.

925
01:22:55,909 --> 01:22:57,510
And you and the others
are too valuable.

926
01:22:57,577 --> 01:22:59,312
It's a fly-by-wire system
that's got no backup.

927
01:22:59,346 --> 01:23:00,747
The ejection seat
is the backup.

928
01:23:00,847 --> 01:23:02,849
Political fallout from another
accident will compromise our...

929
01:23:02,882 --> 01:23:05,752
With all due respect, sir, it's not my job
to worry about the political fallout.

930
01:23:05,752 --> 01:23:07,654
The damn thing could've killed you.
Well, it didn't.

931
01:23:07,687 --> 01:23:09,422
A split second more
and you would not be...

932
01:23:09,522 --> 01:23:10,590
Well, we need to fail.

933
01:23:10,690 --> 01:23:13,326
We need to fail down here,
so we don't fail up there.

934
01:23:13,393 --> 01:23:14,828
Okay, Neil, Neil.

935
01:23:15,428 --> 01:23:17,530
At what cost, huh?

936
01:23:18,498 --> 01:23:20,660
At what cost?

937
01:23:20,734 --> 01:23:25,380
Well, it's a little bit late for
that question, isn't it, sir?

938
01:23:33,460 --> 01:23:35,181
They raise
their voices, their placards,

939
01:23:35,215 --> 01:23:36,683
and they march
against the government.

940
01:23:36,750 --> 01:23:39,352
But some go farther, burning
Selective Service cards

941
01:23:39,519 --> 01:23:40,754
and obstructing the draft.

942
01:23:40,887 --> 01:23:44,557
Most dissenters confine themselves
to this kind of protest activity.

943
01:23:44,724 --> 01:23:47,861
Hey! Hey! LBJ!
How many kids did you kill today?

944
01:23:48,628 --> 01:23:52,799
Hey! Hey! LBJ! How many
kids did you kill today?

945
01:23:57,237 --> 01:23:58,371
Pat?

946
01:24:12,986 --> 01:24:14,540
Pat?

947
01:24:15,889 --> 01:24:16,990
You okay?

948
01:24:17,323 --> 01:24:18,625
Yes.

949
01:24:36,843 --> 01:24:38,345
Why don't we go inside?

950
01:25:06,272 --> 01:25:07,273
Hi.

951
01:25:12,379 --> 01:25:13,947
Are you okay? Jesus!

952
01:25:14,347 --> 01:25:15,482
Oh, I'm fine.

953
01:25:15,715 --> 01:25:16,716
Look at your face.

954
01:25:16,850 --> 01:25:17,984
Excuse me.

955
01:25:21,721 --> 01:25:23,289
Dad, wanna come play?

956
01:25:23,523 --> 01:25:24,624
- Ricky.
- Uh...

957
01:25:25,325 --> 01:25:27,327
Boys, go on. Go on.

958
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,396
I know, I know, I know.
Dad's fine.

959
01:25:29,496 --> 01:25:32,132
Go on, go back outside.
Go back, go back.

960
01:25:36,836 --> 01:25:38,905
What happened?

961
01:25:39,172 --> 01:25:40,173
Um...

962
01:25:43,309 --> 01:25:44,511
I, uh...
Jesus.

963
01:25:44,577 --> 01:25:47,914
I just remembered I left
something at the office.

964
01:26:02,429 --> 01:26:05,732
You've lately taken a
couple of swipes at the space program.

965
01:26:05,932 --> 01:26:08,935
I think it would be interesting
to talk more about

966
01:26:09,350 --> 01:26:11,838
whether this is the proper thing
to do with the public treasury.

967
01:26:11,905 --> 01:26:13,573
The sort of dreams
I would have

968
01:26:13,673 --> 01:26:16,420
would be a habitable
New York City, for instance.

969
01:26:16,109 --> 01:26:18,945
It would seem to me that that would
be a reasonable thing to do.

970
01:26:19,212 --> 01:26:21,948
What has been the
reaction of your friends in this?

971
01:26:22,480 --> 01:26:24,170
Well, they mostly
think that it's ridiculous

972
01:26:24,500 --> 01:26:25,685
that we're spending
so much money

973
01:26:25,752 --> 01:26:28,221
to go somewhere where we
don't know anything about.

974
01:26:28,288 --> 01:26:31,558
And that the money could be used
for a lot more helpful things.

975
01:26:37,697 --> 01:26:39,466
Power to the people!

976
01:26:39,466 --> 01:26:41,601
A rat done bit my sister Nell

977
01:26:41,768 --> 01:26:43,470
With Whitey on the Moon

978
01:26:44,270 --> 01:26:46,439
Her face and arms
begin to swell

979
01:26:46,606 --> 01:26:48,208
And Whitey's on the Moon

980
01:26:49,409 --> 01:26:51,311
I can't pay no doctor bills

981
01:26:51,578 --> 01:26:53,213
But Whitey's on the Moon

982
01:26:54,280 --> 01:26:56,383
Ten years from now
I'll be payin' still

983
01:26:56,583 --> 01:26:58,451
While Whitey's on the Moon

984
01:26:59,152 --> 01:27:03,490
The man just upped my rent last
night and Whitey's on the Moon

985
01:27:04,124 --> 01:27:05,992
No hot water
no toilets, no lights

986
01:27:06,159 --> 01:27:07,827
But Whitey's on the Moon

987
01:27:09,329 --> 01:27:11,631
I wonder why he's upping me

988
01:27:11,798 --> 01:27:13,400
'Cause Whitey's on the Moon?

989
01:27:14,234 --> 01:27:16,803
Well, I was already
giving him, like, 50 a week

990
01:27:16,970 --> 01:27:18,505
And Whitey's on the Moon

991
01:27:18,605 --> 01:27:20,140
Jesus, that's a big mother.

992
01:27:20,273 --> 01:27:21,808
It's a political rush job.

993
01:27:22,750 --> 01:27:24,110
Congress wouldn't fund us
to come in second.

994
01:27:24,678 --> 01:27:26,980
Why else would NASA
be sending a rocket

995
01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:29,482
that's had one issue
after another to the Moon?

996
01:27:29,916 --> 01:27:31,951
Thanks for the insight, Buzz.

997
01:27:34,354 --> 01:27:36,122
Always a pleasure with you.

998
01:27:38,525 --> 01:27:40,593
It doesn't matter,
he's not in the lunar lottery.

999
01:27:40,660 --> 01:27:41,861
And you are?

1000
01:27:42,950 --> 01:27:46,320
Well, the only guys they let on
the LLTV since Neil's accident

1001
01:27:46,199 --> 01:27:47,333
are ones that might land.

1002
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:49,690
So you think
you're going to the Moon?

1003
01:27:49,502 --> 01:27:51,538
It's been up for grabs
since Gus died.

1004
01:27:53,373 --> 01:27:55,642
I'm just saying
what you're thinking.

1005
01:28:00,814 --> 01:28:02,382
Well, maybe you shouldn't.

1006
01:28:07,954 --> 01:28:11,725
Apollo 8 clearing the
VAB and headed toward the launchpad.

1007
01:28:17,731 --> 01:28:19,199
Hell of a rocket.

1008
01:28:20,330 --> 01:28:21,234
Yeah.

1009
01:28:22,502 --> 01:28:25,705
Everything stays on track,
11's gonna be the landing.

1010
01:28:25,805 --> 01:28:28,410
I talked to Bob,
everyone's in agreement.

1011
01:28:28,174 --> 01:28:30,100
We'd like you to command.

1012
01:28:37,217 --> 01:28:38,351
Okay.

1013
01:28:44,224 --> 01:28:46,260
...helicopter vectored that way.

1014
01:28:46,590 --> 01:28:49,620
It looks like a red dot
with a long, long tail.

1015
01:28:49,262 --> 01:28:51,398
A long plume.
That's got to be the spacecraft.

1016
01:28:51,564 --> 01:28:53,933
That has to be
Apollo 10 reentering.

1017
01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:57,437
And so,
the flight of Apollo 10

1018
01:28:57,537 --> 01:29:01,374
has performed the major
function of its mission.

1019
01:29:01,441 --> 01:29:04,511
It has proved, through these
daring three astronauts,

1020
01:29:04,577 --> 01:29:07,213
that all of the systems
work properly

1021
01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:11,751
and that there should be no reason why
man cannot, perhaps as early as July,

1022
01:29:11,851 --> 01:29:15,722
land on that picked spot
on the Moon's equator.

1023
01:29:15,889 --> 01:29:19,559
These are sailors of the sky,
and what we've seen

1024
01:29:19,726 --> 01:29:25,980
and heard today make the great ocean
voyages of the earthbound seem,

1025
01:29:25,265 --> 01:29:27,267
well, earthbound indeed.

1026
01:29:27,367 --> 01:29:30,403
For as the poet wrote,
the crew of Apollo 10

1027
01:29:30,470 --> 01:29:33,373
has "slipped
the surly bonds of Earth"

1028
01:29:33,540 --> 01:29:35,241
and carried us over
into tomorrow.

1029
01:29:35,308 --> 01:29:36,609
In the past few hours,

1030
01:29:36,710 --> 01:29:39,379
man has come closer to the
Moon than ever in his history.

1031
01:29:39,646 --> 01:29:42,480
There were those
terrifying moments when...

1032
01:29:42,115 --> 01:29:43,950
Mom, what's wrong?
Hmm?

1033
01:29:44,651 --> 01:29:46,860
What's wrong?

1034
01:29:46,886 --> 01:29:48,321
Nothing, honey.

1035
01:29:49,756 --> 01:29:51,725
Your dad's going
to the Moon.

1036
01:29:52,425 --> 01:29:53,460
Okay.

1037
01:29:55,462 --> 01:29:57,130
Can I go outside?

1038
01:29:57,897 --> 01:29:59,132
Sure.

1039
01:30:04,471 --> 01:30:09,109
Uh, we're here today
to talk about the forthcoming flight.

1040
01:30:09,175 --> 01:30:11,745
But we're able
to talk about it

1041
01:30:11,811 --> 01:30:13,813
because of previous flights.

1042
01:30:14,814 --> 01:30:17,183
Every flight took on
new objectives,

1043
01:30:17,584 --> 01:30:21,354
and left us with very few
additions to be completed.

1044
01:30:21,755 --> 01:30:23,156
We're very grateful
to those people

1045
01:30:23,256 --> 01:30:25,910
who made it possible for us
to be here today.

1046
01:30:26,192 --> 01:30:28,940
All right,
we'll take some questions now.

1047
01:30:28,962 --> 01:30:29,963
Jim?

1048
01:30:30,300 --> 01:30:32,799
Neil, when you learned you were
going to command this flight,

1049
01:30:32,966 --> 01:30:35,301
were you surprised?
Overjoyed?

1050
01:30:35,702 --> 01:30:37,300
I was pleased.

1051
01:30:37,103 --> 01:30:39,105
Okay, but how would you
compare this feeling

1052
01:30:39,172 --> 01:30:41,675
to winning an automobile or
being selected as an astronaut?

1053
01:30:44,477 --> 01:30:45,979
I was pleased.

1054
01:30:47,514 --> 01:30:48,515
Brian?

1055
01:30:48,615 --> 01:30:50,950
Neil, if it does turn out,

1056
01:30:51,217 --> 01:30:52,652
you'll go down in history.

1057
01:30:52,719 --> 01:30:55,488
What kind of thoughts do you have about
that when the thought hits you...

1058
01:30:55,522 --> 01:30:57,457
"Uh, gosh, suppose
that flight's successful..."

1059
01:30:57,524 --> 01:30:59,359
We're planning on that flight
being successful.

1060
01:30:59,826 --> 01:31:00,894
Uh...

1061
01:31:01,461 --> 01:31:04,831
I just meant how you feel
about being a part of history.

1062
01:31:05,699 --> 01:31:07,834
I think I can shed
some light here.

1063
01:31:08,835 --> 01:31:10,637
It's a responsibility,

1064
01:31:11,671 --> 01:31:14,400
but it's exciting
to be the first.

1065
01:31:14,908 --> 01:31:16,843
Even my wife is excited.

1066
01:31:16,910 --> 01:31:20,180
She keeps slipping jewelry
into my PPK.

1067
01:31:21,381 --> 01:31:23,516
You're planning on taking
some of her jewelry to the Moon, Buzz?

1068
01:31:23,550 --> 01:31:24,584
Sure.

1069
01:31:24,718 --> 01:31:28,355
What fella wouldn't wanna
give his wife bragging rights?

1070
01:31:28,988 --> 01:31:30,230
Neil,

1071
01:31:30,900 --> 01:31:31,591
will you take anything?

1072
01:31:32,492 --> 01:31:34,728
Uh, if I had a choice,
I'd take more fuel.

1073
01:31:35,895 --> 01:31:37,664
All right,
next question.

1074
01:31:50,110 --> 01:31:52,412
I thought you were
gonna talk to the boys.

1075
01:31:53,460 --> 01:31:55,480
What did you
want me to say?

1076
01:31:56,416 --> 01:31:58,218
What do you wanna say?

1077
01:31:58,284 --> 01:32:00,420
You're the one
that's going away.

1078
01:32:00,520 --> 01:32:03,423
Well, it's too late now.
They're asleep.

1079
01:32:05,892 --> 01:32:07,394
No, they're not, Neil.

1080
01:32:08,395 --> 01:32:10,630
You know they're not.

1081
01:32:10,697 --> 01:32:12,465
Why can't you talk to them?

1082
01:32:13,733 --> 01:32:15,268
What are you doing?

1083
01:32:17,904 --> 01:32:18,905
Uh...

1084
01:32:19,305 --> 01:32:20,473
I'm packing.

1085
01:32:21,541 --> 01:32:25,378
No. You're just killing time
until you can get in the car.

1086
01:32:31,651 --> 01:32:33,286
Okay.
Okay.

1087
01:32:37,590 --> 01:32:39,659
Neil, I need you
to talk to the boys.

1088
01:32:41,961 --> 01:32:43,430
Can you hear me?

1089
01:32:45,331 --> 01:32:47,333
I need you to talk to the boys.
What are you doing?

1090
01:32:48,601 --> 01:32:49,669
Stop.
I'm going to work.

1091
01:32:49,769 --> 01:32:51,710
Well, just stop it.

1092
01:32:51,237 --> 01:32:53,640
Just stop...
Just stop packing!

1093
01:33:07,787 --> 01:33:09,989
What are the chances
you're not coming back?

1094
01:33:11,491 --> 01:33:14,940
Hmm? What are the chances this is the
last time the boys are gonna see you?

1095
01:33:14,127 --> 01:33:15,762
Well, I can't give you
an exact number.

1096
01:33:15,829 --> 01:33:18,765
I don't want
a ****ing number, Neil!

1097
01:33:21,334 --> 01:33:24,804
It's not zero, is it?
Is it?

1098
01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:29,542
No.
No, it's not.

1099
01:33:31,111 --> 01:33:32,879
Pat doesn't have a husband.

1100
01:33:33,947 --> 01:33:37,350
Those kids, they don't
have a father anymore.

1101
01:33:39,652 --> 01:33:41,488
Do you understand
what that means?

1102
01:33:43,523 --> 01:33:46,292
What are the chances that's
gonna be Ricky and Mark?

1103
01:33:47,727 --> 01:33:51,698
And I... I can't tell 'em
that their dad spent

1104
01:33:51,865 --> 01:33:54,401
the last few minutes
packing his briefcase!

1105
01:33:56,703 --> 01:33:58,304
You're gonna sit 'em down.

1106
01:33:58,538 --> 01:34:00,600
Both of them.

1107
01:34:00,173 --> 01:34:03,576
And you're gonna prepare them for the
fact that you might not ever come home.

1108
01:34:03,810 --> 01:34:06,379
You're doing that. You.

1109
01:34:07,347 --> 01:34:08,648
Not me.

1110
01:34:10,417 --> 01:34:11,651
I'm done.

1111
01:34:18,591 --> 01:34:21,327
So you better start thinking
about what you're gonna say.

1112
01:34:43,783 --> 01:34:47,887
Jimmy asked what you're gonna
say when you get onto the Moon.

1113
01:34:52,959 --> 01:34:56,529
Well, we're not sure we're
gonna get onto the Moon. Uh...

1114
01:34:57,897 --> 01:35:00,867
A lot of things have to go
right before that happens.

1115
01:35:01,901 --> 01:35:04,237
How long
will you be gone?

1116
01:35:04,904 --> 01:35:05,905
Um...

1117
01:35:05,972 --> 01:35:08,108
Well, we launch in 10 days,
we'll be up for eight,

1118
01:35:08,208 --> 01:35:10,430
and then about a month
in quarantine.

1119
01:35:10,110 --> 01:35:11,611
What's quarantine?

1120
01:35:12,746 --> 01:35:15,281
We'll be in isolation.

1121
01:35:18,840 --> 01:35:20,620
Uh, to protect in case we

1122
01:35:22,155 --> 01:35:25,258
carry any diseases
from the lunar surface

1123
01:35:26,590 --> 01:35:29,496
or something of that nature.
It's not likely, but it's a precaution.

1124
01:35:31,231 --> 01:35:33,900
So you won't be here
for my swim meet?

1125
01:35:43,777 --> 01:35:44,911
No.

1126
01:35:47,614 --> 01:35:48,782
Sorry.

1127
01:35:59,793 --> 01:36:02,195
Does anyone have
any other questions?

1128
01:36:04,964 --> 01:36:06,866
Do you think
you're coming back?

1129
01:36:08,340 --> 01:36:10,103
We have real confidence
in the mission.

1130
01:36:10,437 --> 01:36:12,539
And, uh,
there are some risks,

1131
01:36:12,639 --> 01:36:15,208
but we have every intention
of coming back.

1132
01:36:15,542 --> 01:36:17,444
But you might not.

1133
01:36:32,158 --> 01:36:33,560
That's right.

1134
01:36:43,169 --> 01:36:44,237
Okay.

1135
01:36:45,905 --> 01:36:47,507
Okay. Time for bed.

1136
01:37:23,209 --> 01:37:28,114
"Fate has ordained that the men who
went to the Moon to explore in peace

1137
01:37:28,415 --> 01:37:31,117
"will stay on the Moon
to rest in peace.

1138
01:37:31,418 --> 01:37:35,121
"These brave men,
Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin,

1139
01:37:35,221 --> 01:37:38,258
"know there is no hope
for their recovery.

1140
01:37:38,725 --> 01:37:41,361
"They will be mourned
by their families.

1141
01:37:41,928 --> 01:37:43,797
"They will be mourned
by a Mother Earth

1142
01:37:43,963 --> 01:37:47,901
"that dared send two of her
sons into the unknown.

1143
01:37:49,202 --> 01:37:52,972
"For every human being who looks up
at the Moon in the nights to come

1144
01:37:53,139 --> 01:37:56,810
"will know that there is
some corner of another world

1145
01:37:56,976 --> 01:37:59,379
"that is forever mankind."

1146
01:38:00,380 --> 01:38:05,118
"Prior to the statement, President will
telephone each of the widows-to-be.

1147
01:38:05,585 --> 01:38:09,222
"A clergyman will adopt the same
procedure as a burial at sea,

1148
01:38:09,889 --> 01:38:13,893
"commending their souls
to the deepest of the deep."

1149
01:38:15,595 --> 01:38:16,963
Any thoughts?

1150
01:38:18,965 --> 01:38:20,600
Sounds fine.

1151
01:41:49,376 --> 01:41:51,378
T-minus
two minutes and counting.

1152
01:42:08,695 --> 01:42:11,297
Twenty seconds and counting.

1153
01:42:12,665 --> 01:42:15,835
T-minus 15 seconds.
Guidance is internal.

1154
01:42:16,169 --> 01:42:19,906
12, 11, 10, 9...

1155
01:42:20,600 --> 01:42:22,308
Ignition sequence start.

1156
01:43:27,807 --> 01:43:29,642
Tower cleared.

1157
01:44:29,350 --> 01:44:31,204
Mark. Mode One Charlie.

1158
01:44:31,304 --> 01:44:33,606
Houston, you are a go
for staging.

1159
01:45:00,200 --> 01:45:02,902
This is Apollo Control.
We're a minute from ignition

1160
01:45:02,902 --> 01:45:05,405
on trans-lunar
injection maneuver.

1161
01:45:05,638 --> 01:45:08,410
Okay, we're operate. 59:59.

1162
01:45:23,890 --> 01:45:28,595
Apollo 11, we track your
speed increasing to 36,000 feet per second.

1163
01:45:28,695 --> 01:45:30,663
You are now
leaving Earth orbit.

1164
01:45:30,764 --> 01:45:32,365
Apollo 11, roger.

1165
01:45:42,800 --> 01:45:43,677
We have cutoff.

1166
01:45:43,943 --> 01:45:45,450
Roger, 11.

1167
01:45:45,780 --> 01:45:47,380
It certainly looks like
you're well on your way now.

1168
01:45:47,447 --> 01:45:49,416
Okay, Houston,
we're about to SEP.

1169
01:45:49,582 --> 01:45:52,252
Mike, you got it?
It's your ship now.

1170
01:46:27,787 --> 01:46:29,589
And you can start PTC

1171
01:46:29,723 --> 01:46:30,824
at your convenience.

1172
01:46:30,990 --> 01:46:33,590
All right.
Thank you, Houston.

1173
01:46:40,834 --> 01:46:42,435
That smells funny.

1174
01:46:42,502 --> 01:46:44,838
Like, uh,
charred electrical insulation.

1175
01:46:46,573 --> 01:46:48,341
Might just be rocket fumes.

1176
01:46:50,677 --> 01:46:52,946
- Did you bring any music?
- No.

1177
01:46:53,980 --> 01:46:55,281
Here, Buzz.

1178
01:47:16,636 --> 01:47:19,339
Hey, Houston, are you hearing this?

1179
01:48:29,509 --> 01:48:32,512
Apollo 11,
now entering lunar orbit.

1180
01:48:32,579 --> 01:48:36,116
Your roll should give you a good
view in about two minutes. Over.

1181
01:48:36,950 --> 01:48:40,120
When you have a free minute, could
you give us your onboard readout

1182
01:48:40,220 --> 01:48:43,123
of N2 tank Bravo, please?

1183
01:48:43,289 --> 01:48:45,425
Nitrogen tank Bravo
is showing

1184
01:48:45,592 --> 01:48:48,128
1960, something like that.

1185
01:48:48,294 --> 01:48:49,396
Roger.

1186
01:49:39,312 --> 01:49:41,414
Would you look at that?

1187
01:50:07,107 --> 01:50:08,575
This is a damn
three-ring circus.

1188
01:50:08,608 --> 01:50:11,978
I got a fuel cell purge in progress,
I'm watching an AUTO maneuver and...

1189
01:50:12,450 --> 01:50:13,480
Jesus Christ!

1190
01:50:13,546 --> 01:50:14,981
Normal, normal.

1191
01:50:15,480 --> 01:50:17,617
Houston, stand by
for AUTO alarm.

1192
01:50:18,180 --> 01:50:19,953
Neil, the, uh...
The voice tape recorder,

1193
01:50:20,200 --> 01:50:21,488
you know where that is?
I don't know.

1194
01:50:21,554 --> 01:50:23,790
All this food and stuff up
here, you want any of that?

1195
01:50:23,957 --> 01:50:24,958
No.

1196
01:50:25,158 --> 01:50:26,159
All right.

1197
01:50:26,359 --> 01:50:29,329
What about this chewing gum?
You want any of that?

1198
01:50:29,562 --> 01:50:30,730
Mike.

1199
01:50:34,901 --> 01:50:36,703
Come back, will you?

1200
01:50:38,838 --> 01:50:40,674
Apollo 11, Houston.

1201
01:50:40,740 --> 01:50:44,811
Let us know when you've entered the
LEM and closed up the hatch. Over.

1202
01:50:57,991 --> 01:51:01,428
Eagle, this is Houston.
We see the optics zero switch on.

1203
01:51:01,528 --> 01:51:03,630
Before you take some marks,

1204
01:51:03,163 --> 01:51:06,499
don't forget to cycle it back
off and on, and then on. Over.

1205
01:51:13,730 --> 01:51:14,841
Eagle, Houston,
could you give us a hack

1206
01:51:14,908 --> 01:51:17,711
on the time that you
switched to LEM power

1207
01:51:17,777 --> 01:51:21,748
and also verify that we're
on glycol pump 1? Over.

1208
01:51:23,516 --> 01:51:25,618
This is Eagle,
we're on pump 1.

1209
01:51:26,860 --> 01:51:28,210
- Roger.
- Eagle, Columbia.

1210
01:51:30,230 --> 01:51:31,291
I'm ready to button up
the hatch.

1211
01:51:31,358 --> 01:51:32,359
Roger.

1212
01:51:32,959 --> 01:51:36,796
I'm gonna start a maneuver
now to our undocking attitude.

1213
01:51:38,980 --> 01:51:39,699
Okay.

1214
01:52:02,655 --> 01:52:06,459
How about using, as an undocking
time, 100 hours and 12 minutes?

1215
01:52:07,927 --> 01:52:09,562
What have you got for AOS?

1216
01:52:09,629 --> 01:52:12,432
I have 100 hours
and 16 minutes.

1217
01:52:12,732 --> 01:52:15,668
Eagle, keep an
eye on your descent engine fuel.

1218
01:52:15,835 --> 01:52:19,720
Continuous burn time is
limited to 910 seconds.

1219
01:52:19,339 --> 01:52:20,740
Over.

1220
01:52:22,509 --> 01:52:26,346
Apollo 11, Houston,
we are go for undocking. Over.

1221
01:52:38,792 --> 01:52:40,593
Fifteen seconds.

1222
01:52:46,800 --> 01:52:48,601
Okay, there you go.

1223
01:53:15,295 --> 01:53:18,640
Eagle, Houston.
We see you on the steerable. Over.

1224
01:53:18,164 --> 01:53:19,566
The Eagle is undocked.

1225
01:53:19,666 --> 01:53:21,670
Roger. How does it look?

1226
01:53:21,670 --> 01:53:22,902
The Eagle has wings.

1227
01:53:58,505 --> 01:53:59,773
It just won't stay.

1228
01:54:02,108 --> 01:54:03,843
Eagle, report status. Over.

1229
01:54:03,877 --> 01:54:05,445
We'll have to
tell them about that.

1230
01:54:06,346 --> 01:54:08,181
Let's prep for descent.

1231
01:54:08,848 --> 01:54:11,217
Eagle, Houston.
You're a go for powered descent.

1232
01:54:11,251 --> 01:54:12,886
Roger. Read you.

1233
01:54:18,591 --> 01:54:21,270
Altitude light's on,
we don't have radar data.

1234
01:54:26,933 --> 01:54:28,401
Let's proceed.

1235
01:54:30,203 --> 01:54:31,738
Proceed.

1236
01:54:32,272 --> 01:54:33,406
One...

1237
01:54:34,740 --> 01:54:35,750
Zero...

1238
01:54:35,241 --> 01:54:36,443
Ignition.

1239
01:54:47,220 --> 01:54:48,822
Program alarm.

1240
01:54:49,389 --> 01:54:50,890
What's a 1202 alarm?

1241
01:54:51,570 --> 01:54:52,425
I don't know.

1242
01:54:52,592 --> 01:54:55,495
Houston, give us a reading
on the 1202 program alarm.

1243
01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:58,231
Roger, we got you.
We're a go on that alarm.

1244
01:55:04,471 --> 01:55:05,972
Same alarm.

1245
01:55:06,139 --> 01:55:08,800
Roger.
We're a go on that alarm.

1246
01:55:33,299 --> 01:55:34,834
Okay, 3,000 at 70.

1247
01:55:34,934 --> 01:55:36,503
Roger. Understand.

1248
01:55:37,300 --> 01:55:39,372
Program alarm 1201.

1249
01:55:39,472 --> 01:55:41,307
Roger. 1201 alarm.

1250
01:55:45,311 --> 01:55:47,313
Same type. We're go.

1251
01:56:20,513 --> 01:56:22,415
Pretty rocky area.

1252
01:56:26,186 --> 01:56:28,355
Those boulders
are as big as cars.

1253
01:56:28,555 --> 01:56:29,889
We can't land there.

1254
01:56:38,531 --> 01:56:39,766
Going to manual.

1255
01:56:51,778 --> 01:56:53,179
540 feet, down to 30.

1256
01:56:53,747 --> 01:56:55,281
Watch your fuel.

1257
01:56:56,249 --> 01:56:57,951
330.

1258
01:56:58,184 --> 01:56:59,953
300 feet,
down three and a half.

1259
01:57:05,191 --> 01:57:06,359
Fuel's at 8%.

1260
01:57:10,697 --> 01:57:13,133
The radar's lost
track of the surface again.

1261
01:57:14,134 --> 01:57:16,436
160 feet,
six and a half down.

1262
01:57:17,370 --> 01:57:19,305
Five and a half down,
nine forward.

1263
01:57:23,710 --> 01:57:25,779
Low level. Low level.

1264
01:57:26,413 --> 01:57:27,647
120 feet.

1265
01:57:28,810 --> 01:57:29,949
5% fuel remaining.

1266
01:57:32,485 --> 01:57:33,653
Quantity light!

1267
01:57:34,220 --> 01:57:37,757
Ninety-four seconds to bingo.
114's a mandatory abort.

1268
01:57:42,562 --> 01:57:44,130
Down to half, six forward.

1269
01:57:45,980 --> 01:57:46,966
Stand by for 60. Rog.

1270
01:57:47,400 --> 01:57:49,669
Sixty seconds.

1271
01:57:49,669 --> 01:57:51,271
40 feet, down two and a half.

1272
01:57:58,244 --> 01:57:59,512
Stand by for 30.

1273
01:57:59,512 --> 01:58:01,247
- Thirty seconds.
- Forward.

1274
01:58:04,818 --> 01:58:06,886
20 feet, down a half!

1275
01:58:12,792 --> 01:58:15,862
Faint shadow.
Drifting forward, just a little bit.

1276
01:58:47,727 --> 01:58:49,562
Contact light.

1277
01:58:51,164 --> 01:58:52,799
Shutdown.

1278
01:59:03,910 --> 01:59:06,179
We copy, you're down, Eagle.

1279
01:59:10,383 --> 01:59:11,685
Houston,

1280
01:59:12,185 --> 01:59:13,887
Tranquility Base here.

1281
01:59:16,723 --> 01:59:18,558
The Eagle has landed.

1282
01:59:19,920 --> 01:59:20,627
Roger, Tranquility.

1283
01:59:20,660 --> 01:59:22,162
We copy on the ground.

1284
01:59:22,228 --> 01:59:24,640
You got a bunch of guys
about to turn blue.

1285
01:59:24,164 --> 01:59:26,166
We're breathing again.
Thanks a lot.

1286
01:59:28,501 --> 01:59:30,170
Thank you.

1287
01:59:33,540 --> 01:59:35,508
Very smooth touchdown.

1288
02:01:24,117 --> 02:01:27,620
Okay, Neil, we can
see you coming down the ladder now.

1289
02:01:38,665 --> 02:01:40,967
Okay, I just checked.
Uh...

1290
02:01:41,401 --> 02:01:44,404
Coming back up to that
first step, Buzz, it's, uh...

1291
02:01:46,172 --> 02:01:50,543
The strut hasn't collapsed too far,
but it's adequate to get back up.

1292
02:01:51,478 --> 02:01:52,579
Roger, we copy.

1293
02:01:52,579 --> 02:01:54,800
Takes a pretty good
little jump.

1294
02:02:11,765 --> 02:02:13,366
Buzz, this is Houston.

1295
02:02:13,400 --> 02:02:16,236
F2, 1/160 a second

1296
02:02:16,569 --> 02:02:19,773
for shadow photography
on the sequence camera.

1297
02:02:20,740 --> 02:02:22,275
Okay.

1298
02:02:26,790 --> 02:02:28,515
I'm, uh,
at the foot of the ladder.

1299
02:02:28,581 --> 02:02:34,387
The LEM footbeds are only,
uh, depressed in the surface

1300
02:02:34,454 --> 02:02:37,457
about one or two inches.

1301
02:02:37,557 --> 02:02:41,194
Although, the surface
appears to be, uh,

1302
02:02:42,128 --> 02:02:45,131
very, very fine grain
as you get close to it.

1303
02:02:45,231 --> 02:02:48,635
It's almost like a powder
down there.

1304
02:02:49,302 --> 02:02:50,904
Very fine.

1305
02:03:00,213 --> 02:03:02,449
I'm gonna step off
the LEM now.

1306
02:03:13,126 --> 02:03:15,962
That's one
small step for man,

1307
02:03:18,164 --> 02:03:21,334
one giant leap
for mankind.

1308
02:04:51,658 --> 02:04:53,860
Okay, you ready
for me to come out?

1309
02:08:14,694 --> 02:08:19,432
Five, four, three, two, one.

1310
02:08:19,632 --> 02:08:20,734
Ignition.

1311
02:08:30,710 --> 02:08:34,214
...I suppose they
can never really describe to us.

1312
02:08:34,881 --> 02:08:36,182
- Or will we ever know?
- No...

1313
02:08:36,216 --> 02:08:37,450
And it may not be a beauty

1314
02:08:37,550 --> 02:08:40,253
that one can pass on
to future beholders either.

1315
02:08:40,320 --> 02:08:43,123
These first men on the Moon
have seen something

1316
02:08:43,223 --> 02:08:46,292
that men who follow
will have missed.

1317
02:08:46,793 --> 02:08:51,970
They've peered into
another life that we can't follow.

1318
02:08:51,264 --> 02:08:54,801
Bob Simon at Trafalgar Square,
where he joined the thousands

1319
02:08:54,968 --> 02:08:57,270
who watched an immense
television screen

1320
02:08:57,437 --> 02:08:59,472
as the Apollo touched down
on the Moon.

1321
02:08:59,572 --> 02:09:02,609
The average Romanian
thinks of Apollo 11 a little bit

1322
02:09:02,676 --> 02:09:04,477
as his own personal adventure.

1323
02:09:04,577 --> 02:09:08,114
It's been estimated that the audience
was up in the hundreds of millions.

1324
02:09:08,181 --> 02:09:11,951
Perhaps 400 million persons or
so watching this broadcast...

1325
02:09:12,180 --> 02:09:14,320
Countless millions
more listened on the radio

1326
02:09:14,421 --> 02:09:15,855
to the voices from the Moon.

1327
02:09:15,955 --> 02:09:19,192
Never before had so many people
been attuned to one event

1328
02:09:19,459 --> 02:09:20,994
at one time.

1329
02:09:25,765 --> 02:09:26,900
...feats of all time.

1330
02:09:26,933 --> 02:09:28,368
Does it amaze you
that it's taken place?

1331
02:09:28,368 --> 02:09:32,272
It not only amazes me, but I'm certain
that it amazes everybody in this country.

1332
02:09:32,338 --> 02:09:33,940
What do you think of it?

1333
02:09:34,700 --> 02:09:35,642
The Moon,
I hope that sometime

1334
02:09:35,709 --> 02:09:37,177
everybody will go there.

1335
02:09:37,344 --> 02:09:39,946
- Wanna go yourself?
- Oh, yeah, I wish I can go right now.

1336
02:09:39,979 --> 02:09:44,284
I think this is a very
important day. It's a historical day.

1337
02:09:44,351 --> 02:09:48,388
And the whole universe is concerned
about this, the landing on the Moon.

1338
02:09:48,488 --> 02:09:50,390
And as a French woman,
how do you think about it?

1339
02:09:50,490 --> 02:09:52,559
Oh, I think it's wonderful,
I always trusted America

1340
02:09:52,659 --> 02:09:54,194
and I knew
they couldn't fail.

1341
02:09:54,961 --> 02:09:57,130
And in Washington,
an anonymous citizen

1342
02:09:57,197 --> 02:10:01,340
placed a small bouquet on the grave
of John F. Kennedy with a note.

1343
02:10:01,301 --> 02:10:03,903
"Mr. President,
the Eagle has landed."

1344
02:10:04,304 --> 02:10:08,174
And indeed on this day,
as we mark the astronauts' return,

1345
02:10:08,241 --> 02:10:10,477
it's hard not to think back
upon that speech

1346
02:10:10,543 --> 02:10:14,514
our 35th president gave
just seven short years ago.

1347
02:10:14,814 --> 02:10:18,184
If this capsule history
of our progress teaches us anything,

1348
02:10:18,551 --> 02:10:21,354
it is that man,
in his quest for knowledge

1349
02:10:21,488 --> 02:10:24,891
and progress is determined
and cannot be deterred.

1350
02:10:25,392 --> 02:10:27,360
But why, some say,
the Moon?

1351
02:10:28,261 --> 02:10:30,597
Why choose this as our goal?

1352
02:10:31,640 --> 02:10:34,901
And they may well ask,
why climb the highest mountain?

1353
02:10:35,368 --> 02:10:38,538
Why, 35 years ago,
fly the Atlantic?

1354
02:10:39,205 --> 02:10:41,174
Why does Rice play Texas?

1355
02:10:41,574 --> 02:10:43,877
We choose to go to the Moon.

1356
02:10:44,277 --> 02:10:46,413
We choose to go to the Moon.

1357
02:10:48,248 --> 02:10:52,686
We choose to go to the Moon in this
decade and do the other things,

1358
02:10:52,752 --> 02:10:56,589
not because they are easy,
but because they are hard.

1359
02:10:58,191 --> 02:11:00,226
Mrs. Armstrong!
Mrs. Armstrong!

1360
02:11:00,627 --> 02:11:02,195
How do you feel?

1361
02:11:07,701 --> 02:11:09,369
Have you
spoken with your husband?

1362
02:11:09,402 --> 02:11:11,371
Would your sons like to
be astronauts like him?

1363
02:11:11,438 --> 02:11:12,872
Mrs. Armstrong!

1364
02:11:12,939 --> 02:11:14,808
Have all your prayers
been answered?

1365
02:11:15,308 --> 02:11:16,576
Yes, yes, they have.

1366
02:11:16,643 --> 02:11:18,645
How would you
describe the flight?

1367
02:11:19,212 --> 02:11:23,783
Well, uh, I can only say
it was outta this world.

1368
02:11:25,118 --> 02:11:26,252
Thank you.

1369
02:11:27,654 --> 02:11:29,656
They will be quarantined
the full three weeks,

1370
02:11:29,656 --> 02:11:31,825
but there is no sign
of infection or disease.

1371
02:11:35,462 --> 02:11:37,230
Congratulations, Jan.
