How the Apollo Spacecraft works: Part 3

The LM ascent stage liftoff from the lunar surface to rendezvous and dock with the CSM. It was a three day journey to get back home. After reentry and splashdown, the astronauts were picked up by an aircraft carrier.

For the curious minded:
-On LM liftoff - there were potentially several more "midcourse" correction burns to allow docking to happen (look at the first source that I posted down below).
-Before docking - the astronauts would take pictures of each others spacecraft.
-During the coast back to earth, there was sometimes a spacewalk that happened.
-Reentry had to happen at just the right angle. Too steep and they burn up, too shallow and they skip off the atmosphere (the move Apollo 13 explains this quite nicely).
-Splashdown usually occurred in the Pacific Ocean.

[@abrahampowell6792]

Why does your videos have to be so short

[@chris_omwenga]

I did in swahili you can review it

[@CountArtha]

It probably bears mentioning that the Lunar Module's ascent engine was the only propulsion system on Apollo with no backup. The service module engine was originally designed for lifting the CSM off the Moon and was WAY more powerful than it needed to be, so if it failed the Lunar Module's descent engine could do the job instead (as was done on Apollo 13). If the descent engine failed during any phase of the Moon landing, the ascent engine could be used to abort the landing, get back into orbit, and rendezvous with the CSM. But if the _ascent_ engine failed to ignite on the Moon, the astronauts were stuck there forever. Worse, the Ascent Propulsion System had extremely simple plumbing that made it impossible to test-fire, because the corrosive oxidizer would basically destroy the engine in the process. So on every Apollo mission, the ignition of the ascent stage on the Moon was the first time that particular engine had ever been fired. The Bell engineers who built the LM's ascent engine probably had the most stressful job in the whole program.

[@JaredOwen]

I'm sure the astronauts were pretty nervous as they prepared to launch off the surface of the moon. That would have been sad to get to the moon but not be able to return home. Thanks for your comment - this is good info!

[@AngelPerez-dw8ou]

CountArtha Fucks thats crazy to think about...just three men stuck in the moon

[@Tim22222]

I heard that Buzz Aldrin accidentally broke off the switch that fired the ascent engine! (Bumped it while wearing his EVA suit.) Had to stick a pen cap in there to make it work. Now THAT would make me sweat.

[@Andrew-wv7qp]

The other interesting fact about the ascent engine was each engine was assembled and installed without testing it. The corrosive nature of the fuel meant that the engine would have to be rebuilt after firing, so no testing was possible. In other words, the very first time the engine was ever fired was on the ascent module, by the astronauts who were depending on it to get them home. Just a bit of pucker factor.

I did a report on the shuttle US back in 1980 more like a research paper was working on degree in applied science got a A for it but interestingly they never gave me back my paper but in my report i wrote that this. Craft was doomed to failure at some point due to not only its complexity but the fact that this ship was very fragile those boosters an example & just the whole design, structure the materials used the vulnerability to extreme climate made it a ticking time bomb add to the fact that it was expensive to operate & maintain for those reasons were probably why they kept my paper did they think i might let NASA know? & that i was right all along.but they said it was a good report may be too good.will never know.

[@StonyStonebraker]

I worked on the Saturn V and this is the best video explanation I've seen. I worked on the Instrument Unit which was the brains of the Saturn V. It was built by IBM under a contract with NASA in Huntsville, AL. The IU had all the navigation, guidance, telemetry, communications, etc. functions through Trans Lunar Injection. At the IBM facility where I worked, there were posters urging everyone to work with Zero Defects. Another poster with a quote by Wehner von Braun explained why: "If the Saturn V is 99.9% reliable, there will be 5,600 defects." I did some calculations recently and a typical cell phone these days has about 3.5 million times the storage capacity of the Saturn V IU and computer processors have about 1 trillion times the processing capability of processors in the 1960s. It is amazing to reflect on how primitive computers were back then and how we got to the Moon with such limited capabilities.

On Apollo 15, 16,& 17 crews not only utilized the lunar rover to go longer distances, but better suits and improved lunar modules ensured that crews conducted moonwalks for up to eight hours and stayed on the surface of the moon for up to 75hrs. 1:47 On Apollo 15, 16, & 17 the service module contained the Scientific Instrument Module that contained alot of scientific instruments, including the lunar receiving radar, mapping cameras and other equipment. This necessitated a spacewalk to retrieve the film canisters and the lunar receiving radar from the scientific instrument module.

[@lolvks]

Just to flesh it out, the 2/3 engine burns after launch from the moon were called: Coelliptic Sequence Initiate (CSI) - 1st engine burn Constant Delta Height (CDH) - 2nd engine burn, or 1st on the later missions Terminal Phase Initiate (TPI) - 3rd engine burn, or 2nd on the later missions These 3 burns were computed backwards, starting from the desired point where you want the LM to meet up with the CSM (which was at lunar sunrise) and working your way back to the desired launch time. Vaguely, purpose of the CSI burn was to put the spacecraft in position for the CDH burn. purpose of the CDH burn was to put the spacecraft in position for the TPI burn. purpose of the TPI burn was to have the LM and CSM meet up at a specific point in orbit. Later missions skipped the CSI burn as the LM was launched directly to the proper orbit for CDH to take place. This was called a "direct insertion" launch. Jeff Quitney has a video at kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4DRfHuOZtVrqZY detailing the process of getting the LM back to the CSM in orbit.

Great set of videos, superbly broken down and simplified - should be required viewing for all hoaxnuts!!

[@DaveHammondDublin]

Paul Snape I thought great work in the video , but just because some of us doubt and question the nasa evidence of man on the moon doesn’t change the phenomenol engineering of space flight or make us all hoax nuts , there are some legitimate doubtful claims in the space race in relation to manned landings

[@carlzimmerman8700]

Pretty sure most people who doubt the moon landings could be flown up to the moon, have their head bounced off the LM decent stage and would still not believe it. They start talking about how it was put there later and we didn't actually go in the 60s and everything is just an elusion and we all live in the matrix. At some point you have to take into account the overwhelming mountain of edvidence that points to the fact it did happen and stop focusing on some minute thing that can neither be proven nor disproved.

Paul Sharpe: Hi guy! Tell me where I am wrong and provide evidence: Where is the video showing the inside of them LEM with the astronauts in the moon suits and attached with the bungee cords. They had a periscope in the CSM and LEM for navigation, but for some reason there are no pictures or videos of stars. The second moment changes as the fuel and oxidizer gets used, but somehow these 4 groups of steering motors kept the LEM from crashing. No remote control or autopilot test landing to verify the LEMs control system and steering motors, with the sloshing fuel and oxidizer and water, but somehow they got it right the first time. The LEM simulator Neil flew and crashed obviously did not have the same second moment as the fake studio LEM on the moon stage. No radar stations on the moon to verify the unknown orbit of the fake CMS, and the ignition time of the LEM, and track the fake LEMs altitude and range as a function of time for descent and ascent. For the moon suit sublimator what blackbody absorber temperature did they use for outer space and the maximum power flux from the sun from the ultraviolet to infrared wavelengths. Same with the engine jet landing on the moon and the missing dust cloud and nobody afraid of rocks piercing the LEM or damage to the antennas, steering motors, or landing radar. They could have pointed the cameras up away from the moon instead of golfing on the moon stage but they decided not to because they would have taken pictures of the stage guys on the catwalk They also drove the moon buggy with lots of dust in the vacuum of the moon studio. Where is the video showing the astronauts in the LEM on the studio mooooon putting on their backpack life support. The clown did a fake spacewalk in the non gravity simulator in the airplane, but for some reason no stars in pictures or video from that. Their studio moon suits were contaminated with moon dust, which likely is radioactive, but no problem to put a Geiger counter next to their suits to verify there was no radiation hazard.Neil jumped off the studio LEM, but since it was live they could not slow down the speed by the square root of six, like the Six Million Dollar Man slow motion, because that would put the rest of their studio acting out of sync..Astronauts could not get more than 6 inches off the moon as they were hopping and walking and pretending to be on the moon stage. Radiation heat transfer on the LEM so they used a glycol cooling loop to radiate that heat back out into the air conditioned studio. Total hoax.

re entry started at 400,000 feet came down to about 200,000 rotated the craft 180" went back up 50,000 feet to cool the heat shield then rotated another 180" and started again to the sea. there is video on KZbin that shows the re entry from an aircraft the fireball is 50 miles long.

[@ChrisBrengel]

Seriously? That's amazing! What's the name of the video?

[@jennydavis4198]

it was called a lifting re entry as the command module was in essence a lifting body so as you correctly explained by altering its angle it could gain lift and perform these stepped re -entry's

What happens to the service module when it’s detached?

[@kevinthompson6986]

I can answer now it burns up re entering the atmosphere

[@sabertig3489]

Just a little info I picked up on the ascent stage on the LM: the engine was never tested on Earth, and its fire up or ignition was its first initial run. It was basically a clean engine up to the required use. Apollo 11, and the engineers on Earth, had a dramatic countdown once Neil and Buzz were getting ready to return. On top of that, Buzz broke the one ignition switch during their short stay on the Moon’s surface. They actually used the tip of a pen to fire up the engine.

[@JaredOwen]

Nice! Yeah that be pretty scary, cross your fingers that the engine turns on or stuck on the moon

[@mako88sb]

Just wanted to point out that they did have some redundancy with important controls and electrical systems. If the pen fix hadn't worked, there were people on the ground already working on another solution with the electrical system although I can't remember the details. The built in redundancy NASA insisted upon was a big reason why Grumman was having a difficult time keeping the weight of the LM within the tight guidelines.

[@suekennedy8917]

Saber Tig: Nobody went to the moon, particularly with a 1960s computer and changing second moment with 4 groups of constant force steering motors... Knowing how to evaluate evidence, or lack of evidence, is a good first step to revealing what a hoax it is. Having an engineering degree is helpful but not necessary to know what questions to ask or find huge inconsistencies in the moon hoax. Big problem for them is what were graduate level courses in the 1950s and 1960s are now undergrad courses, so there is not much of a mystery to use undergrad courses to ask questions they cant or dont want to answer....

In honour of the 50th anniversary of the moon walk I told my Grandkids this same story for bedtime tonight. I just sat down and came across this video. I am looking forward to showing it to them tomorrow as they were fascinated by the story. I was about their age when I witnessed these events and found it amazing then and now. Excellent job on this production, thank you.

[@slehar]

Wow! (1) WOW! (2) ***WOW***! (3) I have always been fascinated by the Apollo program, I was a kid when it happened, and I gobbled up all the information I could find. But this is such an EXCELLENT way to tell the story! I feel like I flew the whole mission, inside and out! Thank you! Outstanding stuff!

[@hisheighnessthesupremebeing]

With all this attention to technical detail the final part where we enter Earth's atmosphere feels a little light.. No mention of the trajectory and the small "window" they had.. Not to steep and not to flat or they burn up on re-entry or skip of the atmosphere back out in to space..

[@hisheighnessthesupremebeing]

... I almost forgot to complement you on the otherwise fine animations series.. Nice work.

[@JaredOwen]

Thanks!

[@suekennedy8917]

They dont skip into space. The return entry angle of the CSM entering the atmosphere can be such that lift is created. There can be enough lift and speed to put it back into orbit longer than the amount of oxygen they have available. The window is not that small. It was well within the capability of a typical aircraft autopilot at the time. Nice video presentation but the reality is nobody went to the moon, particularly with a 1960s computer...

I was just a kid when all of this was going on. The last Apollo mission to the moon (17) took place when I was a Freshman in highschool. The first moon landing took place when I was 11. At the time I had no appreciation of not only how complex these missions were, but also how DANGEROUS they were as well. Just the act of detaching from the tip of the rocket, having to flip around 180 degrees, and move back toward the top of another piece of the craft; all while moving along at THOUSANDS of miles per hour, is almost unthinkable to me now. But when I was a kid all I thought was; "coooool".
