JPL and the Space Age: Destination Moon

[@MrHichammohsen1]

On behalf of space lovers, we appreciate this amazing series of documentaries for us! JPL Rocks.

[@robc5704]

In a world where lies, subterfuge and denials abound I found the candour of the JPL documentary a wonderful display. Their honesty in showing what happened, warts and all, is something all governments and agencies around the world should aspire to. Truth, coupled with passion and a dream of a better world will prove in the end indomitable. Well done.

[@stillperfectgenerations5852]

Have you noticed the astounding similarities of Devon Island and "Mars"? It still confounds me that anyone is impressed with the "technologies" of NASA or JPL either one... Of course, you should expect nothing more than lies from Luciferian freemason liars and thieves. This is the only technology to devolve in 50 years! 1960 tech is said to carry men 238,000 miles from Earth and beyond the deadly radiation of the VARB's, but today with advancements to every system available to Apollo - from materials to manufacturing techniques, COMMs and computers, and rocket engine designs, no space agency in the world can take life beyond LEO! You still can't see it?

I worked at JPL for the Viking II mission in the Viking Imaging section . It was AMAZING ! I worked “ up on the hill“ aka Cardiac Hill “ in the simi permanent bungalows making things for the SFOF building and the blue room and the DSN . I saw Sagan in the cafeteria, Dr. Pickering , Von Karman auditorium, my first microwave oven in one of the break rooms , and to be honest I would have worked for free !

[@intensedays4965]

I'd like to know with such a small size realitive to space, how on 'Earth' can you get anything to actually make it to the moon, I mean between gravity and things like planets are supposedly moving like 160,000mph in a circle?congrats by the way and well done even getting your f Just so many factors, and what's up with the dome the elite speak of? And did you work with any e.t. races that you know of. Finally congrats well done that's amazing even getting your foot in the door, glad you had such a awesome experience I love hearing someone reflect without regret and broken heart, what would you tribute that if i may ask. Probably never got in your own way I'd imagine that's my problem hahaha still tryin thou more heart then head.

[@KarldorisLambley]

Good grief. Just read about celestial mechanics. Its fairly simple.

[@skrillgorefuski]

@@KarldorisLambley relax blockhead. Stars can be seen through the moon as well as the blue sky. It is not a solid object that you can land on. And the nail in the coffin is the magic chest mounted camera that had absolutely no radiation shielding . Not from the extreme cold ,vacuum or radiation. That means the film would all be ruined. Any professional photographer that worked with chemicals in a dark room could tell ya that one. Don’t need to be a “rocket scientist” to figure that out. Why don’t you check what Von Braun had written on his grave marker. Pretty interesting thing for an high ranking Notsee SS officer to reference. Seeing how you all think he is the father of modern malarkey. Oops i meant rocketry.

[@KarldorisLambley]

@@skrillgorefuski mental illness is an awful thing for you to live with. How i pity you.

[@Dystopikachu]

@@intensedays4965 If you honestly want an introduction to the subject suitable for every audience, watch Carl Sagans original Cosmos series from the late 70's/early 80's. He is undoubtedly one of the best science communicators of all time, and if in 100 years most people believe in a flat earth at least that will not be a failure of trying on his part.

[@adriangould8122]

Absolutely brilliant film I'm 61 now and if it wasn't for them young men and womens dedication I wouldn't have witnessed all of the Apollo missions on television it was great all the excitement of the live TV launches of the mighty SATURN FIVE.

Almost 50 years since humans last walked on the Moon, I was a teenager in 1969 and was so excited as were most of the world's population watching Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin stroll on the Moon's surface, for a short time it seemed like the world was united as one that we had accomplished that great achievement for all humankind, now we are getting closer to returning to the Moon but this time will be different as a permanent base will be established on the Moon's surface, I'm looking forward to that day when that rocket be it Starship or the NASA Artemis launches for that epic return journey, I just hope that I will still be here to witness it and if I'm lucky to see the first humans walk on Mars. 😎

I was born in December 1953. And I take some unwarranted pride in the fact that my life has so far eclipsed the space age. I actually recall the launches of Project Mercury. And, I'm grateful for the memories. All through Elementary School to HS Graduation (and Apollo) space exploration was a constant awareness. Back then, space geeks knew the names of every US Astronaut. They were heroes.

[@margaretgreene3004]

Memories. I grew up watching this era on TV. Awesome then & still awesome now.

What a fantastic flashback to better times, when people were excited about space travel, the unknown and research, the benefits of which we still profit from today.

[@MarkHopewell]
