Talk about the arc of a lifetime. Ed Mitchell was once a working cowboy in New Mexico back in the 1940's. Picturing him sitting around a campfire with some older cowboys who rode back when it was still the Wild West. None of them could have imagined that the young buck in their midst would one day, just some 30 odd years later, be walking on moon that shone above them.

@Juicewrld999 Of course it is - there is no atmosphere and thus no wind up there to make it flutter. There is a horizontal rod attached to the flag pole to make the flag look good instead of just hanging downwards, but the flag is only moving when the astronauts are putting it up or when they touch it, as they move closely by it - and for some time afterwards, since there is no atmosphere there to dampen its oscillations, only inner friction in the pole + rod + flag system.

[@Bjowolf2]

@Juicewrld999 Actually it wasn't - and it was probably blown over during take off by the high velocity exhaust gasses from the ascent module in the A11 case. No it wasn't just 5 ft away, but more like 15 - 20 or so. Anyway the two astronauts had a bit of trouble putting the flag pole up, because it turned out that the lunar soil was pretty hard beneath the thick layer of lunar dust, which of course didn't help either. So on (some of?) the later Apollo missions they would instead put up the flagpole a good bit further away from the LM, and secure the flag pole much better by drilling a hole for it in the hard lunar soil. And these later flag poles with the US flag flying from them still seem to be standing after all these years ( you can see their shadows ), when you look at the "close up" photos ( from a height of 20 - 25 km ) that were taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LOR) that were taken of all 6 Apollo landing sites, when NASA shortly sent the LOR into a more elliptical orbit that allowed it to pass directly over them at relatively low altitudes.

We didn't watch the first Apollo landing live actually - nor the other ones! - we only listened to the intense radio traffic. Many people still believe that they did watch the Apollo landing(s) live, but that is a false memory. What we did watch however - and have been seeing since then - are "video clips" made from the 16 mm film shot by a small film camera placed above Buzz Aldrin's head. A "small" B&W TV camera producing a live TV-signal would have been far too big to sit in that position back in those days. So they had to get the Apollo crews back to Earth first and develop their 16 mm films first, before we could see what their lunar landings actually looked like This is of course also the case with the films that were shot out of the LEM window by the same fixed 16 mm camera - showing the activities of the two Apollo astronauts ( flag mounting, setting up technical equipment etc. ) on the lunar surface.

Often times it deals with not feeling special or chronic low self esteem/insecurities mixed with deep-seated trust issues, likely brought on by trauma, and an insatiable need to feel important; what would make someone feel more important than thinking they know better than most of the people on Earth and all of the scientific community.

[@jim2lane]

As I recall reading, the swaying of the LEM ascent stage was done to keep down weight and complexity of the ascent engine, and also to simplify the code of the LEM's guidance computer. Basically, the ascent engine's nozzle doesn't gimble, instead the RCS is employed during ascent to keep the LEM on the correct trajectory, but there is a lag which is what causes the swaying.

[@kasimirmaser99]

@Крым,Ялта ,Александр. Nope, not stupid at all. There is no air or wind on the moon. The flag had a horizontal metal tube inserted in a pocket sewn along the top edge. That was to hold the flag out and make it look like it was fluttering in the breeze. Otherwise, it would just drape down over the pole and not be very visible. The movement you can see is the flag settling down after being rammed into the lunar surface. With no air, there's no air resistance on the Moon, so it takes a while for the motion to settle down due to inertia. There is solar wind, but that works differently and would not cause the flag to flutter. Solar wind particles have very little mass and you would not notice any movement they might cause.

@@piano4014 As on Earth uneven shadows will be produced with a low sun and uneven surface. The moon's surface is very undulating, with many little hollows and peaks. When light hits an undulating surface at a sharp angle, the length of shadows can elongate or shorten quite significantly. There is no such thing as 'the dark side of the Moon.' The lunar surface is hard rock beneath dust; the LM used a low pressure (for reliability) rocket engine that was firing at only 3,000 pounds thrust before landing so along with the very thin atmosphere and low gravity there was not enough pressure to produce a crater; if you look closely at some pictures of landing sites e.g. Apollo 11 you can see some disturbance under the engine. Rocket exhaust gasses expand much more quickly after leaving the engine nozzle in a vacuum than in an atmosphere and because there is no air resistance on the Moon, the blast deflected the dust sideways in a straight line at high speed - far too fast to settle on the LM’s feet.

​@@archierush868archie, you're a moon-landing fanboy! If only it really happened, that would be fantastic, but unfortunately it didn't.

[@JohneeTruther]

FACT: The Artemis Moon mission in late 2022 took 600 hours to complete the return journey, whereas Apollo 13 54 years before, took only 143 hours to complete the exact same journey. This is despite the fact that the Artemis rocket was far more powerful than the Saturn V used for Apollo 13. NASA are therefore going backwards in technology instead of forward.

[@archierush868]

If you bothered to google the path Artemis 1 took and compared it to Apollo, you’d see why it took longer

An experiment they set up on a previous EVA (that film clip is from their _second_ EVA).

[@dansv1]

It is very much closer than the horizon. It is the Solar Wind Composition Experiment.

I personally love the comments about the flag moving in the wind, whilst they insist filming is carried out within a studio. Aww dude you left the wind machine switched on. Oh, and forgot to light up the stars 😔

"5% fuel left, you're doing good." Apollo program astronauts had bigger balls than most anyone else in aerospace. Not saying modern stuff isn't impressive but I somehow doubt there'll be more manually operated powered descents.

Good thing my wife isn't an astronaut. When the reserve fuel light blinks, she dreads the car will stop any minute, despite me being cool and saying it would run for 70km.

The descent was manual not because the computers were not capable of it but because the astronauts wanted to do it.

Can someone answer me this? On the liftoff why is the camera work so shaky, as if a person is holding it? I'm assuming the camera is mounted to the craft so it should be stable as fuck, except for stabilizing thrusters of course....but the camera is moving around like a found footage film.

[@willoughbykrenzteinburg]

The camera is indeed mounted to the craft - and it is "stable as fuck". You are assuming the camera is moving when the terrain moves. The terrain moves because the orientation of the craft is moving. It's not really difficult to figure out. Do you see the black outline of the ascent module WINDOW? Clearly, the camera is FIXED and NOT MOVING AT ALL with respect to the WINDOW OF THE CRAFT!!!! It's the CRAFT that is moving; not the camera. Jesus.......

They had reliable communication with the module lander. It really was a feat. Lots of math involved. Apollo 13 was the only mission I think that didn’t land on the moon.

[@juniorsir9521]

@@cwstewartjr1973 where do you think we get radio waves and microwaves and heat waves from? The air around us. Even then communication existed even in the early 1900s. So if your phone loses signal take it with your phone company. They should have towers around your area. You’re paying them to provide a service without interruption.
