The bit about Collins staying is real. He said years afterwards that had Neil and Buzz not come back up, he wasn't going to come home. Had NASA known that at the time his ass would have been grounded.

A small nitpick, but during apollo 11 the MCC wouldn't refer to themselves as "Houston". They would simply refer to themselves as mission control or the name of the director (Kranz). It was first referred to as "Houston" in Apollo 13 after the famous line "Houston, we have a problem"
Thanks for sharing. I had the opportunity to witness a rocket launch in 2018. Unbelievable experience. I shared a pretty cool montage of the journey to my channel.
Really? That's not how he describes it in his book, Carrying the Fire. He specifically describes hearing the communications and how a congratulatory comment of his got misunderstood due to the time lag.
@@odysseusrex5908 sorry you are correct. I just went back and read the transcripts, he heard them all the way down. What he DID miss was the first step. He went LOS about 4 minutes earlier. That's what I was remembering.
He did not need a strong arm. He had big brass hairy 🎱s that kept him cool under stressful circumstances and thinking clearly while working the problem. Something a token astronaut does not have.
Essentially they took the premise of what if sergei korolev hadn't died on the operating table in the 60s and had made it so the soviet moon program stayed together to beat the Americans to the moon. It's a "what it" alt history that's damn good
No it didn’t happen like this. This is a fictionalized TV series that proposes an alternate history of the Soviet/American space race. You can look up the history of the actual Apollo missions on wikipedia.
The show is alternate history where the Soviets land on the moon first. In our timeline the apollo missions end after 17 but in the show it continues to like 30 and in the show they have a moonbase in the early 70s called Jamestown
It's an alternate history BUT they're not just pulling stuff about what might have happened instead if soviets got there first. No they're basing it off real contingency plans (Nixons death on the moon speech was typed up n ready to go ), events (Neil did see boulders at last min and almost crashed) and memoirs / diaries (Collins would have refused to come home alone. He wpuld have let his oxygen run down
In a real situation, they would have stopped showing everything on Television. All these scenes of people watching and hearing all the "can you read me" audio wouldn't have happened
@@zoo7351 Not really an apt comparison; that was being filmed and broadcasted in real-time, plus the immediacy and sheer stun of the incident would naturally cause news outlets to keep filming, if only because everyone was in such shock that crew and station personnel wouldn't immediately think to cut out.
NASA TV continued to broadcast the Columbia accident as the CAPCOM radioed "Columbia, Houston UHF comcheck" and after it was obvious a major accident happened with the flight director declaring a contingency & locking the doors. I remember watching it live. They also aired the Antares explosion live too and didn't cut away, although that was unmanned.
I always wondered if Collins would refuse to return if Neil And Buzz were lost. I like how he's like nope not coming back and they're like what are you going to do to make him lol.
In his memoir "Carrying the Fire" Mike Collins said he had no intention of committing suicide. He would hate doing it, but he would absolutely come home alone if he had to.
@@linuspoindexter106 Yes. He could have been assigned as commander of Apollo 17 and walked on the moon himself. After Apollo 11, he figured his family had been through enougn and decided to retire. No way he would have gone with this alternate history.
Since when scifi shall be forbidden on YT? And this here is no flat earth no moon landing theory. The apollo11 was in fact not far away from that scenario. They did a manual override and searched for a better landing site. But in the end those guys had years of experience flying and testing plane prototypes. The sad truth is that noone would have done it today. Not sure if the safety precisions are the reaon or marely an excuse.
One very small nit, when calling Eagle after the telemetry cut off Cap Comm uses the term "Tranquility", short for "Tranquility Base". However in reality if you listen to the real Apollo 11 landing communication it is Neil Armstrong that first uses the term "Tranquility Base" right after touchdown, which was not a term planned to be used before he did so. You can even hear Cap Comm stumble over the word "Tranquility" when saying "Roger, Tranquility. We copy you on the ground" after Armstrong says "The Eagle has landed".
idk how they lost comms with Eagle assuming they crashed since Armstrong and Aldrin landed safely on the moon and were in radio contact the whole time.
Columbia had a small telescope (the AOT) used for star sightings. IRL Mission Control very much wanted Collins to use it to see Eagle so they would know exactly where they were. He tried on several revs but was never able to see Eagle.
When you get fantasy movies that divert from what really happened can we be surprised at the amount of fake news around. Tell the people a lie often enough and they will believe it.

The best scenes in this show are the actual space stuff and human drama related to space (NASA vs the military). The worst is the relationship drama.

Neil told Charley what it was going to be called before they launched, Charley just stumbled over his words because he was so nervous.
this is just like what they did with happy valley in season 3:)
Charlie still chuckles over how he did the first Elmer Fud impression from Mission Control, saying “Twan.”

Yea so? There’s so many movies about him

When you build a moon rocket in *KSP* and you crash on the moon with jeb kerman onboard:☺
When you Crash on the moon in *KSP* with Bob kerman:
Idk how collins was able to use a telescope to view the Eagle since Apollo 11 wasn’t a J type mission that had telescope on them.
In the FAM timeline they added it. Likely changes due to losing getting first to the moon.

Then near flawless landing of the real Apollo 11 was way to boring, so they had to Hollywood this thing up a little . . .
