a Number of years ago , when you were the Grand Marshall of a Parade (I don't remember which Parade) The TV announced Buzz Aldrin and both my Sons turned around to see Buzz , they were Very Excited . I tried to explain to then who you are , but they were disappointed when they didn't see Mr Lightyear . I have educated them and now they know who Buzz Aldrin is . - Magnificant Desolation !
I’ve been a long time subscriber and silent listener. I cannot express my gratitude enough for your hard work to share the most important academia. I’m proud to be able to extend your education to my children at no cost. It is priceless. Thank You.
My father was on the assembly team for the motors on the Apollo Command Modules. I remember Aerojet General testing them in the mid 60s outside of Folsom California
I was born in 1958 but i remember sitting in front of the tv watching the lanuch of most of these space craft it was always exciting to see now that i am older i think back and i am amazed that we did all this with the technology back then but now seem unable to get off the ground to me that is very strange
I mean, would you like a list?? Parker Solar Probe, DART asteroid redirect mission, James Webb Space Telescope, OSIRIS Rex asteroid sampling, etc... Ingenuity...a literal helicopter, flying around on Mars??? Not to mention, Artemis 1, SpaceX's Reusable ISS resupply vehicle Crew Dragon....and these are just the recent ones that I can think of, off hand. Perhaps you are just not paying good enough attention? Which makes it more confusing that you'd make a statement, like the one above...
I highly recommend the JPL and the Space Age playlist. These videos were initially unlisted, so I made a playlist of them myself, but now they're freely available, and they've even added a couple of videos.
To this channel's credit, that piece of space exploration history has been done, ad nauseum, especially here on RUclips... Simple summary....NASA launched outside of safe and recommended limits and paid for that decision with the loss of the vehicle and the crew that it carried. That "story" hasn't changed since the incident took place... Or simply type it into the search bar and turn up your BS detector...
It only took an hour before the SPAM bots and liars showed up, even an account claiming to be Buzz Aldrin! 😂 Cuz he sits around in his PJs waiting for new HG vids to drop
Thank you linking a number of your quality shows together to equal 1 hour. Enjoy watching your segments while working out and it really helps to just select a longer one, then hit the weights while enjoying the good history!
I would like to commend you for your well written and arranged presentation of the many topics covered. It's a refreshing break from the bain of informational videos, that being the ability to 'cram' 5 minutes of true information into a half hour of video. Thank you again, please continue sir.
Good morning from Ft Worth TX History Guy and everyone watching. Today is my 61st birthday. Space Exploration and my life started about the same time. Lol
Lake Worth TX here - I've got a few years on you and I'm still amazed at how far we've come in a comparatively short time - when I was born, Sputnik hadn't even been designed, and now we're seriously thinking of moon bases and manned mars missions.
Actually, because of its eccentric orbit, Pluto was inside the orbit of Uranus at the time. So even if it were a planet, it wasn’t the outermost planet in 1983.
You might want to timestamp any suggestions for editing...makes it easier for the uploader to find and correct them... Simply type in a time... 4:45 for example. It will link directly to the video above and jump to that point.
I sure hope you didn't mean the Surveyor Program portion of this compilation @ 27:40 The whole point of that program was to test for the ability to soft land a craft on the lunar surface, and was conducted in preparation for the manned landings of the Apollo program. As were the lunar flybys and orbits, conducted in the early Apollo missions, like you mentioned... You knew what he was talking about, correct? "TO" the Moon, as in LANDING on the Moon? The whole point of the space race??
At least with respect to Chester Sullenberger, I would tend to trust him when he says he is not a hero, or at least not with respect to his famous landing. After all, of all the seats in an aircraft, the pilot and co-pilot are the most likely to hit something in a crash (though they are also more likely to be well constrained by shoulder harnesses). The lives they were saving were their own. This is *NOT* putting yourself at risk or giving away a major part of yourself for the betterment of others. To be fair to Sully (and believe me, I will), it was an incredible demonstration of the upmost COMPETENCE (ability). You can argue that heroism can be defined as competence, but sorry, I'm not going to define the peculiar demonstration of a serial killer's ability to kill lots of people without getting caught as "heroism". Mr. Sullenberger's heroism comes from his actions *AFTER* the crash - after the applause. His heroism was that he could have sat home and lived the rest of his life in happy, well funded, relative obscurity. Instead, he has used his fame to continue to push for causes that improve the safety of aircraft. His bully pulpit has already had substantive changes in new aircraft design and airline policy. I would happily fly with this man, not because I think he would be heroic in the event of an emergency, but because he is (was) arguably one of the most talented commercial pilots out there.

Lance, I love you man, and this was a spectacular subject. But I stopped listening 90 seconds in. Normal human speaking speed is 120-150 words per minute. And some dumb consultant told you to do this thing at 250. Fire that person, and just talk to us. You're really good at this, stop second guessing yourself and trying work the algorithm, we're not going anywhere, if you just slow down and talk to us.
I agree that I do tend to talk too fast. But I assure you, I have never hired a consultant. My rate of speaking has no deliberate aim at the algorithm.
@@TheHistoryGuyChannel Lance, if your speaking rate has no deliberate aim at the algorithm, then maybe it should. You do speak at 250 quite a lot, but it's in tiny compartmentalized chunks. It's not terrible. You also do the 150 thing, and it's great when you do it -- that's when you really own your content. Your pauses are archetypally flawless, it's exactly what the creators of the best documentaries do. You are almost there brother. P.S., it was obvious that you didn't have a consultant. I just said that to mess with you and to get engagement from a creator, who's here for engagement. I hope you'll tolerate the irony. I really do love your work and what you do. My name's actually Mike, BTW, I was born in '67 and we've experienced an awful lot of the same things. That's why I'm here.
Seems to me that the entire Apollo program was a huge waste of lives and money. Surveyor did everything it was designed to do, the only significant accomplishment the astronauts did was bring back moon rocks. What was the point ? Surveyor already told us what the surface was made of. I feel that Gus Grissom, Roger Chaffee and Ed White all died a horrible death, for nothing. Velcro and Tang weren't worth the lives of these brave men.
"The Surveyor program was a NASA program that, from June 1966 through January 1968, sent seven robotic spacecraft to the surface of the Moon. Its primary goal was to demonstrate the feasibility of soft landings on the Moon. The program was implemented by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) to prepare for the Apollo program, and started in 1960. JPL selected Hughes Aircraft in 1961 to develop the spacecraft system" Surveyor Program/Wiki 2024 Maybe you should of told NASA sooner?
I'm honored to be apart of this documentary!

The town I grew up in was home to an Atlas ICBM silo, the repurposed rocket was used to launch Seasat in 1978.
I love that Australia still plays such a valuable role in space exploration..
Only because the other countries along that longitude aren’t as friendly lol
Along with a $500 littering ticket.
The continent is in a convenient location 😁

Pioneer 10!! She carries a gold record?
Veeger!
That hand colored image of the surface of Mars from the Mariner program needs to be displayed in the Smithsonian.

Hours and hours of excellent space exploration documentaries...double ditto.
I really like the way you ended that.
I love your channel. It’s a reminder that we are living history. Not just a generation longing for the past.
The Space Shuttle Challenger that crashed in 1986 has always fascinated me. I would of liked to see a story about it here today.
To this channel's credit, that piece of space exploration history has been done, ad nauseum, especially here on RUclips...

Thank you for remembering history, sir.
It’s all part of that wanting to know what’s out there that keeps mankind looking.
Thank you for these. They are the best way to celebrate the possibilities of what may be on the birth of our nation.
i wonder how much that 'paint by numbers' pastel art would sell for on auction
🙏 Thank you from a space history nerd.
I remember these missions - gave me goosebumps! Thanks for this compilation!!!
The endurance of the voyager probes is a testament to American engineering back when America was great.
Another fantastic video!! Thanks so much for your effort to educate the world!
Thanks for putting these all together Lance. Was nice to brush up on the subject. Old age has a profound effect on animate objects too… lol
Fantastic! Thank you for this. when we work out the gravitymagnetismspacetime problems......
Kites Is Stage One To Space Explorations Even For Ancient Astronauts .

I....still believe Pluo is our most outter planet.
Didn't get a fair shake.
Actually, because of its eccentric orbit, Pluto was inside the orbit of Uranus at the time. So even if it were a planet, it wasn’t the outermost planet in 1983.
The first man mission to the moon was Apollo eight and Apollo 10 also went there. So Apollo 11 was not the first manned mission to the moon.

All those lost peobes. Sounds like a Star Trek episode.
to surrect planets is how to live in a universe - mars belongs to life
(life as center of the universe )
to master a solar system as identity is a talent to explore -for everyone alive and everyone to come alive for all of eternity
(rockets are eternal )
Dont all pirates tell good stories?
Whats all that about the failure at the Bay Of Pigs?
