- Apollo 12 - Trans Lunar Injection (Full Mission 02)
The second video in the full mission series of Apollo 12. Earth Orbit - the crew and MCC check that the lightning strike has not damaged any systems onboard the spacecraft or the booster. The platform is aligned and preparations are made for TLI. President Nixon talks to the launch control team.
This second part of the Apollo 12 mission contains the transcript for the air to ground, photos of the launch and footage of the LCC gathering of Pres Nixon. Where real time video is not available I have used Orbiter Spaceflight Simulator to depict how things might have looked.

Amazing how well the Saturn V continued all the way to staging and orbit .
I love how Commander Conrad is calling out the numbers after the lighting anomaly .
He was cool and accurate in an EXTREMELY unusual situation .
I think the other guys were just giggling and aghast at the possibilities .
I'm loving these videos. I remember being woken up for key events in the Apollo program. Planted on the couch and watched grainy black and white pictures and commentary that I could barely understand. Now, being a stickler for understanding things on a very technical level, these videos have helped me catch up with what I missed. Great work.
Going to p00 cracks me up every time. :)
yeah...just glad the acronym is P00 and not Poo...lol
oh god dont.... pls dont give the conspiracy nuts more ideas.... "they hypnotised the crews to "think" they landed on the moon" omg i can hear it now
Brandon Bennetzen yes know about this.... my Uncle was working at NASA at the time of Apollo and actually mentioned this.... im not sure excatly what his job was but i knkow it he was at the cape and was involed in the launch some how.. anyways i know what you are talking about im jus freaked out when i saw you say it and was thinking "omg" because of how Apollo Hoax nuts will grab at anything..... so yeah sorry for confusion
Fun fact: the ENEMA program handled clearing the software scheduler and could interact badly with the P00 startup program, leading to this comment in the Apollo software code: "DO NOT USE ENEMA WITHOUT CONSULTING P00 PEOPLE"
At about 52:12 Pete Conrad mentions the idea that the lightning strike that hit them might well have been their own static discharge. Pretty cool how early in the mission they narrowed it down to the most likely cause. And awfully brave to head to the moon having taken that sort of a jolt.
That's what the two revs in low earth orbit were meant for. Make sure everything is in shape . The only concern they really had was that the lightning strike screwed with the parachutes. Wasn't anything anyone could do about it, so they proceeded with the mission, the logic being that they'd be just as dead if they aborted and the chutes didn't work versus eight days later.. I think the only lasting effect was the gage for the partial pressure co2 was knocked out.
I love hearing the casual banter between the astronauts and the capcoms...I guess when you're spending ten days in space with someone you've got to be on good terms with them!
This stuff LITERALLY NEVER GETS OLD
I love the configuration of the stack at this stage of the mission with the tower jet gone and the SLA panels still on. Looks like something they could have sent to Mars. Great work again!
Gonna be a great series!! Thanks for all your hard work!!!
heys keno....glad you are liking it so far! regards LM5
Love these videos could follow them all day. Thank you for your hard work.
You are more than welcome Richard... Regards LM5
This was really good, I remember as a kid from 1969, all the way through 1975 the entire Apollo Space program. This was a great time to be an American when we the people had an actual space program...
Some really great editing, and quality sound. The graphics were spot on as well. Thank you so very much lunarmodule5.
Thanks Wang....the series have improved over the years and I am pleased with the way this series is looking.regards LM5
I know how it ends, but it's still exciting!! Thank you, wonderful job putting this together.
hi David. ..yeah it is a lot more work and probably adds 12 hours onto the usual time it takes to put one of these together...but I have been thinking about how to add the transcript and this is the best way I could come up with. I might regret it come episode 43 but at the moment am satisfied with the way it came out....regards LM5
I hope you know how much I love these videos you make on our old awesome Moon Missions! Keep it up!!
Bravo once more, LM5! Thanks for adding the dialog, know it's more work but a very nice addition
hey there Phillip....thanks for the comments...the captipns will mean it takes me more time to do the episode but I think it will enhance the series. ...regards LM5
Looking forward to the next video, the captions are a great addition. Thanks for all your hard work!
you are more than welcome ...regards LM5
Fantastic, thanks for putting this up
You are more than welcome - regards LM5
thank you very much. fantastic work
Thanks for continuing to make new videos. I've grown quite addicted to this stuff.
You are welcome Uzuki...regards LM5
As always, great job with this video!
thanks Joachim ...I appreciate that... LM5
Thank you thank you! These guys have great humor especially Carr as capcom. Loved Neil Armstrong confirming to Conrad about not hearing the RCS thruster fire.. really reminds you just how new all of this was to them. And the transcript really helps, worth the extra effort and much appreciated. p00 and accept!
Hi Studio..yeah I think the transcripts just polish it off. It does take a lot more time and effort but it's hopefully going to be worth it at the end of the series. Regards as always LM5
I listen to your videos at work and I can't get enough of listening to the front lines from the glory days of our space program. You do fantastic work and thank you for it!
Thanks Nich I appreciate your feedback. ..I think a lot of viewers of the channel view and listen to them at work...hope it gets you through your day...regards LM5
Thank you so much for all this hard work!
Thanks Steel...am glad you are liking the next series. ..Regards LM5
Nixon a lying SOB bastard.
"I'm not a crook." ✌🏼✌🏼
This is fantastic! Twelve is one of my favorite Apollos.
hope you are going to like the series...regards LM5
I know the S-IVB wasn't the biggest and baddest, but it sure had to do a lot of things right, like aim itself, restart, and leave orbit. Douglas really went the extra miles.
The ironic thing is that the rocket TRIGGERED the lightning. The weather was not stormy at the Cape, just socked in and very rainy, BUT, unknown to all, the clouds had a fair amount of static charge in them. Not enough to jump to ground on it's own. The rockets exhaust provided a perfect path to the ground (the 2 strokes of lightning ran down the plume and struck the tower)
It is ironic only in an Alanis Morissette kind of way. That is to say, not at all.
Self-inflicted lightening
+Star Gazer Huh-heh! Oh, boy. God damn. Jokes incoming..."Isn't it Ionic"..?
Just wanted to give you a big THANK YOU for uploading these and spending the time doing it! It can't be easy :/. Can't wait for the Apollo 12 series to finish!
Hi power...it isn't easy but I love the challenge and the finished article. Thanks for the comment regards LM5
Just discovered this channel, loving the content! Subbed
Welcome aboard Josh
Great video. Stole screenshots with all the numbers called out to and by Conrad starting about 01:47. Met Alan Bean and Richard Gordon many times since 2000. Richard sold me the A12 Flown TLI page. Alan signed it a few years later and added SCE to Aux. I would post photos if I could.
That would be a prized possession!
I like how after Tricky Dick spoke, someone edited in radio static to make it sound like applause.
There was substantial applause for President Nixon’s remarks.
You've done a splendid job on these Apollo 12 videos.
Thanks yak
I hate hearing Nixon thanks to him we've gone in circles for thirty years with the shuttle could have been on Mars in the 80's
And Obama cancelled Shuttle program and nearly destroyed all US astronautics.
Fantastic job LM5!
Thanks J appreciate the comment regards LM5
Thanks for the dialogue captions LM5. Great to see some shots of Jack King in action from 15:48.
Thanks again Gort - the captions take a lot of time and patience but the result is quite good I think. Jack King - Legend! LM5
The editing work that this took... Good stuff
hi Sax...it's all about concentration and an eye for detail and copious cups of coffee lol
Yeah very cool. Never tried the Saturn V in Orbiter 2016 if it works on that version. Looks good too!
I love these.
Awesome! Thanks!!!
Welcome! !! regards LM5
"Go for TLI" I consider it one of the most exciting moments... Someday hear the “Go for TMI? (M of Mars) Thanks LM5!!
Thanks Hector regards LM5
Good job. Best wishes from Italy.
Thanks!
Hi LM5; God, you gotta love this stuff! I don't know what I ever did without you!
I'd like to make a suggestion, if I may--at 0:27 in your video (000:13:55 MET) the reference that Pete is making is '...logic bus A3 dash 4 Breaker' (not 'Baker'). Pete was referring to a circuit breaker for the SCS. Thank you very much.
Hi Dave - thanks for the support as always - with ref the typo.....I am pointing the finger at the Apollo 12 Flight Journal! ;-)
Wow! Lm5 you are awesome
Thank you for all the hard work Lemmy. (can I call you Lemmy?) Now let's go to The Moon! 🌙
Thank you. (Worked at JPL 1973-1986
you are always welcome Harry....regards LM5
Brilliant work you're doing, thank you VERY much for your efforts! And wow, don't ya just love listening to Pete Conrad?
thanks ed ...you are more tgan welcome. ..This crew is definitely unique ! regards LM5
Whew... I'm getting P00ped out...
I'm just grateful LM5 never gets P00ped out doing this, and does his usual, wonderfully thorough job. Beyond doubt one of the best channels on the 'Tube......
Sorry about wearing you out Ali...lol...and are u only at TLI? Lol regards LM5
***** Yeah, I just finally did get my suit dried out from splashdown on 13... I gotta bad habit of doing things in bass-ackwards fashion.. 13, 12.... 10 next. Sounds like a countdown. Sort of a 'retrograde' approach.....
The saga continues! Ready to follow another flight to the moon with LM5!
hey there Ferrari. ..yep...here we go afain...it's fun this space history thing isn't it!! regards LM5
Happy 50th Apollo 12!
I also love going into P00 and P00, we have so much in common.
Thanks for the semi-condensed video. As most viewers, i'm having a hard time understanding the PADs and the other instructions from MCC. After all, i'm not qualified to fly an Apollo mission.
1:06:26
Soviet eavesdroppers like "Evgeni Sergeyevich, this is a freaking joke up there. Those Yanks are talking about fecal matter again".
The only thing that is garbled is Pete saying "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!!?? when they got hit by lightning.
Good video! At 51:55 Your delta V is listed as 1515 ft /s but it's actually 10 515 ft / s. Minor detail.
I always leave a mistake in just to see who is watching the videos carefully..lol..
12,Houston . Take me to the moon with you roger!
Hi, relatively new to the channel, just wondering what the average time I can expect to wait between uploads for these 'Full Mission' series is?
Hi Jack...glad to hear you have found the channel and hope you are enjoying the content. The answer to your question is in two parts. Firstly, it just depends which point in the mission the next video is....for instance, the launch sequences etc for part one took 2 weeks to complete...whereas part 2 only took 3 days. The next part is taking longer to complete because of the edit with the TV transmissions and wanting to show the s4b sep from several angles. The audio has to be edited for the gaps and all the simulator sequences captured, then all the captions have to be added. It just takes time.Secondly,I have family commitments and work full time, alongside producing a radio show and playing golf badly and flying online on flight simulator weekly....so time is precious and I put in as much time as I can into the series. This all means that Apollo 12 will take over a year to complete. I hope you will stay around and enjoy the mission and the wait for the next one! Regards LM5
+lunarmodule5 Thankyou for responding! And wow, it sounds like an awful lot of work, but from what I've seen, it's well worth it and I think this channel should be so much more popular considering the wealth of knowledge you have helped to archive here!!! I hope it'll make you happy knowing I'll certainly be along for the ride for the next year, and hopefully the years after! keep up the good work, it really is amazing!
thanks Jack...I look forward to your comments as we travel back to the moon....regards LM5
Pretty busy time for them in orbit to get the systems back on
yeah they had a busy orbit and a half!
I'm wondering if the LCC made a mistake at 25:10 saying Jim Mcdivit as Apollo 13 commander. Or was Jim Lovell still appointed to apollo 14 at this moment?
It was him misspeaking. Before Nixon speaks he says Lovell is commander of 13 and Shepard is commander of 14 as Nixon briefly greets them.
further vids for mission post TLI? :-)
hi Curt...yes...as with all full mission series the whole flight will be covered. The next part will take another week to put together...regards LM5.
LM5 would you please please tell me when this mission was launched and how long did it last?
nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo.html will give u the answers to all flights
This kind of thing should be shown at the Smithsonian.
hey there Chris...I guess no one will stand around the Smithsonian and watch these all the way through..but at least being on YT they are archoved...regards LM5
+lunarmodule5 Much thanks. I could listen to these all day
They all went into P00
amazing how rapidly they lose velocity. they lost nearly 1000 feet per second in about 2 minutes
Why is there a transcript in text to the right? What purpose does that serve?
It was an idea i had to enhance the series so used when pao spoke and during the EVAs...not going to use it again!
57:24 A great call … followed by “Hoopy-doo”????
Artemis just executed TLI 50 years later from the last apollo flight 1972.
You would imagine that Apollo 13 would have been the one to be struck by lightning.
I am trying to figure out how Nixon could interrupt MIssion Control for so long when a launch, esp one already hit by lighting, is up in the air, unless this is before or after the mission
Anyone know if the entire floor actually went off their controllers during this when 12 was in flight?
The footage is of Nixon in the Launch Control Center at the Cape after the launch - NASA missions are controlled by Mission Control, Center in Houston after "Tower Clear" call and the rocket is on it's way - LCC is essentially not in control at that point - hence the control room situation you see here
@@lunarmodule5 you are correct, I was thinking that was Houston
I think your videos of the missions are one of the most amazing things I have ever seen
52:25 is when they discuss what the heck happened
Is this real footage of the spacecraft, or is it 3D animated? I’m pretty dumb so don’t make fun of me.
Its all animated up to the point of the spacecraft docking which is the TV coverage along with the 16mm camera they had onboard. Any exterior views you see are animation. Hope that helps
lunarmodule5 it does thanks
P00, P51 and P52 are computer programs, right?
POO is the program the astronauts plug into the command module computer ...it is a reset program and any program can be started from the cmc while in POO ...it was also used so that mission control could upload new data to the computer. P51 and P52 are to do with realigning the inertial measurement unit - the IMU ...hope that helps LM5
24:50 Werhner VonBraun
do astronauts wear space suits during trans-lunar injection?
Yes they did - they didnt get out of the suits till after they had docked and extracted the LM
1:06:27 he says "everything's tickety boo" not sticky poo , lmao.
what always confuses me is why conrad says something about a simulation unless he is making an inside joke about the issue being better than a sim
Yeah, that's the joke. Nothing they did in the sims ever lit up so many caution and warning lights at once as those two strokes of lightning did.
Here we go again LM5
Good luck Delerium!
lunarmodule5
I’m going to catch you... 🏃♂️
I have no doubt...how are you finding 12?
lunarmodule5
Terrific. That launch was truly brown trousers stuff.
39:32
At 19:26 is Jim Lovell smoking a pipe ?
a lot of the astronauts smoked cigarettes or pipes
Yep
Glaube Mut Liebe .
19:00 "Blah, Blahblahblah, blah. Blah, blahblah. Thank you."
I'm just going to P00
We will wait for you to get back...
Just in case the moon is made of cheese, I hope NASA sent them up with lots of crackers!
1:11 Poo
woohoo first comment!!!!
uhuh...well done ykw lol
Roger will go to Poo 💩...lol
