The late, great Neil Armstrong. We all have heroes in our lives, and Neil Armstrong was mine as a child. I grew up in the 60's and watched the space race between the USSR and the USA unfold. What an amazing time in our history, which I was lucky to witness. 🇺🇲
Armstrong showed amazing cool during a potential disaster. At one point they were rolling so fast they could barely see the instruments! NASA remembered this when they were considering the first moon landing crew.
Thanks for another great video. The '60s were the "wild west" in space. There is so much today we take for granted. We have these brave pilots and focused engineers to thank for much of it.
Gemini was a mini space station. It was used to test and prove out the techniques for going to the moon. Gemini 8 proved that a life threatening emergency could be overcome.
There is some tantalizing bits of cross talk bleeding over from another channel at about 23:30 for about 30 seconds to a minute. Sounds like someone is about to get chewed out, but the conversation can only be heard when the main audio is silent. Anyone know who that is talking and what its about?
In the previous minutes you can hear the speaker asking for all the tapes and data etc. I assume that’s for the thruster issue. At 23:00 through 23:46 or so it sound like it starts off about someone getting inbound calls like someone is looking for someone. He second voice refers to the caller not saying in reference to the first voice asking where they work. Then basically they’re too busy if to find someone. “That’s it” he says. I’m figuring it’s tense cause they want to know exactly what freakin’ happened.
I wish, I trust, that you have the strength and perseverance to continue, since you have many orders and each has a different order. For my part, I hope, I wish, that someday can Gemini 9 to 12, were precursors flights, all very nice, each with its own details, and that without them, perhaps Apollo would not have come... This Gemini 8 yours, for example, I do not know how many times I've looked and I never tire. Thanks!!
Thanks Simon, and if something I can help, something to contribute, you tell me, you let me know, some things I do not want you I fill material, because you probably already have and do not want I get me your thanks (and do not want more, I am ashamed, I do not deserve to be mentioned because nothing compares what you do with what I do: yours is a work of creation and dissemination, mine simply is collecting or hoarding) if you see something you need, something you would like to complete and do not have it, happy to help, maybe I have it or maybe not, mine are several years stockpiled material, even I have customer number NASA since 1997, all sent by them through FedEx and also through FedEx I had to return, and so expensive I came out, very expensive, and on top then I found almost everything for RUclips, but it was all edited, what I really wanted was the raw, it had cost. Well I will not steal more time, you have a lot of work lol... A big hug from Buenos Aires, Ricardo
TBH it is an educated guess along with asking people I know who have expertise in the subject - but in the main, its a representation of the event - regards LM5
There are 2 sound tracks playing at the same time. distracting. listen to this and you can hear 2 different films playing. Thanks Good video & history.

My hearing isn't so great these days, but I can tell you one thing, that guy Rodger, sure is popular. I think his full name is Rodger Wilco, and he seems to be drinking lots of coffee.
Friends, wait a minute - compare the physical condition (in those years) of Soviet and American astronauts after landing. Soviet cosmonauts are often carried on a stretcher (due to a sedentary lifestyle and disorders of the vestibular apparatus due to weightlessness), and the American cosmonauts were clearly on vacation - how so ???
Cosmonauts were staying in space for weeks/months from fairly early on, while the vast majority of US missions were very brief in comparison - this mission for instance (Gemini 8) wasn’t even 11 hours long! A more fair comparison might be Apollo 14 vs Soyuz 11 - both around the same time (1st half of 1971) but even though Apollo 14 went all the way to the moon, it wasn’t even 10 days, whereas Soyuz 11 was the very first mission to the very first space station and the crew spent almost a month in space. Even up through the 2000’s, almost all American shuttle flights were just a few days, while cosmonauts were spending 6 months+ on MIR. Until the ISS, the US only had one space station and there were only 3 missions total - the last crew (Skylab 4) spent 84 days and did need chairs when they returned but mostly, astronauts of the period just didn’t spend long enough in space to require any special treatment on return.
No subtitles needed to know whose talking when it's Kranz talking.
Gene Kranz was the epitome of the "steely eyed missile man." He's a legend.
Gene Kranz looks like a poster boy for the Marines.
I had the pleasure of meeting him several years ago. Very humble. Great man.
That's why we have Gene Kerman now.
wunderfull recontruction in 3D and real footage. Thx!
Glad you enjoyed it

You are welcome Bill
Thanks for that series of a very dramatic Gemini mission.
thanks astro
I know this is a lot of work. Thank you.
Thanks Joe!
Thanks LM5, mine was a small granite, thank you to you all this great work you have done for the History of Astronautics !!!

Thanks LM5, great job as usual!
Thanks 57...appreciate the comment - regards LM5
Another successful mission LM5. Great work, as usual.
The film is an abort rehersal before the Gemini program began
Thanks gort - these comments are only just showing as not responded to!!! 3 years later!
Beautiful site view. Oh my God! Thank God they came back safely .
Thank you as always my friend, for putting these together. Always a highlight of my day!

yeah Ricardo no worries, I will get this series done in time. as for Gemini....number 4 will be the next Gemini I do regards Lm5

Nice job on all of these.
How do know when to show the thrusters firing?
TBH it is an educated guess along with asking people I know who have expertise in the subject - but in the main, its a representation of the event - regards LM5
When analog was cutting edge! Amazing!
I didn't get to see this, as I was getting ready to turn 3. Neil and Gene - fellow Ohio guys!
Around the 8 minute mark, there is a small island in view. Any idea what island that is?
Sorry Terry I dont know - if I get a chance I will take a look - regards LM5
Not a critical issue, I was just wondering.
Giligans island
8:00 has the islands of Hokkaido & Sakhalin in view.
holy crap @ l.o.s durning retro and before reentry. no one could even no for sure if they had a good retro burn.
another great series.
thanks cold
What ever became of the Agena ?
Agena 8 was visited by the crew of Gemini 10 and after that it reentered the atmosphere September 15, 1967
Thank you 👍
You are welcome
Work the problem. Don't guess.
really want to see a mission with space walks
any mission specifically?
For example,Gemini 4,because of the first US EVA ?
yeah its on my mind to do...I have all the audio and most of the video....will get to it one of these days
Well there's plenty of flights with EVA
There are 2 sound tracks playing at the same time. distracting. listen to this and you can hear 2 different films playing. Thanks Good video & history.
Yeah my apologies - I forgot to mute one of the audio tracks att eh beginning..regards LM5
@@lunarmodule5 Thanks - Good stuf. Keep it up and IF it can be fixed Great! Be well & safe.
The audio from the "B Roll" video is *WAY* too loud and it's difficult to hear the flight director's loop. Then again, that's what it was really like for the guys in the MOCR as they tried to listen to their back rooms and the boss simultaneously.
My hearing isn't so great these days, but I can tell you one thing, that guy Rodger, sure is popular. I think his full name is Rodger Wilco, and he seems to be drinking lots of coffee.
He also copied lots of things, not sure what he actually copied, but it sure kept him busy.
i really wanna see a man on the moon,like real time live video!
Just wait a bit for the Artemis project. They're getting thete soon...
Жалко. Жалко, что большая часть видео смонтированы о "реальности", а не документальная съёмка.
Why is Kranz here? I thought John Hodge was the Flight for this. In fact, wasn't this the very thing that cost Hodge his job?
The spacecraft did not splashdown in a vertical position. The craft was horizontal!
When this happen?
How the heck did they film the re-entry?
They didnt...I did
+lunarmodule5 how?
Its done on Space Simulator...
+lunarmodule5 that's what I expected
Did the Flight Director change during the reentry sequence? Doesn't sound like Hodge.
Yes, Gene Kranz took over as primary flight director, that's him at 1:07 in the video, Jim Lovell is still capcom.
Bill Anders took over for Lovell just prior to the thruster problem.
They operate in shifts.
Where’re is the third guy "?
3rd guy? This is Gemini, not Apollo...
We're watching one thing and listening to another.
Glaube Mut Liebe .
At 0:18; "Okay, could you give me the same spiel, please?"
Translation: "I don't give a sh#t what you told Arnie, tell me!".
Go get 'em, Flight!
