  • The crew are off course, 200,000 miles from home and without a guidance computer. Their lives now depend on their flying skills - and Jim Lovell’s wristwatch. Astronauts Lovell, Haise and Swigert need to manually steer their spacecraft back on course for Earth. Even the smallest error will stop them from making it home alive.

    The more I come to know of his work, I am convinced that John Aaron was the best and brightest man in Mission Control. Just an opinion of course. 😀

      There were many "best and brightest."
      Most, we've never heard of.

    2 1/2 hours is a heckuva tech support call. I've been on longer, but never close to anything like this.

    It's hard to believe there were no DC motors

    The off trajectory "drift" confuses me.
    For anything to change to trajectory, it has to be a force... a pressure causing the opposite reaction.
    But if there's something venting causing the deviation, it shouldn't have been a problem because the stack was put into a slow constant roll to aid passive heating from the sun. So any consistent venting would constantly be cancelled out by the repetitive rolling.

      I read they discovered a water jet or something when they got back to earth. I bet it bothered them too!

      ​@@animula6908"discovered?"
      There was nothing to do an investigation on. It was all burned up... The Service Module and the LM.
      Water? They didn't have water. When the fuel cells were wrecked, the water production was lost.
      Again, the SM/LM stack was in a slow roll to maintain some solar heating so any and all venting would have been cancelled out.

    There would have been many parts that could have been scavenged and made a devi that would have charged up the batteries

      Uh.... They had enough complexities to deal with at the time. If this procedure would have been as simple as you try to make it sound, why not describe it in a way that was used to cobble together the air filter system. List the components and the sequence involved in assembling and using them and then practice sending them up by radio.

      All you have to have is a magnet spinning close to coils of copper wire . There would have been many of those throughout the service module and people in Houston that could have told them where they were

      There's a dude in England named Robert Murray Smith that can do remarkable things with parts that were intended for other purposes.. There's a term for that but I don't remember what it is

    • @michaeldinkins9145
      @michaeldinkins9145 Месяц назад

      The term is " bricoleur"

      "NONE AVAILABLE."
      Just because you think something doesn't make it true.
