I went to Houston Public Library, and checked out this exact Apollo Update on 8mm film and presented it to my PreHighschool class. I learned how hard those projectors were(keeping slack and where the spare bulb is) and it was enlightening to every person in class. This was in late 78 and already the Apollo Program was being forgotten. SPACELAB, and extension of the Apollo Program and hardware was Currently Orbiting. In 1974 our Moom Landings finished and America became not interested in the Historicness of what we did and were doing. It was a driving influence on my career choice, and the Apolli program should have had longer and more detailed science missions....as planned. But we went with STS and stayed in earth Orbit from then to now(sans Voyager and other Unmanned Missions). 1978 was 1 year feom the Historic Humanity Cahnging event of going to moon...and children and adults were already moving on. It is to me a shame the Apollo program wasn't extended and utilized as projected....but I understand why popular and political needs thought it was a wasted use of money that COULD have gone for other purposes. NASA budget at that time was a manageable expense, considering the VAST amounts spent on the Veitnam Conflict. It was the thought American citizens would bennifit from saving that money...but the Federal Government will wast our money on War and country's at War refardless.(ukraine). Were about to once again begin to venture to the moon with manned crew. We wasted 50 years. Everything cost more . We spend less currently on NASA in one year than we do on 1 day providing Financial Aid to other Countries and the War Machine of Contractors. America needs to better serve mankind.

I am guessing that the X-15 material was inserted by Retro Space HD to fill in the "redacted" portions of this film.

John Young was BADASS

those cosmonauts space suits still look cool as they don’t appear dated . this was an incredible moment

I'm not fan of these AI upscaling. Looks like LSD Trip. I prefer if you would just renoise, balance colours etc, sharpen image slightly, with original resolution of the footage. It's not like it's more crisp any way. Just shrooomy.

Great video. The only actual problem Apollo 7 had was Wally Schirra caught that cold and became an axxhole... CORRECTION: Apparently Mr. Schirra was suffering from nicotine withdrawal, which I've been through too, so I understand now. But he never flew again and most likely NASA learned from this... a 2 pack a day smoker can just not stop without some pretty serious side effects.

Is the skip maneuver computer controlled or manually controlled?

Apollo 14 was the only Apollo Launch, the only Saturn V launch that I was at the Cape to see in person though from a distance of about 7 miles across the Banan River with some family. We made the trip from largo, FL on the west cost in the Tampa Bay area. I was home on leave from the Air Force from wich I separated in the summer of 1972. I was 20 yars old when I was at the Cape. that day. I took some disappointing pics with a 110 pocket instamatic. The pics were disappointing because of the poor quality of the film and camaer and because there was alow cloud layer in which the rocket disappeared seconds after clearing the tower.. TV viewes had the views of remote telecopic cameras that tracked the rocket above the low clouds. Even though the pics were disappointing, I am glad I was there that day to see that bit of history.

INOUBLIABLE ! ❤❤❤ Patrick. Le Mans, FRANCE

This videos evokes sweet memories for an old man who once was young😁

I watch this and I'm back in 69, sitting in front of the TV. I gobbled up all the TV I could. Still wanted more info. So, I bought models, books, etc. Watched every launch. CZcams makes it like yesterday.

What's with the x15 narration?

we see at 26:00 the big benefit of Corona was first to achieve recovery of a space capsule, something very important if want to safely recover an astronaut from space. Everything from precise orbital mechanics math to heat shield and attitude control from orbit had to be developed from scratch. Interesting about the capsule that inadvertently landed in Norway was the idea for the movie "Ice Station Zebra." And how color photography was impetus for the Landsat program and info we had of Soviet rocket capability encouraged SALT agreements.

Interesting.

and here the REAL original Video from Euro-News. czcams.com/video/V6n_133hCkQ/video.html REALLY first Video with journalistic background and not some unknown CZcamsr with no background and reworked Video. The Real landing is shorter then 1 minute and with some wind sounds nobody knows why.

".. At the start, "Behind them is a PROTOTYPE". sorry chef Meaning was the flag..😂

".. For all y'all Yankees, who so "DESPERATELY".. finding any excuses of TRUTH, call them PAN: Pro Astronaut Nutters.. 😂 # NO IT ALL'S..

".. Funny mask, laughing gas,

John F. Kennedy would have preferred NASA was honest and admitted missing the goal to "go to the Moon in this decade", than to fake it. The first step in solving a problem is realizing there is one. 😂😉🙃😑🤐🤫😏🤤😬😵‍💫🤪🤥".. # I Rest my case, case-closed, endgame, AstroNOT'S, Niel Armstrong= NIEL-Armsteong..

@patrickw is a childish coward who hides behind anonymity. A heckler is the lowest class person - except for a heckler who hides. That’s the absolute lowest.

I stress put watching these thinking what I would do if my back was itchy and no way of scratching it in those suits and all strapped in.

This is the best. Truly human rated flight made our ICBM fleet the tool that it is. Elon musk and SpaceX should thank +70 years worth of research.

17:25 Planned altitude of 279,000 miles above earth? I think they mean trajectory instead of "planned." The next burn with the CSM rotated 180 deg then decelerated to max out near 11,000 miles in the mission.

"roger" vs. "copy that".

The Space Shuttle could have been great, it had done so much but yet so little. I really wish NASA had pushed forward to improve the shuttle to it's utmost potential...

😅😮😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅well ingormeti0n.Good show more 😅😅😅

It is undeniable. This has got to be the greatest test flight in history.

Pete and the boys got some work to do!

Frank Borman didn't pull any punches about Glenn's shuttle flight as purely political and had nothing to do with the geriatric research bullshit.

Just suscribed, Soviet engineering is amazing and it is too sad to see sooo few footage around

I remember listening to the space walk on the radio.

You can see the edit at the beginning where they lowered the mannequins arms clearly right before the rover moves. The upscale version has the part edited out to make you think he moved his arms. Its just a mannequin in a spacesuit being remotely controlled. Im so glad this version exists to show people the difference than most other versions. They will still blind themselves to it, unfortunately.

At about 19:44 in this video... The narrative referred to *_"NERVA"_* as *_"Nuclear Engine Reactor for Vehicle Application."_* I thought it meant *_"Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Application."_*

And some 60-ish years later, we are FINALLY getting around to employing _nuclear thermal rocket propulsion._

I think in 1969 people just didn't tend to joke at press conferences like they do today, it was a more serious stuff.

😅😅😮😅😅😮well information good show you 😅😅😅

42:58 Fly... How?

I remember this flight. It was exciting and my favorite mission since it was a new spacecraft.

This failure led to the transfer of satellite launch vehicle responsible to the Redstone rocket and the raise to eminence of Wernher von Braun and the US Army Ballistic Missile Agency in Huntsville, AL. When NASA was formed the Ballistic Missile Agency was absorbed and that is how the Marshall Space Center was located in Huntsville.

Schlatt uses this on his Tekkit Part 5 VOD, been looking for it. Awesome to see it in color!

I really like the narrator voice! Who’s the person?? Mario Machado??

Here we are folks on a barren huge rock with no air extreme solar radiation that would blind you in an instant and with lethal radiation planting some dumb artwork of stripes and organised triangles on a pole. Why? Oh cause people will really like it and now there are instruments to tell us how horrible it is here accurately as if we didn't know already. And then we will get the hell outa here before we die. Dumb ass stuff but the pays good.

I have a comment. Born in 1957 I then and still today at 66 find the whole thing amazing. Absolutely wonderfully amazing.

October 14th 1947. RIP Mr Yeager.

Awesome video as usual!!

Outstanding documentary!

😢❤ A very sad time of space history.

😢❤

A few months before MA-8, there had been some nuclear warheads detonated in space as part of Project Starfish. Tgey caused artificial auroras and an EMP that took out part of Hawaii’s electric power grid. There was one concern that the charged particles and fission products would pose a radiation hazard but from the flight report, there was no significant radiation dose.
