I feel like there are so, so many museum archives that could benefit from Brady visiting.

[@smartereveryday]

Roll Tide brother (saw the note in the description).

[@UpcycleElectronics]

You two should do a walk through of the museum and just record yourselves geeking out. Even as a live stream it would be fun to watch ;)

[@gephc4]

I was there the day Destin sent the first Dinonauts to the Moon! It was a glorious time.

[@UpcycleElectronics]

I was born in Huntsville. As a kid I thought all towns must have Saturn 5's just sitting proudly on display beside the highway ;) Cool place.

[@youmaycallmeken]

Flushing Meadows Park, Queens, New York, across from where the Mets play, I'd see models of the rockets used in the space program. These were what remained from the 2nd of two World Fairs at that location, that was 1964-65. The 1st one that was at that location was 1939-40.

[@francoislacombe9071]

IIRC, Mattingly did not get sick prior to the Apollo 13 mission, he was exposed to someone sick with german measles and was replaced on the mission as a precaution. He never did contract the disease.

The flowers weren’t blooming in Houston! ;)

[@realspacemodels]

Oh MY! Apollo 15 was my favorite Lunar mission and these artifacts are amazing to see. I literally got tears in my eyes when he brought up the tool holder from the rover.

[@Depressed_Dinosaur]

I noticed that the glove may have been Irwin's before being assigned to Mattingly. The name Irwin had been crossed out. See 6:02.

[@DackxJaniels]

Can't wait for the Genesis rock! It comes from the land of confusion, after all!

[@utofbu]

I appreciate this comment. lol

[@catfish552]

Da-da-doo-doo-dood.

[@Veptis]

This is awesome. I have giving a talk in history class on rockets on Friday and Apollo is a big topic I cover. Right now I am 3D printing the interstage for my Saturn V model in 1:82 scale. It's at 97% after 11hours of printing time making it the longer and heaviest part so far and I am still missing the first stage.

[@smaakjeks]

You're 3D printing rocket ship models? When I was a substitute teacher they never let me do stuff like that. Nary a 3D printer to be seen! D:

[@adud6764]

Can you upload a video of the finished thing?

[@Veptis]

@@smaakjeks it's my own printer and filament. I am actually running out of a spool on this project. I am maybe like 500-600gram into. For my 12th grade project I built a printer from a Chinese kit and have been using it since for some time.

[@smaakjeks]

@@Veptis Neat!

[@Veptis]

@@adud6764 I will try to remember that, but the video won't be this week even if I finish the print tomorrow.

[@MichaelSteeves]

I hope you got more videos from that trip! Fascinating!

[@PinkChucky15]

Space, ny favorite subject. That museum looks amazing :-)

[@incargeek]

The metal mesh on the A7-LB gloves is called Chromel-R.

[@arcanics1971]

Fantastic!

[@kmbecker4]

Did you go back to your hotel and put on your Speedmaster right away? I feel like that would only be fitting, haha.

[@bastiaan1brink]

what ever you do, don't snap your fingers while wearing that glove!

[@vkillion]

You went to Huntsville to see something space related and didn't bring Destin along‽

[@xja85mac]

Vincent Killion I think he was behind the scenes.

[@slpk]

He was there for Thnkercon

[@samsmith1580]

Please spend the next six years of your life in Huntsville and make an Apollo Museum video every week.

[@ObjectivityVideos]

I wish I could.

[@MrImagin]

you can see "Size: J. Irwin" crossed through inside the glove. I wonder if it was originally made for him and they just wore the same size?

[@Knight_Astolfo]

We'll get you to space, someday, Brady!

[@nsub1]

I've met Dave Scott a few times. He's a nice guy! (My wife is a planetary scientist whose PhD advisor worked in NASA in the late '60s onward.)

[@BillySugger1965]

Ooh Brady, hope you’re meeting up with Destin and maybe doing some collaborating.

[@mojosbigsticks]

Lucky, lucky Brady.

[@rikrikonius1301]

Thanks for resisting the temptation to snap your fingers :)

[@BThings]

What about that beautiful olive-green Smith-Corona typewriter in the background at 6:20? What's the history of that?

[@smaakjeks]

Awesome.

[@nic12344]

This glove used to be James Irwin's! You can see his name strikeout on the tag.

[@j0nthegreat]

golly, hard to believe it's been almost 200 videos already!

[@flamencoprof]

The glove has velcro, but I can't see where the vacuum seal is. Interesting to see such an ancient technology as sewing on such a high tech artefact.

[@WanJae42]

It's an overglove. The pressure glove is underneath. It provides extra protection, but it's bulky. You might remove it (for example) in the spacecraft for better access to controls.

[@flamencoprof]

@@WanJae42 That makes sense, thanks!

[@MusicFanatical1]

5:49 "lift *him* off *his* mount" I hate this but hear it all the time. 'IT'! The glove is an 'it' not a 'he'. And don't get me started on boats...

[@PeteTheFatDog]

You're where? That's like Destins backyard. I foresee collaborations in the future.

[@slpk]

He went to Thinkercon.

[@scorinth]

In the future? They've already done collaborations!

[@khilorn]

Awesooooome

[@lithostheory]

Did that glove actually go to the moon?

[@sevrjukov]

Yeah, i'd like to know also. Looks all worn and used.

[@priyamagarwal7892]

Alabama? Where is Destin?

[@ObjectivityVideos]

He is everywhere and nowhere!

[@priyamagarwal7892]

He’s getting smarter everyday, Brady

[@Ojisan642]

Coming soon! *5 months later....*

[@alwysrite]

cool, but I always thought the glove was part of the spacesuit , ie one piece !

[@mdtrx]

oh collab with SmarterEveryDay inc.

[@litigioussociety4249]

Of course they have to use the weird official name "lunar rover," when regular people all call it a "moon buggy."

[@alshammaali]

Hi!!

[@Sam-lr9oi]

I hate that it's necessary for KZbin to need a disclaimer for conspiracy theorists that the Apollo Program is real.

[@smaakjeks]

What? What disclaimer?

[@Sam-lr9oi]

@@smaakjeks on desktop at least, I see a historical summary and link to Encyclopedia Britannica, that only started appearing last year sometime when youtube committed to limiting the influence of conspiratorial channels.

[@smaakjeks]

@@Sam-lr9oi How depressing...

[@fisharepeopletoo9653]

@@Sam-lr9oi Its what they are doing to help fight disinformation, a sort of half-assed, automated fact check. KZbin is one of the best places to spread misinformation, you can spout whatever nonsense you want and no one gets the chance to respond, creators even have the ability to weed out comments and disable likes/dislikes. If anything, its only sad because this is all they're doing.

[@Sam-lr9oi]

@@fisharepeopletoo9653 I agree completely. It was a cheap cop out, and now I (and I assume most rational people) only see it on videos like this.

[@roderickwhitehead]

It is safe to say there is a Smarter Every Day collab in the can.
