R.I.P. Michael Collins. I always enjoyed you talking about Apollo and your career. A true gentleman and American hero. 🚀
RIP, Michael Collins. I read your reputation in the Space sector in y course English book, and until now I still teach a few lessons about first step of the man on the moon.
Amazing documentary. RIP Michael Collins. And thank you.
Thanks Mike.
Have read Michael's book just recently and it is a great read.
I did also. His book is a unique document giving an inside view of how the Gemini and Apollo projects were carried out. And he was the best writer among the astronauts.
I hadn’t heard of it until now so I’ll go search it out. Thx.
Since 'Carrying the fire' I truly respect this man.
His is the best memoir of the Gemini/Apollo Program. I have only one criticism. Where he mentions Von Braun in chapter five, substitute Oberth.
These great Americans are God's instrument to see his glory...I admired them from my soul.
Fantastic series up to BBC standards. Well done!
Not long before his passing, Collins had an interview which included a bit of a confession. It turns out that the suit the astronauts wore gave him a case of claustrophobia. It was so bad that he had to keep it a secret lest he be grounded.
Great video...👍
the original 'major Tom' . . .
I was not aware of the existence of the three pillared Apollo column in Rome. Jeezers. That is quite something. Even if it were perchance a gimme, like, they hacked it down to 3 remaining pillars to symbolise the 3 man crews of the Apollo space program, or, no vandalism but they did name the space program after that particular edifice, it is nevertheless quite remarkable simply because there it nevertheless is.

One Michael Collins to the other, any familial connection? Yes, the American astronaut Michael Collins was a distant cousin of the Irish patriot Michael Collins.
Why they had just one astronaut in the command module ?
Because they needed 2 to perform the descent phase in the Lunar Module.
@@user-dh6bj2me5p why not having 2 in the command module? What if he gets sick or die?
Bollywood produced all the footage in Benares.
That would explain all the excruciating singing and dancing.
I am the golden eagle what do you expecting from this Bird 🦅 🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚
Takes the lie to his grave.
What lie?
Can you prove it with real evidence?
If not, you're the liar.
@@user-dh6bj2me5p
TONS of evidence.
One being there is absolutely zero evidence of humans breathing low pressure (5 psi and under) pure oxygen for days at a time, let alone weeks.
Even the Space Station, Space Shuttle missions, and the new Artemis design provide normal sea level pressure along with normal nitrogen/oxygen life support atmosphere.
oh how novel, a conspiracy theorist and illiterate
