- Apollo 8 - The Launch - Full Mission 01
This video details the countdown and launch of Apollo 8 on 21st December 1968. It is the first of an intended series which will cover the entire mission from countdown to splashdown.
A lot of the countdown video sequences are not available at present and I have pooled TV coverage and some documentary footage to fill in the gaps. From about T-6 minutes the launch is as seen that day through LET and Skirt Jettison when I have used Orbiter to simulate the sequences through to orbit.
The video is presented in 16:9 to allow use of photos and captions on the right of the screen. Apollo Guidence Computer programme DSKY is used once the sppacecraft is in orbit to show Mission Elapsed Time. The video ends with a replay of the launch followed by the first crew ccommunications out over the Canary Island station on orbit 1.
NOTE -
Some sequences are silent during the countdown so I could include "live" footage in the correct order and timeline.
During the launch of Apollo 8 the astronauts communications with the Capcom were not broadcast - these are heard on the replay of the launch later in the video.
All Video and audio is courtesy of NASA.

In the spring of 1969, Apollo 8 was on a world tour. I was 11-1/2 years old. Apollo 8 was brought to a small german town right outside of the American Housing Area (Sportsfield) at Hanau, Germany. My friends and I were biking around the area and we stopped in the town and there was Apollo 8 strapped down onto a flatbed truck with the hatch wide-open for the world to see. I remember seeing the capsule and how discolored it was and how the heat shield was charred from the steep angled re-entry into the atmosphere that it survived. Whew! Awesome! What a treat that was for us! We didn't even know that it was on tour.
Sam Spangler Great memories Sam, thanks for sharing them - LM5

Hallo Sam,
ich hätte das auch gern gesehen.
Wir hatten in diesen Jahren mit der Schulklasse eine Besichtigung russischer Raumfahrttechnik in Chemnitz.
(damals Karl-Marx-Stadt)
Leider weß ich nicht mehr, welche Kapsel dort ausgestellt war.
Der stärkste mir noch gegenwärtige Eindruck war die Enge der Kapsel.
Sam Spangler What a shame it did not come to Buenos Aires, I'm sure would have gone to see, as I went to the Gemini V (late '65) when he came on the tour (my father took me).
Just heard that Jack King has passed away today - he was The voice of launch control, probably most remembered for his commentary on Apollo 11s launch, but also for this launch, the first moon mission and many others like the Gemini 6 abort. I have listened to Jacks commentary over and over on the audio loops while putting together the Full Mission series, and I am so glad I will continue to hear his comments for many, many years to come. RIP Jack King - 1931 - 2015 - LM5
+lunarmodule5 < This is great.
Sorry to hear about Jack King. (*On this mission he had everything wrong? Didnt know Co2 v O2 levels, or that this was 8 and not 7..) He had a great "mission voice" :--)
How long did it take yoiu to p ut together this MASSIVE 42 part series on the Apollo 8 mission? I really feel sorry for Jim Lovell, going NEAR the Moon two times but never getting a chance to walk on it.
@@steveburrus9347 hi Steve...it took about 12 months..regards Lm5
lunarmodule5 I tuhink tha t it will take me about that long, 12 months, to look at all 42 parts of your Apollo 8 series I tell ya. Many of those parts are over 1 hour, some well over, in length. I have to be a big fan of that mission to see all of that.
xoxoxoxoxoxoxox
8 has always had a special place in my heart. I was a 10 year old kid at the time. The night, Christmas Eve, that they orbited the moon, I got my first catcher's mitt ever for my main gift. Then I got to watch the tv from the moon in my Grandparent's living room. Still brings back memories.
Me too. I was 8. Best year, best christmas, nothing has matched it. I got a bike and a desk.
@@ronaldworley7178 how was the bike? ride good? I need details!
I love Jack King’s voice and commentary!
I'm watching this once again it's so good. I love it. Apollo 8's always been my favorite of all missions. ALL of your Apollo videos are awesome. Mesmerizing! Takes you there! However Apollo 8 was a really special time for this 10yo mind back then.
50 years ago from the time of posting this comment, the spacecraft went 'behind' the moon and lost communication with mission control. Imagine being in the module when that happens. Amazing
What I don't understand is why outstanding episodes of our American history like this only warrant 70k views and no one has been on this thread for a year it seems. And the same thing goes for other great Apollo threads/videos on CZcams. Yet (by accident) I landed on one of these dimwitted conspiracy theory sites a week or so back and it was like a hornets nest of activity with 10mil views!?!? What are we coming to here? It's really sad people can be so weak .. followers of evil.
Bruce, I hear you. We live in evil times brother!
Thank you for your efforts to bring this wonderful story back to us. An Apollo fan since 1967. I just started to listen to the A11 mission tapes along with the PAO transcripts. Unforgettable!
Have fun Juha - and thats the way to use this resource! regards LM5
Always have to relive Apollo 8 at this time of year. I love ALL of the missions. But this one is the most dear to me. And always worth revisiting. This is the BEST place to do that. Merry Christmas SP.
Couldn't agree more! lol Merry Apollo 8 Christmas Dave
Absolutely incredible this is so well put together absolutely brilliant!
RIP Jack King, voice of the launches of the Apollo program.
Tom Johnson well said Tom
Hello LM 5,
sorry for german....
Es ist sehr, sehr gut zu sehen, daß es noch Menschen gibt, die die damaligen Leistungen würdigen.
Ihre Arbeit, LM 5, ist gewaltig und den Menschen und deren intellektuellen Leistungen und Heldentaten sehr angemessen.
Es ist schwer für mich, all meine Bewunderung für Apollo und LM 5 auszudrücken.
Ich als Zuschauer der original Übertragung von Apollo 11 bin in den Bann gezogen von diesen Stunden, von diesen Bildern.
Bis an mein Lebensende.
Immer wenn ich viel freie Zeit habe und Ihre Videos ansehe, fällt es mir ganz leicht, die Schrecken der aktuellen Welt zu vergessen.
Ich danke Ihnen sehr!
Habibi46611It is very , very good to see that there are still people who appreciate the benefits that time . Your work, LM 5 is huge and the people and their intellectual achievements and exploits very reasonable. It's hard for me to express all my admiration for Apollo and LM 5 . I as a viewer of the original transfer of Apollo 11 am under the spell drawn from these hours, from these images. Until my dying day . Whenever I have a lot of free time and your videos look , I find it quite easy to forget the horrors of the current world . Thank you very much!Well thats how it translates...I hope its sort of what Habib said..!
Habibi46611 You are, as always Habib, very welcome and I am glad you are along for the Apollo 8 ride....Sie sind , wie immer Habib , sehr willkommen , und ich bin froh, dass du mit auf die Apollo 8 Fahrt sind - LM5
*****
Yes, I think the translation is good in the very important points.
I'm grateful & impressed by the work you put into these &I will be eagerly awaiting each installment.
I was there in person - about the greatest event in my life.
Sure...! I envy you from France
"My thanks to Jim Lovell for providing technical assistance during this Full Mission series."
Dude, that's incredible. I hope you write a blog post somewhere about what that was like. He visited Chicago last year to see his CM on the 45th anniversary of Apollo 8. It was a quick, private experience for him, and I'm glad he got to have it, but I wish I could have met him before he left.
Ben Etherington Yeah it is very cool Ben - he asked for a complete copy of the Apollo 13 Full mission series a while back and has agreed to answer any queries I have on this full mission series, Although I dont expect him to answer everything, I am hoping he can tell me the attitudes of the spacecaft during different portions of the flight and maybe which pictures/film he took and when it was taken etc.
***** That's amazing. I'm glad you're being recognized for your fantastic work on this channel. FWIW, I'm going to make a point of referring listeners to you on next week's episode of theorbitalmechanics.com
Ben Etherington Thanks Ben - that would be awesome! - How can I listen to the episode? When does it come out? TBH it's fantastic everytime Jim emails me - his words of encouragement for the Apollo 13 series really made all the effort worthwhile. It takes a good 6-9 months to put one of these together so it's nice to hear that someone, in this case the actual guy who was there, likes the end result
***** Check out our website. You can listen to the episodes there, or you can go to the subscribe page and choose a podcatcher network or RSS feed.
Shoot me an email at ben.j.etherington@gmail.com, I'd like to ask you something.
Of all the astronauts Jim Lovell is the one I’d most like to meet. I was 8 when Apollo 8 went to the Moon. I remember watching and listening to their Christmas Eve broadcast. Incredible that you got to work with him on this series. What a thrill.
Great to relive this. The attention to detail and effort involved is much appreciated.
Thanks Rich - it is always nice to receive positive feedback - regards and hope u like the rest if the series LM5
Brilliant👍👍 a new Apollo series, loved all your "full" missions and learned a lot in the process.
Thanks for all the hard work you do putting these together.
L1verpool1 Thanks for the comments - I think we all learn something going back and either revisiting these missions or discovering them for the first time - Its like watching history come to life. Regards LM5
Hey! Thank you so much for doing this LM5!
Given that 2014 might have been one of the more contentious and difficult years in human history since 1968, I'm starting a tradition this year of re-living the mission, with the key being the Christmas Eve Genesis reading. Thank you for helping me do so!!!
Marcus Owens You are most welcome Marcus - Have a great Xmas and enjoy your look back!
Just read “Rocket Men”. I recall the Christmas message. I was 12. Fantastic historical documentation...the whole series.
Special times, special people.
Thank you so much LM5 for these video's and full missions. Your time and effort are greatly appreciated.
Robert Price you are more than welcome Robert - thanks for taking the time to comment - lm5
It's Dec 21 2018. Thank you for this posting. Am sharing it on FB. Merry Christmas, Peace and Love.
That's amazing that you've communicated with Jim Lovell for this series. My family and I were down in Cocoa Beach, Florida last year when they commemorated one of the buildings at KSC in honor of Neil Armstrong. Jim Lovell was down there also to speak at the commemoration. To think I could have run into him at the space center. I'd probably have freaked out. :)
As always, thanks for putting these together. They're awesome to watch and listen to.
laserfloyd Well, Captain Lovell is a very busy man so it takes some time to get back a reply, but its always worth the wait. He was very supportive for the Apollo 13 series too!As for this series, you are most welcome and I hope to be able to continue the series in a few weeks time...New PC is on the way!
Sensational - Thank you. Spent hours watching this series! Incredible!
You are more than welcome John
I'm glad that they clarified that the simulations were really just animations. I thought I was watching the real thing for a second there.:-)
Apollo 8 was such a gutsy call. Thanks again LM 5 for all your hard work. Merry Christmas
apollolander11 Merry Christmas Apollo - glad you are liking it - how is Apollo 16 coming along?
Had to jump on and say hi. :) ~ Merry Christmas 2019 >>>>> 51 years later from this Mission. Beautiful job as always lunarmodule5!
Merry Christmas Angel - thanks for all your support - regards LM5
I have listened to many of your fantastic compilations.. Thank you and know that what you're doing is very much enjoyed and appreciated
Thanks Madison...glad you are enjoying them.. regards LM5
Uploaded on the 46th annivesary of this most amazing of missions...
*****
Well, I will have as soon as I have finished the entire mission! Give me a few months!
Thank you for uploading!
50 years today, and I am honoring the mission by enjoying these fantastic videos made by you. Thank you!
@lunarmodule5OK... :) Setting up a new account.... Been gone...... You did it!!!! YAY!!!
@@lunarmodule5 :)
RIP, Bill Anders. 😢❤
Fantastic! Thank you very much for these videos, much appreciated.
U R Welcome!
Apollo 8 is the one that captures my sense of awe most, even more than 11. To watch the Earth receding as no one had ever before. . .
Thank you very much for this great work shared with us.
50 years ago today! Apollo 8 - the single most daring space mission, ever.
Your work is without question!! TY and MC and HNY.
Fred Thompson Thanks for that Fred - Merry Christmas and a Happy 2015 to you and yours
It is a privilege to have the possibility of enjoy a complete simulation on this historic mission in its 50th anniversary. Thanks you.
Superb work as usual, thanks very much and a merry Xmas.
Mick Hyde Thanks Mick - appreciate the comments - Meery Christmas and a great 2015 to you
This is simply fantastic. Incredible mixture of NASA audio and video from what I assume are at least several sources. What a great contribution to history generally and aerospace history specifically. We are so blessed to have the technology to create and share epic moments like this. I'm sure putting this together with all the source material and edits took a great deal of time. It is a most worthy effort. Thank you so much again, Merry Christmas and God bless you.
hckyplyr9285 thanks for the kind comments hckyplyr - It take about a week to put each episode together - Its actually easier if there are long sections where video is available as its easier to put those sequences together thatn doing all the animations. Unfortunately, during early Apollo missions, there wasnt that much real time video broadcast. Merry Christmas and a happy 2015 to you
Another great effort from LM5. Clearly a labour of love. I was only 10 during Apollo 8, but remember it well. A bright closure to an otherwise dark year, in many ways. Looking forward to the rest of the mission.
gort58 Thanks Gort - am glad you are liking it and hope it brings some good memories - enjoy the rest of the series - LM5
Thanks so much for this fantastic programming.
+Innocent Smith you are most welcome innocent - regards LM5
What a ballsy move......to take a trip to the moon via the Mighty Saturn V, that had never propelled man before.
PHANTASTIC idea to do an Apollo 8 complete mission! In fact the Apollo 8 launch was the first I saw on TV at the age of 8!
astrohardy thanks for your comment astro - I was 2 years old when this one happened - I cant remember much lol
I was about to be born roughly 6 days from the launch.
Outstanding and thanks for posting. I always considered Apollo 8 the most exciting of the Apollo flights.
Chuck Phillips You are more than welcome Chuck - hope you get to watch the whole series as it becomes available - LM5
Another great project ! It's been great fun and looking forward to more of Apollo VIII
TexasWorldMusic Glad you are along for the "8" ride TWM - enjoy!
pure history - so amazing to watch. moonlanding thrived humanity to its best.
Wow! You're doing this mission? Outstanding! Thanks again for your efforts in entertaining all the Apollo freaks (of course myself included.) Happy New Year!
John Brhel Happy New Year John - I count myself as one of the Apollo freaks lmao - welcome onboard Apollo 8
Thumbs up for this fantastic work :)
+Ivan Thiebault thanks for the kudos...appreciated... LM5
thank you for you swift reply. I do enjoy viewing your creations!! A labor of love, I am sure!!
Ron Ramsey always Ron....!
I just read your comment re 'part 2 is nearly ready for upload' . thank you kind sir
Ron Ramsey Welcome !
Thanks...Good to have a detailed vershion of the mission.
Fred Thompson thanks Fred - I hope I can do a good job
Crazy how those arms retract at the last second
First Frank Borman and now Bill Anders, June 7 2024.
Only Jim Lovell remains from this historic mission.
Can't get much closer to a Saturn V Rocket without being on or in it.... :) Good Job LM5
Thanks!
:)
Wonderful video, thank you
U r most welcome.. thanks for the comment... regards LM5
Very cool. Its kinda funny actually, in the past weeks i was watching allot of Apollo 8 crew reunion interviews. Its like u read my mind Lm5!
I'am looking forward to this series, for me Apollo 8 is on of the most historic flights and executed by one of the best crews.
salland12 Thanks Salland - I am hoping those who are subscribed to my channel got the notices of this mission being next to be uploaded? If not, I am a bit miffed! Anyway, glad you are along for this one - should be an interesting 6 months or so!!
This is great thank you. Personally Apollo 8 is my favorite of the Apollo missions, followed by 13. Coincidentally they were both Jim Lovell flights.
Anyway I always enjoy watching your videos, thanks for doing them.
stonewall01 thanks stonewall - appreciate the comments - I hope you get to watch the entire mission...should be a fun ride - LM5
***** I am sure it will and I am looking forward to it.
Happy Apollo 8 anniversary again everyone! One of, if not the most, exciting missions of all in my opinion.
Thanks for the upload! Funny that I saw Apollo 13 on the telly the other day, a mission which featured Jim Lovell as well. There's no such thing as coincidences! :P Merry xmas
RickyboyH Thanks for the comment Ricky - I hope you also got to catch the Apollo 13 Full Mission videos - nothing like the real thing! Merry Xmas to you too!
Mr. Module (lol), THANK YOU for your channel! I am a HUGE space nerd and since we pretty much have no seriously active space program right now post-shuttle I rely on channels like yours to enjoy. THIS is THE best one out there. Thank you for your many many hours of work!
laurie5658 LMAO @ Mr Module - please, stop being so formal, and call me Lunar ! ;-) lol Am glad that you have found the channel and it is giving you so much enjoyment. I hope that you find some favourites and stick around to see Apollo 8 thru to splashdown. regards - LM5
***** Sir Lunar, I certainly am! Currently on #2 and just letting them roll while I work. Keeps me sane.
laurie5658 Sir Lunar? I shall be writing to the Queen and wondering whether you can actually be awarded a knighthood for putting space videos together - I am guessing no...lol Am glad it is keeping you sane - keep working hard - regards LM5
I am looking forward to watching every single video on this channel.
Let me know how you get on with that quest 😊 regards LM5
Well, I have an hour a day for lunch, so one day/video at a time :-). I just finished the book "Rocket Men" and Kurson provided a link here. I am very thankful he did. What an amazing moment in history. These guys were BRAVE.
Kurson provided a link to my channel? Wow...that was very kind....so an hour a day...i reckon thats 2 years ..and you know anout the Apollo 11 series next July? Regards LM5
Last week I took a look at your channel, and I thought I only counted a few dozen videos. Today I revisited your channel, and...... I may have underestimated things here! I will certainly watch as many as I can, lol, that's for sure. This is a treasure trove of content!
it's interesting listening to the range calls. A minute in and it's barely a mile down range. The Saturn V lofted the craft vs the shuttle which made an immediate ~60° pitch.
I am so happy to see that no one from the hoaxer peanut gallery has sullied this wonderful retrospective.
LOVE your work! is the documentary used available on line, looks interesting
The boldest mission!
I'd forgotten, or never knew, the very first time the Saturn V had a human crewed flight was - you guessed it - Apollo 8.
"The crew was awakened at 2:36 AM." No thanks. Anticipation makes it difficult for me to get any sleep before an early-morning airline flight just to go on a vacation.
Where could I find this (or any) mission audio only? I'd like to carry it with me to listen to on long trips...or while I'm on my tractor.
Apollo 8 was an incredible display of American engineering first time human eyes see the darkside of the moon. Tomorrow the SLS will produce 8.8 million lbs of thrust setting a new record most powerful rocket ever brought to service in human history. Although I still say the Saturn V used it's own engines didn't have booster rockets attached.
3 down votes? how in the heck is that possible? These were proud American moments.

+ynp1978 Have to inject your politics into everything. You must be insecure. And no, I do not support them so don't accuse me.
Brandon Bennetzen Like the myth that OJ Simpson is a good actor.
Nay Sayers ~~~ Not very smart people do that stuff.....
Rooskies and Chi-coms
*_This is what we came to the party for._*
Just stumbled onto this - just in time for the 50th anniversary this December! I assume your're using "Orbiter" for this video?
Yes
We will return there one day
The communications were so clear I could hear what the astronauts were saying before Paul Haney could tell us what they said.
This was a gigantic step towards the lunar landing.A first of this magnitude always leaves a certain apprehension about it.A lot of people in NASA were getting cold feet as the date was getting close.Frank Borman's wife had made funeral plans thinking he wasn't coming back.He didn't know that until he returned.
As always, I'm grateful and impressed by the work you put into these and I will be eagerly awaiting each instalment.
What's the situation with the rest of Apollo 10? You've got three guys still waiting to come home!
Rhubba Hi Rhubba - glad you're along for the Apollo 8 ride....with regards to Apollo 10 - still waiting for the audio to be uploaded which will allow me to complete it. Will keep looking to see if they are and will endeavour to complete it once they are there. In the meantime I hope you enjoy Apollo 8 - LM5
I'm also working through the rest of the missions as well!
Rhubba I guess the full mission series are like box-sets....lol
Hope the Space Food sticks hold out.
airdaleva42
for me or the crew? lol
This impressive that mankind was able to flight to moon and a footage was in very low quality. I can't wait to see Gemini 2 Mission and a footage in 4K. It would be an Apollo 8 Remastered 😂
Do you have... or know where I can find any of the NBC News coverage of Apollo 8? I have found the whole mission from CBS, and a small bit by ABC, but I have searched high and low for NBC coverage and for some reason it's as if it doesn't exist. I can find all 3 networks covering other missions but for some reason NBC seems to have been left out of the mix as far as Apollo 8 is concerned.
***** Hi Music - I know what you mean - I don't have the NBC coverage - but would love to see it! regards LM5
Soooo, do you have any plans for another full mission video project in the near future? Maybe another Apollo flight?
I am pondering it...
Happy Apollomas 2022 y'all
Backatcha Chuck
what a bummer that HD video wasnt yet invented at that time. mustve looked damn interesting
Epic mission. Comparable to the Accomplishment Apollo 11.
I remember watching this as a very tired 5 year old. Its amazing that the Apollo program was stopped because it was a waste of money. Many of the spin offs from this program we use everyday and have made trillions of dollars.
I liked the staging at about 1.6 miles high and 4 miles down range. Yikes. The Mission Control talking head seemed to have trouble with orders of magnitude. :-)
Thank you John Glen for the ride. Never knew all of the problems that
you encountered and had to deal with and how you ever mad it back home
only God knows!!! What a Miracle ride!! Rally enjoyed listening to the
whole journey, as God has now called you home may you enjoy exploring
the rest of the Universe throughout Eternity!!! THANK YOU AND WILL DONE
SIR!!!
Paul Haney at Apollo Control in Houston.
super
Borman and Lovell had spent 14 days together in Gemini 7.
Coverage was on BBC2 from 1315 until 1500. Obviously they considered Grandstand to be more important than covering this event on BBC1 (during the winters of 1968-70 the UK was 6 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time)
alijanlondon if only the audio and the video was available of that broadcast!!!
***** interestingly no further Apollo report programmes were scheduled. Though unscheduled reports covered edited television coverage on the way out. Even the coverage of LOI wasn't scheduled, but coverage did begin on BBC2, as there was nothing on anyway, then BBC1 faded out of their programme to join that coverage. I think on your other clip James Burke says "BBC1 have now joined us"
alijanlondon yeah he did - I have always hoped someone had audio recorded the launch - but have never come across it in 30 years looking
Why are we not getting the links for the communications on the first part
Dale Tiger links?
If your wonder I’m pretty sure that he uses re entry orbital simulator for his videos
would you show is where to locate 'Apollo 8 Full Mission 02' please?
Ron Ramsey Hi Ron - there is no part 2 yet as I have only just started putting it together. I reckon it will be at lreast another week until it will be ready, possibly longer because of Christmas etc - as soon as I get it doen I will upload it and, if you are a subscriber to the channel, you will get a notification. Regards LM5
Ron Ramsey Ron - FYI - Part 2 is nearly ready for upload
You actually talked to Jim Lovell??? THAT'S FREAKIN' AWESOME!!!
Yoplaides Meida we email - he is a very busy man !
Yoplaides Meida and yeah - it has been awesome!
He's probably my most favorite astronaut to fly in the Apollo and Gemini missions. I absolutely adore that man.
I only spoke with Wally Schirra by phone, to his home in Rancho Santa Fe (CA), in 1995. I will never forget, a gentleman!!!
And Gene Cernan's office replied a paper chart that I sent that same year (1995). Another gentleman!!!
Today 47 years ago! :-)
+Chris Kinner yup and the last episode in this series..The splash down...is ready to be uploaded on the 27th...after which I think I deserve a holiday!! lm5
+lunarmodule5 Nice! You deserve it indeed! Thanks! :-)
By the way, I would love to see the full mission of Apollo 9 too. Would be interesting with the first space test of the LEM. But take your time! ;-)
+Chris Kinner yeah have thoight about doing 9 but am pondering on the next one....maybe a moonlanding....maybe...lol
50th Anniversary coming up.
RIP Astronaut Frank Borman
And we just lost Bill Anders.
Only Jim Lovell left from this historic mission.
This Apollo 8 Mission should be interesting LM5, particularly for me, I was born 3 days after the crew read from the Book of Genesis.
I hope you had a Merry Christmas LM5, and here's to a happy New Year, take care mate.
Gavin Mackie Yeah it was very nice thanks Gavin - hope your Christmas went good too and a hapy 2015 to you and yours - so I guess its happy birthday to you yesterday or today?
***** Happy Birthday yesterday thanks.
why is the audio track screwed out of sync, with no explanation or narration about the animatwd sequence apparently intended to provide information about the trajectory and course to the moon and back.
+firstname lastname ....I explained why this was in the video description...hope yhat helps - regards lm5
Would those who voited "dislike" please explain why? Thank you.
You really have to do Apollo 11 dude..
+Yoplaides Meida Well, again, I have said this before - Mark Gray at Spacecraft Films is due to release an Apollo 11 DVD set which basically does the same as the Full Mission videos would do except the spacecraft animation...but I believe there will be other visuals used in between the live broadcasts.
