Do you have any thoughts
on that decision?
154
00:16:57,351 --> 00:17:00,312
Well, even considering
von Braun's initial criticism,
155
00:17:00,396 --> 00:17:04,525
it seems that the payload saved by
parking the primary vehicle in orbit
156
00:17:04,692 --> 00:17:07,820
and sending a smaller ship
down to the lunar surface
157
00:17:07,903 --> 00:17:09,655
is well worth
the resulting challenges.

as the challenges?

And rendezvous and docking.
161
00:17:15,035 --> 00:17:16,829
Why do you think
spaceflight's important?
162
00:17:19,581 --> 00:17:25,337
I had a few, uh, opportunities in
the X-15 to observe the atmosphere.
163
00:17:26,088 --> 00:17:30,300

see it at all.

think about it too much, but...
167
00:17:39,226 --> 00:17:44,064
When you get a different vantage
point, it changes your perspective.

00:17:45,691 --> 00:17:49,945
I don't know what space
exploration will uncover,
169
00:17:50,028 --> 00:17:55,367
but I don't think it'll be exploration
just for the sake of exploration.
170
00:17:55,701 --> 00:18:00,622
I think it'll be more the fact
that it allows us to see things

a long time ago.

(STAMMERS) What I mean is, uh, do
you think it will have an effect?

00:18:35,073 --> 00:18:37,826

it wouldn't have some effect.

It'll be an adventure.
196
00:19:58,949 --> 00:20:00,868
NARRATOR: Since the time
of Jules Verne,
197
00:20:00,951 --> 00:20:04,079
man has imagined
traveling to the Moon.
198
00:20:04,246 --> 00:20:06,206
The old idea
of how to get to the Moon
199
00:20:06,290 --> 00:20:09,543
was to send one spacecraft
all the way there and back.
200
00:20:09,793 --> 00:20:13,088
However, NASA engineers have
developed a modern approach.
201
00:20:13,255 --> 00:20:18,260
Where one rocket contains several ships
that will make the journey together.
202
00:20:18,427 --> 00:20:20,262
Just as Columbus
took a rowboat
203
00:20:20,345 --> 00:20:23,098
from the Santa MarÃa
to the shore of the New World.
204
00:20:23,432 --> 00:20:25,934
The astronauts will
take a smaller spacecraft
205
00:20:26,018 --> 00:20:29,021
from the mothership
down to the lunar surface.
206
00:20:29,187 --> 00:20:31,773
When it's time to return,
the smaller craft
207
00:20:31,857 --> 00:20:33,525
will lift off from the surface
208
00:20:33,817 --> 00:20:37,779
and dock with the mothership, which
will then power the crew back to Earth.
209
00:20:38,030 --> 00:20:40,741
Thus, thanks to the brilliant
minds of NASA,
210
00:20:40,824 --> 00:20:43,201
the age-old dream
of going to the Moon
211
00:20:43,327 --> 00:20:45,203
will soon be achieved.

The Soviets have beaten us at every
single major space accomplishment.
216
00:21:03,513 --> 00:21:05,182
Our program couldn't compete.
217
00:21:05,849 --> 00:21:08,226
So we've chosen to focus
on a job so difficult,
218
00:21:08,310 --> 00:21:10,896
requiring so many
technological developments,
219
00:21:11,355 --> 00:21:14,358
that the Russians are gonna
have to start from scratch.
220
00:21:14,691 --> 00:21:16,193

No, no.
We've got a boy, Rick.

He's five and a half.

Oh, we should
get them together.
239
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:16,420
DEKE: If we wanna
get this done,
240
00:22:16,628 --> 00:22:19,172
we need to prove that two ships
can find each other in orbit
241
00:22:19,256 --> 00:22:20,966
and dock without crashing.

of Project Gemini.

a flight with a specific task.

When using a multi-stage

What's neat about it?

Well,
283
00:26:59,035 --> 00:27:02,080
it was about how to
rendezvous with the Agena.
284
00:27:02,455 --> 00:27:05,208
If you thrust,
it actually slows you down
285
00:27:05,292 --> 00:27:06,852
because it puts you
into a higher orbit,
286
00:27:06,918 --> 00:27:09,671
so you have to reduce thrust
and drop into a lower orbit
287
00:27:09,838 --> 00:27:11,214
in order to catch up.
288
00:27:11,339 --> 00:27:13,425
It's backwards from what
they teach you as a pilot.
289
00:27:13,508 --> 00:27:17,846
But if you work the math,
it... It follows.

so watching this broadcast...
1546
02:09:42,860 --> 02:09:45,154
REPORTER 2: Countless millions
more listened on the radio
1547
02:09:45,237 --> 02:09:46,697
to the voices from the Moon.
1548
02:09:46,780 --> 02:09:50,033
Never before had so many people
been attuned to one event
1549
02:09:50,284 --> 02:09:51,827
at one time.
1550

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
1551
02:09:56,582 --> 02:09:57,725
MAN: (ON TV)
...feats of all time.
1552
02:09:57,749 --> 02:09:59,185
REPORTER: Does it amaze you
that it's taken place?
1553
02:09:59,209 --> 02:10:03,088
MAN 2: It not only amazes me, but I'm certain
that it amazes everybody in this country.
1554
02:10:03,172 --> 02:10:04,756
REPORTER 2:
What do you think of it?
1555
02:10:04,840 --> 02:10:06,467
MAN 3: The Moon,
I hope that sometime
1556
02:10:06,550 --> 02:10:08,010
everybody will go there.
1557
02:10:08,177 --> 02:10:10,780
REPORTER 2: Wanna go yourself?
MAN 3: Oh, yeah, I wish I can go right now.
1558
02:10:10,804 --> 02:10:15,100
WOMAN: I think this is a very
important day. It's a historical day.
1559
02:10:15,184 --> 02:10:19,229
And the whole universe is concerned
about this, the landing on the Moon.
1560
02:10:19,313 --> 02:10:21,233
And as a French woman,
how do you think about it?
1561
02:10:21,315 --> 02:10:23,400
Oh, I think it's wonderful,
I always trusted America
1562
02:10:23,484 --> 02:10:25,027
and I knew
they couldn't fail.
1563
02:10:25,777 --> 02:10:27,946
NEWS ANCHOR: And in Washington,
an anonymous citizen
1564
02:10:28,030 --> 02:10:31,867
placed a small bouquet on the grave
of John F. Kennedy with a note.
1565
02:10:32,117 --> 02:10:34,745
"Mr. President,
the Eagle has landed."
1566
02:10:35,120 --> 02:10:38,999
And indeed on this day,
as we mark the astronauts' return,
1567
02:10:39,082 --> 02:10:41,293
it's hard not to think back
upon that speech
1568
02:10:41,376 --> 02:10:45,339
our 35th president gave
just seven short years ago.
1569
02:10:45,631 --> 02:10:49,009
JOHN F. KENNEDY: If this capsule history
of our progress teaches us anything,
1570
02:10:49,384 --> 02:10:52,179
it is that man,
in his quest for knowledge
1571
02:10:52,304 --> 02:10:55,724
and progress is determined
and cannot be deterred.
1572
02:10:56,225 --> 02:10:58,185
But why, some say,
the Moon?
1573
02:10:59,102 --> 02:11:01,438
Why choose this as our goal?
1574
02:11:01,897 --> 02:11:05,734
And they may well ask,
why climb the highest mountain?
1575
02:11:06,193 --> 02:11:09,363
Why, 35 years ago,
fly the Atlantic?
1576
02:11:10,030 --> 02:11:11,990
Why does Rice play Texas?
1577
02:11:12,407 --> 02:11:14,701
We choose to go to the Moon.
(CROWD APPLAUDING)
1578
02:11:15,118 --> 02:11:17,246
We choose to go to the Moon.
1579
02:11:19,081 --> 02:11:23,502
We choose to go to the Moon in this
decade and do the other things,
1580
02:11:23,585 --> 02:11:27,422
not because they are easy,
but because they are hard.

REPORTER: How do you feel?
1584
02:11:38,517 --> 02:11:40,203
REPORTER 2: Have you
spoken with your husband?
1585
02:11:40,227 --> 02:11:42,187
Would your sons like to
be astronauts like him?
1586
02:11:42,271 --> 02:11:43,689
REPORTER 3: Mrs. Armstrong!
1587
02:11:43,772 --> 02:11:45,649
Have all your prayers
been answered?
1588
02:11:46,149 --> 02:11:47,401
Yes, yes, they have.
1589
02:11:47,484 --> 02:11:49,486
REPORTER 4: How would you
describe the flight?
1590
02:11:50,028 --> 02:11:54,616
Well, uh, I can only say
it was outta this world.

the full three weeks,
