The Apollo Experience - Part 1: Apollo 17 - The Last Men on the Moon | History Documentary
Watch 'The Apollo Experience - Part 2' here: • Apollo 17 - The Last M...
Between 1968 and 1972, NASA successfully sent 24 men where no human beings had been before or since. The final mission, Apollo 17, flew in December 1972 and closed the final chapter in NASA’s triumphant Apollo Program. Using spectacular NASA high-definition archive footage, mission audio and rare astronaut interviews, this is a unique documentary film that comprehensively chronicles one of the greatest moments in mankind’s history.
Uninterrupted by narration or expert interviews, this documentary immerses the audience inside the action as it happened on the day, over 40 years ago. Journey with astronauts Eugene Cernan, Harrison Schmitt and Ronald Evans through their extensive training and across their 14-day mission to the Moon and back, and share the discoveries with Cernan and Schmitt as they explore the lunar surface for 3 days, while Evans performs experiments and reconnaissance in lunar orbit. The Apollo 17 Experience is an emotive, informative and inspirational tribute to the spirit of human exploration and mankind’s final steps on the Moon.

1) Take into account where the recording is taking place (in Houston). There's no reason to expect a delay when an astronaut speaks and Houston answers. The delay is in the other direction, when Houston speaks and an astronaut answers. 2) Many documentaries and other shows edit out the delays because the audience doesn't want the long pauses and wasted time. The delays are always correct on the original recordings.

I got to meet Ronald Evans when he came to visit his family and talked with him for a bit. He was kind enough to autograph an encyclopedia that I had on the entry for the Saturn V. Wish I still had that book. Unfortunately it has gone missing over the years and I have no idea what happened to it.

This documentary is highlighted by incredibly detailed and extensive footage of the work and travels that took place on the moon and all narrated by the astronauts themselves as they were performing those duties along with commentary from the ground crew. Spellbinding and riveting. I will definitely watch this again and recommend this documentary to EVERYONE I know. Also, cant believe the abuse those suits took with all of the falling down and the dust everywhere. With the physical nature of all the work performed I cant believe there were no mishaps such as accidently tearing a suit open on a rock or piece of equipment or a hammer slipping out of a hand and doing some damage to a mask or suit. Plus, cant believe how far they traveled each day and how long their EVA's were.

Question: " How did the footpads of the Apollo 11 LEM get cleaned of the moondust, which would have surely been there after the lunar landing?? Did moon fairies come out with feather dusters to clean them off before the cameras rolled??? Please tell me how. I want to know.

The debate in Apollo was do we need a crew of three highly skilled aviator/pilots who receive some scientific training, or, in the case of Jack Schmitt, do we send a scientist to the USAF Air Education and Training Command for a year and train him to fly high performance jet aircraft. I think Apollo 13 showed that if things go wrong...very wrong, you needed as many skilled pilots as you can squeeze into the capsule! Regardless, I'm glad Jack Schmitt made it into space, but sorry that the Apollo program ended three flights short of what had been scheduled. It was a hell of a ride while it lasted.

Cernan was the best moonwalker to speak with (and I've spoken with most of them). That man, I'll tell ya, he could read people better than anybody I've met, and he instantly could tell whether to ramp the conversation up to super-techy engineering talk, or tone it down to casual basics. Somehow, he instantly knew how technical to be (or not to be). I've only met him 3 or 4 times, but, each time was really great. He'd tell my wife exactly the types of things she'd want to hear (more simple stuff), then shift gears and tell me about how the guidance computers worked, then shift gears again and talk about how he felt emotionally while on the moon. The only thing I didn't like was that he kept bringing up his religion (and his religious experiences while on the moon) every time I'd talk with him. That's about the only thing he ever misread about, because I could have lived without those little segments of conversation. But, the rest... pure perfection. Another thing I learned was never to make heroes of anybody. I mean, not that I really ever did. But, like I tell my kids, just judge people on the stuff you know. If you are a Michael Jordan fan (or any other sports person), fine, but don't admire him for who he is as a person, just admire his abilities on the basketball court. And, if you admire an astronaut, just admire him for his accomplishments in space, not because of who he is as a person. Not that Cernan is really bad or anything, but, there are some aspects of his personality that are very "human" (that I won't get into), and it's best to stick with admiring as the astronaut he is (er, was), and not necessarily judge anything (good or bad) outside of that topic.

Good gods, do you REALLY not understand photographic perspective? Really? You're not aware that shadows converge? Dewdrop, it's the same as if you squat down between two train tracks and take a photo. It looks like the two train tracks are converging, right? It looks like there's no way a train could ever roll down those tracks, because the left track is converging toward the right, and the right one is converging toward the left. Yet, you know darned well that if you took the photo from above, the two tracks are parallel. Well, same thing goes in that photo you're talking about, dewdrop. The shadows converge. That's what they're supposed to do. If they didn't then that means that the light source was inside the camera, not 93 million miles away. You have pointed out a very good photo that confirms the single light source that's extremely far away. But, somehow, you managed to believe that the shadows shouldn't converge?

Intersting tech with the field scan video cameras. In 1972, color video cameras were massive. They figured out how to make it light by using a black and white camera that shot three images thru primary color filters and interlaced them to make a video frame. Works well, but it does cause color artifacts called the "Harris Shutter Effect" when objects move between images in each frame. This is why the LM liftoff images have the camera artifact colorful sparks.

Apollo 17 Misson lasted a total 75 hours on the Moon all on 1960s batteries technology, how did they get the massive weight of batteries to the Moon? and how did they get three days out of those batteries? solar power would not be enough for what they did. It's taken until 2023 for a Tesla to get about 300 miles on a single charge, the batteries also weigh 1200pounds.
@rockethead7
@rockethead7 10 місяців тому
"how did they get the massive weight of batteries to the Moon?" By using rockets. But, note: the batteries weren't like any batteries you use in your car or home. They were ridiculously expensive silver-zinc batteries that costed something like $50,000 each (and each lander had an array of them). That's about $400,000 (per battery) in today's dollars. They used 6 of them per lander in the earlier missions, and 7 of them per lander in the later missions (because, as you pointed out, the later missions lasted longer). They were very chemically stable and packed a lot of energy into a smaller weight than conventional batteries. But, the kicker is that they were not rechargeable. "and how did they get three days out of those batteries?" By having a bunch of them. "solar power would not be enough for what they did." They contemplated solar panels early in the design phase. But, that was abandoned because solar panels back in those days were too fragile, and likely wouldn't survive the very harsh shaking and vibrating of a Saturn V liftoff. And, it was too risky to stake their entire mission on something that fragile. The only use of solar panels for any of the Apollo lunar missions was for Apollo 11's surface experiment package. And, it quit working after 3 weeks. So, from then on, they used nuclear powered isotopic generators for that type of equipment. It runs on the Peltier effect. "It's taken until 2023 for a Tesla to get about 300 miles on a single charge, the batteries also weigh 1200pounds." Well, Tesla is welcome to use a bank of silver-zinc batteries, like Apollo's, if they want. It'll give them a much longer range because those batteries hold a heck of a lot more charge than lithium ion batteries. But, somehow, I doubt the Tesla buyers will want to spend a few million dollars every time the battery runs out, because, as I explained, those Apollo batteries couldn't be recharged. They were one-time-use only. For cars, I think people want cheaper batteries, and ones that can be charged daily.

The earlier moonwalks were far shorter, less ambitious in scope, and the astronauts much more careful with the suits and other equipment because they didn't know how well things would hold up in that environment. Apollo 11's "contingency" plans for a quick exit if need be were a good example. With each mission they got more comfortable with the technology, more bold in their actions, and less formal in their behavior during the EVA's. By Apollo 17 the moon walkers were downright playful and giddy. In other words, going to the moon had became more routine, which is part of the reason Apollo 18 - 20 were cancelled. We'd been there, done that, it had become routine, taxpayers were losing interest and questioning why we were spending the money to keep going back.

The rover was folded and stored in the bay with the underside of the chassis facing out. One astronaut would climb the egress ladder on the LM and release the rover, which would then be slowly tilted out by the second astronaut on the ground through the use of reels and tapes. As the rover was let down from the bay, most of the deployment was automatic. The rear wheels folded out and locked in place. When they touched the ground, the front of the rover could be unfolded, the wheels deployed, and the entire frame let down to the surface by pulleys. The rover components locked into place upon opening. Cabling, pins, and tripods would then be removed, and the seats and footrests raised. After switching on all the electronics, the vehicle was ready to back away from the LM. There are illustrations on pages 135/136 in the Haynes Apollo manual published in 2019, which show how the rover was folded up and stored and on page 199 a diagramme which shows how it was deployed on the surface.

@@renejean2523 Now, now Rene. Dingus has a point. He was a better actor, when he did all those docos afterwards - In the Shadow of the Moon, my favorite, he did a great acting job there. It was articulate and genuine, almost as good as his piloting and test piloting skills, less better than his astronautic skills as they got him to the moon and back and certainly his moon exploration ability was top notch.

Blech @ Gene. He's so corny and bland. Michael Collins all day long, baby! Grissom if we've choosing skill, but Collins if we're choosing personality. Dude's a riot! 😂

@@ThisHandleFeatureIsStupid - I agree about Collins. He was a hoot. His book is by far the best of any space person I've read. I suppose I'm swayed by Cernan's intense and more comprehensive mission. The length of time on the moon and his relationship with Harrison Schmitt while there. Also, his first words soon after landing were, "Incredible. Absolutely incredible. ... The most epic moment of my life." Which I've always thought was pretty cool.

Yup, and it wasn't even footage from Apollo 17. They borrowed the CDR shot from Apollo 15 at 47:52. And, I'd have to go through the videos to be certain, but, I think the rest of the shots are from Apollo 16. That's why these documentary videos are difficult to watch if you want 100% accuracy. The editors often borrow footage, just in the interest of relaying the spirit of what's going on, not necessarily meant to be taken as exactly correct. As far as I'm aware (and I'm willing to be wrong), there is no Apollo 17 footage of riding the rover.
