Recently, I learned from videos that Grissom was frustrated with the simulators not keeping up with the changes that the capsule were undergoing. Could this have been the reason for hanging a lemon on the simulator?
@joshwilliamson181412 күн бұрын
He was frustrated with the whole ball of wax and making snide comments right up to his death; you can hear him on the loop just before the haunting, "Fire...fire, we got a fire in spacecraft..." The lemon was more a of prop, used in a joking manner, to try to express his views about the problems with the spacecraft. Ice breaker, tension relief, comic relief, name your cliche, but probably all of them in reality. Unfortunately, his concerns were falling on deaf ears, a problem NASA has to this day. All 3 major NASA incidents, all of which occurred end of January beginning of February, share out-right and alarming similarities.

Not mentioned is what caused the crash. The maintenance crew neglected to refuel the attitude thrusters after the flight before. Neil ran out of fuel. Not his fault but being a pilot myself, you ALWAYS check the fuel level before a flight.

Too bad humans will never travel more than a few light minutes...if that, as even NASA estimated that first one to die in trip to Mars would take maybe 5 months, return alive quite impossible. All space satellites will cease to function about the time most recoverable coal is burnt. Oil and gas depleted in about a century...when it costs more in fuel to mine fuel, only scrapings of mines will be possible...by hand, hoof, and the beating hearts of canary mine poison detectors. Future tech fantasies are a cult belief system, all but replacive to analogous theisms and magical thinking.

I briefly met Jim Lovell when he autographed my copy of his Apollo 13 book _Lost Moon,_ before the movie and before _From the Earth to the Moon_ was produced. He's a a real person; by that I mean he's just an ordinary man who's had amazing experiences and showed incredible training and skill. I think that's something we miss, having these types of people to look up to, to encourage us to be like them.

I strongly urge everyone to read "Apollo 8" by Jeffrey Kluger, who also wrote the book that inspired the film 'Apollo 13'. "Apollo 8" was THE BEST book I have ever read in my life, not just about spaceflight but in general. What they accomplished on that single flight to the Moon was incredible and it put NASA ahead in the race to the Moon which was critical since there were delays in getting the Lunar Module ready for flight, but it did fly for the first time on its test flight in Earth orbit on Apollo 9.

They injected more than a little Drama, perhaps too much at times, but without it the film might have suffered to regular audiences, but to space nerds it doesn’t sit right. Another example is how the crew reacted to the initial explosion. In the film they’re frenetic and tense, in reality they were incredibly calm and it barely raised their heart-rate above resting. Also during the LEM burn seen, way too chaotic compared to reality, which was comparatively dull and controlled. But the worst example was the scene where the crew loses it’s cool and fights. Never happened and never would have.
