He got hired by a NASA subcontractor in 1966, and we moved to Huntsville Alabama, where all the Apollo design work was done. My daddy was a spaceman, all the kid's daddies were spacemen. He worked there all the way through the Skylab missions, then in 73, it all wound down, and he found work in the nuclear field, and we moved away. I have a coin from him, they gave one out to all the key people, made from the metal of the Apollo 11 spacecraft, and stamped with a caption and picture of the event.

People, as a whole, never just casually talked like this. They did in speeches, in congress, in books, movies, and little snippets here and there. But no one ever just talked like this all the time. It takes time and practice and usually lots of revision. He probably went through multiple drafts of this script as well as the recording. It is better to appreciate the work in this light, not only to acknowledge the efforts Exurb1a (and other creatives like him) put into each of their projects, but also so that others just starting out know to not get discouraged when they first start making stuff and find out how clunky first drafts tend to be.

Lord FLako How do you guys do it? How do you push through your homework? I want to be an engineer too, but I am struggling so much

[@lordflako5324]

Big Stud for me, I have different perspectives. Yeah there are times when I don’t want to do assignments, but I view it as going to the gym, or cleaning your room. Something you don’t want to do, but is necessary. Also, remind yourself why you’re doing this to begin with. Just like the gym, it takes practice and dedication. I often find that whenever I push myself to do my assignments when I least want to, is when I end up learning the most and being happy cause I was able to make that A. “C is good enough” is not a mentality you want to have. Sure C’s are ‘good enough’, but you want to reach your full potential. And as an engineer, seeing different perspectives to a problem and solving the problem is a necessary trait you must adapt.... in other words, suck it up, do the work, cause when you look back you’ll be glad you did it, and when you look forward you’ll be ready for the next step... also don’t stress yourself, take your time and dedicate large amounts of time to studying. You’ll find yourself having fun and if you don’t already feel a passion for it, it’ll start to spark it. 👍🏽 anyways good luck, I hope this helps in some type of way.

A person who can be passionate about astronomy will most likely turn humble at the realization of how insignificantly small the each of us are. This most likely will apply to astronauts who have been to space. Those who made it to the moon will leave all semblance of history that our world made, into a place entirely unknown, a place more harsh than the place we're all born from; to leave behind earth and travel to space, is to subsequently realize and acknowledge the many subsequent miracles that happen in the earth. And anyone who is passionate about Astronomy, will at some point want to see this kind of view that captivates the hearts of astronauts alike; just breathing in a place outside of the planet is already making history itself. But it doesn't have to be exactly that example only, nor does it have to be astrology in its entirely, it can be creative writing, singing in the music industry, dancing in a place vastly different from home such as a ballroom. It's really just passion about this and that, someone who is passionate over something will have changed for the better, and become more assured; whether that change is good for others or not.

“For me, the most ironic moment in that moment in history is the plaque signed by president Richard M Nixon that Apollo 11 took to the moon. It reads “we came in peace, for all mankind”. As the United States was dropping 7.5 megatons of conventional explosives on small counties in Southeast Asia, we congratulated ourselves on our humanity: we could do no harm on this lifeless rock” -Carl Sagan

Does anyone really buy that in 200 years in our Star Trek future humans will have evolved into benevolent beings? I say not a chance.

[@nikaymackenzie3692]

@@clayz1 wel did anyone 200 years ago really buy that we would land on the moon? Pretty sure 200 years ago they wouldnt even believe that black people/woman would have the same rights as all other people. But hey, atleast you can give urself an excuse to call yourself worthless and dont do anything with your life.

Shit, I was tearing up just watching this video. How can something so funny be so inspirational? If someone came up to me and said "Hey, we have a rocket ready, aimed at mars. You will never return and most likely die up there. Do you want to go?" I would have to say yes. Some things are much more important than my measly life.

@Jeremy Kirkpatrick Have you ever actually looked at any of the overwhelming evidence suggesting the moon landing was an obvious fake or do you just choose to believe what suits you best? Buzz Aldrin is a scumbag for perpetuating the lie for so many years and profitting off it as much as he did. At least Armstrong had the decency to become a recluse and not allow himself to be used like that. For what its worth Buzz only decked the guy because he was pressuring him to swear on a bible that they went, and of course a deeply religious man like buzz wasnt gonna do that because he knows hes LYING.
