1
00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:11,299
NASA ADMIN: OK, are there
any changes to the schedule? Arnie?
2
00:02:12,383 --> 00:02:16,346
ARNIE: Line item seven,
which is shown for all day,
3
00:02:16,471 --> 00:02:18,181
all of first shift Tuesday.
4
00:02:18,306 --> 00:02:23,936
The tank pressurization test
will not start until 13:00.
5
00:02:25,021 --> 00:02:27,440
NASA ADMIN:
When do you want to run the leak check?
6
00:02:27,565 --> 00:02:29,108
ARNIE: First shift Tuesday.
7
00:02:29,275 --> 00:02:31,986
NASA ADMIN: Arnie, you going to extend
that time out for five hours
8
00:02:32,111 --> 00:02:37,659
by cutting it off in the front end
of that LH2 storage tank pressurization?
9
00:02:38,660 --> 00:02:39,827
ARNIE: Negative.
10
00:03:16,864 --> 00:03:19,117
WALTER CRONKITE:
It's three hours and 32 minutes
11
00:03:19,283 --> 00:03:22,537
until man begins
the greatest adventure in his history.
12
00:03:23,079 --> 00:03:28,334
If all goes well, Apollo 11 astronauts
Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins
13
00:03:28,459 --> 00:03:31,129
are to lift off from Pad 39A out there
14
00:03:31,295 --> 00:03:34,757
on the voyage
man always has dreamed about.
15
00:03:34,882 --> 00:03:36,926
So it is now, before they go,
16
00:03:37,051 --> 00:03:41,681
as their gleaming vehicle
sits poised and peaceful out there,
17
00:03:41,806 --> 00:03:45,727
that there is time,
if only briefly in this busy morning,
18
00:03:45,852 --> 00:03:47,520
to think of those three men,
19
00:03:47,645 --> 00:03:52,483
and the burdens and the hopes that
they carry on behalf of all mankind.
20
00:04:04,620 --> 00:04:09,208
And boring through the vastness,
the blackness, and the cold of space,
21
00:04:09,375 --> 00:04:13,337
they'll carry the pledge made
eight years ago by President Kennedy
22
00:04:13,463 --> 00:04:18,134
to put a man on the moon and bring him
back safely in this decade.
23
00:04:19,844 --> 00:04:23,765
ARMSTRONG: Each segment of
the mission, every individual piece,
24
00:04:23,890 --> 00:04:25,767
has to be completed perfectly
25
00:04:25,892 --> 00:04:28,770
in order for the next step
to be possible.
26
00:04:28,895 --> 00:04:31,814
And of course the nation itself
is backing us,
27
00:04:31,939 --> 00:04:35,401
so we just sincerely hope
that we measure up to that.
28
00:04:36,152 --> 00:04:38,154
COLLINS: The whole Apollo program
was designed
29
00:04:38,321 --> 00:04:42,992
to get two Americans to the lunar
surface and back again to Earth safely.
30
00:04:43,117 --> 00:04:45,745
The enormity of this event
31
00:04:45,870 --> 00:04:48,706
is something that only history
will be able to judge.
32
00:04:48,831 --> 00:04:53,044
ALDRIN: Apollo 11 has very simply
been given the mission
33
00:04:53,169 --> 00:04:55,379
of carrying men to the moon,
34
00:04:55,505 --> 00:04:59,008
landing them there,
and bringing them safely back.
35
00:05:00,218 --> 00:05:03,346
CRONKITE: For in addition to the mission
the three astronauts will perform,
36
00:05:03,471 --> 00:05:05,181
and the experiments they'll undertake,
37
00:05:05,306 --> 00:05:07,809
these men will carry with them
many other things,
38
00:05:07,934 --> 00:05:11,354
many things that are
not nearly so easy to describe.
39
00:05:34,669 --> 00:05:36,629
During the planned Apollo 11 journey,
40
00:05:36,754 --> 00:05:41,133
we'll be concerned with such things
as mid-course corrections and docking,
41
00:05:41,259 --> 00:05:44,679
the astronauts, of course, will be
concerned with very much more.
42
00:06:09,453 --> 00:06:12,331
The flight of Apollo 11
is to be the culmination
43
00:06:12,498 --> 00:06:15,918
of a national effort and the most
difficult, most dangerous mission
44
00:06:16,043 --> 00:06:19,171
ever attempted since this country,
and the Russians,
45
00:06:19,297 --> 00:06:21,090
started sending men into space.
46
00:06:45,281 --> 00:06:48,951
38-year-old civilian
Neil Alden Armstrong
47
00:06:49,076 --> 00:06:52,580
is to become the first human being
to touch the moon.
48
00:06:52,705 --> 00:06:55,166
Aldrin will follow
just 20 minutes later.
49
00:06:55,291 --> 00:06:57,752
But Armstrong will take that first step.
50
00:06:58,461 --> 00:06:59,837
The mission of Apollo 11,
51
00:06:59,962 --> 00:07:02,381
a journey certainly
for the history books.
52
00:07:02,548 --> 00:07:05,134
The beginning
of man's greatest adventure,
53
00:07:05,718 --> 00:07:09,388
leaving this planet
to set foot on the moon.
54
00:07:16,354 --> 00:07:18,606
- CBTS 111: FLIGHT, CBTS 111.
- FLIGHT: Go ahead.
55
00:07:18,731 --> 00:07:21,400
CBTS 111: Verify Go/No Go for start
automatic launch sequence.
56
00:07:21,567 --> 00:07:22,693
FLIGHT: Verify Go.
57
00:07:22,818 --> 00:07:24,695
- CBTS: Copy.
- LAUNCH CONTROLLER: 561 verify.
58
00:07:24,820 --> 00:07:27,198
CS18, spacecraft ready switch on.
59
00:07:27,323 --> 00:07:29,116
Switch is on. Verify light.
60
00:07:29,742 --> 00:07:31,744
Roger, 560. Verify.
61
00:07:32,662 --> 00:07:36,374
All stations stand by to give a crew
departure status at this time.
62
00:07:38,167 --> 00:07:40,586
- CBTS to CTSS 111.
- Go CTSS.
63
00:07:41,337 --> 00:07:44,340
- LAUNCH CONTROLLER: CBTS.
- CBTS: Go.
64
00:07:44,507 --> 00:07:45,549
- LC: DNS.
- Go.
65
00:07:45,633 --> 00:07:46,801
- LC: STS.

00:07:49,637 --> 00:07:51,263
- LC: Eight.
- Eight. Go.
69
00:07:51,389 --> 00:07:53,349
- LC: OK. BSC.
- Go.
70
00:07:55,142 --> 00:07:58,604
LC: Verify elevator number one
at elevator number two
71
00:07:58,729 --> 00:07:59,772
at 320-foot level.
72
00:07:59,897 --> 00:08:01,774
320-foot level, verify.
73
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,323
214.
74
00:08:09,448 --> 00:08:12,410
Roger, you're go for crew departure.
75
00:08:12,576 --> 00:08:14,704
214.
76
00:08:14,829 --> 00:08:16,414
Roger, you're go for crew departure.
77
00:08:16,580 --> 00:08:17,790
Affirmative. Go.
78
00:08:20,751 --> 00:08:23,629
CRONKITE: The dawn of this day
heralded the dawning of a new age.
79
00:08:23,713 --> 00:08:25,756
It's a time of exhilaration,
80
00:08:25,881 --> 00:08:28,759
reflection, hope, fulfillment,
81
00:08:28,884 --> 00:08:31,929
as a centuries-old dream
starts toward reality.
82
00:08:41,063 --> 00:08:43,441
PUBLIC AFFAIRS OFFICER:
This is Apollo Saturn Launch Control.
83
00:08:43,607 --> 00:08:46,569
T minus three hours, four minutes,
32 seconds and counting,
84
00:08:46,694 --> 00:08:49,613
right on time as far as
the astronaut countdown is concerned,
85
00:08:49,739 --> 00:08:52,575
the prime crew now departing
from their crew quarters
86
00:08:52,700 --> 00:08:54,660
here at the Kennedy Space Center.
87
00:09:00,750 --> 00:09:04,336
Astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin,
and then finally Mike Collins,
88
00:09:04,462 --> 00:09:06,172
plus their suit technicians
89
00:09:06,297 --> 00:09:09,091
and Director of Flight Crew Operations,
Deke Slayton,
90
00:09:09,216 --> 00:09:12,720
now boarding the transfer van
for the trip to the launch pad.
91
00:09:22,146 --> 00:09:25,483
The trip in the transfer van
should take some 15 minutes or so
92
00:09:25,649 --> 00:09:27,109
to reach the pad,
93
00:09:27,234 --> 00:09:31,238
at which time the astronauts will board
the first of two elevators
94
00:09:31,363 --> 00:09:34,909
for the trip to the 320-foot level
at the launch pad,
95
00:09:35,034 --> 00:09:39,205
where they will then proceed
to ingress the spacecraft.
96
00:09:45,336 --> 00:09:49,507
We logged the departure
from the building at about 6:27 a.m.
97
00:09:49,673 --> 00:09:51,175
Eastern Daylight Time.
98
00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:55,262
The transfer van now departing from the
Manned Spacecraft Operations Building
99
00:09:55,387 --> 00:09:59,058
at the Kennedy Space Center
on the start of its eight-mile trip
100
00:09:59,183 --> 00:10:02,561
to Launch Pad A here at complex 39
101
00:10:02,728 --> 00:10:06,023
where the Saturn V launch vehicle,
now fully loaded with propellants,
102
00:10:06,148 --> 00:10:08,317
going through preliminary checkouts.
103
00:10:08,442 --> 00:10:09,902
This is Launch Control.
104
00:10:27,545 --> 00:10:32,925
We passed 10,000-odd cars
estimated parked around the gate 1 area
105
00:10:33,050 --> 00:10:35,719
at four a.m. when we got here.
Cars from every state,
106
00:10:35,845 --> 00:10:38,472
with little kids staring wide-eyed
at the Saturn V
107
00:10:38,597 --> 00:10:42,226
glowing in the huge xenon spotlight
15 miles away,
108
00:10:42,351 --> 00:10:44,478
and we saw teenagers with telescopes.
109
00:10:44,562 --> 00:10:47,606
It was the very same road
we came over eight long years ago,
110
00:10:47,773 --> 00:10:49,984
21 manned space flights ago.
111
00:10:50,109 --> 00:10:54,071
When we came out at just about the same
hour to cover Alan Shepard's 15...
112
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,076
...America's first manned spaceflight.
Americans cared then, I think.
113
00:12:02,389 --> 00:12:04,016
This is Apollo Saturn Launch Control.
114
00:12:04,141 --> 00:12:09,480
T minus two hours, 45 minutes,
55 seconds and counting.
115
00:12:09,563 --> 00:12:11,607
As the prime crew for Apollo 11,
116
00:12:11,774 --> 00:12:14,902
astronauts Neil Armstrong,
Michael Collins and Edwin Aldrin
117
00:12:15,027 --> 00:12:19,573
are on the terminal part of their trip
to the launch pad, in the transfer van.
118
00:12:19,698 --> 00:12:22,576
It's now making the curve
toward the pad.
119
00:12:22,701 --> 00:12:26,163
We have discovered a problem
at the launch pad itself
120
00:12:26,288 --> 00:12:28,540
as the crew is about to arrive.
121
00:12:28,666 --> 00:12:33,629
We have a leak in a valve
located in a system
122
00:12:33,796 --> 00:12:38,509
associated with replenishing
liquid hydrogen for the third stage
123
00:12:38,634 --> 00:12:40,594
of the Saturn V launch vehicle.
124
00:12:40,719 --> 00:12:45,057
We have sent a team of three
technicians and a safety man to the pad
125
00:12:45,182 --> 00:12:49,270
and these technicians are
now tightening bolts around the valve.
126
00:12:49,395 --> 00:12:51,855
- CLTS: CLTC, this is CLTS.
- CLTC: Go ahead.
127
00:12:51,981 --> 00:12:55,109
CLTS: We have a leak
on the S-IVB N valve.
128
00:12:55,234 --> 00:12:59,113
We have it in the override closed
position, to see if it'll get better.
129
00:12:59,238 --> 00:13:01,448
It seems to be getting worse.
130
00:13:01,573 --> 00:13:03,325
CLTC: Roger, which camera
is that available on?
131
00:13:03,409 --> 00:13:04,910
CLTS: It's on camera 18.
132
00:13:05,411 --> 00:13:08,998
TECHNICIAN: Camera 18, you can see
the men working on the hydrogen leak.
133
00:13:09,123 --> 00:13:11,250
PA OFFICER: Once the technicians depart
134
00:13:11,375 --> 00:13:14,044
we will send hydrogen again
through this system
135
00:13:14,128 --> 00:13:18,382
to assure
that the leak has been corrected.
136
00:13:18,507 --> 00:13:21,844
The astronauts now coming up
toward the pad itself,
137
00:13:21,969 --> 00:13:26,765
as the crew of several technicians
at the 200-foot level
138
00:13:26,932 --> 00:13:30,060
proceed to tighten some bolts
around a leaking valve.
139
00:13:30,185 --> 00:13:33,480
The astronaut team
which has just arrived at the pad,
140
00:13:33,605 --> 00:13:37,609
the transfer van now backing up
toward the elevator.
141
00:13:37,735 --> 00:13:39,987
In a matter of five minutes or so,
142
00:13:40,112 --> 00:13:43,115
we'll be ready for the spacecraft
commander Neil Armstrong
143
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,869
to come across the sill
at the 320-foot level.
144
00:13:46,994 --> 00:13:50,914
That is our status at two hours,
43 minutes, 47 seconds and counting.
145
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,666
This is Launch Control.
146
00:14:37,419 --> 00:14:39,671
- CBTS: MSTC, CBTS 111.
- MSTC: Go ahead.
147
00:14:39,797 --> 00:14:42,007
- CBTS: Astros proceeding to 320.
- MSTC: Understand.
148
00:14:42,091 --> 00:14:43,675
We'll get the camera.
149
00:14:43,801 --> 00:14:46,011
OK, Günter, you can hit the switch
on the camera.
150
00:14:46,136 --> 00:14:48,555
A2: LOAM, this is A2. IAS.
151
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,557
GÜNTER:
Roger, camera has been activated.
152
00:14:50,682 --> 00:14:53,435
MSTC: CBTS MSTC,
the swing arm camera is on.
153
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:54,812
CBTS: CBTS copies.
154
00:14:56,814 --> 00:14:59,525
GÜNTER:
The crew's approaching the door.
155
00:14:59,650 --> 00:15:00,984
MSTC: OK, babe.
156
00:15:01,110 --> 00:15:03,112
PA OFFICER:
This is Apollo Saturn Launch Control.
157
00:15:03,237 --> 00:15:06,073
We've just passed the two hour,
21 minute mark in our countdown
158
00:15:06,198 --> 00:15:08,742
and we are proceeding at this time.
159
00:15:08,867 --> 00:15:13,580
At the 320-foot level, all three
astronauts now aboard the spacecraft.
160
00:15:13,705 --> 00:15:15,082
Just a few minutes ago,
161
00:15:15,207 --> 00:15:18,377
astronaut Buzz Aldrin
came in and took the center seat
162
00:15:18,502 --> 00:15:22,840
to join Neil Armstrong on the left
and Mike Collins on the right.
163
00:15:23,006 --> 00:15:26,093
These are the positions
they will fly at liftoff.
164
00:15:26,218 --> 00:15:30,848
120 feet down, the work continues
on a leaky valve at the 200-foot level,
165
00:15:30,973 --> 00:15:33,559
the technicians still hard at work
tightening bolts
166
00:15:33,684 --> 00:15:35,519
around that valve at this time.
167
00:15:35,644 --> 00:15:37,479
STC: CDR, STC. How do you read?
168
00:15:37,604 --> 00:15:39,231
ARMSTRONG: STC, loud and clear.
169
00:15:39,356 --> 00:15:41,859

171
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:44,736
CMP, STC. How do you read?
172
00:15:44,862 --> 00:15:46,196
ALDRIN: STC, CMP. Loud and clear.
173
00:15:46,321 --> 00:15:47,531
STC: Good morning, Buzz.
174
00:15:47,656 --> 00:15:49,283
ALDRIN: Morning. How are you gentlemen?
175
00:15:49,408 --> 00:15:50,576
STC: Just fine, thank you.
176
00:15:50,701 --> 00:15:54,371
GÜNTER: Let me make a last check here.
CDR, LMP and CMP,
177
00:15:54,455 --> 00:15:57,583
are you ready for hatch close and do
you need any adjustment on your straps?
178
00:15:57,708 --> 00:15:58,750
ALDRIN: LMP's happy.
179
00:15:58,876 --> 00:16:01,128
GÜNTER: Roger. OK, good luck.
180
00:16:01,211 --> 00:16:02,671
ARMSTRONG: Thank you, Günter.
181
00:16:02,796 --> 00:16:04,339
ALDRIN: See you around, Günter.
182
00:16:05,132 --> 00:16:06,800
STC: All right, pad leader,
let's proceed.
183
00:16:06,925 --> 00:16:09,178
GÜNTER: Roger, we're proceeding
with closing the hatch.
184
00:16:09,303 --> 00:16:10,345
STC: Roger.
185
00:16:10,471 --> 00:16:13,015
GÜNTER: Sequence 441,
the CM hatch is closed.
186
00:16:13,140 --> 00:16:14,183
STC: Roger.
187
00:16:14,308 --> 00:16:15,767
PA OFFICER: The hatch is closed
188
00:16:15,893 --> 00:16:18,353
and we're beginning to purge the cabin
to bring it...
189
00:16:18,479 --> 00:16:21,523
...to the proper atmosphere for launch
190
00:16:21,648 --> 00:16:24,693
which is a combination
of oxygen and nitrogen,
191
00:16:24,776 --> 00:16:28,530
60% oxygen and 40% nitrogen atmosphere.
192
00:16:28,614 --> 00:16:31,700
Of course the astronauts themselves
are breathing pure oxygen
193
00:16:31,825 --> 00:16:33,619
through their space suits.
194
00:16:38,373 --> 00:16:43,086
Coming up shortly will be another
key test in which both the launch crew
195
00:16:43,212 --> 00:16:45,881
for the launch vehicle crew
and the spacecraft team
196
00:16:46,048 --> 00:16:49,301
combine together
with commander Neil Armstrong
197
00:16:49,426 --> 00:16:52,888
to make a thorough check
of the emergency detection system.
198
00:16:53,013 --> 00:16:56,308
This is the system that will signal
the astronauts in the cabin
199
00:16:56,433 --> 00:16:58,477
if anything goes wrong below them.
200
00:16:58,602 --> 00:17:01,522
We use the ground-based computer
to accomplish this test.
201
00:17:01,647 --> 00:17:03,273
It will take some 30 minutes.
202
00:17:22,501 --> 00:17:25,754
Neil Armstrong will be doing
most of the work in the spacecraft,
203
00:17:25,879 --> 00:17:28,382
responding as different cue lights
204
00:17:28,507 --> 00:17:33,262
signifying different difficulties
are presented to him.
205
00:17:33,387 --> 00:17:36,682
Our countdown continuing,
this is Kennedy Launch Control.
206
00:17:38,475 --> 00:17:40,978
RADIO ANNOUNCER: This is reserved
for Vice President Agnew
207
00:17:41,144 --> 00:17:42,521
and former President Johnson
208
00:17:42,646 --> 00:17:44,481
who have not arrived yet.
209
00:17:44,606 --> 00:17:47,484
Beyond that, NASA officials.
5,000 guests in all,
210
00:17:47,609 --> 00:17:49,444
including some 400 Congressmen
211
00:17:49,570 --> 00:17:52,656
and members of the Supreme Court,
the presidential cabinet.
212
00:17:52,739 --> 00:17:56,493
The NASA official who escorted us
over to this site today
213
00:17:56,577 --> 00:17:58,287
called it a Roman circus.
214
00:17:58,412 --> 00:18:03,000
We all know that NASA has cooperation
agreement with over 60 countries.
215
00:18:04,209 --> 00:18:07,963
PA OFFICER: T minus 61 minutes
on the Apollo 11 countdown
216
00:18:08,130 --> 00:18:10,424
and all elements are go at this time.
217
00:18:11,174 --> 00:18:12,217
Here in the firing room,
218
00:18:12,342 --> 00:18:15,137
the launch vehicle test team
still keeping a close eye
219
00:18:15,220 --> 00:18:18,849
on the status of the propellants
aboard the Saturn V launch vehicle.
220
00:18:18,974 --> 00:18:22,436
This problem with the leaking valve
is no problem at this time.
221
00:18:22,561 --> 00:18:25,522
We've actually bypassed the valve,
222
00:18:25,647 --> 00:18:29,067
but we are maintaining our
hydrogen supply aboard the vehicle.
223
00:18:29,234 --> 00:18:33,196
That big swing arm that has been
attached to the spacecraft up to now,
224
00:18:33,322 --> 00:18:37,618
will be moved back now, in five
seconds, the swing arm will come back.
225
00:18:39,077 --> 00:18:40,287
Mark.
226
00:18:54,051 --> 00:18:58,013
CSA 9: CBTS, this is CSA 9.
Arm nine is retracted.
227
00:18:58,138 --> 00:18:59,431
CBTS: CBTS copy.
228
00:19:50,524 --> 00:19:53,360
PA OFFICER OVER TANNOY:
Fourth test with the launch vehicle,
229
00:19:53,485 --> 00:19:55,153
checking out the various batteries
230
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,782
in the three stages
of the instrument unit in the Saturn V.
231
00:19:58,907 --> 00:20:01,618
We remain on external power
through most of the count
232
00:20:01,702 --> 00:20:05,831
to preserve those batteries which must
be used during the powered flight.
233
00:20:05,956 --> 00:20:08,542
We're just taking a look at them
by going internal
234
00:20:08,625 --> 00:20:12,796
and then switching back to external
again. The batteries are removed.
235
00:20:12,921 --> 00:20:14,423
The next time we go internal
236
00:20:14,548 --> 00:20:16,508
will be at the 50-second mark
with those batteries.
237
00:20:16,633 --> 00:20:20,387
They will remain of course
on internal power during the flight.
238
00:20:20,804 --> 00:20:23,849
14 minutes, 30 seconds and counting.
239
00:20:23,974 --> 00:20:26,435
All still going well
with the countdown at this time.
240
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,188
For status report, we'll now switch
to Mission Control Houston.
241
00:20:31,398 --> 00:20:33,942

00:28:26,331 --> 00:28:27,832
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, this is Houston.
353
00:28:27,957 --> 00:28:30,960
The booster has been
configured for orbital coast.
354
00:28:31,044 --> 00:28:33,213
Both spacecraft are looking good,
over.
355
00:28:33,922 --> 00:28:34,964
ARMSTRONG: Roger.
356
00:28:37,133 --> 00:28:40,303
D'you want some of these
lights down further, Mark? Mike?
357
00:28:40,428 --> 00:28:42,722
COLLINS: Don't worry about it
for the time being,
358
00:28:42,847 --> 00:28:45,350
I'm potting around with handholds
right now, Neil.
359
00:28:45,475 --> 00:28:48,353

00:29:11,334 --> 00:29:18,174
LOS at Goldstone, 1:33:55, over.
366
00:29:18,299 --> 00:29:19,425
ALDRIN: Roger.
367
00:29:19,550 --> 00:29:22,595
PA OFFICER: This is Apollo Control
at one hour, 51 minutes.
368
00:29:22,762 --> 00:29:25,723
Moving across the Atlantic now
towards Africa.
369
00:29:25,848 --> 00:29:27,809
And on the next revolution,
370
00:29:27,934 --> 00:29:31,854
the spacecraft will be accelerating
to the required speed
371
00:29:31,980 --> 00:29:34,315
to get it into an orbit
that'll intercept the moon
372
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,318
during the trans-lunar
injection maneuver,
373
00:29:37,443 --> 00:29:39,404
the burn with the Saturn third stage
374
00:29:39,487 --> 00:29:43,157
that will place the spacecraft
on its trajectory toward the moon.
375
00:29:46,202 --> 00:29:47,829
FD: Go/No Go for TLI. GUIDANCE.
376
00:29:47,954 --> 00:29:49,205

383
00:30:00,758 --> 00:30:04,095
CAPCOM: We just got telemetry back
on here, BOOSTER, and everything is go.
384
00:30:05,471 --> 00:30:07,348
ARMSTRONG:
Roger, everything looks good here.
385
00:30:07,473 --> 00:30:11,185
PA OFFICER: We're showing present
altitude about 108 nautical miles.
386
00:30:11,311 --> 00:30:15,940
We expect to be at an altitude
of 177 nautical miles at cut-off.
387
00:30:16,065 --> 00:30:18,359
ARMSTRONG: We're just
coming into the terminator here.
388
00:30:26,743 --> 00:30:27,910
COLLINS: Ignition.
389
00:30:28,578 --> 00:30:30,121
BOOSTER: We have ignition, FLIGHT.
390
00:30:30,246 --> 00:30:32,498
- FD: Roger.
- BOOSTER: We're go. Thrust is go.
391
00:30:32,623 --> 00:30:35,543

FIDO, radar confirms ignition.
394
00:30:39,922 --> 00:30:42,759
CAPCOM: Trajectory and guidance look
good and the stage is good, over.
395
00:30:43,468 --> 00:30:45,053
ALDRIN: Roger, Apollo 11 is go.
396
00:30:52,018 --> 00:30:54,437
PA OFFICER:
Telemetry and radar tracking both solid.
397
00:31:13,539 --> 00:31:15,208
- BOOSTER: Cut-off.
- FD: Roger.
398
00:31:15,333 --> 00:31:18,753
CAPCOM: We show cut-off
and we copy the numbers in noun 62.
399
00:31:21,422 --> 00:31:26,302
ARMSTRONG: Houston, Apollo 11,
that Saturn gave us a magnificent ride.
400
00:31:26,427 --> 00:31:30,056
CAPCOM: Roger 11, it certainly looks
like you're well on your way now.
401
00:31:30,181 --> 00:31:33,059
PA OFFICER: That was Neil Armstrong
praising the launch vehicle.
402
00:31:35,228 --> 00:31:36,604
- FLIGHT FIDO.
- FLIGHT: Go.
403
00:31:36,729 --> 00:31:38,773
We finally got some radar data back.
Looks good.
404
00:31:38,940 --> 00:31:41,692
We had a good burn. We've got
a good flight to the moon coming up.
405
00:31:41,818 --> 00:31:42,985
FD: Roger.
406
00:31:43,444 --> 00:31:45,988
CAPCOM: FLIGHT CAPCOM,
you want me to pass up those times?
407
00:31:46,114 --> 00:31:47,824
- FLIGHT: That's affirm.
- CAPCOM: OK.
408
00:31:49,992 --> 00:31:51,744
Apollo 11, this is Houston.
409
00:31:51,869 --> 00:31:55,206
For your information, we expect
the maneuver to separation attitude
410
00:31:55,289 --> 00:31:59,627
to begin at three plus 05 plus 03.
411
00:31:59,752 --> 00:32:01,129
PA OFFICER: The crew pressing ahead
412
00:32:01,254 --> 00:32:04,340
with their transposition
and docking maneuver.
413
00:32:04,465 --> 00:32:11,055
The spacecraft, after having separated
the Saturn third stage, turning around,
414
00:32:11,180 --> 00:32:12,640
docking with the lunar module,
415
00:32:12,765 --> 00:32:16,644
extracting the lunar module
from the Saturn third stage,
416
00:32:16,769 --> 00:32:19,272
and pushing ahead en route to the moon.
417
00:32:21,315 --> 00:32:23,359
ARMSTRONG:
He's a little bit to our right.
418
00:32:23,484 --> 00:32:24,610
ALDRIN: OK, I see him.
419
00:32:24,735 --> 00:32:26,571
ARMSTRONG:
We need about a five-degree right,
420
00:32:26,654 --> 00:32:30,408
- we need to stop our...
- ALDRIN: OK, let's stop here.
421
00:32:31,868 --> 00:32:33,703
ARMSTRONG: He's pretty far away...
422
00:32:35,329 --> 00:32:37,206
ALDRIN:
How long do we want to run this film?
423
00:32:38,583 --> 00:32:41,002
ARMSTRONG: How does he look, Mike?
424
00:32:41,127 --> 00:32:42,503
OK, you got a 100.4 now.
425
00:32:44,255 --> 00:32:46,007
PA OFFICER: It's a very weak signal.
426
00:32:46,132 --> 00:32:49,093
We believe that Mike Collins
is now maneuvering the spacecraft.
427
00:32:49,218 --> 00:32:51,971
The antenna patterns
aren't too good at the moment.
428
00:32:54,056 --> 00:32:56,350
COLLINS: Flies like a spacecraft
instead of a simulator.
429
00:33:02,023 --> 00:33:05,693
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, this is Houston
broadcasting in the blind,
430
00:33:05,818 --> 00:33:08,446
request Omni Bravo if you read us, out.
431
00:33:08,571 --> 00:33:12,074
ALDRIN: When a little piece of something
hits the...
432
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,368
What do you call that covering?
433
00:33:14,494 --> 00:33:17,371
The whole LM quivers every so often.
434
00:33:17,455 --> 00:33:20,416
All the surface of it, you know,
shakes like that.
435
00:33:20,541 --> 00:33:22,919
Just in one spot; it's not being hit.
436
00:33:23,085 --> 00:33:24,629
Stand by, we're close.
437
00:33:46,567 --> 00:33:49,111
ALDRIN: Hey, Houston, Apollo 11,
all 12 latches are locked.
438
00:33:49,237 --> 00:33:51,656
PA OFFICER: Buzz Aldrin reporting
that all 12 of the latches
439
00:33:51,781 --> 00:33:54,200
in the docking mechanism have locked.
440
00:33:54,325 --> 00:33:56,494
ARMSTRONG: Houston,
we're ready for LM ejection.
441
00:33:59,997 --> 00:34:02,166
We are sep'd,
we have a cryo press light.
442
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,921
COLLINS: Houston, Apollo 11,
we've completed our maneuver.
443
00:34:07,797 --> 00:34:09,131
CAPCOM: Houston, roger out.
444
00:34:09,966 --> 00:34:13,344
PA OFFICER: This is Apollo Control at
six hours, 16 minutes into the mission.
445
00:34:13,469 --> 00:34:19,267
Velocity now 11,479 feet per second.
446
00:34:19,392 --> 00:34:24,689
Apollo 11's distance from Earth,
27,938 nautical miles.
447
00:34:25,731 --> 00:34:27,567
CAPCOM is now Charlie Duke
448
00:34:27,692 --> 00:34:30,444
and Gene Kranz and his white team
of flight controllers
449
00:34:30,570 --> 00:34:33,197
is preparing to take over
the responsibility
450
00:34:33,322 --> 00:34:35,283
from Cliff Charlesworth's team.
451
00:34:35,408 --> 00:34:37,368
COLLINS: The PTC has started now.
It looks good to us
452
00:34:37,493 --> 00:34:39,370
and we'll be ready to copy
in a minute or two.
453
00:34:39,495 --> 00:34:40,913
Roger, we see it increasing now.
454
00:34:41,038 --> 00:34:42,707
PA OFFICER:
The spacecraft will be placed
455
00:34:42,832 --> 00:34:44,417
in the passive thermal control mode,
456
00:34:44,500 --> 00:34:46,752
will be rotated about its X-axis
457
00:34:46,877 --> 00:34:48,754
at a rate
of about three revolutions per hour
458
00:34:48,879 --> 00:34:52,425
to maintain proper temperature balance
within the spacecraft.
459
00:34:52,550 --> 00:34:54,844
ARMSTRONG: And Houston,
you might be interested
460
00:34:54,969 --> 00:34:56,887
that out my left-hand window right now,
461
00:34:57,013 --> 00:35:00,725
I can observe the entire continent
of North America,
462
00:35:00,850 --> 00:35:04,979
down to the Yucatan Peninsula, Cuba,
and then I run out of window.
463
00:35:05,938 --> 00:35:08,482
COLLINS: I didn't know what I was
looking at, but I sure did like it.
464
00:35:08,608 --> 00:35:09,442
CAPCOM: OK.
465
00:35:10,776 --> 00:35:12,903
ALDRIN: I didn't have much
outside my window.
466
00:35:13,029 --> 00:35:15,406
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston.
We'd like a crew status report.
467
00:35:15,531 --> 00:35:17,158
We're about to tell you goodnight,
over.
468
00:35:20,161 --> 00:35:21,704
ALDRIN: Status report is as follows.
469
00:35:21,829 --> 00:35:25,708

CMP 10002.
471
00:35:29,086 --> 00:35:32,798
LMP 09003.
472
00:35:32,923 --> 00:35:34,800
Negative medications,
473
00:35:34,925 --> 00:35:36,469
fit as a fiddle, over.
474
00:35:37,678 --> 00:35:41,349
CAPCOM: Copy 11, thank you much.
You're cleared for some Zees, over.
475
00:35:42,433 --> 00:35:44,852
COLLINS:
OK, maybe we'll get around to lunch.
476
00:35:48,898 --> 00:35:50,691
ALDRIN: Morning, Houston, Apollo 11.
477
00:35:50,816 --> 00:35:52,902
CAPCOM: Roger, Apollo 11. Good morning.
478
00:35:53,027 --> 00:35:56,614
PA OFFICER: Goldstone reports they're
receiving TV from the spacecraft.
479
00:35:56,906 --> 00:35:59,367
ARMSTRONG: Calling in
from about 130,000 miles out.
480
00:35:59,492 --> 00:36:01,702
Hello there, sports fans,
you got a little bit of me
481
00:36:01,827 --> 00:36:04,330
plus Neil's on the center couch
and Buzz is doing the camera work.
482
00:36:04,455 --> 00:36:07,541
Neil's standing on his head again,
he's trying to make me nervous.
483
00:36:07,667 --> 00:36:11,295
CAPCOM: Roger, copy.
We see the DSKY flashing with a 651.
484
00:36:11,379 --> 00:36:12,755
ARMSTRONG: We do have a happy home.
485
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,465
There's plenty of room
for the three of us.
486
00:36:14,590 --> 00:36:19,220
PA OFFICER: Apollo 11 is presently
131,000 nautical miles from Earth.
487
00:36:19,303 --> 00:36:22,348
The spacecraft slowly rotates
to maintain thermal balance.
488
00:36:22,473 --> 00:36:24,809
CAPCOM: It looks like
we got a good PTC going.
489
00:36:24,934 --> 00:36:26,560
It's goodnight from the white team,
over.
490
00:36:26,686 --> 00:36:29,063
COLLINS: OK, see you tomorrow,
thank you for everything.
491
00:36:29,230 --> 00:36:32,024
- CAPCOM: Good morning, Apollo 11.
- ALDRIN: Good morning, Houston.
492
00:36:32,149 --> 00:36:34,902
Yeah, I've got the world in my window
for a change.
493
00:36:35,027 --> 00:36:37,238
CAPCOM: Sounds like
one of these rotating restaurants.
494
00:36:37,363 --> 00:36:39,073
FLIGHT DIRECTOR:
OK, all flight controllers,
495
00:36:39,240 --> 00:36:41,450
let's get handed over pretty quickly
to the white team here.
496
00:36:41,575 --> 00:36:43,369
We're going to be
crawling into the LM shortly.
497
00:36:43,494 --> 00:36:45,079
We're terminating PTC.
498
00:36:45,246 --> 00:36:47,331
NETWORK: FLIGHT NETWORK,
we're receiving live TV.
499
00:36:47,456 --> 00:36:49,500
PA OFFICER:
Interior view of the command module
500
00:36:49,583 --> 00:36:50,835
looking up into the LM hatch area.
501
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:52,294
ALDRIN: It's moved, coming down.
502
00:36:52,420 --> 00:36:54,046
ARMSTRONG:
We're about to open the hatch.
503
00:36:54,171 --> 00:36:56,716
PA OFFICER: Buzz Aldrin
has apparently carried the camera
504
00:36:56,841 --> 00:36:57,758
into the LM with him.
505
00:36:57,883 --> 00:37:00,469
ALDRIN: The vehicle
is surprisingly very clean.
506
00:37:00,594 --> 00:37:03,889
CAPCOM: Just a moment ago, we had
a good shot of your PLSS, Buzz,
507
00:37:04,014 --> 00:37:05,641
and the two helmet stowage bags,
508
00:37:05,766 --> 00:37:08,728
and now behind,
we have the DSKY and the ACA.
509
00:37:08,853 --> 00:37:11,897
ALDRIN: That's about the position
we'll be putting the camera in
510
00:37:12,022 --> 00:37:14,024
after the initial
descent down the ladder.
511
00:37:14,150 --> 00:37:15,735
It'll be taking one frame a second.
512
00:37:15,860 --> 00:37:18,946
- COLLINS: Hello there, Earthlings.
- CAPCOM: Hello there.
513
00:37:19,071 --> 00:37:22,575
ARMSTRONG: Probably the most unusual
position a cameraman's ever had,
514
00:37:22,700 --> 00:37:26,287
hanging by his toes from a tunnel
and taking a picture upside down.
515
00:37:26,412 --> 00:37:28,873
ALDRIN: We're going to go ahead
and take all the loose data
516
00:37:28,998 --> 00:37:31,125
on back into the command module,
Charlie.
517
00:37:31,292 --> 00:37:32,626
CAPCOM: Roger.
518
00:37:32,752 --> 00:37:36,380
ARMSTRONG: And we're going
to turn our TV monitor off now
519
00:37:36,464 --> 00:37:41,761
while we have some other work to do.
Apollo 11, signing off.
520
00:37:41,886 --> 00:37:43,095
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston.
521
00:37:43,262 --> 00:37:46,891
As the sun sinks slowly in the west,
the white team bids you goodnight.
522
00:37:47,016 --> 00:37:48,809
ALDRIN: You earned your pay today,
Charlie.
523
00:37:50,311 --> 00:37:51,729
CAPCOM: Rog, goodnight all.
524
00:38:12,583 --> 00:38:17,004
NEWSCASTER: The government has
succeeded in harnessing the resources
525
00:38:17,129 --> 00:38:21,342
of the government, the scientific
community, the universities...
526
00:38:21,425 --> 00:38:24,512
Now let's take a few minutes to review
what else had been going on
527
00:38:24,637 --> 00:38:27,848
around the world while Apollo 11
has held our attention.
528
00:38:27,973 --> 00:38:31,435
The lull in the ground fighting
in Vietnam is now in its fifth week
529
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,772
with only one incident reported
from the battlefield so far today
530
00:38:34,897 --> 00:38:36,690
and that one described as minor.
531
00:38:36,816 --> 00:38:39,985
Police Chief Dominick Arena
who filed a formal complaint,
532
00:38:40,110 --> 00:38:43,030
charging Senator Edward Kennedy
with leaving the scene of the accident
533
00:38:43,155 --> 00:38:46,992
that took the life of Mary Jo Kopechne,
a passenger in the Senator's car.
534
00:38:47,576 --> 00:38:49,912
Kennedy, who suffered a slight
concussion in the accident,
535
00:38:50,037 --> 00:38:53,582
remains in seclusion near the family
compound at Hyannis Port.
536
00:38:53,666 --> 00:38:56,585
- FOA: FD1 FAO.
- FD1: Go ahead.
537
00:38:56,669 --> 00:38:59,296
FAO: You hear that story about
Ted Kennedy? Did y'all hear about that?
538
00:38:59,463 --> 00:39:00,881
That was the biggest story on the news.
539
00:39:01,006 --> 00:39:03,551
FD1: Yeah, yeah, they'd forgotten
about Apollo for Ted Kennedy.
540
00:39:03,676 --> 00:39:05,636
CAPCOM: GNC,
this is CAPCOM on MOCR 1.
541
00:39:05,761 --> 00:39:06,637
GNC: Go ahead.
542
00:39:06,762 --> 00:39:10,724
Have your people plotted
pressure in that bottle versus time,
543
00:39:10,850 --> 00:39:12,268
so we could take a look at it?
544
00:39:12,393 --> 00:39:15,771
GNC: I don't think they've got it yet,
they're testing work, CAPCOM.
545
00:39:15,896 --> 00:39:18,524
OK, give me a call when that comes up.
we'd like to take a look at it
546
00:39:18,649 --> 00:39:20,067
- on one of the screens.
- GNC: Rog.
547
00:39:20,192 --> 00:39:22,111
ALDRIN: Morning again, Houston.
This is Apollo 11.
548
00:39:22,236 --> 00:39:23,904
CAPCOM: Roger 11, good morning.
549
00:39:23,988 --> 00:39:26,282
Your systems
are looking good from down here.
550
00:39:26,448 --> 00:39:28,242
COLLINS: Looks good up here too, Bruce.
551
00:39:28,742 --> 00:39:32,121
PA OFFICER: Deke Slayton,
Director of Flight Crew Operations
552
00:39:32,246 --> 00:39:34,874
and two members of the backup crew,
Bill Anders, Jim Lovell,
553
00:39:34,999 --> 00:39:38,961
have joined Bruce McCandless
at the CAPCOM console.
554
00:39:39,628 --> 00:39:41,505
Apollo 11, this is Houston, over.
555
00:39:42,590 --> 00:39:44,466
ALDRIN: Roger, go ahead, Houston.
Apollo 11.
556
00:39:44,550 --> 00:39:45,885
11, this is Houston.
557
00:39:46,010 --> 00:39:47,678
If Mike has a mask,
558
00:39:47,803 --> 00:39:50,848
he's lost respiration rates
on the biomed telemetry.
559
00:39:50,973 --> 00:39:54,143
ALDRIN: Well, he was shaving
a little bit ago. He might have...
560
00:39:54,268 --> 00:39:57,938
CAPCOM: OK, Mike, we had a request
that you check the two electrodes
561
00:39:58,063 --> 00:40:02,276
that are placed one on each side
of your lower ribcage, over.
562
00:40:02,443 --> 00:40:05,112
COLLINS: All those wires and things
look normal up here.
563
00:40:05,237 --> 00:40:08,240
CAPCOM: Roger, Mike, we can see
variations on our trace
564
00:40:08,365 --> 00:40:09,825
as you connected and disconnected,
565
00:40:09,950 --> 00:40:12,786
but the medics
still don't have a signal.
566
00:40:12,870 --> 00:40:16,040
COLLINS: I promise to let you know
if I stop breathing.
567
00:40:21,211 --> 00:40:23,464
PA OFFICER: Coming up
in less than ten seconds now,
568
00:40:23,589 --> 00:40:27,217
we'll be crossing into
the sphere of influence of the moon
569
00:40:27,343 --> 00:40:31,263
at this point as the moon's
gravitational force
570
00:40:31,388 --> 00:40:36,727
becomes the dominant effect
on the spacecraft trajectory
571
00:40:36,852 --> 00:40:40,606
and our displays will shift from Earth
reference to moon reference.
572
00:40:41,899 --> 00:40:48,113
The spacecraft was at a distance of
186,437 nautical miles from Earth
573
00:40:49,114 --> 00:40:53,285
and 33,822 nautical miles
from the moon.
574
00:40:54,536 --> 00:40:57,289
All spacecraft systems
are functioning normally.
575
00:40:57,414 --> 00:40:59,333
The mission going very smoothly.
576
00:41:02,586 --> 00:41:05,547
ARMSTRONG: View of the moon that
we've been having's really spectacular.
577
00:41:05,631 --> 00:41:09,593
The sun right behind
the edge of the moon now.
578
00:41:09,718 --> 00:41:10,928
The solar corona.
579
00:41:12,137 --> 00:41:15,307
ALDRIN: The sky is lit all the way
around the moon, quite an eerie sight.
580
00:41:15,432 --> 00:41:22,022
There's a very marked three-dimensional
aspect of having the sun's corona
581
00:41:22,147 --> 00:41:24,608
coming from behind the moon
the way it is.
582
00:41:25,067 --> 00:41:27,277
ARMSTRONG: It's a view
worth the price of the trip.
583
00:41:31,782 --> 00:41:36,996
PA OFFICER: Mother Earth
is 206,059 nautical miles behind.
584
00:41:37,121 --> 00:41:39,915
Coming up on
the lunar orbit insertion burn
585
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:45,921
in which the spacecraft will start
its initial orbit around the moon.
586
00:41:46,046 --> 00:41:49,633
That maneuver will slow the spacecraft
down considerably
587
00:41:49,717 --> 00:41:51,051
from its present velocity.
588
00:41:51,176 --> 00:41:55,055
It should come from behind the east face
of the moon 33 minutes later.
589
00:42:01,228 --> 00:42:04,106
ARMSTRONG: Yeah, the moon is there,
boy, in all its splendor.
590
00:42:06,984 --> 00:42:09,153
COLLINS: Hello, moon,
how's your old backside?
591
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,783
CAPCOM: All your systems are looking
good going around the corner.
592
00:42:14,908 --> 00:42:16,744
We'll see you on the other side, over.
593
00:42:18,162 --> 00:42:22,249
PA OFFICER: The loss of signal
as Apollo 11 goes behind the moon.
594
00:42:23,167 --> 00:42:25,085
- COLLINS: Servo power one to AC1.
- ALDRIN: Two to AC two.
595
00:42:25,210 --> 00:42:26,211
ARMSTRONG: Two to AC2.
596
00:42:26,336 --> 00:42:28,213
ALDRIN: Translational control power on.
597
00:42:28,338 --> 00:42:30,799
COLLINS:
Translational control power is on.
598
00:42:30,924 --> 00:42:32,468
ALDRIN:
Hand controller number two armed.
599
00:42:32,634 --> 00:42:34,845
COLLINS: Hand controller number two
is armed. 99.
600
00:42:38,098 --> 00:42:39,475
99.
601
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:40,809
ARMSTRONG: Proceed.
602
00:42:41,477 --> 00:42:43,062
COLLINS: Got B mode.
603
00:42:43,187 --> 00:42:44,813
ARMSTRONG: Burning, we're looking good.
604
00:42:44,938 --> 00:42:47,900
COLLINS: Here comes B-B,
I mean, thrust A. Mark.
605
00:42:48,025 --> 00:42:49,193
- ALDRIN: Got them.
- COLLINS: Both?
606
00:42:49,276 --> 00:42:51,153
ARMSTRONG:
Now what's your chamber pressure?
607
00:42:51,236 --> 00:42:53,614
COLLINS: It's good. It's 95.
608
00:42:53,739 --> 00:42:55,908
ALDRIN: PUGS is oscillating around.
609
00:42:58,077 --> 00:42:59,328
ARMSTRONG: OK, we're steering.
610
00:43:07,669 --> 00:43:11,048
ALDRIN: 95 seconds in,
it says go decrease... and hold on.
611
00:43:12,716 --> 00:43:15,636
COLLINS: Nine, eight, seven, six,
five, four, three...
612
00:43:15,761 --> 00:43:17,304
ARMSTRONG: Shut down.
613
00:43:17,429 --> 00:43:20,224
ALDRIN: Ball valves closed.
Barber Pole.
614
00:43:20,349 --> 00:43:21,892
ARMSTRONG: That was a beautiful burn.
615
00:43:22,017 --> 00:43:26,730
COLLINS: Goddamn, I guess. 170 by 60.
Like gangbusters! Whoo!
616
00:43:32,111 --> 00:43:34,738
PA OFFICER:
30 seconds from acquisition time.
617
00:43:36,490 --> 00:43:39,326
COLLINS: Well, I have to vote
with the ten crew, that thing is brown.
618
00:43:39,451 --> 00:43:40,994
ALDRIN: Yep. Sure is.
619
00:43:41,370 --> 00:43:44,540
ARMSTRONG: Looks tan to me, but when
I first saw it at that other sun angle,
620
00:43:44,706 --> 00:43:46,583
it really looked gray.
621
00:43:46,750 --> 00:43:49,044
ALDRIN: More sun angle you get...
622
00:43:49,169 --> 00:43:51,130
COLLINS: More brown
with increasing sun angle.
623
00:43:51,255 --> 00:43:52,840
ALDRIN: God, that's a big beauty.
624
00:43:52,965 --> 00:43:55,467
Gigantic crater, look at the mountains
going around it.
625
00:43:55,592 --> 00:43:56,885
My gosh, they're monsters.
626
00:43:57,010 --> 00:43:59,096
That is a big mother over here, too.
627
00:43:59,221 --> 00:44:01,515
ARMSTRONG: Whoo!
Get another picture of that big fella.
628
00:44:03,016 --> 00:44:06,520
ALDRIN: Look at those craters in a row.
You see them going right out there?
629
00:44:07,104 --> 00:44:08,730
There it is, it's coming up!
630
00:44:08,856 --> 00:44:10,858
- COLLINS: What?
- ALDRIN: The Earth. See it?
631
00:44:10,983 --> 00:44:14,111
Just beautiful! Right over the LM.
632
00:44:15,112 --> 00:44:17,364
Boy, does that ever
look beautiful in the sextant.
633
00:44:18,157 --> 00:44:21,910
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Apollo 11,
this is Houston, do you read?
634
00:44:22,035 --> 00:44:23,370
ALDRIN: Yeah, we sure do, Houston.
635
00:44:23,495 --> 00:44:26,582
LOI 1 burn just nominal as all get out
and everything looking good.
636
00:44:28,167 --> 00:44:29,293
It was like perfect.
637
00:44:29,418 --> 00:44:36,175
ARMSTRONG: Delta-Tig zero,
burn time 5:57... 60.9 by 169.9.
638
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,011
PA OFFICER: That burn report
was by Neil Armstrong.
639
00:44:39,136 --> 00:44:40,387
CAPCOM: Roger, we copy you.
640
00:44:40,512 --> 00:44:42,723
The spacecraft is looking good to us
on telemetry.
641
00:44:42,848 --> 00:44:45,434
PA OFFICER:
Apollo 11 on its first lunar revolution.
642
00:44:45,559 --> 00:44:47,102
ALDRIN:
You got a good view there, Neil?
643
00:44:47,227 --> 00:44:48,270
ARMSTRONG: Yeah, I sure do.
644
00:44:48,395 --> 00:44:49,855
COLLINS: It's beautiful out there.
645
00:44:49,980 --> 00:44:53,108
ARMSTRONG: TPI approach. This is really
something. You ought to look at this.
646
00:44:53,233 --> 00:44:55,235
You want to watch our approach
into the landing site,
647
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,614
you want to watch it right through
this window. We're coming over.
648
00:44:58,780 --> 00:45:02,451
We just passed Mount Marilyn, we're
coming up on the Maskelyne series here,
649
00:45:02,576 --> 00:45:04,119
straight out ahead.
650
00:45:04,203 --> 00:45:08,832
PA OFFICER: 80 hours, 48 minutes now
into the flight of Apollo 11.
651
00:45:08,957 --> 00:45:11,126
Astronaut Charles Duke
has arrived on the scene.
652
00:45:11,251 --> 00:45:12,586
- DUKE: Hey, Dave?
- REED: Yeah.
653
00:45:12,753 --> 00:45:14,838
What put us four minutes ahead?
654
00:45:14,922 --> 00:45:16,924
REED: We arrived at the moon
four minutes early.
655
00:45:17,049 --> 00:45:18,508
Speaks well for the BOOSTER.
656
00:45:19,051 --> 00:45:20,344
Well, no sh...
657
00:45:22,221 --> 00:45:26,350
CAPCOM: 11, that really winds things up
as far as we're concerned on the ground
658
00:45:26,475 --> 00:45:30,312
for the evening. We're ready to go
to bed and get a little sleep, over.
659
00:45:30,437 --> 00:45:32,314
ALDRIN: Yeah, we're about to join you.
660
00:45:38,695 --> 00:45:41,823
CRONKITE: This is of course
the great day for mankind
661
00:45:41,949 --> 00:45:45,827
when we leave our planet Earth
and set foot on the moon.
662
00:45:45,953 --> 00:45:49,289
So on this historic day,
Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin
663
00:45:49,414 --> 00:45:52,459
are in their Lunar Module,
in their spacesuits.
664
00:45:52,584 --> 00:45:56,129
On this next pass,
they are preparing to undock.
665
00:45:57,923 --> 00:46:00,133
PA OFFICER: Both spacecraft
looking very good at this time.
666
00:46:00,259 --> 00:46:04,137
The following revolution,
revolution 13, Armstrong and Aldrin,
667
00:46:04,263 --> 00:46:07,849
they will undock
from the Command and Service Module.
668
00:46:07,975 --> 00:46:11,520
From which point the powered descent
to the lunar surface will be initiated.
669
00:46:12,562 --> 00:46:15,524
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston,
we are go for undocking, over.
670
00:46:16,817 --> 00:46:18,235
ALDRIN: Roger, understand.
671
00:46:21,738 --> 00:46:23,573
ARMSTRONG:
We're all set when you are, Mike.
672
00:46:25,575 --> 00:46:27,452

673
00:46:27,577 --> 00:46:29,204
ARMSTRONG: See you.
674
00:46:32,624 --> 00:46:33,834
ALDRIN: Looks like a good sep.
675
00:46:37,879 --> 00:46:39,339
ARMSTRONG: Roger. Eagle's undocked.
676
00:46:40,924 --> 00:46:42,592
ALDRIN: The Eagle has wings.
677
00:46:42,718 --> 00:46:44,011
ARMSTRONG: It's looking good.
678
00:46:44,845 --> 00:46:45,971
COLLINS: Thrusting.
679
00:46:47,806 --> 00:46:50,142
OK, Eagle. One minute till Tig.
You guys take care.
680
00:46:51,476 --> 00:46:52,644

00:48:02,130 --> 00:48:06,009
ARMSTRONG: OK, we went by
the three-minute point early.
706
00:48:06,593 --> 00:48:08,345
We're long.
707
00:48:08,470 --> 00:48:11,348

long, rolling over.
714
00:48:29,449 --> 00:48:31,868

00:49:06,403 --> 00:49:08,447
Program alarm.
737
00:49:10,991 --> 00:49:12,742
It's a 1202.
738
00:49:12,868 --> 00:49:13,702
ALDRIN: 1202.
739

ARMSTRONG: Houston...
794
00:51:49,899 --> 00:51:52,611
Tranquility Base here.

00:51:56,906 --> 00:51:58,366
We copy you on the ground.
797
00:51:58,491 --> 00:52:00,243
You got a bunch of guys
about to turn blue.
798
00:52:00,368 --> 00:52:02,037
We're breathing again. Thanks a lot.
799
00:52:03,955 --> 00:52:07,208
ARMSTRONG: Thank you.
Very smooth touchdown.
800
00:52:59,928 --> 00:53:03,765
ARMSTRONG: Houston, that may have
seemed like a very long final phase.
801
00:53:03,890 --> 00:53:08,603
The auto targeting was taking us right
into a football field-sized crater,
802
00:53:08,728 --> 00:53:12,023
and it required us
flying manually over the rock field
803
00:53:12,148 --> 00:53:14,150
to find a reasonably good area.
804
00:53:14,734 --> 00:53:17,112
CAPCOM: Roger, we copy.
It was beautiful from here.
805
00:53:17,278 --> 00:53:19,864
Be advised there are
lots of smiling faces in this room
806
00:53:19,989 --> 00:53:21,491

807
00:53:24,994 --> 00:53:27,497
PA OFFICER: We have some heart rates
for Neil Armstrong
808
00:53:27,580 --> 00:53:30,458
during that powered descent
to the lunar surface.
809
00:53:30,542 --> 00:53:34,504
At the time the burn was initiated,
Armstrong's heart rate was 110.
810
00:53:34,629 --> 00:53:38,925
At touchdown on the lunar surface,
he had a heart rate of 156
811
00:53:39,050 --> 00:53:41,803
and the heart rate is now in the 90s,
812
00:53:41,928 --> 00:53:44,764
and we do not have biomedical data
on Buzz Aldrin.
813
00:53:46,516 --> 00:53:48,184
ARMSTRONG: The hatch is coming open.
814
00:53:49,185 --> 00:53:50,770
PA OFFICER: Hatch reported coming open
815
00:53:50,895 --> 00:53:54,441

five seconds.
816
00:53:54,566 --> 00:53:56,317
ARMSTRONG:
OK, Houston. I'm on the porch.
817
00:53:57,902 --> 00:53:59,195
CAPCOM: Roger, Neil.
818
00:54:01,072 --> 00:54:03,450
ALDRIN: OK, everything's
nice and straight in here.
819
00:54:03,575 --> 00:54:06,077
ARMSTRONG: OK, can you pull the door
open a little more?
820
00:54:06,202 --> 00:54:07,620
ALDRIN: All right.
821
00:54:10,415 --> 00:54:13,168
ARMSTRONG:
Houston, this is Neil, radio check.
822
00:54:13,334 --> 00:54:15,462
CAPCOM: Neil, this is Houston,
loud and clear.
823
00:54:15,545 --> 00:54:17,672
Break, break. Buzz this is Houston,
824
00:54:17,797 --> 00:54:20,383
radio check
and verify TV circuit breaker in.
825
00:54:22,302 --> 00:54:26,264
ALDRIN: Roger, TV circuit breaker's in.
And read you loud and clear.
826
00:54:27,223 --> 00:54:28,224
CAPCOM: Roger.
827
00:54:38,443 --> 00:54:40,361
And we're getting a picture on the TV.
828
00:54:41,362 --> 00:54:42,864
ALDRIN: I hope you got a good picture.
829
00:54:42,947 --> 00:54:45,617
CAPCOM: There's a great deal
of contrast in it
830
00:54:45,742 --> 00:54:48,369
and currently it's upside down
on our monitor,
831
00:54:48,495 --> 00:54:50,789
but we can make out
a fair amount of detail.
832
00:54:54,876 --> 00:54:56,002
ALDRIN: OK.
833
00:54:56,836 --> 00:54:59,339
ARMSTRONG:
I'm at the foot of the ladder.
834
00:54:59,464 --> 00:55:01,424
The LM footpads are only...
835
00:55:03,718 --> 00:55:07,514
depressed in the surface
about one or two inches,
836
00:55:07,639 --> 00:55:14,771
although the surface appears
to be very, very fine grained
837
00:55:14,896 --> 00:55:17,440
as you get close to it,
it's almost like a powder.
838
00:55:18,525 --> 00:55:20,777
Ground mass is very fine.
839
00:55:32,789 --> 00:55:34,541
I'm going to step off the LM now.
840
00:55:43,967 --> 00:55:46,302
That's one small step for man,
841
00:55:48,930 --> 00:55:51,641
one giant leap for mankind.
842
00:55:58,690 --> 00:56:02,443
I only go in
a small fraction of an inch,
843
00:56:02,569 --> 00:56:03,987
maybe an eighth of an inch,
844
00:56:04,070 --> 00:56:10,577
but I can see the footprints of my boots
and the treads
845
00:56:10,702 --> 00:56:13,705
in the fine, sandy particles.
846
00:56:16,958 --> 00:56:19,043
CAPCOM: Neil, this is Houston.
We're copying.
847
00:56:19,627 --> 00:56:21,671
ARMSTRONG:
There seems to be no difficulty
848
00:56:21,796 --> 00:56:24,507
in moving around as we suspected.
849
00:56:25,967 --> 00:56:29,053
It's even perhaps easier
than the simulations
850
00:56:29,178 --> 00:56:31,556
of 1/6th G that we performed
851
00:56:31,681 --> 00:56:35,643
in various simulations on the ground.
852
00:56:36,853 --> 00:56:40,315
The descent engine
did not leave a crater of any size.
853
00:56:40,481 --> 00:56:44,068
It has about a one-foot clearance
on the ground.
854
00:56:44,152 --> 00:56:48,907
I can see some evidence of rays
emanating from the descent engine,
855
00:56:48,990 --> 00:56:51,492
but a very insignificant amount.
856
00:56:53,661 --> 00:56:56,623
CAPCOM: Roger, Neil.
We're reading you loud and clear.
857
00:56:56,748 --> 00:57:00,293
We see you getting some pictures
and the contingency sample.
858
00:57:03,087 --> 00:57:05,131
ARMSTRONG:
Interesting. It's a very soft surface,
859
00:57:05,256 --> 00:57:09,177
but here and there where I plug
with the contingency sample collector,
860
00:57:09,302 --> 00:57:11,304
I run into very hard surface
861
00:57:11,429 --> 00:57:16,476
but it appears to be very cohesive
material of the same sort.
862
00:57:18,519 --> 00:57:20,021
I'll try to get a rock in here.
863
00:57:22,857 --> 00:57:24,776
CAPCOM: That looks beautiful from here,
Neil.
864
00:57:24,901 --> 00:57:27,236
ARMSTRONG: It has a stark beauty
all of its own.
865
00:57:27,362 --> 00:57:31,240
It's like much of the high desert
of the United States.
866
00:57:31,366 --> 00:57:34,243
It's different,
but it's very pretty out here.
867
00:57:36,162 --> 00:57:38,790
- That in the pocket?
- ALDRIN: Ah, yeah. Push down.
868
00:57:39,874 --> 00:57:41,209
Got it?
869
00:57:42,251 --> 00:57:43,920
No, it's not all the way in. Push it.
870
00:57:47,340 --> 00:57:49,050
There you go.
871
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:56,015
ARMSTRONG: Contingency sample
is in the pocket.
872
00:57:56,140 --> 00:58:00,436
My oxygen is 81%.
873
00:58:00,603 --> 00:58:04,023
I have no flags
and I'm in minimum flow.
874
00:58:04,148 --> 00:58:06,943
ALDRIN: OK. I got the camera going
at one frame a second.
875
00:58:07,068 --> 00:58:08,277
Ready for me to come out?
876
00:58:08,403 --> 00:58:11,823
ARMSTRONG: Just stand by a second,
I'll move this over the handrail.
877
00:58:11,948 --> 00:58:13,449
ALDRIN: How far are my feet from the...
878
00:58:13,616 --> 00:58:15,827
ARMSTRONG: OK,
you're right at the edge of the porch.
879
00:58:15,952 --> 00:58:20,206
ALDRIN: OK, now I want to back up
and partially close the hatch,
880
00:58:20,331 --> 00:58:22,917
making sure not to lock it
on my way out.
881
00:58:23,042 --> 00:58:25,837
Particularly good thought.
882
00:58:26,629 --> 00:58:28,673
ALDRIN: That's our home
for the next couple of hours,
883
00:58:28,798 --> 00:58:30,174
and we want to take good care of it.
884
00:58:30,299 --> 00:58:33,052
ARMSTRONG: You're on... You've got
three more steps and then a long one.
885
00:58:41,102 --> 00:58:42,145
ALDRIN: Beautiful view.
886
00:58:42,270 --> 00:58:45,398
ARMSTRONG: Isn't that something?
Magnificent sight out here.
887
00:58:45,565 --> 00:58:47,400
ALDRIN: Magnificent desolation.
888
00:58:48,651 --> 00:58:51,195
ARMSTRONG: OK, Houston.
I'm going to change lenses on you.
889
00:58:52,739 --> 00:58:53,906
CAPCOM: Roger, Neil.
890
00:58:54,657 --> 00:58:58,494
We're getting a new picture. You can
tell it's a longer focal length lens.
891
00:58:58,661 --> 00:59:01,122
ARMSTRONG: For those
who haven't read the plaque,
892
00:59:01,247 --> 00:59:05,501
we'll read the plaque that's on
the front landing gear of this LM.
893
00:59:05,668 --> 00:59:13,301
"Here men from the planet Earth first
set foot upon the moon. July 1969 A.D.
894
00:59:13,426 --> 00:59:15,762
We came in peace for all mankind."
895
00:59:15,887 --> 00:59:19,515
PA OFFICER: Neil Armstrong getting ready
to move the TV camera now
896
00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:21,768
out to its panorama position.
897
00:59:23,269 --> 00:59:24,979
ARMSTRONG: I got plenty of cable.
898
00:59:25,104 --> 00:59:26,731
ALDRIN: You got plenty. Plenty more.
899
00:59:34,155 --> 00:59:35,990
CAPCOM: OK, it looks good there, Neil.
900
00:59:36,991 --> 00:59:38,034
ARMSTRONG: OK.
901
00:59:38,493 --> 00:59:40,620
PA OFFICER:
One hour seven minutes' time expended.
902
00:59:41,370 --> 00:59:44,165
Buzz is erecting
the solar wind experiment now.
903
00:59:44,290 --> 00:59:49,087
ALDRIN: Some of these small depressions
through the upper surface of the soil
904
00:59:49,212 --> 00:59:51,255
and about five or six inches of bay.
905
00:59:51,380 --> 00:59:56,844
It breaks loose and moves as if it
were caked on the surface
906
00:59:56,969 --> 00:59:58,846
when in fact it really isn't.
907
00:59:58,971 --> 01:00:01,265
COLLINS: Houston,
Columbia on high gain, over.
908
01:00:01,891 --> 01:00:04,894
CAPCOM: Columbia, this is Houston
reading you loud and clear, over.
909
01:00:05,019 --> 01:00:08,147
COLLINS: Yeah, reading you loud
and clear. How's it going?
910
01:00:08,272 --> 01:00:10,566
CAPCOM: Roger, the EVA
is progressing beautifully.
911
01:00:10,733 --> 01:00:12,652
They're setting up the flag now.
912
01:00:12,777 --> 01:00:14,070
COLLINS: Great.
913
01:00:14,195 --> 01:00:16,197
CAPCOM: I guess
you're about the only person around
914
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:18,783
that doesn't have TV coverage
of the scene.
915
01:00:18,908 --> 01:00:20,910
COLLINS: How is the quality of the TV?
916
01:00:21,035 --> 01:00:22,787
CAPCOM: It's beautiful, Mike.
It really is.
917
01:00:22,912 --> 01:00:24,038
They've got the flag up now
918
01:00:24,122 --> 01:00:26,958
and you can see the stars and stripes
on the lunar surface.
919
01:00:29,919 --> 01:00:31,587
COLLINS: Beautiful, just beautiful.
920
01:00:34,423 --> 01:00:39,804
CAPCOM: Neil and Buzz. The President of
the United States is in his office now
921
01:00:39,929 --> 01:00:42,306
and would like to say a few words
to you, over.
922
01:00:43,850 --> 01:00:45,560
ARMSTRONG: That would be an honor.
923
01:00:45,726 --> 01:00:47,979
CAPCOM: Go ahead, Mr. President.
This is Houston, out.
924
01:00:49,897 --> 01:00:53,192
NIXON: Hello, Neil and Buzz.
I'm talking to you by telephone
925
01:00:53,317 --> 01:00:55,278
from the Oval Room at the White House.
926
01:00:55,361 --> 01:01:00,158
And this certainly has to be the
most historic telephone call ever made
927
01:01:00,241 --> 01:01:04,162
from the White House. I just can't
tell you how proud we all are
928
01:01:04,287 --> 01:01:05,413
of what you have done.
929
01:01:05,538 --> 01:01:09,208
For every American this has to be
the proudest day of our lives,
930
01:01:09,333 --> 01:01:12,879
and for people all over the world.
Because of what you have done,
931
01:01:13,004 --> 01:01:17,383
the heavens have
become a part of man's world.
932
01:01:17,508 --> 01:01:21,053
And as you talk to us
from the Sea of Tranquility,
933
01:01:21,179 --> 01:01:23,973
it inspires us to redouble our efforts
934
01:01:24,098 --> 01:01:27,518
to bring peace and tranquility
to Earth.
935
01:01:27,602 --> 01:01:31,314
For one priceless moment,
in the whole history of man,
936
01:01:31,439 --> 01:01:35,026
all the people on this Earth
are truly one.
937
01:01:35,151 --> 01:01:37,153
One in their pride
in what you have done,
938
01:01:37,278 --> 01:01:41,782
and one in our prayers
that you will return safely to Earth.
939
01:01:42,575 --> 01:01:44,202
ARMSTRONG: Thank you, Mr. President.
940
01:01:44,285 --> 01:01:47,246
It's a great honor and privilege
for us to be here,
941
01:01:47,371 --> 01:01:53,336
representing not only the United States
but men of peace of all nations,
942
01:01:53,461 --> 01:01:57,673
and with interests and curiosity
and with the vision for the future.
943
01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:01,886
It's an honor for us to be able
to participate here today.
944
01:02:07,642 --> 01:02:09,518
PA OFFICER: Neil's been on the surface
an hour now,
945
01:02:09,602 --> 01:02:11,812
Buzz not quite 20 minutes less
than that.
946
01:02:11,938 --> 01:02:15,816
Heart rates on both crewmen
averaging between 90 and 100.
947
01:02:15,942 --> 01:02:19,695
ARMSTRONG: I don't note
any abnormalities in the LM.
948
01:02:19,862 --> 01:02:22,198
Quads seem to be in good shape,
949
01:02:22,323 --> 01:02:24,533
the primary and secondary struts
are in good shape,
950
01:02:24,659 --> 01:02:27,662
antennas are all in place.
951
01:02:27,828 --> 01:02:30,790
There's no evidence
of problems underneath.
952
01:02:30,915 --> 01:02:34,210
PA OFFICER: The SEQ bay
contains the scientific experiments
953
01:02:34,335 --> 01:02:36,003
to be left on the surface of the moon.
954
01:02:36,087 --> 01:02:37,964
ALDRIN: You got us a good area
picked out?
955
01:02:38,047 --> 01:02:39,882
PA OFFICER: Aldrin carrying
the two experiments.
956
01:02:40,007 --> 01:02:43,177
ARMSTRONG: Straight out on that rise
out there is probably as good as any.
957
01:02:43,302 --> 01:02:45,554
ALDRIN: I'm going to have to get
on the other side of this rock.
958
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:51,018
ARMSTRONG: Yeah. The laser reflector
is installed, and the bubble's level
959
01:02:51,143 --> 01:02:54,689
and the alignment appears to be good.
960
01:02:54,855 --> 01:02:57,650
PA OFFICER: They've been on their life
support systems two hours, 25 minutes.
961
01:02:57,817 --> 01:03:02,280
ALDRIN: Houston, I have the seismic
experiment flipped over now
962
01:03:02,405 --> 01:03:04,949
and I'm aligning it with the sun
963
01:03:05,074 --> 01:03:08,953
and all parts of the solar array
are clear of the ground now.
964
01:03:09,078 --> 01:03:11,580
PA OFFICER: Buzz Aldrin
is collecting a core tube sample.
965
01:03:11,706 --> 01:03:13,708
ALDRIN: It almost looks wet.
966
01:03:13,874 --> 01:03:15,084
ARMSTRONG: Got it! Sampled.
967
01:03:16,127 --> 01:03:17,920
CAPCOM: Neil, this is Houston.
968
01:03:18,004 --> 01:03:20,965
After you've got
the core tubes and the solar wind,
969
01:03:21,048 --> 01:03:25,469
anything else that you can
throw into the box would be acceptable.
970
01:03:25,928 --> 01:03:30,474
ARMSTRONG: Houston, we've got about
I'd say 20 pounds of carefully selected,
971
01:03:30,599 --> 01:03:32,310
if not documented, samples.
972
01:03:33,185 --> 01:03:35,104
CAPCOM: Houston. Roger, well done, out.
973
01:03:41,277 --> 01:03:43,612
ALDRIN: Anything more
before I head on up, Bruce?
974
01:03:43,738 --> 01:03:45,990
CAPCOM: Negative, head on up the ladder,
Buzz.
975
01:03:46,115 --> 01:03:47,658
ALDRIN: Adios, amigos.
976
01:03:47,783 --> 01:03:48,617
ARMSTRONG: OK.
977
01:03:48,743 --> 01:03:52,079
PA OFFICER: Transferring the sample
containers into the LM cabin now.
978
01:03:52,204 --> 01:03:56,334
Unofficial time off the surface
at 111:37:32.
979
01:03:56,459 --> 01:04:00,588
ALDRIN: OK, the hatch is closed
and latched and verified secure.
980
01:04:01,255 --> 01:04:02,089
ARMSTRONG: OK.
981
01:04:03,341 --> 01:04:08,554
CAPCOM: And we'd like to say
from all of us down here in Houston
982
01:04:08,679 --> 01:04:13,684
and really from all of us in
all the countries in the entire world,
983
01:04:13,768 --> 01:04:17,104
we think that you've done
a magnificent job up there today, over.
984
01:04:18,898 --> 01:04:20,608
ARMSTRONG: Thank you very much.
985
01:04:20,733 --> 01:04:22,360
ALDRIN: It's been a long day.
986
01:04:23,027 --> 01:04:26,697
CAPCOM: Yes, indeed. Get some rest there
and have at it tomorrow.
987
01:04:36,665 --> 01:04:39,085
PA OFFICER: Not since Adam
has any human known
988
01:04:39,168 --> 01:04:42,546
such solitude as Mike Collins
is experiencing
989
01:04:42,671 --> 01:04:46,967
during the 47 minutes of each lunar
revolution when he's behind the moon,
990
01:04:47,093 --> 01:04:51,514
while he waits for his comrades to soar
with Eagle from Tranquility Base,
991
01:04:51,639 --> 01:04:53,849
and rejoin him
for the trip back to Earth.
992
01:04:54,016 --> 01:04:55,810
Collins, with the help
of flight controllers
993
01:04:55,935 --> 01:04:57,603
here in Mission Control Center,
994
01:04:57,728 --> 01:05:01,524
has kept the Command Module systems
going pocketa, pocketa, pocketa.
995
01:05:02,858 --> 01:05:05,986
CAPCOM: Columbia, Columbia,
good morning from Houston.
996
01:05:06,695 --> 01:05:09,490
COLLINS: How's the black team today?
All primed and rarin' to go?
997
01:05:10,449 --> 01:05:12,410
CAPCOM: You betcha there, Mike.
998
01:05:12,493 --> 01:05:16,330
Going to keep you a little busy here.
Soon as we get the state vector in,
999
01:05:16,414 --> 01:05:20,668
we'd like you to go ahead
and do a P52, option three.
1000
01:05:20,793 --> 01:05:23,671
And then when you come on
around the other side there,
1001
01:05:23,796 --> 01:05:28,801
we'll give you some landmark
tracking information on the 130.
1002
01:05:29,301 --> 01:05:31,178
COLLINS: All right, fine, understand.
Thank you.
1003
01:05:32,304 --> 01:05:35,349
CAPCOM: Tranquility Base, Houston.
How was the resting standing up there?
1004
01:05:35,474 --> 01:05:38,018
Did you get a chance to curl up
on the engine can?
1005
01:05:38,602 --> 01:05:43,315
ALDRIN: Roger. Neil has rigged himself a
really good hammock with a waist tether
1006
01:05:43,441 --> 01:05:46,068
and he's been
lying on the ascent engine cover
1007
01:05:46,193 --> 01:05:47,987
and I curled up on the floor, over.
1008
01:05:48,112 --> 01:05:49,655
CAPCOM: Roger. Copy, Buzz.
1009
01:05:49,780 --> 01:05:52,491
PA OFFICER: Our science support room
here in Mission Control Center
1010
01:05:52,575 --> 01:05:54,452
reports receiving continuous data
1011
01:05:54,577 --> 01:05:58,038
from the passive seismic experiment
placed on the lunar surface
1012
01:05:58,164 --> 01:06:00,040
last night by the Apollo 11 crew.
1013
01:06:00,166 --> 01:06:02,877
Recorded the astronauts' footsteps
on the moon
1014
01:06:03,043 --> 01:06:06,755
and will probably receive its strongest
signal when the ascent engine ignites
1015
01:06:06,881 --> 01:06:12,219
and starts Eagle on its way into lunar
orbit and rendezvous with Columbia.
1016
01:06:12,344 --> 01:06:15,264
- CAPCOM: Tranquility Base, Houston.
- ARMSTRONG: Go ahead.
1017
01:06:15,389 --> 01:06:18,142
CAPCOM: Roger. Just a reminder here,
we want to make sure
1018
01:06:18,267 --> 01:06:21,520
you leave the rendezvous radar
circuit breakers pulled.
1019
01:06:22,396 --> 01:06:23,772
ARMSTRONG: OK.
1020
01:06:23,856 --> 01:06:26,567
JIM LOVELL: Eagle and Columbia,
this is the backup crew.
1021
01:06:26,692 --> 01:06:29,528
Our congratulations
on yesterday's performance
1022
01:06:29,653 --> 01:06:31,780
and our prayers are with you
for the rendezvous, over.
1023
01:06:31,906 --> 01:06:33,282
COLLINS: Thank you, Jim.
1024
01:06:33,407 --> 01:06:34,575
ARMSTRONG: Thank you, Jim.
1025
01:06:39,330 --> 01:06:41,499
PA OFFICER:
Almost 5,000 pounds of propellant
1026
01:06:41,624 --> 01:06:43,584
will be run through the ascent engine
1027
01:06:43,709 --> 01:06:47,588
on the ascent burn which will place
Eagle back into lunar orbit
1028
01:06:47,713 --> 01:06:50,883
and following that,
the rendezvous sequence
1029
01:06:51,050 --> 01:06:55,971
completed with the docking
at 128 hours approximately.
1030
01:06:56,597 --> 01:07:01,519
Flight Operations Director Chris Kraft
commented that some 500 million people
1031
01:07:01,644 --> 01:07:05,523
around the world were helping push
Eagle off the moon and back into orbit.
1032
01:07:06,106 --> 01:07:08,734
Flight Director Glynn Lunney
is polling the various positions
1033
01:07:08,817 --> 01:07:11,737
here in the control room
on their readiness.
1034
01:07:11,862 --> 01:07:13,614
- FD: FIDO, status.
- FIDO: Got it all. Go.
1035
01:07:13,697 --> 01:07:14,573
FD: GUIDANCE.
1036
01:07:14,657 --> 01:07:16,575
GUIDANCE: Waiting for guidance steering
at two minutes.
1037
01:07:16,700 --> 01:07:18,410
- FD: CONTROL.
- CONTROL: We're go, FLIGHT.
1038
01:07:18,494 --> 01:07:19,370
- FD: TELCOM.
- Go, FLIGHT.
1039
01:07:19,495 --> 01:07:20,829
- FD: SURGEON.
- Go, FLIGHT.
1040
01:07:20,955 --> 01:07:22,873
GUIDANCE: We see it, FLIGHT.
Looks good.
1041
01:07:22,998 --> 01:07:24,833
CAPCOM: Tranquility Base, Houston.
1042
01:07:26,001 --> 01:07:27,378
ARMSTRONG: Roger, go ahead.
1043
01:07:27,503 --> 01:07:31,006
CAPCOM: Roger, Eagle's looking real fine
to us down here
1044
01:07:31,173 --> 01:07:32,841
and you're cleared for takeoff.
1045
01:07:32,967 --> 01:07:36,262
ALDRIN: Roger, understand.
We're number one the runway.
1046
01:07:41,976 --> 01:07:44,478
PA OFFICER: GUIDANCE reports
both navigation systems on Eagle
1047
01:07:44,603 --> 01:07:45,896
are looking good.
1048
01:07:50,651 --> 01:07:53,737
ALDRIN: Nine, eight, seven, six,
1049
01:07:53,862 --> 01:07:58,200
five, abort stage, engine arm.
Ascent. Proceed.
1050
01:08:05,207 --> 01:08:06,500
ARMSTRONG: The Eagle has wings.
1051
01:08:06,625 --> 01:08:09,753
ALDRIN: Stand by for pitchover.
Very smooth.
1052
01:08:18,012 --> 01:08:19,888
ARMSTRONG:
We're going right down US 1.
1053
01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:22,474
CAPCOM: Roger.
1054
01:08:23,350 --> 01:08:25,436
ALDRIN: Not very much thruster activity.
1055
01:08:25,561 --> 01:08:27,688
FIDO: FLIGHT, FIDO.
PGNS, MSFN, we're looking good.
1056
01:08:27,813 --> 01:08:30,482
- FD: Roger, mighty fine. GUIDANCE?
- GUIDANCE: Go both systems.
1057
01:08:30,608 --> 01:08:36,071
- 30 seconds, FLIGHT.
- ALDRIN: 700, 150 up. Beautiful.
1058
01:08:36,238 --> 01:08:37,406
- FD: TELCOM.
- TELECOM: Go.
1059
01:08:39,074 --> 01:08:41,493
CAPCOM: Eagle Houston,
you're still looking mighty fine.
1060
01:08:42,286 --> 01:08:46,206
ALDRIN: Roger. Good agreement in Delta-V
to go in both AGS and PGNS.
1061
01:08:46,874 --> 01:08:47,958
CAPCOM: Roger.
1062
01:08:49,168 --> 01:08:52,755
PA OFFICER: All three data sources
are agreeing quite closely here.
1063
01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:56,550
CAPCOM: Eagle, Houston.
Aft Omni, low-bit rate,
1064
01:08:56,675 --> 01:08:59,053
and we'll see you at 127 plus 51.
1065
01:09:17,529 --> 01:09:22,368
PA OFFICER: 127 hours, 39 minutes,
39.2 seconds.
1066
01:09:22,493 --> 01:09:26,372
This is the start time for a series
of velocity match maneuvers
1067
01:09:26,497 --> 01:09:28,957
to bring Eagle in with Columbia.
1068
01:09:45,557 --> 01:09:51,772
ALDRIN: Houston, the AGS has a Delta-H
of 15.5 and a maneuver of 51.3.
1069
01:09:53,524 --> 01:09:54,733
CAPCOM: Roger, we copy.
1070
01:09:56,068 --> 01:10:00,656
PA OFFICER: As the two vehicles come
around on the 26th lunar revolution,
1071
01:10:00,781 --> 01:10:02,866
Mike Collins aboard Columbia
1072
01:10:02,991 --> 01:10:06,912
is spring-loaded to do what is called
a mirror image maneuver.
1073
01:10:29,017 --> 01:10:31,687
ARMSTRONG: OK, we're about
500 feet a second coming in at you.
1074
01:10:49,580 --> 01:10:54,001
COLLINS: Eagle, Columbia. I've got 470
now for R-dot, and I just broke lock.
1075
01:10:54,126 --> 01:10:57,588
Could you hold silence for
a few seconds here while I reacquire?
1076
01:11:20,486 --> 01:11:21,945
Columbia has reacquired you.
1077
01:11:23,989 --> 01:11:27,201
ARMSTRONG: OK, Mike, I'll try to get
in position here and then you got it.
1078
01:11:29,536 --> 01:11:32,122
COLLINS: Eagle, Columbia's starting
to maneuver to TPI attitude.
1079
01:11:32,247 --> 01:11:33,248
ARMSTRONG: OK.
1080
01:11:55,270 --> 01:11:56,563
Looks good, Mike.
1081
01:12:13,163 --> 01:12:14,998
ALDRIN: OK, we're all yours, Columbia.
1082
01:12:16,625 --> 01:12:19,127
PA OFFICER:
Communications are somewhat scratchy
1083
01:12:19,253 --> 01:12:24,174
with Columbia and Eagle now reunited
to become Apollo 11 again.
1084
01:12:24,675 --> 01:12:28,387
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston,
about a minute and a half to LOS.
1085
01:12:28,470 --> 01:12:30,806
You're looking great.
It's been a mighty fine day.
1086
01:12:31,557 --> 01:12:32,891
COLLINS: Boy, you're not kidding.
1087
01:12:33,308 --> 01:12:35,143
PA OFFICER:
Armstrong and Aldrin transferring
1088
01:12:35,227 --> 01:12:37,229
back to the Command Module
with Mike Collins.
1089
01:12:37,813 --> 01:12:39,815
COLLINS: Houston, this is Columbia
reading you loud and clear.
1090
01:12:39,940 --> 01:12:42,484
We're all three back inside,
the hatch is installed,
1091
01:12:42,609 --> 01:12:45,279
we're running a pressure integrity
check. Everything's going well.
1092
01:12:45,445 --> 01:12:48,323
CAPCOM: Roger. How's it feel up there
to have some company?
1093
01:12:48,490 --> 01:12:50,242
COLLINS: Damn good, I'll tell you.
1094
01:12:50,409 --> 01:12:51,201
CAPCOM: I bet.
1095
01:12:51,326 --> 01:12:55,455
I bet you'd almost be talking to
yourself up there after ten revs or so.
1096
01:12:55,581 --> 01:12:57,541
COLLINS: No, no.
It's a happy home up here.
1097
01:12:57,666 --> 01:13:00,335
It'd be nice to have
100 million Americans up here.
1098
01:13:00,502 --> 01:13:03,589
CAPCOM: Rog. They were with you
in spirit anyway, at least that many.
1099
01:13:03,714 --> 01:13:05,507
COLLINS: Thank you, sir.
1100
01:13:05,591 --> 01:13:10,554
CAPCOM: And Apollo 11, Houston,
all your systems look real good to us.
1101
01:13:10,679 --> 01:13:13,515
We would like you to jettison Eagle.
1102
01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:16,685
You're go for power arm
and you're go for a jettison.
1103
01:13:16,810 --> 01:13:17,978
ALDRIN: OK.
1104
01:13:20,981 --> 01:13:22,941
There she goes. She was a good one.
1105
01:13:23,942 --> 01:13:27,362
CAPCOM: Roger dodger.
We got Eagle looking good.
1106
01:13:27,529 --> 01:13:29,364
It's holding cabin pressure
1107
01:13:29,531 --> 01:13:32,326
and it picked up about two feet
per second from that jettison.
1108
01:13:32,910 --> 01:13:35,954
PA OFFICER: The crew jettisoned the LM
at 130 hours, 30 minutes.
1109
01:13:36,079 --> 01:13:38,582
We're now ten seconds away
from trans-Earth Injection.
1110
01:13:39,708 --> 01:13:42,628
They will burn their
service propulsion system engine
1111
01:13:42,711 --> 01:13:47,132
for two minutes, 28 seconds, to start
them on their way back to Earth.
1112
01:13:47,257 --> 01:13:49,760
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston.
One minute to LOS.
1113
01:13:49,885 --> 01:13:51,887
PA OFFICER:
The trans-Earth injection maneuver
1114
01:13:52,054 --> 01:13:54,097
will be performed
on the backside of the moon
1115
01:13:54,222 --> 01:13:56,266
at the beginning
of the 31st revolution.
1116
01:13:56,391 --> 01:13:58,810
We'll reacquire the spacecraft
on the other side of the moon.
1117
01:13:59,895 --> 01:14:01,480
CAPCOM: Hello, Apollo 11. Houston.
1118
01:14:01,605 --> 01:14:04,524
You're looking good
going over the hill. Go sic 'em!
1119
01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:06,860
ALDRIN: Thank you, sir. We'll do it.
1120
01:14:08,862 --> 01:14:12,074
COLLINS: Stand by for ullage. Ullage.
1121
01:14:14,409 --> 01:14:15,577
ALDRIN: Got the ullage.
1122
01:14:27,965 --> 01:14:30,384
COLLINS: Burn! A good one. Nice.
1123
01:14:30,550 --> 01:14:32,552
- ALDRIN: I got two balls.
- COLLINS: Here come the other two.
1124
01:14:32,678 --> 01:14:35,055
ALDRIN: Barber pole, gray,
the other two are on good.
1125
01:14:36,473 --> 01:14:38,433
COLLINS: Man, that feels like G,
doesn't it?
1126
01:14:50,696 --> 01:14:53,865
COLLINS: One minute. Chamber pressure's
holding right on a hundred.
1127
01:15:01,039 --> 01:15:04,167
COLLINS: Gimbals look good.
Total attitude looks good.
1128
01:15:05,127 --> 01:15:08,422
Rates are damped out a little bit.
1129
01:15:16,763 --> 01:15:18,390
COLLINS: Standing by for engine off.
1130
01:15:18,515 --> 01:15:20,350
ARMSTRONG: It should be shut down now.
1131
01:15:21,810 --> 01:15:23,812
- COLLINS: OK.
- ARMSTRONG: Shut down.
1132
01:15:24,896 --> 01:15:25,981
COLLINS: Beautiful.
1133
01:15:26,732 --> 01:15:30,694
ALDRIN: Beautiful burn. SPS, I love you!
You are a jewel!
1134
01:15:32,154 --> 01:15:33,321
CAPCOM: AOS.
1135
01:15:33,447 --> 01:15:35,907
PA OFFICER: And there's the cue.
We have acquisition of signal.
1136
01:15:38,285 --> 01:15:39,411
Hallelujah!
1137
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:42,122
COLLINS: Thank you, Charlie boy.
Looking good here.
1138
01:15:42,247 --> 01:15:44,666
That was a beautiful burn.
They don't come any finer.
1139
01:15:44,791 --> 01:15:45,792
CAPCOM: Roger.
1140
01:15:45,876 --> 01:15:48,045
COLLINS: Tell 'em to open up
the LRL doors, Charlie.
1141
01:15:48,170 --> 01:15:49,880
CAPCOM: Roger, we got you coming home.
1142
01:15:57,137 --> 01:15:59,598
ALDRIN: Let's get some music.
How about these tapes?
1143
01:16:05,771 --> 01:16:09,900

1171

ARMSTRONG:
Hey, this should be getting larger.
1172
01:18:09,227 --> 01:18:13,481
And if it is, it's the place
we're coming home to.
1173
01:18:13,565 --> 01:18:17,277
No matter where you travel,
it's always nice to get home.
1174
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:20,405
CAPCOM: We concur, 11.
We'll be happy to have you back.
1175
01:18:29,414 --> 01:18:34,586
PA OFFICER: Apollo 11 now 94,961
nautical miles from Earth.
1176
01:18:34,753 --> 01:18:40,217
Re-entry is scheduled to begin
18 hours, 18 minutes and 12 seconds.
1177
01:18:40,342 --> 01:18:42,177
COLLINS: How's old FLIGHT, Bruce?
1178
01:18:42,302 --> 01:18:44,262
Did he ever let you
go get a cup of coffee
1179
01:18:44,387 --> 01:18:46,348
while we were over on the backside?
1180
01:18:46,806 --> 01:18:48,975
BRUCE: Things have been going pretty
smoothly down here.
1181
01:18:49,100 --> 01:18:51,144
He's really not that hard
to get along with.
1182
01:18:52,562 --> 01:18:54,064
COLLINS: He must be mellowing.
1183
01:18:54,189 --> 01:18:57,150
BRUCE: Well, we've only got two of them
back here right now.
1184
01:18:57,275 --> 01:19:02,280
The next item scheduled on the flight
plan is a television transmission.
1185
01:19:02,364 --> 01:19:05,909
PA OFFICER: You may be interested
in knowing that Jan and the children,
1186
01:19:06,034 --> 01:19:08,828
and Pat and the youngsters
and Andy Aldrin are down here
1187
01:19:08,954 --> 01:19:10,914
in the viewing room
watching this evening.
1188
01:19:12,832 --> 01:19:14,709
ALDRIN: Oh, we're glad to hear that.
1189
01:19:16,169 --> 01:19:18,964
ARMSTRONG: You have good S-band
signal strength now, Houston?
1190
01:19:19,047 --> 01:19:22,259
CAPCOM: OK, you're coming through loud
and clear now, 11, with your patch.
1191
01:19:23,593 --> 01:19:29,140
ALDRIN: This has been far more
than three men on a voyage to the moon.
1192
01:19:30,517 --> 01:19:33,645
We feel that this stands as a symbol
1193
01:19:33,812 --> 01:19:39,276
of the insatiable curiosity of all
mankind to explore the unknown.
1194
01:19:39,401 --> 01:19:44,155
This operation is somewhat like
the periscope of a submarine.
1195
01:19:44,281 --> 01:19:46,449
All you see is the three of us.
1196
01:19:46,574 --> 01:19:50,328
But beneath the surface are thousands
and thousands of others.
1197
01:19:50,453 --> 01:19:55,250
We'd like to give a special thanks
to all those...
1198
01:19:55,875 --> 01:19:58,336
Americans who built those spacecraft.
1199
01:19:59,379 --> 01:20:01,381
Who did the construction,
1200
01:20:01,506 --> 01:20:03,883
design, the tests,
1201
01:20:03,967 --> 01:20:05,719
and put their...
1202
01:20:06,636 --> 01:20:11,766
their hearts and all their abilities
into those crafts.
1203
01:20:13,601 --> 01:20:17,105
To those people, tonight we give
a special thank you.
1204
01:20:18,481 --> 01:20:24,112
And to all the other people that
are listening and watching tonight,
1205
01:20:24,237 --> 01:20:27,240
God bless you. Goodnight from Apollo 11.
1206
01:20:37,709 --> 01:20:41,755
PA OFFICER: Weather in the recovery
area, the skies will be partly cloudy,
1207
01:20:42,380 --> 01:20:43,882
a six-foot sea,
1208
01:20:44,007 --> 01:20:46,760
temperature near 80 degrees.
1209
01:20:46,926 --> 01:20:51,973
This landing area
is 215 miles to the northeast
1210
01:20:52,098 --> 01:20:54,351
from the original landing area.
1211
01:20:54,476 --> 01:20:57,687
It moved because of thundershowers
in the original area.
1212
01:20:59,481 --> 01:21:03,276
Apollo 11's distance now
is 3,000 nautical miles,
1213
01:21:03,401 --> 01:21:07,572
velocity 26,685 feet per second.
1214
01:21:07,697 --> 01:21:11,493
In the next 20 minutes, Apollo 11
will add almost 10,000 feet per second
1215
01:21:11,618 --> 01:21:16,956
to that figure.
Entry at 75 statute miles.
1216
01:21:17,082 --> 01:21:20,585
Beginning blackout at 62 statute miles.
1217
01:21:20,710 --> 01:21:23,505
And main chute deployment 10,500 feet.
1218
01:21:42,524 --> 01:21:46,444
CAPCOM: And 11, Houston. Weather's still
holding real fine in the recovery area.
1219
01:21:46,569 --> 01:21:48,613
Looks like it's about 1,500 scattered,
1220
01:21:48,738 --> 01:21:51,408
high scattered,
and still three- to six-foot waves.
1221
01:21:52,450 --> 01:21:54,369
COLLINS: The air part of it sounds good.
1222
01:21:54,452 --> 01:21:55,328
CAPCOM: Roger.
1223
01:21:55,412 --> 01:21:57,956
COLLINS: The Earth
is really getting bigger up here
1224
01:21:58,081 --> 01:22:00,250
and of course we see a crescent.
1225
01:22:00,375 --> 01:22:04,254
PA OFFICER: Apollo 11 lined up right
down the middle of the entry corridor.
1226
01:22:04,379 --> 01:22:07,048
We're a minute and 45 seconds
from entry.
1227
01:22:07,132 --> 01:22:11,136
Blackout will begin
18 seconds after entry.
1228
01:22:11,261 --> 01:22:14,222
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston.
You're still looking mighty fine here.
1229
01:22:14,347 --> 01:22:15,849
You're cleared for landing.
1230
01:22:17,267 --> 01:22:19,185
COLLINS: We appreciate that, Ron.
Thank you.
1231
01:22:19,310 --> 01:22:22,689
- ALDRIN: Rog. Gear's down and locked.
- CAPCOM: Roger.
1232
01:22:23,273 --> 01:22:24,983
PA OFFICER:
The guidance officer reports
1233
01:22:25,108 --> 01:22:26,776
the Command Module computer looks good
1234
01:22:26,901 --> 01:22:29,571
and the guidance and navigation system
is go.
1235
01:22:29,654 --> 01:22:32,073
CAPCOM: And 11, Houston. You're going
over the hill there shortly.
1236
01:22:32,198 --> 01:22:33,783
You're looking mighty fine to us.
1237
01:22:34,868 --> 01:22:36,077
ARMSTRONG: See you later.
1238
01:22:42,834 --> 01:22:45,503
- ALDRIN: There's your horizon.
- ARMSTRONG: Got the horizon now.
1239
01:23:34,469 --> 01:23:36,262
PA OFFICER: And beginning of blackout
1240
01:23:36,387 --> 01:23:39,140
approximately 17 seconds
after entry interface
1241
01:23:39,265 --> 01:23:40,892
into the atmosphere.
1242
01:23:40,975 --> 01:23:45,980
400,000 feet or approximately 85 miles
above the Earth.
1243
01:23:52,278 --> 01:23:53,613
At blackout,
1244
01:23:54,781 --> 01:23:59,369
we were showing velocity
of 36,237 feet per second.
1245
01:24:00,078 --> 01:24:04,415
Range to go to splash,
1,510 nautical miles.
1246
01:24:05,917 --> 01:24:07,961
TRACKING STATION: LOS.
1247
01:24:08,127 --> 01:24:10,797
REDSTONE TRACKING STATION:
Redstone LOS. Blackout.
1248
01:24:13,174 --> 01:24:15,260
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston,
through ARIA.
1249
01:24:23,309 --> 01:24:25,270
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston,
through ARIA.
1250
01:24:42,996 --> 01:24:45,039
Apollo 11, Houston, through ARIA 4.
1251
01:25:02,932 --> 01:25:03,808
FLIGHT DIRECTOR: OK, CAPCOM,
1252
01:25:03,933 --> 01:25:06,144
one last call here
then we'll have to give up
1253
01:25:06,269 --> 01:25:08,229
and let the Recovery people have it.
1254
01:25:09,814 --> 01:25:12,275
CAPCOM: Apollo 11, Houston,
through ARIA.
1255
01:25:15,862 --> 01:25:18,740
RECOVERY OFFICER: Apollo 11,
Apollo 11, this is Hornet. Hornet, over.
1256
01:25:18,865 --> 01:25:22,035
COLLINS: This is Apollo 11,
reading you loud and clear.
1257
01:25:22,201 --> 01:25:26,956
Our position, 1330 16915.
1258
01:25:27,081 --> 01:25:28,708
There they are!
1259
01:25:35,548 --> 01:25:37,258
RECOVERY OFFICER:
Condition of crew, over.
1260
01:25:38,384 --> 01:25:44,140
ARMSTRONG: The condition of the crew,
4,000-3,500 feet on the way down.
1261
01:25:44,265 --> 01:25:49,771
Latitude, longitude, 13.
30, 169.15, over.
1262
01:25:49,937 --> 01:25:51,481
RECOVERY CREW:
Hornet roger, copy, out.
1263
01:25:52,190 --> 01:25:54,567
PA OFFICER: Hornet reports spacecraft
right on target point.
1264
01:25:54,901 --> 01:25:56,194
RESCUE PERSONNEL: Splashdown!
1265
01:25:57,820 --> 01:25:59,322
RECOVERY OFFICER: Hornet copies.
1266
01:26:01,240 --> 01:26:06,245
SWIM 1: This is SWIM 1.
The Command Module is at stable 1.
1267
01:26:06,371 --> 01:26:07,830
RECOVERY OFFICER: Hornet roger.
1268
01:26:07,955 --> 01:26:09,957
PA OFFICER: Stable 1 now, stable 1.
1269
01:26:15,088 --> 01:26:16,923
COLLINS:
Our condition is all three excellent.
1270
01:26:17,048 --> 01:26:18,675
We're just fine, take your time.
1271
01:26:19,342 --> 01:26:22,387
PA OFFICER: That was Mike Collins
reporting the crew is excellent.
1272
01:26:22,512 --> 01:26:26,641
RESCUE OFFICER: The third astronaut
is in the net and on his way up.
1273
01:26:42,824 --> 01:26:46,786
This is Recovery 1,
I have three astronauts aboard.
1274
01:26:51,416 --> 01:26:53,042
HORNET: Recovery 1, Hornet. Understand.
1275
01:26:53,167 --> 01:26:56,170
BIG swimmer has completed his
decontamination of the Command Module.
1276
01:27:02,844 --> 01:27:05,138
PA OFFICER:
The elevator will take Recovery 1
1277
01:27:05,263 --> 01:27:08,307
down to the hangar deck
where the crew will enter
1278
01:27:08,433 --> 01:27:11,018
the Mobile Quarantine Facility.
1279
01:27:11,102 --> 01:27:14,480
This control center
becoming jammed with people.
1280
01:27:14,605 --> 01:27:17,942
We've never seen this many people in
the control center at one time before.
1281
01:27:21,779 --> 01:27:26,033
The Apollo 11 plaque has been
hung in the Mission Control Center,
1282
01:27:26,159 --> 01:27:27,744
a replica of the crew patch.
1283
01:27:55,480 --> 01:27:59,358
And the flags are waving
and the cigars are being lit up
1284
01:28:00,568 --> 01:28:03,571
and clear across the big board in front
1285
01:28:03,696 --> 01:28:10,995
is President John F. Kennedy's
message to Congress of May, 1961.
1286
01:28:14,582 --> 01:28:16,584
JFK: Even though I realize
that this is,
1287
01:28:16,709 --> 01:28:20,004
in some measure,
an act of faith and vision.
1288
01:28:20,546 --> 01:28:22,507
For we do not now know
1289
01:28:22,632 --> 01:28:24,884
what benefits await us.
1290
01:28:25,009 --> 01:28:27,929
But if I were to say,
my fellow citizens,
1291
01:28:28,054 --> 01:28:30,723
that we shall send to the moon,
1292
01:28:30,848 --> 01:28:35,645
240,000 miles away
from the control station in Houston,
1293
01:28:36,521 --> 01:28:40,733
a giant rocket, more than 300 feet tall,
1294
01:28:40,858 --> 01:28:44,987
fitted together with a precision
better than the finest watch,
1295
01:28:45,112 --> 01:28:48,491
carrying all the equipment needed
for propulsion, guidance,
1296
01:28:48,616 --> 01:28:52,995
control, communications,
food and survival,
1297
01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:57,542
on an untried mission,
to an unknown celestial body
1298
01:28:57,667 --> 01:29:00,545
and then return it safely to Earth,
1299
01:29:00,628 --> 01:29:06,217
re-entering the atmosphere at speeds
of over 25,000 miles per hour,
1300
01:29:06,384 --> 01:29:09,387
causing heat about half that
on the temperature of the sun,
1301
01:29:09,470 --> 01:29:11,681
almost as hot as it is here today,
1302
01:29:11,806 --> 01:29:17,436
and do all this, and do all this
and do it right, and do it first,
1303
01:29:17,562 --> 01:29:19,021
before this decade is out,
1304
01:29:19,146 --> 01:29:21,065
then we must be bold.
1305
01:30:43,147 --> 01:30:46,484
CRONKITE: Man's first trip to the moon,
a magnificent eight-day voyage
1306
01:30:46,609 --> 01:30:48,819
spanning time and space and history,
1307
01:30:48,945 --> 01:30:51,364
ended today
when three American explorers
1308
01:30:51,530 --> 01:30:54,951
brought their small ship down safely
in the Pacific.
1309
01:30:55,076 --> 01:30:58,871
Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong,
Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins
1310
01:30:58,996 --> 01:31:01,666
landed their spacecraft
southwest of Hawaii
1311
01:31:01,791 --> 01:31:04,043
at ten minutes of one, Eastern time,
1312
01:31:04,168 --> 01:31:08,005
nine miles from the recovery ship
and two miles off target.
1313
01:31:08,130 --> 01:31:09,966
After donning protective clothing,
1314
01:31:10,091 --> 01:31:13,052
the three astronauts were airlifted
to the carrier Hornet,
1315
01:31:13,177 --> 01:31:15,972
and transferred
to a special isolation chamber.
1316
01:31:16,097 --> 01:31:19,558
They'll be quarantined 18 days
while scientists determine
1317
01:31:19,684 --> 01:31:22,979
if they've brought back
any dangerous lunar organisms.
1318
01:31:23,104 --> 01:31:26,148
Their flight climaxed centuries
of dreaming
1319
01:31:26,273 --> 01:31:28,943
and months and years
of planning and training.
1320
01:31:45,543 --> 01:31:49,964
I'd like to take this opportunity
particularly to thank all those of you
1321
01:31:50,089 --> 01:31:52,675
I see out there
who are my gracious hosts
1322
01:31:52,800 --> 01:31:54,635
here in the lunar receiving laboratory.
1323
01:31:54,760 --> 01:31:59,890
And I can't say that I would choose
to spend a couple of weeks like that,
1324
01:32:00,016 --> 01:32:04,145
but I'm very glad that we got the
opportunity to complete the mission.
