2
00:00:15,899 --> 00:00:18,834
We choose to go to the moon.
3
00:00:24,874 --> 00:00:29,334
We choose to go to the moon in
this decade and do the other things...
4
00:00:29,412 --> 00:00:32,870
not because they are easy,
but because they are hard.
5
00:01:47,323 --> 00:01:49,587
- Look at that.
- That's beautiful.
6
00:01:49,659 --> 00:01:53,117
This has gotta be one of the most
proud moments of my life, I guarantee.
7
00:02:05,742 --> 00:02:08,506
With a flight that lasted
just 15 minutes...
8
00:02:08,578 --> 00:02:11,843
Alan Shepard became
America's first astronaut.
9
00:02:11,914 --> 00:02:13,848
In a parabolic suborbital arc...
10
00:02:13,916 --> 00:02:18,512
his tiny Mercury spacecraft climbed
to an altitude of just 116 miles.
11
00:02:18,588 --> 00:02:21,614
He experienced only about four minutes
of zero gravity...
12
00:02:21,691 --> 00:02:25,218
couldn't see where he was going because
there was no forward-facing window...
13
00:02:25,294 --> 00:02:29,458
and he splashed down just 302 miles
from where he had started.
14
00:02:29,532 --> 00:02:33,229
Those 15 minutes in the spring
of 1961 were just a taste...
15
00:02:33,302 --> 00:02:37,932
of other longer flights America's
first astronaut planned on making.
16
00:02:38,007 --> 00:02:41,602
But as fate would have it, Alan Shepard
would spend his next ten years...
17
00:02:41,677 --> 00:02:44,737
wondering if those 15 minutes
were all he was allowed...
18
00:02:44,814 --> 00:02:47,749
in humankind's voyage
from the Earth to the moon.
19
00:04:09,565 --> 00:04:13,001
They should give you a manual
for this thing.
20
00:04:13,069 --> 00:04:16,903
Damn, son, where on earth
did you get that thing?
21
00:04:16,973 --> 00:04:20,340
- You're gettin' old, boy.
- Stop messin' with that thing.
22
00:04:20,409 --> 00:04:22,206
I ain't gonna take no picture.
23
00:04:22,278 --> 00:04:25,509
- Bud, take a picture for him.
- I'm not gonna take a picture, I said.
24
00:04:25,581 --> 00:04:27,515
Just take a picture.
I promised my boy.
25
00:04:29,218 --> 00:04:31,584
They're probably gonna
bring him nowhere near here.
26
00:04:31,654 --> 00:04:35,021
No. Mr. Taylor said
that we could meet him.
27
00:04:35,091 --> 00:04:38,720
- Mr. Taylor told you that?
- Yes, he did. He wouldn't lie.
28
00:04:38,794 --> 00:04:42,730
If you ask me, Shepard's flight
wasn't such a big deal, anyway.
29
00:04:44,967 --> 00:04:49,233
Just a few more guys to meet and greet,
then it's all business.
30
00:04:49,305 --> 00:04:53,241
- More hands to shake?
- You should be used to it by now.
31
00:04:54,644 --> 00:04:56,703
- Didn't orbit.
- He's right about that.
32
00:04:56,779 --> 00:04:59,543
It was just like that monkey.
33
00:04:59,615 --> 00:05:02,379
Well, all I know is,
he was first.
34
00:05:09,692 --> 00:05:11,626
These gentlemen are
our drillers.
35
00:05:13,029 --> 00:05:14,394
Okey-dokey.
36
00:05:14,463 --> 00:05:16,397
Hey, boys, how's it goin'?
37
00:05:16,465 --> 00:05:18,057
- Mr. Taylor.
- How are ya?
38
00:05:18,134 --> 00:05:22,127
Like for you to meet Alan B. Shepard,
our first astronaut in space.
39
00:05:22,205 --> 00:05:24,139
Commander Shepard, it's a pleasure.
It's Bud, sir.
40
00:05:24,207 --> 00:05:26,300
- Bud, how are ya?
- Honored to meet you, sir.
41
00:05:26,375 --> 00:05:28,741
- My boy thinks the world of you.
- How are you?
42
00:05:28,811 --> 00:05:31,712
Good to meet you.
You boys are workin', huh?
43
00:05:31,781 --> 00:05:33,715
- Yes, sir.
- Hot one, eh?
44
00:05:33,783 --> 00:05:36,445
- Good to meet you.
- Good to meet you, sir.
45
00:05:36,519 --> 00:05:39,852
Finally give you a chance to see what
your money's buying-- hopefully, oil.
46
00:05:39,922 --> 00:05:40,946
Commander Shepard.
47
00:05:42,658 --> 00:05:45,684
Is it true you're gonna command
the first Gemini mission?
48
00:05:45,761 --> 00:05:50,664
Well, I'm sure whatever NASA's plans
are, they'll be announcing them soon.
49
00:05:50,733 --> 00:05:52,928
Maybe you'll be
the first to the moon.
50
00:05:55,838 --> 00:05:58,033
I'm the best pilot they got.
51
00:06:00,810 --> 00:06:03,335
I wouldn't bet against him.
52
00:06:03,412 --> 00:06:06,813
- Could I get a picture with you?
- All right, guys. No more questions.
53
00:06:06,882 --> 00:06:09,350
The man did come here
for a reason.
54
00:06:13,923 --> 00:06:16,721
What is this test
we're doing today?
55
00:06:16,792 --> 00:06:21,195
We have a logging crew to check
for hydrocarbons in the well...
56
00:06:21,264 --> 00:06:24,131
which gives us a rough idea
of its potential.
57
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,136
They have a probe they'll be lowering
down to take a look at--
58
00:06:40,416 --> 00:06:42,145
You all right, Al?
59
00:06:45,921 --> 00:06:47,650
I'm all right.
60
00:06:51,394 --> 00:06:53,055
Somebody get a doctor!
61
00:07:13,549 --> 00:07:15,710
Guess I'll have to learn
to fly left-handed.
62
00:07:15,785 --> 00:07:19,277
God, I wish we'd had this
translational control on Mercury.
63
00:07:19,355 --> 00:07:22,620
- Now you got a real window.
- Yeah.
64
00:07:22,692 --> 00:07:27,186
Okay, here is the O2 high-rate recheck.
Whose job is that?
65
00:07:27,263 --> 00:07:32,132
- I think that would be my function.
- Yes, sir. Good.
66
00:07:32,201 --> 00:07:35,136
- This is a beautiful craft.
- Yes, sir.
67
00:07:38,474 --> 00:07:41,841
I gotta go to the head.
Steppin' out, boys.
68
00:07:48,184 --> 00:07:51,119
Need you to log out as usual.
69
00:08:07,870 --> 00:08:11,397
That son of a bitch is like a sports
car, isn't it? A little two-seater.
70
00:08:11,474 --> 00:08:13,908
Yeah. It's nice.
71
00:08:20,316 --> 00:08:24,912
- What's on your mind, Tom?
- You've been going to the head a lot.
72
00:08:24,987 --> 00:08:26,921
I'm on a diuretic.
73
00:08:28,691 --> 00:08:32,718
- You're takin' medication?
- Yeah. I've had a couple dizzy spells.
74
00:08:32,795 --> 00:08:35,525
I think it's
a viral infection in my ear.
75
00:08:35,598 --> 00:08:37,623
- Flight surgeons know?
- Yeah.
76
00:08:37,700 --> 00:08:43,263
Wow. Okay. They sure it's a virus?
Is there a chance they could ground you?
77
00:08:55,351 --> 00:08:58,115
I don't know yet.
78
00:08:58,187 --> 00:09:01,588
I've got some tests
I gotta do on Monday.
79
00:09:01,657 --> 00:09:04,125
Just keep a lid on it
until then, okay?
80
00:09:05,294 --> 00:09:09,628
I mean, it's just, you know,
Deke doesn't want to split up the crews.
81
00:09:09,698 --> 00:09:12,064
- I know.
- If you were out, I could be out.
82
00:09:14,003 --> 00:09:15,436
I know.
83
00:09:20,843 --> 00:09:22,606
"Flight surgeon's report.
84
00:09:22,678 --> 00:09:25,943
Patient: Shepard, Alan B.
85
00:09:26,015 --> 00:09:29,542
Date: June 10, 1963.
86
00:09:29,618 --> 00:09:33,054
Symptoms: hearing loss
and ringing in right ear...
87
00:09:33,122 --> 00:09:36,182
occasional attacks
of extreme nausea and vertigo.
88
00:09:37,460 --> 00:09:42,762
Diagnosis: excess fluid in inner ear
caused by Meniere's disease.
89
00:09:42,832 --> 00:09:45,027
Flight surgeon's recommendation:
90
00:09:45,100 --> 00:09:50,163
immediate removal from active
flight status for all NASA spacecraft."
91
00:09:50,306 --> 00:09:52,171
I'd like to start...
92
00:09:52,241 --> 00:09:56,644
by introducing the prime crew
for the first manned Gemini flight...
93
00:09:56,712 --> 00:10:01,046
which will consist
of Virgil l. Grissom, command pilot...
94
00:10:01,116 --> 00:10:05,849
and John W. Young, second pilot.
95
00:10:05,921 --> 00:10:08,856
As many of you
may have surmised...
96
00:10:08,924 --> 00:10:10,858
the big element in the choice
of Gus Grissom...
97
00:10:10,926 --> 00:10:13,895
for the command pilot of the prime crew
is, of course, the fact--
98
00:10:16,599 --> 00:10:18,590
Well, congratulations.
99
00:10:18,667 --> 00:10:21,363
- On what?
- On your new status.
100
00:10:21,437 --> 00:10:25,237
- I hear you can fly jets again.
- With a copilot.
101
00:10:25,307 --> 00:10:29,266
I never have trouble finding one.
These new guys all need stick time.
102
00:10:29,345 --> 00:10:31,540
That's great.
103
00:10:31,614 --> 00:10:34,447
Of course, they're not gonna let
you and I fly together.
104
00:10:34,517 --> 00:10:37,315
- I asked 'em.
- I know. You heard what they said?
105
00:10:37,386 --> 00:10:41,288
Yeah. "Two half pilots
don't make a whole one."
106
00:10:42,358 --> 00:10:45,384
- You believe that?
- Oh, shit.
107
00:10:46,662 --> 00:10:49,529
So you thought any more
about the job?
108
00:10:51,934 --> 00:10:55,563
Yeah, I've been thinkin'
about it.
109
00:10:56,939 --> 00:10:59,806
Come on, Al. Not that bad.
110
00:10:59,875 --> 00:11:03,811
You get to be an arrogant son of a bitch
and boss everybody around. It's fun.
111
00:11:03,879 --> 00:11:07,042
Yeah, well, that's why
you're such a great boss, Deke.
112
00:11:07,116 --> 00:11:11,382
Well, it wasn't exactly
my first choice, you know?
113
00:11:11,453 --> 00:11:14,945
And if you recall,
it wasn't exactly my idea, either.
114
00:11:15,024 --> 00:11:17,254
Now you're paying me back?
115
00:11:17,326 --> 00:11:19,920
No. I'm doing
exactly what you did.
116
00:11:19,995 --> 00:11:22,395
I see a need.
I know the right man for the job.
117
00:11:22,464 --> 00:11:24,523
I go after him.
It so happens he's available.
118
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,593
We have high hopes of flying
by the end of the year.
119
00:11:28,671 --> 00:11:31,606
These are milestones
that have to be satisfactorily met.
120
00:11:31,674 --> 00:11:33,437
All right.
121
00:11:42,084 --> 00:11:46,316
Come on. You remember what it was like
back in your day, the days of Mercury.
122
00:11:46,388 --> 00:11:50,791
Anyway, I only answered one question.
The guy cornered me at my house.
123
00:11:50,859 --> 00:11:53,953
This Houston Chronicle reporter
cornered me. What am I gonna tell him?
124
00:11:54,029 --> 00:11:58,898
That you don't talk to the press
without your boss' approval, period.
125
00:11:58,968 --> 00:12:01,903
You let us decide
what's good for the program, Gene.
126
00:12:01,971 --> 00:12:04,565
Even if he's just fact-checking
a story?
127
00:12:06,408 --> 00:12:10,401
If you want to do a P.R. thing, I'll be
glad to take you out of the rotation.
128
00:12:10,479 --> 00:12:13,778
We could use a P.R. guy.
Jackie Gleason's a friend of mine.
129
00:12:13,849 --> 00:12:16,044
We play golf.
Maybe I could get you on his show.
130
00:12:16,118 --> 00:12:20,077
You could do a musical number with the
June Taylor Dancers. You'd like that?
131
00:12:21,957 --> 00:12:24,187
We could get you a pressure suit.
They could fly you in.
132
00:12:24,259 --> 00:12:27,956
- I'm enthusiastic about the program.
- I know you're enthusiastic.
133
00:12:28,030 --> 00:12:32,694
And we love that about you. You haven't
been here that long. Am I right?
134
00:12:32,768 --> 00:12:36,329
You love to talk.
You have a problem with that, you know?
135
00:12:36,405 --> 00:12:40,000
You talk to the wrong people. Didn't you
get enough attention as a child?
136
00:12:40,075 --> 00:12:42,543
- Stu.
- This isn't the first time!
137
00:12:42,611 --> 00:12:45,876
- I can come back.
- Are you flying to the Cape Friday?
138
00:12:45,948 --> 00:12:47,575
Yeah. Why?
139
00:13:06,869 --> 00:13:08,302
Let's go.
140
00:13:09,505 --> 00:13:11,939
I'm good. How are you?
141
00:13:19,848 --> 00:13:21,543
Okay, let me guess.
142
00:13:21,617 --> 00:13:24,711
"Labyrinthine reactions
indicated by nystagmus...
143
00:13:24,787 --> 00:13:27,085
accompanied by
continued tinnitus...
144
00:13:27,156 --> 00:13:30,182
suggest abnormal
endolymphatic fluid pressure...
145
00:13:30,259 --> 00:13:33,922
on the semicircular canal
and cochlea."
146
00:13:35,964 --> 00:13:37,397
Got it?
147
00:13:46,775 --> 00:13:49,869
Your mother said
to save the dog.
148
00:13:49,945 --> 00:13:52,277
Dad, I hope you have
a good time tonight.
149
00:13:52,347 --> 00:13:54,281
- I wish I could go.
- You do?
150
00:13:54,349 --> 00:13:55,816
No, you don't.
151
00:13:55,884 --> 00:13:58,478
- It's not gonna be any fun.
- I do, though.
152
00:13:59,688 --> 00:14:02,885
Why would you want to go
when I don't want to go?
153
00:14:04,193 --> 00:14:07,128
Picasso, you don't
want to go, do you?
154
00:14:08,731 --> 00:14:10,631
Good night.
155
00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:14,635
- Want me to drive?
- No, I got it.
156
00:15:07,422 --> 00:15:12,519
May 5, 1961,
the beginning of a new era.
157
00:15:32,614 --> 00:15:35,344
A. Bartlett Shepard's destiny
was first recognized...
158
00:15:35,417 --> 00:15:38,648
in a secluded field
not far from home.
159
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:43,714
Soon after, Alan B. Shepard, Jr.
answered his country's call...
160
00:15:43,792 --> 00:15:46,727
and volunteered his talents
as a naval aviator.
161
00:15:46,795 --> 00:15:49,320
In this capacity he sallied forth...
162
00:15:49,398 --> 00:15:52,390
on mission after mission.
163
00:15:53,402 --> 00:15:57,566
Onward to the fledgling space program,
where only two had gone before...
164
00:15:59,041 --> 00:16:01,407
fellow pioneers
into the unknown...
165
00:16:01,476 --> 00:16:05,105
Pam and Enos.
166
00:17:10,979 --> 00:17:13,106
This would be his legacy.
167
00:17:19,755 --> 00:17:21,814
Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.
168
00:17:21,890 --> 00:17:25,189
I'm Deke Slayton, the only astronaut
who's been in space...
169
00:17:25,260 --> 00:17:27,694
for less time
than Alan Shepard.
170
00:17:32,868 --> 00:17:36,497
Alan Shepard may only have flown
in space for 15 minutes...
171
00:17:36,571 --> 00:17:39,699
but he's given this program
seven years...
172
00:17:39,775 --> 00:17:42,903
of commitment and expertise.
173
00:17:42,978 --> 00:17:45,879
And it gives me great pleasure
to introduce...
174
00:17:45,948 --> 00:17:49,440
a great pilot
and a great astronaut...
175
00:17:49,518 --> 00:17:51,383
and a good friend...
176
00:17:51,453 --> 00:17:53,546
Mr. Alan B. Shepard, Jr.
177
00:17:53,622 --> 00:17:56,182
Okay, Al baby, you're on.
178
00:17:56,258 --> 00:17:59,193
- Schirra had nothing to do with this?
- I don't think.
179
00:18:04,366 --> 00:18:06,425
Thank you all very much.
180
00:18:07,536 --> 00:18:09,766
- That's it, gentlemen.
- All right. Come on.
181
00:18:13,842 --> 00:18:19,439
Come back. There's still liquor. The
brass never walks away from free liquor.
182
00:18:19,514 --> 00:18:21,209
In that case!
183
00:18:21,283 --> 00:18:22,716
Maybe one.
184
00:18:24,820 --> 00:18:27,015
No, seriously...
185
00:18:27,089 --> 00:18:30,149
I want to say
thank you for this.
186
00:18:30,225 --> 00:18:32,420
It's--
187
00:18:32,494 --> 00:18:34,621
It's been an honor
and a great privilege...
188
00:18:34,696 --> 00:18:38,188
to be able to serve my country
working with all of you...
189
00:18:38,266 --> 00:18:41,064
and to further
man's exploration of space.
190
00:18:41,970 --> 00:18:43,403
It's--
191
00:18:50,579 --> 00:18:53,514
I wouldn't trade
any of it for anything.
192
00:18:54,616 --> 00:18:56,049
Thank you.
193
00:19:01,123 --> 00:19:03,557
One thing
I neglected to mention--
194
00:19:05,727 --> 00:19:07,786
Is he retiring?
195
00:19:07,863 --> 00:19:09,854
Not that I know of.
196
00:19:09,931 --> 00:19:11,865
Why doesn't he?
197
00:19:11,933 --> 00:19:15,562
I mean, he's got all that money,
and he's never gonna fly again.
198
00:19:17,139 --> 00:19:19,903
I don't know. Maybe he is.
199
00:19:19,975 --> 00:19:22,944
That guy was drivin' me nuts.
I dumped it in Deke's lap.
200
00:19:23,011 --> 00:19:26,503
- Deke's gonna take care of it.
- Your lunch is on time.
201
00:19:26,581 --> 00:19:29,072
The board meeting's 3:00.
I got you the 5:00 tee time.
202
00:19:29,151 --> 00:19:31,210
- That's good.
- Will you be in tomorrow?
203
00:19:31,286 --> 00:19:33,618
- We'll see.
- Tom would like a minute.
204
00:19:33,688 --> 00:19:35,622
- Hey, Tom.
- How are you doin'?
205
00:19:35,690 --> 00:19:37,851
- Walk with me to the car.
- Yeah, sure.
206
00:19:37,926 --> 00:19:41,623
Fred is now an ear,
nose and throat man in Los Angeles.
207
00:19:41,696 --> 00:19:45,325
On my last trip out, I looked him up.
He let me watch some surgeries.
208
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:49,336
We got to talkin', and he's
pretty curious about your problem.
209
00:19:49,404 --> 00:19:51,338
What's the latest with that?
210
00:19:52,908 --> 00:19:55,934
Tom, first off, thanks.
211
00:19:56,011 --> 00:19:58,946
Believe me, I've been to my share
of doctors with this thing.
212
00:19:59,014 --> 00:20:03,917
The general consensus is that either
it goes away on its own, or it doesn't.
213
00:20:03,985 --> 00:20:07,978
I don't even feel the symptoms anymore,
but every time I think I've beat it...
214
00:20:08,056 --> 00:20:09,990
some doctor tells me otherwise.
215
00:20:10,058 --> 00:20:12,720
Has anybody suggested surgery?
216
00:20:12,794 --> 00:20:16,252
For Meniere's disease,
there's no such thing.
217
00:20:16,364 --> 00:20:21,563
What I do is I insert a small
silicone tube right in the ear canal...
218
00:20:21,636 --> 00:20:24,969
and that drains off excess fluid
into the spinal column.
219
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,099
And that works?
220
00:20:28,176 --> 00:20:31,942
I predict about a 60%chance
of no future vertiginous episodes.
221
00:20:32,013 --> 00:20:34,004
But I could lose my hearing?
222
00:20:34,082 --> 00:20:36,744
In the affected ear, yes.
223
00:20:36,818 --> 00:20:39,582
Yeah, there's
a small possibility.
224
00:20:41,756 --> 00:20:47,626
Look, why don't you just take some time
and think about it?
225
00:20:47,696 --> 00:20:50,756
If you have other questions,
I'd be glad to answer them.
226
00:20:55,770 --> 00:20:58,705
I know the medication
is making you drowsy.
227
00:20:58,773 --> 00:21:00,707
Okay. Go ahead.
228
00:21:01,943 --> 00:21:05,777
Okay, I want you to breathe normally
and think of something pleasant.
229
00:21:05,847 --> 00:21:09,510
A trip to Hawaii, perhaps.
You're doing just fine.
230
00:21:09,584 --> 00:21:11,984
You don't have any idea
who that is, do you?
231
00:21:12,053 --> 00:21:17,116
Him? Victor Poulos,
according to his bracelet.
232
00:21:17,192 --> 00:21:19,456
That is America's
first astronaut.
233
00:21:21,763 --> 00:21:25,529
Right. I think
I'd recognize John Glenn.
234
00:21:45,487 --> 00:21:48,422
There are a number of steps
that PINGS automates...
235
00:21:48,490 --> 00:21:50,981
that on an AGS abort
must be performed manually...
236
00:21:51,059 --> 00:21:54,187
like pitching you over,
switching the guidance systems...
237
00:21:54,262 --> 00:21:57,959
separating the stages
and throttling up to 100%.
238
00:21:58,033 --> 00:22:00,831
Now, of course, the AGS computer
only has a fraction...
239
00:22:00,902 --> 00:22:04,929
of the PINGS's
39-kilobyte capacity.
240
00:22:05,006 --> 00:22:06,439
Six K, I think.
241
00:22:06,508 --> 00:22:08,874
Bruce, I think it's five.
242
00:22:08,944 --> 00:22:13,381
Five. Just enough to execute
a manual abort if the PINGS fails.
243
00:22:13,448 --> 00:22:15,382
I think
we could land with it.
244
00:22:15,450 --> 00:22:17,577
You'd have a tough time
findin' the right place...
245
00:22:17,652 --> 00:22:19,916
without the T-GO
guidance algorithm.
246
00:22:19,988 --> 00:22:22,752
We could get close.
I've played with it in the simulator.
247
00:22:22,824 --> 00:22:24,849
Sorry I'm late.
248
00:22:24,926 --> 00:22:28,760
You're covering the guidance systems
operations today, right?
249
00:22:28,830 --> 00:22:32,425
- Yeah, that's what we're doing now.
- Great.
250
00:22:32,500 --> 00:22:34,434
Don't let me interrupt.
251
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,574
What's he doin' here?
252
00:22:54,422 --> 00:22:56,356
Let me get this straight.
253
00:22:56,424 --> 00:23:00,019
Shepard marches into Deke's office
and says, "Give me Apollo 13"?
254
00:23:00,095 --> 00:23:01,995
Somethin' like that.
255
00:23:04,699 --> 00:23:06,894
"All right, Al. Let's see.
256
00:23:06,968 --> 00:23:08,902
You haven't flown
in eight years.
257
00:23:08,970 --> 00:23:11,370
You never orbited
the Earth...
258
00:23:11,439 --> 00:23:15,876
never set foot in a Gemini or Apollo
capsule, or never served as backup.
259
00:23:15,944 --> 00:23:19,243
So why don't we make you the command
pilot for the next lunar landing?
260
00:23:20,148 --> 00:23:23,777
Guess he just stayed at the top
of the rotation this whole time, huh?
261
00:23:23,852 --> 00:23:27,754
Did you hear that they offered McDivitt
a spot on Al's crew?
262
00:23:29,057 --> 00:23:31,218
- What'd he say?
- Turned 'em down.
263
00:23:32,294 --> 00:23:35,320
He told Deke he didn't think
Shepard's ready.
264
00:23:35,397 --> 00:23:38,127
Oh, man.
265
00:23:38,199 --> 00:23:40,258
You don't have any problem
flying with Shepard?
266
00:23:40,335 --> 00:23:43,202
Why should l? Flight surgeons
don't have a problem.
267
00:23:43,271 --> 00:23:45,603
Deke doesn't have
a problem. Do you?
268
00:23:45,674 --> 00:23:49,110
- Take it easy. I'm just askin' you.
- I'm just answerin' you.
269
00:23:56,851 --> 00:24:00,787
- Alan Shepard.
- Mitchell makes a lot more sense.
270
00:24:00,855 --> 00:24:04,518
He'll get Shepard up to speed
on the LEM or cover for him.
271
00:24:04,592 --> 00:24:07,686
But it's gonna be like havin'
three rookies up there.
272
00:24:18,273 --> 00:24:20,707
See you on the ground, Stu-ball.
273
00:24:54,376 --> 00:24:57,311
- Hey, boss, give us the good news.
- We official?
274
00:25:01,282 --> 00:25:03,409
We've been bumped.
275
00:25:03,485 --> 00:25:07,353
Headquarters did not
approve us for 13.
276
00:25:07,422 --> 00:25:11,051
- I thought it was just a formality.
- So did I until a couple of hours ago.
277
00:25:12,494 --> 00:25:14,428
They don't think we've got
enough time to train.
278
00:25:14,496 --> 00:25:16,964
We got a year.
11's got seven months.
279
00:25:17,031 --> 00:25:19,022
- Same with 12.
- They know that.
280
00:25:23,405 --> 00:25:27,171
I told Deke that we'd be ready.
He says that he told them.
281
00:25:28,243 --> 00:25:33,579
But they're giving it-- They're giving
it to Lovell, Mattingly and Haise.
282
00:25:35,150 --> 00:25:36,583
You're kidding.
283
00:25:39,254 --> 00:25:43,554
We still got a good shot at 14.
We'll know about that soon.
284
00:25:43,625 --> 00:25:45,855
Did we do something wrong?
285
00:25:45,927 --> 00:25:50,227
They know how sharp you guys are.
We all know how sharp you guys are.
286
00:25:50,298 --> 00:25:51,925
What're they worried about?
287
00:25:59,674 --> 00:26:03,974
-Put yourself in their position.
- I don't get it. They've seen you train.
288
00:26:04,045 --> 00:26:07,845
They're just being cautious.
289
00:26:07,916 --> 00:26:11,079
How would it look if they gave me
the flight, and something went wrong?
290
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:24,830
I'm much younger than Alan Shepard,
and I'm in excellent physical condition.
291
00:26:24,899 --> 00:26:29,529
But there's been a lot of
empire building going on, and politics.
292
00:26:31,439 --> 00:26:34,374
I would've loved to head
my own lunar flight.
293
00:26:36,044 --> 00:26:39,207
But I'm not gonna compromise
my belief that a man should be...
294
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,305
fully dedicated
to the program...
295
00:26:42,383 --> 00:26:45,614
beyond his own personal ambitions,
that's all.
296
00:26:45,687 --> 00:26:48,451
Boy, harsh words
from a former colleague.
297
00:26:48,523 --> 00:26:51,856
- Well, that's Gordo.
- Well, all right.
298
00:26:51,926 --> 00:26:54,486
What we're tryin' to do here
is a little tease.
299
00:26:54,562 --> 00:26:58,362
We'll create a tease, a little piece
of film we can put in the beginning.
300
00:26:58,433 --> 00:27:01,197
Go into that
it was a rough comeback...
301
00:27:01,269 --> 00:27:04,204
and it seemed like you wouldn't make it,
and you finally did.
302
00:27:04,272 --> 00:27:08,971
And I'm gonna try to think of a question
that hopefully will lead you into that.
303
00:27:09,043 --> 00:27:11,341
- Hopefully.
- Maybe I'll ask...
304
00:27:11,412 --> 00:27:15,712
something about Apollo 13, which at
one point was going to be your mission.
305
00:27:15,783 --> 00:27:19,048
And the same thing with Apollo 1,
if you hadn't been grounded at the time.
306
00:27:19,120 --> 00:27:21,816
So in retrospect,
two incredible strokes of luck.
307
00:27:21,890 --> 00:27:25,417
We'll just go into it, all right?
Ask a question. We'll see what happens.
308
00:27:25,493 --> 00:27:29,327
We'll see what comes up
naturally, okay? We rolling?
309
00:27:29,397 --> 00:27:31,194
- I'm ready.
- You ready?
310
00:27:31,266 --> 00:27:32,961
Two. One.
311
00:27:33,034 --> 00:27:35,730
As the launch date
for Apollo 14 approaches...
312
00:27:35,803 --> 00:27:39,364
NASA reels from cutbacks
and waning support.
313
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,240
America's first astronaut,
Alan Shepard, now 47...
314
00:27:43,311 --> 00:27:47,372
prepares to become
the oldest American to fly in space.
315
00:27:47,448 --> 00:27:49,916
It's been a long road back
to flight status for Al...
316
00:27:49,984 --> 00:27:53,943
made possible
by an experimental ear surgery.
317
00:27:54,022 --> 00:27:57,458
So tell me,
given your medical history...
318
00:27:57,525 --> 00:28:01,928
limited space experience,
would you have chosen yourself...
319
00:28:01,996 --> 00:28:05,932
to rescue the space program
after the near-tragedy of Apollo 13?
320
00:28:07,001 --> 00:28:10,300
Well, Jules, I certainly feel
more than up to the task.
321
00:28:10,371 --> 00:28:13,704
I've had my ups and downs
like everybody else.
322
00:28:13,775 --> 00:28:16,471
But those problems are
behind me now.
323
00:28:16,544 --> 00:28:20,002
In fact, I'm in better physical
condition than I've been in years.
324
00:28:20,081 --> 00:28:23,676
Here we go. Twenty seconds.
Guidance still up.
325
00:28:25,153 --> 00:28:28,350
You have to remember
that it's not just me going.
326
00:28:28,423 --> 00:28:32,359
- There's Edgar Mitchell...
- 13, 12, 11...
327
00:28:32,427 --> 00:28:34,987
- Stu Roosa...
- 10, 9, 8...
328
00:28:35,063 --> 00:28:37,998
and thousands of people
involved in the Apollo program.
329
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,563
...3, 2, 1, 0.
330
00:29:26,314 --> 00:29:29,306
She's goin'.
Everything's good.
331
00:29:30,518 --> 00:29:31,951
Beautiful.
332
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,220
Cabin pressure coming down. Adjusting
from sea level to a space environment.
333
00:29:37,291 --> 00:29:40,226
Status check: Ignition controls
coming up all green.
334
00:29:42,230 --> 00:29:44,164
Communication has been
a little dicey.
335
00:29:44,232 --> 00:29:48,566
There has been some interference,
though it's been consistent.
336
00:29:48,636 --> 00:29:51,036
So I'm not concerned about it...
337
00:29:51,105 --> 00:29:53,403
if you guys aren't.
338
00:29:53,474 --> 00:29:57,069
You know, what I find
disconcerting is the delay...
339
00:29:57,145 --> 00:29:59,670
in the relay.
340
00:30:00,682 --> 00:30:04,049
A constant reminder
of how far we are from Earth.
341
00:30:05,286 --> 00:30:09,950
We thought you might be interested in
knowin', we have a Dr. House down here.
342
00:30:10,024 --> 00:30:14,120
He'll be monitoring the progress
of the mission for the next few minutes.
343
00:30:15,196 --> 00:30:17,130
Good evening, William.
Glad to have you aboard.
344
00:30:17,198 --> 00:30:20,998
- Thanks. Great to be here.
- He's wavin' back at you.
345
00:30:23,204 --> 00:30:26,105
Tell him I'm okay, Freddo.
I'm okay.
346
00:30:28,242 --> 00:30:30,233
He rogers that.
347
00:30:38,753 --> 00:30:41,688
Kitty Hawk, Houston.
You are go for undocking.
348
00:30:43,324 --> 00:30:45,690
Roger, Houston.
Go for undocking.
349
00:30:48,796 --> 00:30:50,730
And we're free.
350
00:31:03,211 --> 00:31:04,644
Beautiful.
351
00:31:05,780 --> 00:31:07,213
Very good.
352
00:31:08,282 --> 00:31:11,513
Okay, we had
a normal undocking, Houston.
353
00:31:11,586 --> 00:31:15,852
Dead band minimum.
Verb-7-7.
354
00:31:15,923 --> 00:31:17,788
Go to P-0-0.
355
00:31:17,859 --> 00:31:19,292
Enter.
356
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,793
Okay.
357
00:31:21,863 --> 00:31:23,888
Yaw left 60. Pitch up 90.
358
00:31:23,965 --> 00:31:26,433
Okay, starting left yaw, Stu.
359
00:31:27,502 --> 00:31:30,528
Okay. Boy, you look
mighty pretty out there.
360
00:31:30,605 --> 00:31:32,664
And starting to pitch up.
361
00:31:35,743 --> 00:31:37,335
- Flight, Control.
- Rog.
362
00:31:37,411 --> 00:31:39,504
We're gettin' an indication.
363
00:31:41,082 --> 00:31:43,414
We're getting an abort command.
364
00:31:49,090 --> 00:31:50,523
CAPCOM?
365
00:31:50,591 --> 00:31:54,584
Antares, the abort switch
on the computer looks set.
366
00:31:54,662 --> 00:31:56,527
Do you have a 1
in register one?
367
00:32:00,301 --> 00:32:02,235
That's affirmative, Houston.
368
00:32:03,638 --> 00:32:07,870
Neither of you boys has your thumb
on the abort button, do you?
369
00:32:07,942 --> 00:32:10,069
That's a negative, Houston.
370
00:32:14,615 --> 00:32:18,779
All right. We'd like to proceed
to reset the abort signal.
371
00:32:18,853 --> 00:32:21,287
Okay, give me the word.
372
00:32:21,355 --> 00:32:24,847
Okay, we need
the stop push button, push.
373
00:32:24,926 --> 00:32:28,794
Stop push button, push.
374
00:32:28,863 --> 00:32:31,127
The next thing's
the abort push button, depress.
375
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,358
Wait one
on reset.
376
00:32:34,435 --> 00:32:36,562
Abort push button, depress.
377
00:32:38,139 --> 00:32:40,107
Standing by on that one.
378
00:32:40,174 --> 00:32:42,335
Okay. You can reset.
379
00:32:42,410 --> 00:32:43,843
Reset.
380
00:32:48,015 --> 00:32:49,642
No change.
381
00:32:51,118 --> 00:32:53,177
That didn't clear it, Flight.
382
00:32:54,288 --> 00:32:56,916
Something had better
before the descent burn.
383
00:32:56,991 --> 00:32:58,925
Or the computer will initiate
an auto-abort.
384
00:33:01,629 --> 00:33:03,620
Suggestions?
385
00:33:05,733 --> 00:33:11,501
Have 'em tap on the panel. Maybe it's a
loose ball of solder behind that switch.
386
00:33:13,908 --> 00:33:15,500
Let's do that.
387
00:33:17,245 --> 00:33:21,079
Ed, we'd like you to tap on the panel
around the abort push button.
388
00:33:21,148 --> 00:33:23,514
See if we can shake
somethin' loose.
389
00:33:31,092 --> 00:33:34,459
Yes, Houston. lt just changed
while I was tapping there.
390
00:33:34,528 --> 00:33:37,292
Well, you sure tap nicely.
391
00:33:37,365 --> 00:33:38,855
I'm good at that.
392
00:33:38,933 --> 00:33:42,960
We'd just kind of like to sit here
a minute and watch it.
393
00:33:47,675 --> 00:33:49,609
I'm sure there's a way
to lock that out.
394
00:33:49,677 --> 00:33:51,872
- Lock out the switch?
- Yeah. Tell the computer...
395
00:33:51,946 --> 00:33:53,379
to ignore it.
396
00:33:53,447 --> 00:33:57,713
I sure hope so. We get that during
the descent, this turns into a bad day.
397
00:33:59,353 --> 00:34:02,720
I don't know how quickly
they can come up with it.
398
00:34:04,225 --> 00:34:05,658
What do you got?
399
00:34:06,727 --> 00:34:09,662
Flight, M.l.T.'s lookin'
at a software work-around.
400
00:34:09,730 --> 00:34:12,631
If we can't keep that switch
from closing, we have to make sure...
401
00:34:12,700 --> 00:34:15,533
the guidance computer doesn't look
at it and abort the landing.
402
00:34:15,603 --> 00:34:18,572
- You got that right.
- We'll find the guy who wrote the code.
403
00:34:20,408 --> 00:34:22,399
We got one orbit left
to do this.
404
00:34:23,711 --> 00:34:27,147
Don? Don!
405
00:34:27,214 --> 00:34:28,806
What?
406
00:34:28,883 --> 00:34:32,080
Somehow the abort discrete
is set.
407
00:34:34,889 --> 00:34:36,982
The one in channel 30?
408
00:34:37,058 --> 00:34:41,119
Write something to disable the switch
so the computer ignores it.
409
00:34:41,195 --> 00:34:43,220
It can't ignore it
during the burn.
410
00:34:43,297 --> 00:34:47,427
Right. So the crew has to wait
and enter our changes after ignition.
411
00:34:47,501 --> 00:34:50,527
Can you get up? What,
and then race through the keystrokes...
412
00:34:50,604 --> 00:34:53,300
hoping the switch
doesn't close again?
413
00:34:53,374 --> 00:34:57,470
Okay, I need coffee. I need Saltzman.
We gotta start from the beginning.
414
00:35:02,717 --> 00:35:04,742
Houston, Antares.
415
00:35:04,819 --> 00:35:07,515
L.P.D. altitude shows 49,000.
416
00:35:07,588 --> 00:35:09,556
Roger, Antares.
417
00:35:09,623 --> 00:35:12,717
Okay, I have Cone Crater...
418
00:35:12,793 --> 00:35:15,261
triplet and doublet.
419
00:35:15,329 --> 00:35:16,762
Copy that.
420
00:35:19,967 --> 00:35:22,765
They look just like
they're supposed to.
421
00:35:22,837 --> 00:35:26,329
There they were,
right below us, big as life.
422
00:35:26,407 --> 00:35:29,433
Don't worry.
We're gonna see 'em again.
423
00:35:29,510 --> 00:35:34,470
Freddo, I guess you'll advise us
on that abort switch?
424
00:35:34,548 --> 00:35:37,711
Yes, I'm workin'
on a little spiel right now.
425
00:35:37,785 --> 00:35:42,654
Whatever fix they give us, I want time
to get it entered before the burn.
426
00:35:42,723 --> 00:35:47,092
If they're trying to lock out the switch
we may have to wait till after the burn.
427
00:35:47,161 --> 00:35:48,958
- Why?
- It's part of P.D.I.
428
00:35:49,030 --> 00:35:51,260
It's in the computer.
It'll look for it.
429
00:35:51,332 --> 00:35:55,701
And if it closes then,
it'll abort the landing.
430
00:35:58,005 --> 00:36:01,964
Ed, you and Al ready to listen
to words on the abort switch business?
431
00:36:02,043 --> 00:36:04,068
- Go ahead with it.
- Okay.
432
00:36:04,145 --> 00:36:10,050
The procedure is
Verb-2-5-Noun-0-7, Enter.
433
00:36:10,117 --> 00:36:12,449
1-0-5, Enter.
434
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:17,651
4-0-0, Enter. 0, Enter.
435
00:36:17,725 --> 00:36:20,523
I'll read back.
436
00:36:20,594 --> 00:36:25,190
"Verb-2-5-Noun-0-7, Enter.
437
00:36:25,266 --> 00:36:27,757
0-5, Enter."
438
00:36:27,835 --> 00:36:31,566
Is it "4-0-0-0, Enter"?
439
00:36:31,639 --> 00:36:37,009
Okay, Ed. lt's 400.
4-0-0, Enter.
440
00:36:37,078 --> 00:36:39,205
That's 4-0-0.
441
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,306
- Got it?
- We have to let the burn...
442
00:36:42,383 --> 00:36:45,409
call up normally, get ignition...
443
00:36:45,486 --> 00:36:49,752
then lock out the bit,
hopefully before it gets set, right?
444
00:36:49,824 --> 00:36:52,588
- That's affirmative.
- That's a load.
445
00:36:52,660 --> 00:36:55,151
No, they've got to come up
with a better solution.
446
00:36:55,229 --> 00:36:59,859
If not, I'll just have to haul ass
punching it in and hope.
447
00:36:59,934 --> 00:37:01,993
We don't want them rushing
with this.
448
00:37:02,069 --> 00:37:05,869
One wrong keystroke could cause
any number of problems...
449
00:37:05,940 --> 00:37:08,238
all of them mission critical.
450
00:37:08,309 --> 00:37:11,039
Can we just hold off?
451
00:37:11,112 --> 00:37:14,047
Just let us hold off
until we come up with another fix.
452
00:37:15,249 --> 00:37:17,479
No, l-- All right.
453
00:37:17,551 --> 00:37:20,486
-What?
-They have to give the crew something...
454
00:37:20,554 --> 00:37:22,488
before they pass behind the moon.
455
00:37:23,824 --> 00:37:26,759
We got 47 minutes
to come up with something better.
456
00:37:31,065 --> 00:37:34,728
Let's take it easy entering those
changes. Make sure they're right.
457
00:37:34,802 --> 00:37:36,269
I will.
458
00:37:39,874 --> 00:37:44,538
Now, if the switch closes
before you're done...
459
00:37:44,612 --> 00:37:46,876
and it aborts us...
460
00:37:46,947 --> 00:37:49,211
there's nothing
we can do, right?
461
00:37:59,293 --> 00:38:02,091
Let's see if we can't get
ahead of ourselves on that checklist.
462
00:38:02,163 --> 00:38:03,596
All right.
463
00:38:05,599 --> 00:38:08,591
Guys, this is definitely
the better fix.
464
00:38:08,669 --> 00:38:13,265
If we set the program monitor
to 71 before the burn...
465
00:38:13,340 --> 00:38:16,605
the computer is not even gonna look
at the abort monitor...
466
00:38:16,677 --> 00:38:19,703
because it already thinks
it's in the abort mode.
467
00:38:19,780 --> 00:38:23,045
So there'll be a little bit
of a cleanup on the descent...
468
00:38:23,117 --> 00:38:25,415
but they're not
gonna be in a rush.
469
00:38:29,557 --> 00:38:30,990
Antares, Houston.
470
00:38:31,058 --> 00:38:33,891
Stand by, Houston.
471
00:38:33,961 --> 00:38:36,987
Okay. Helmet and gloves, on.
472
00:38:37,064 --> 00:38:39,862
Cabin repress, closed.
473
00:38:42,903 --> 00:38:44,768
Go ahead, Houston.
474
00:38:44,838 --> 00:38:49,502
We've got more procedures to pump up
that're gonna alter what you've copied.
475
00:38:49,577 --> 00:38:52,239
We think we've found
a little slicker way of doin' this...
476
00:38:52,313 --> 00:38:56,647
to make the computer ignore the abort
command if the switch gets set again.
477
00:38:56,717 --> 00:38:58,651
Okay. Stand by, Houston.
478
00:39:01,255 --> 00:39:03,189
All right. Go ahead, Houston.
479
00:39:05,259 --> 00:39:07,193
"Noun-6-2...
480
00:39:09,430 --> 00:39:12,194
Verb-2-1...
481
00:39:12,266 --> 00:39:15,064
Noun-0-1, Enter.
482
00:39:16,437 --> 00:39:21,739
0-1-0-1, Enter.
483
00:39:23,244 --> 00:39:28,079
1-0-1-0, Enter."
484
00:39:28,148 --> 00:39:31,117
- That's it.
- Okay, Houston. It's in.
485
00:39:31,185 --> 00:39:32,982
Roger, Antares.
486
00:39:35,422 --> 00:39:39,051
And Antares,
standing by for P.D.I. go.
487
00:39:58,712 --> 00:40:00,646
Antares, standing by.
488
00:40:06,654 --> 00:40:10,215
- Looks good here, Flight. We're go.
- Tell 'em.
489
00:40:10,291 --> 00:40:14,250
Antares, Houston.
You are go for Fra Mauro.
490
00:40:18,465 --> 00:40:19,898
Good show, Freddo.
491
00:40:21,101 --> 00:40:23,865
- You troops do nice work.
- I'll second that.
492
00:40:25,739 --> 00:40:29,732
Four, three, two, one.
493
00:40:32,546 --> 00:40:33,979
Ignition.
494
00:40:34,048 --> 00:40:35,982
We have auto-ignition.
495
00:40:37,785 --> 00:40:39,685
Antares, you are go at four.
496
00:40:39,753 --> 00:40:42,813
And guidance looks good. Roger.
497
00:40:42,890 --> 00:40:46,451
Down to 32,000 feet.
498
00:40:46,527 --> 00:40:48,995
Should be getting
landing radar very soon.
499
00:40:51,365 --> 00:40:53,890
Come on, radar.
Let's have a lock-on.
500
00:40:58,238 --> 00:41:00,069
Thirty thousand.
501
00:41:00,140 --> 00:41:02,301
We got altitude
and velocity lights.
502
00:41:06,246 --> 00:41:07,736
Come on, radar.
503
00:41:07,815 --> 00:41:10,784
We can land without radar
if we have to--
504
00:41:10,851 --> 00:41:14,150
We'd have to pitch over anyway
before we'd abort.
505
00:41:15,723 --> 00:41:18,351
Let's just see
where we are, right?
506
00:41:18,425 --> 00:41:21,258
If we can see
our landing site--
507
00:41:21,328 --> 00:41:26,061
When we do pitch over, let's hope we
are at 7,000 feet and not a lot lower.
508
00:41:26,133 --> 00:41:27,998
Twenty thousand.
509
00:41:28,068 --> 00:41:32,004
Flight, we need that radar
by 10,000 feet if we're gonna land.
510
00:41:40,681 --> 00:41:43,707
Houston, we still have
altitude and velocity lights.
511
00:41:45,219 --> 00:41:46,652
Come on, radar.
512
00:41:46,720 --> 00:41:48,187
What you got?
513
00:41:48,255 --> 00:41:51,190
Flight, let's try resetting
the landing radar circuit breaker.
514
00:41:54,561 --> 00:41:55,994
Do it.
515
00:41:57,297 --> 00:41:58,787
Antares, Houston.
516
00:41:58,866 --> 00:42:01,960
We'd like you to cycle
the landing radar breaker.
517
00:42:02,035 --> 00:42:04,503
Copy that.
518
00:42:08,008 --> 00:42:11,466
Okay, Houston.
It's cycled.
519
00:42:11,545 --> 00:42:13,172
Copy.
520
00:42:17,418 --> 00:42:19,511
- Bingo!
- Okay. Got it.
521
00:42:19,586 --> 00:42:23,386
Okay. Verb-57, Enter.
522
00:42:24,758 --> 00:42:26,919
Houston, can we accept?
523
00:42:26,994 --> 00:42:28,928
Can we accept?
524
00:42:30,764 --> 00:42:33,232
Stand by, Antares.
525
00:42:35,102 --> 00:42:38,503
Okay, we'd like
to accept the radar.
526
00:42:40,541 --> 00:42:43,135
Converge, proceed.
527
00:42:43,210 --> 00:42:44,677
That was close.
528
00:42:52,953 --> 00:42:55,387
And we have pitch-over, Houston.
529
00:42:55,456 --> 00:42:57,947
Roger, Antares.
530
00:42:58,025 --> 00:43:01,461
- Outstanding.
- Right on the money. Here we go!
531
00:43:04,465 --> 00:43:07,400
Fat. Fat as a goose.
532
00:43:07,468 --> 00:43:11,529
- That's beautiful.
- 3,000 feet. 75 feet a second.
533
00:43:20,714 --> 00:43:23,649
Okay, I'm going to move
forward a little.
534
00:43:23,717 --> 00:43:25,742
One thousand feet.
Right a little.
535
00:43:27,154 --> 00:43:30,089
Looks good from here.
You're 500 feet.
536
00:43:31,391 --> 00:43:35,191
Fuel is good at 10 percent.
You're at 170 feet.
537
00:43:35,262 --> 00:43:37,457
Two feet per second down.
You're on your own.
538
00:43:37,531 --> 00:43:40,022
Starting down.
539
00:43:41,101 --> 00:43:43,262
It says 90 feet,
4 feet per second.
540
00:43:43,337 --> 00:43:46,101
Five feet per second.
541
00:43:46,173 --> 00:43:48,164
Sixty seconds of fuel remaining.
542
00:43:48,242 --> 00:43:51,302
Three feet per second,
thirty feet.
543
00:43:52,513 --> 00:43:55,004
Looking great. Twenty feet.
544
00:44:00,254 --> 00:44:02,119
Contact, Al.
545
00:44:05,392 --> 00:44:09,192
Okay, Houston.
We made it through the landing.
546
00:44:09,263 --> 00:44:11,697
- All right!
- I'm on the surface.
547
00:44:22,609 --> 00:44:24,543
You did it, Al.
548
00:44:42,129 --> 00:44:44,063
Wanna take a walk?
549
00:44:56,944 --> 00:45:01,040
Okay, Houston. Let me comment
that it is a stark place...
550
00:45:01,114 --> 00:45:03,048
here at Fra Mauro.
551
00:45:03,116 --> 00:45:06,745
It's made all the more stark by the fact
that the sky is completely black.
552
00:45:06,820 --> 00:45:09,812
- Roger.
- Starting down the ladder, I can see...
553
00:45:09,890 --> 00:45:13,587
we have a tilt
because we landed on a slope.
554
00:45:13,660 --> 00:45:16,788
The landing gear struts appear
to be about evenly depressed.
555
00:45:16,863 --> 00:45:18,854
Okay, Al. Beautiful.
556
00:45:18,932 --> 00:45:21,230
I can see you
on the surface.
557
00:45:21,301 --> 00:45:23,735
Not bad for an old man.
558
00:45:32,579 --> 00:45:36,242
It's been a long way,
but we're here.
559
00:45:41,521 --> 00:45:43,614
Okay. Goes in very easy.
560
00:45:45,325 --> 00:45:47,259
Take a picture this way, Ed.
561
00:45:47,327 --> 00:45:50,763
And then we'll swing it around so they
can see it on the television. All right?
562
00:45:51,832 --> 00:45:54,767
Okay, Houston.
We're proceeding onward now--
563
00:46:33,707 --> 00:46:35,800
Stand by.
564
00:46:35,876 --> 00:46:39,277
While you're looking that up, you might
recognize what I have in my hand...
565
00:46:39,346 --> 00:46:44,283
as the handle
for the contingency sample return.
566
00:46:44,351 --> 00:46:48,287
It just so happens to have
a genuine six-iron on the bottom of it.
567
00:46:50,490 --> 00:46:54,449
In my hand, I have that white pellet
familiar to millions of Americans.
568
00:46:54,528 --> 00:46:58,328
I'll drop it down here. This suit is so
stiff, I can't do this with two hands.
569
00:46:58,398 --> 00:47:00,525
But I'm gonna try
a sand trap.
570
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:04,001
- You got more dirt than ball that time.
- More dirt than ball.
571
00:47:04,071 --> 00:47:05,971
Here we go again.
572
00:47:06,039 --> 00:47:08,234
There we go!
Straight as a dive!
573
00:47:13,980 --> 00:47:16,540
Miles and miles and miles!
