From the Earth to the Moon (2019): Moon Landing (Clip) | HBO

[@sidneymcdavid]

My dad woke me up 15 minutes before they landed to watch it. I was almost six years old. It was a thrill to watch. I have been a big Apollo fan since. This was such an excellent series to watch. It’s a shame that most of humanity did not care about any of the further Apollo flights other than 13 after the oxygen tank blew up. Even during the J missions when they were driving on the moon, most of humanity never cared. Crazy. Apollo 11 was representative of humanity’s greatest binding moments Apollo in general was the pinnacle of humanity’s technological achievements.

[@stevetheduck1425]

I watched them all. Less and less coverage, but Apollo 15 had a lot of video shot from the rover, so I got to see a couple of astronauts skip away toward a split rock, get smaller, and smaller, until they were tiny below this gigantic broken rock larger than a house. Then the went all the way around it. Try building that on a soundstage using 1960s methods.

[@elessartelcontar9415]

It was a miracle. Most of our tech was very primitive. A great many thongs had to be invented, even new concepts had to be conceived. That we made it there and back 7 times without losing any of them is a huge miracle. I was a little kid and obsessed with space, these guys were my heroes. I grew up in a very rural area in the Cherokee Nation east of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. All the other boys were playing cowboys and "Indians" but my best friend and I used to pretend we were astronauts that landed on Mars. Astronaut Tom Stafford, also from nowhere, Oklahoma, was touring to promote the space program. He had been on Apollo 10 and been within 9 miles of the moon. He visited with me for awhile. I went to see him at 2 different places he spoke at (thanks, Mom, for taking me). It was a highlight of my childhood. He told me that contrary to the non-stop commercials, that astronauts did not drink Tang (a sour powdered orangish foul -tasting drink). He passed away recently and I posted what he had meant to me as a young abused boy on his memorial website. Fly high Mr. Stafford, I'll see you soon. (I have 6 terminal conditions.) 🚀 🧑‍🚀🌛🌠🌌

My whole family was watching the TV that afternoon, and I vividly remember hearing the phrase "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed." As a very interested soon-to-be sixth grader, I had watched almost all of the prior Gemini and Apollo program launches when our school teachers showed them in class on the TV. In 1967, I remember being so sad early one morning at breakfast when my Dad broke the news about the tragic Apollo One fire. But on that July, 1969 afternoon, everyone was all smiles. And later that evening, there was no early bedtime as we all stayed up late to witness the moon walk. My 69 year old Nana was sitting there with us, and I remember looking over at her thinking how amazing a life she had lived being born before the Wright Brothers had ever flown and now seeing two men walk on the lunar surface! I'll never forget this moment if I live to be 100. Thank you for producing a great mini-series! Best,

[@zapdunga12]

Many people do not know this but Neil and Buzz left a lot of commerative items behind on the moon and one was the official patch of the Apollo 1 crew who died in that horrible tragic fire. They were supposed to be the first crew to go to the moon. Let us never forget the bravery of Virgil I. 'GUS' Grissom who was the second man into space aboard Liberty Bell 7, and command pilot for Gemini 3. Let us not forget Edward Higgens White II who was aboard Gemini 4 and who was the first American to walk in Space. And let us not forget Roger Bruce Chaffee, naval officer, aviator and aeronautical engineer for NASA.

This event took place on my fourth birthday. 53 years later, this scene chokes me up, especially Buzz Aldrin's simple message to the world and taking Communion.

And I thank you all for that. And the thought of mankind returning to to the moon gets me even more hopeful. It brings tears to my eyes. Because we are going back.

The reason for the 1202/1201 alarms is that Buzz Aldrin left the rendezvous radar on, so they could quickly locate the CSM, in case they needed to abort. This overloaded the computer, causing the alarms.

The rendezvous radar shouldn't have caused this problem, but the powers supply for the antenna director and the computer interface hardware weren't specc'd to be phase locked - so if you were unlucky about the timing you could end starting up the antenna system out-of-phase with the rest of the computer hardware and it threw erroneous data about the antenna position to the computer. This resulted in the computer sending corrections, but none of the corrections worked, so the errors just stacked up and eventually caused the program queue to fill up.

They had a Lunar Rover set up in the main entry area along with a TV where we could watch, LIVE, the first use of the Rover on the moon.

The crowning achievement of mankind, bar none. Despite two program alarms during the critical part of the descent and his heartbeat racing, Neil Armstrong was as cool as a cucumber, one of the reasons he was chosen to be the first to land the LM. Switching to manual control in order to avoid the boulder field was a very bold move, and very well could have saved them from crashing or even flipping the entire LM over upon landing. I will never forget watching this live on TV as a kid. I was inspired by what I saw then and have been addicted to studying Apollo ever since. I am hoping to live long enough to watch us return to the moon, and watch the first humans land and walk on Mars.

[@dannyh8288]

Fun Fact: at 1:02 you see the LM undock from the CM. There was some residual pressure in the docking area that added a few feet per second velocity to the LM. This is the reason Apollo 11 'landed long ' (at 6:19) ie a few miles down range from where they intended to land. Later missions took this into account to more accurately target the LM to the desired landing site.

I love this series to death, but looking at it now that I have recently listened to the actual comms from the Apollo 11 flight, it's really hokey how everything is so Hollywooded up. Everyone over reacts to everything. Apollo's greatest strength, a result of all the extensive simulations, was that nobody got emotional about anything, ever. Here it's all "Oh my god, the eagle hasn't replied yet!!" "Oh my god, it's a 1202 alarm!!!"

[@jeffmaxwell8297]

Not nearly as bad as First Man. However, I will say that there WAS a lot emotion - just not outwardly. Armstrong's heart rate was 156 in the moments before touchdown. But when you listen to the actual audio, it all sounds fine. This was an attempt to strike a balance between staying true to the actual recordings and making clear what was a big deal that you wouldn't understand from the real audio.

There are plenty of clips showing how the spacesuits are made and how awkward it was to fit into them requiring 2 men, virtually impossible to climb into a space suite and fit the gloves and helmet on your own, worst still in a capsule don't you think. There are plenty of clips on the various Apollo trips of astronauts in their capsules not wearing their spacesuits, but no clips showing how they attempted to fit into them, a few clips of stupid things like brushing their teeth or showing weightlessness.

I already knew it was the greatest human achievement in all of known history and was stunned and deeply gratified that I was lucky enough to not only be alive but witness it as it happened in real time. I stayed awake to watch the first human footsteps on another world and even photographed the TV image.

I was 10 when this happened. Live on TV in the small hours of the morning in Ireland. The Command module pilot was Michael Collins, a namesake of one of Irelands greatest political and military figures from 1921 and the President who started the whole enterprise was JFK, an Irish American. The Apollo program started an interest in Science and Technology in Ireland that continues to bear great fruit to this very day. Just after 1969 there was a great optimism that anything was possible in science and technology. An optimism that seems to be rekindled with humankinds devising of the COVID19 vaccines in a very short time.

I get teary eye every time I watch the actual or a recreation of this historic moment.

@@Cuban7thst No, no it isn't. It was an American accomplishment. Americans built it, flew it, died in it, landed in it. Why cant you admit it? What if the USSR beat the Americans? Would you still say it was a human accomplishment?

I was 14, but was already aware that I am witnessing a historical moment, the significance of which I might never witness again in my lifetime. So I kept the newspaper from the next morning with the headline announcing 'Man on the Moon'. I still have it and treasure it. Today, at 67, I think I was right. There was nothing that happened in the following 53 years that captured my imagination the way the lunar landing did. An official announcement of contact with aliens might still prove me wrong.
