  • Power must be brutally rationed after the crew flies around the Moon. Their cold, dark ship is reduced to little more than a husk coasting in space.

    Fun fact: at 22:47 the word pericybthion was used, but why not perilune? Here’s the difference:
    Pericynthion - Point nearest to moon of object in lunar orbit - object having been launched from body other than moon. Perilune - The point at which a satellite (e.g.spacecraft) in its orbit is closest to the moon: differs from pericynthion in that the orbit is moon-originated.

    A successful failure! I like how Teamwork was applied in this situation. Amazing how they handled all of this

    Gene Krantz is a hero of mine: his reaction to Apollo 13 is a case study in how to handle crisis. And now I find out his voice is a dead ringer for Dan Aykroyd!

    Looks like they could have scavenged parts from the service module and made a manual generator to charge the batteries

      In a weightless environment a manual generator would spin a long time

    At 34m50 talking about amps per hour doesn't make any sense. I will convert that to average amps to keep being mostly sane.

      I hear you there. The reporter got his units wrong. The engineers talk in amp-hours at about 40:00, so fingers in ears until then! :-)

      tpsu129 - It’s a podcast. I’m glad they put it on You Tube. I wouldn’t have found it otherwise.

      Complaining about the circles is like the diner who clears their plate, then when the server asks how the meal was, answers "terrible."
