For the curious minded:
-This video loosely details the first Apollo Moon landing (Apollo 11).
-The Apollo missions are the only missions to date that have sent humans beyond low earth orbit (hopefully SpaceX and NASA will change that soon!)
-After separation, the S-IVB (Saturn V 3rd stage) was directed into a solar orbit or intentionally smashed into the moon to measure seismic vibrations.
-The 'Free Return Trajectory' was actually used on Apollo 13 to get them back home safely.
-Lunar Orbit Insertion(LOI) had a second engine burn to adjust their orbit - this was not covered in the video.
-It took about 2 hours to orbit the moon, they were at a height of about 69 miles (110 km).
-On Apollo 11 they almost had to abort because they were almost out of fuel.
-The LM was immediately prepped for take off after landing on the moon. If anything went wrong (such as leaking fuel) they would have to attempt to take off ASAP.
I'm not entirely sure what color the flame on the LM descent engine really was...but blue made it look awesome! If anyone knows for sure - please let me know in the comments!

[@Andrew-wv7qp]

What annoys me about most current documentaries is they always seem to artificially pump up the drama. Apollo 11 had plenty of drama by itself, but one doc I saw kept hinting that Armstrong and Aldrin were in danger of running out of fuel and crashing on the moon. They weren't. They were running up against the abort limit, which included a way to return to orbit. It was an extremely risky maneuver, yes, but not in the recklessly dangerous way suggested by the documentary

[@Nunavuter1]

This video finally gave me a clear idea of how the free-return trajectory works. The spacecraft was not accelerated to Earth escape velocity (as is often suggested), but was instead placed in a highly elliptical Earth orbit that intersects the Moon. By doing nothing, the Moon's gravity will swing the craft back toward the Earth. This is an elegant fail-safe that I'm sure the crew of Apollo XIII appreciated. Only minor course corrections are needed, and the main engine can remain shut off.

[@bubblegumbabeface6629]

@A Stunning Estate And D!ck Pills ! What's never made sense to me about all these conspiracies is, I can understand why they'd make all this up during the cold war to beat their enemies, pretty easy motive, but why would they then make up them failing at it. Like with Apollo 13 , challenger, Columbia. Why would you want to make up you failing. I just got done watching 4 hours of unedited audio from the Apollo 13 incident. You're telling me, a bunch of people for no particular reason were over radios talking to each other for over 50 or so hours trying to fix an airsystem in a non-existent space craft, for no reason despite those recordings not being released for ages, so the public wouldn't have been able to hear this faking anyway until long after it was done? Even for a hoax, that sounds extremely unnecessary and pointless, especially if people already believe you've been to the moon. Moreover alot of people watched those rockets taking off and going into space, I watched as Columbia broke up when it came back into the atmosphere. What's more if you have the money and you want too, reflective mirrors from the Apollo Missions have been placed on the moon, you can bounce a HPL off of it and get the reading back so you can literally do the math yourself and determine the distance.

The first moon landing happened at 3:17 P.M. EST on July 20th, 1969. I'd argue that you're the incredibly stupid one.

If you read the book "Carrying the Fire" by Michael Collins, you learn that the passive thermal roll during the coast to and from the moon, was carried out in the vertical position and not in the horizontal alignment you might expect.

@Oiled Up And Ready ! He later showed it being to scale. P.S.: The fact that you need to look up a video explaining the Apollo program to hate on everyone about how it's all lies is pathetic. Say, have you ever been to Huntsville, where three Saturn Vs are out in the open for the world to see? Or to Houston, where there's a fourth? How about all the literal rocks from the moon in museums around the globe? I've been to the exact spot in the New Mexico desert where an Apollo capsule first tested in 1964. I can see why you would think the Apollo missions were fakery since nobody's been there in _your teensy little lifetime,_ but we'll be going back there in 5 years time, and this time you'll be able to see your precious stars on the "backdrop", since we've invented dual-exposure cameras since. Also keep in mind that CGI was in its infancy when Apollo missions were going to the moon, and cameras weren't high enough FPS that they could be slowed down just yet... The fact that you think it is necessary to deny the existence of the greatest technological acheivement in human history, which caused the deaths of three people and contributed to the collapse of the largest nation in the world, is simply despicable.

A collapsible docking probe. www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/CSM11_Docking_Subsystem_pp87-92.pdf

[@lukestrawwalker]

The docking probe and drogue setup was some brilliant engineering. It consisted of a pointed "probe" that was attached to the front of the Command Module inside the docking tunnel, just above the inside hatch at the top of the CM below the instrument panel. This probe stuck out the front and contained a cone at its tip with three spring-loaded latches that engaged with the passive "drogue", which was basically a metal cone with a hole in the center, much like a "cone of shame" the vet puts on your dog to keep them from licking themselves after a medical procedure. The drogue was installed in the top of the LM's airlock tunnel with three tongue-n-groove latches in a "twist-lock" arrangement sorta like a gas cap on a car. When the probe entered the drogue, it would slide down the length of the interior of the cone until it hit the bottom, at which point the tip of the probe was inside the hole of the cone, and the spring loaded latches would snap out and lock above the lip of the cone's hole, creating the "soft dock" of the two spacecraft. Then the probe would be hydraulically retracted by a switch, pulling the two spacecraft together until the mating surfaces of the docking tunnel on the two spacecraft touched, at which point a series of spring-loaded latches around the interior of the tunnel would snap into place, locking the two spacecraft together in what was called "hard dock". Then the two docked spacecraft would have the tunnel filled with air via controls inside the CM, until the pressure equalized between the tunnel and the CM cabin, which meant equal air pressure on both sides of the CM upper hatch into the tunnel. The hatch would then be opened from inside the CM, exposing the base of the probe mechanism, which was attached to the walls of the tunnel with three clamps. The probe was unlatched and retracted, and then folded up and stowed with the hatch inside the CM storage bay under the seats. The tunnel was now partially open with the docking probe out of the way, and the astronauts would enter the tunnel, release the locks, give the drogue a twist, and remove the drogue cone from the docking tunnel, which exposed the LM's top hatch. A pressure equalization valve on the hatch would be opened to equalize the air pressure between the CM, the tunnel, and the LM cabin, and allow the LM top hatch to be opened from the tunnel side. This completed the docking procedures and allowed access from the CM to the LM. Before the LM undocked to go down to the Moon, the same procedure was reversed-- the LM astronauts transferred over to the LM, and they installed the drogue in their side of the tunnel at the top of the LM. The CM pilot installed the probe in the tunnel on the Command Module side of the tunnel, and locked it in place. The LM had its hatch closed, and the CMP installed the hatch on the CM, the tunnel was depressurized (air bled out into space) and checked for leaks of the CM and LM hatches, once they were verified to have good seals, the hard dock latches would retract and the two vehicles would separate. When they docked again after the lunar landing, the same procedure would occur to achieve soft dock, hard dock, tunnel pressurization, seal verification between the two spacecraft, then open the hatches on both the LM and CSM, and remove the probe and drogue to clear the tunnel, transfer cargo and crew from the LM for the final time, then close up the hatches for the last time, depressurize the tunnel to remove the load (compressed air in the tunnel pushing against the hatches and walls, pulling against the hard dock latches) from the hard dock latches, then the hard dock latches were retracted, separating the LM for the last time. The CM and LM would then maneuver apart, with the LM later commanded to crash into the Moon or left in a decaying orbit (though the Apollo 10 LM is still drifting along Earth's orbit behind Earth in a permanent (we think) solar orbit, where it's been since early '69...) The CSM then returned to Earth, with its probe stowed in the lower equipment bay, since it was no longer needed with nothing left to dock to, and where it would be safely out of the way of the parachute risers when the chutes deployed after reentry... On Apollo 14, (IIRC) they nearly had to scrub the mission because for whatever reason, the three spring-loaded latches on the tip of the probe would NOT latch into the hole of the drogue in the LM to create the capture and soft dock, which is of course necessary to be able to lock the two spacecraft together for the probe to "retract" and pull them together in the proper alignment for the tunnel latches to be locked in to create "hard dock". They attempted several times and were running low on docking fuel, Mission Control finally told them to "ram it in" more or less and hit the LM drogue more forcefully, which dislodged whatever bit of dirt of whatever that was keeping the latches from snapping out into the hole of the drogue, which allowed them to snap out and lock the two spacecraft together so they could retract and "hard dock" the two vehicles. Had this NOT worked, the CSM would have eventually used up all allocated docking propellant, and would have had to abort the LM docking and extraction from the S-IVB, and simply either conducted a lunar-orbit only mission, or abort the mission entirely and return to Earth... either through the free-return trajectory or by direct abort. Once docked, the crew removed the probe and inspected it closely, and found only a bit of dirt or something that they thought was keeping the latches from working properly... of course it worked properly for their return from the Moon, as they figured it would. Had it failed a second time, the crew COULD have transferred back to the CSM in their suits via EVA between the two spacecraft flying in close formation... which is how the Soviets planned to retrieve their single moonwalker from their lunar lander after his mission-- they couldn't spare the weight of a pressurized or reusable docking tunnel system and probe-n-drogue, so they basically topped their LM with a "dart board" and the top of their lunar Soyuz would have had essentially a spear or harpoon sticking out the top, which when the two spacecraft were brought together would spear through the "dartboard" on the LK lunar lander, "locking" the two vehicles together in close proximity-- the cosmonaut would then open his side hatch of the LK lander, climb out into open space with his box of rocks, film, and cameras, and then spacewalk over to the awaiting "lunar Soyuz" using handholds, meet his fellow cosmonaut from the Soyuz at its open hatch, transfer the payload inside, and then enter the lunar Soyuz and close the hatch. The LK lander would then be discarded with explosive bolts on the spear or harpoon that would jettison it and the LK lander so they could depart lunar orbit for Earth. Their lunar spacecraft would remain attached to the rocket stage for the trip to the Moon until it was in Low Lunar Orbit (LLO) and then one of the two cosmonauts aboard would transfer via spacewalk down the length of the "lunar Soyuz" into the LK lander, opening its single side hatch from outside. He would then descend alone to the lunar surface, while his crewmate remained in lunar orbit in the spacecraft "mother ship". Later! OL J R :)

Your life is like the astronaut in the CSM who flies to the moon but doesn’t land it

[@ChrisCooper312]

They were all very happy to do that job, in fact most of them asked for the job. Not only was in an important part of the whole mission, requiring very skilled pilots (they had to be able to work alone, including potentially flying down to "collect" the LM if it could take off but not get into a high enough orbit, or back to earth on their own if there was a problem with the LM that stranded them on the moon), but it also put them on rotation to command a later mission. As it was though, the Apollo program was cancelled before any of the CMs from the moon landing missions got a command (Collins could have, most likely on Apollo 17 but chose not to). Jim Lovel (Apollo 8 CMP), Dave Scott (Apollo 9 CMP) and John Young (Apollo 10 CMP) all did command later missions and walk on the moon. Ken Mattingly (Apollo 13 CMP, put back to 16 due to German Measles risk) went on to command two Space Shuttle missions.

So this is how complicated the trip to Moon and some says it's just a conspiracy theory and a CGI

[@mako88sb]

Yes, it certainly was pretty complicated. It really is quite amazing how much was accomplished in such a short period of time. In a few short years the USA went from relatively small and simple rockets that had launch failure rates as high as 40% to the Saturn V with a 100% successful launch rate. Pretty amazing considering it was the most complicated machine at the time to be successfully launched. Even the Saturn 1’s & 1B’s had 100% successful launches even though the people involved with designing them expected half to fail. Gives you some idea about the caliber of the people involved with the whole program.
