My dad went to Grad school with Scott and Slayton. Grew down the street from the Scott’s and spent many days at there house.
Dave Scott and Jim Irwin seem to be the forgotten moon walkers (and Ed Mitchell too). Space enthusiasts often speak of Pete Conrad and the lovable Al Bean; the legendary Alan Shepard, the master John Young, the wonderful Charlie Duke, the no non-sense Gene Cernan, and the enthusiastic Harrison Schmitt. Scott and Irwin never seem to get the attention as those others got, which is shame because the crew of Apollo 15 is just as amazing as the others.
All legends in their own ways.
Are you kidding me?! Col. Dave Scott is among the all-time greats - the overblown stamp scandal aside.
@@JeffGR4 Yep, a great astronaut and pilot. Also very human. Used his official position for personal gain (or tried to). Later sued for some other financial chicanery. He and Duke Cunningham had a lot in common.
because of the postal cover thing
They got into trouble
It never ceases to amaze me what David Scott and the other Apollo astronauts had to know, prepare and train for their missions. They are articulate and express their thoughts in an easily comprehensible manner. Also, it amazes me to imagine “what their eyes have seen” for each moon walker. Incredible!
I think Hadley-Apennine is the best landing site to view through a telescope. It has everything. The Rille. The South Cluster and the North Complex. And to look down on Mt. Hadley itself from an altitude of a quarter million miles is a treat...
I'm proud to say that I spent the Apollo 15 mission watching it on TV. Vivid memories. I was a snot-nosed 11 year old. Imagine life for Dave Scott, and all the Apollo astronauts. They spend 10 days of their lives flying a mission. Granted, it's years of prep, but centred on just those 10 days. You're 35-odd years old. When you get back to Earth, you're faced with spending the rest of your life talking about just those 10 days. The psychological stability of these guys (apologies, Buzz Aldrin) is mind-boggling. Each of the living 600-odd people who have been to space have had their consciousnesses alterd by travelling off-planet. An invaluable perspective, and resource.
David Scott, is someone I met who is a really nice guy!
Brilliant man, smart beyond words, courageous. Also flew the F-104 to it's limits, and a niche beyond, then lived another day.
Dave's first two missions were commanded by Neil Armstrong (G8) and Jim McDivitt (A9). Would love to ask Dave to compare these two as commanders.
Mr Scott said he is alive today because of Neil Armstrong.
Really good speaker.
David Randolph Scott was one of the greatest astronaut ever to flight a mission.
A brain the size of a house.
@CH1 they were testpilots. They had to be arrogant.
The complete opposite of John Young in the humble, “aww shucks” department….
Brilliant astronaut
Two suggestions if I may, give more time to this interview 38 minutos is to short to listen to colonel Dave R. Scott and second try to edit it in a better way.
gem in nee (not gem in eye)
In Latin, yes. In English, either (EEE-ther) or either (EYE-ther) is the same. 😊
24:21 Backup crew blues.
What about the "amazing Domes" up on Stone Mountain?
Very interesting but the amateur production lets it down as does the jump cut missing sections. I really wanted to hear more about Jim Irwin's water supply issue!
I'll bet you it was on film, not tape. They had to change magazines.
What about Irwin's giant crosses? Apollo 15.
Why did Apollo moon astronauts only go once?
Great interview but I just cant get all these sudden breaks while Dave Scott speaking. I mean just let him speak or dont cut the tape you ruined many of the contexts.
I'll bet you it was on film, not tape. They had to change magazines.
Dang I thought Jim only went 1 lunar eva without water, not all 3. Yeah his electrolytes levels must of been low including his potassium levels. This definitely caused damage to Jim’s heart on Apollo 15. That’s is his own fault not speaking up. I would have pressed on too, the moon is a one time extraordinary adventure.
You would think Scott would have altered the EVA time to accommodate Jim's inability to hydrate for 7 hours at a time... times 3 days- No wonder in this interview he just automatically says 'I don't know" ISFA that caused heart problems in the future? I wonder how Scott felt every time he took a drink on the Moon?
Now there’s a guy you want to listen to. Not full of himself like John Young
John Young - full of himself!!!
@ 13:30 Dave calls the survey out the top of the LM a “Scouting Expedition”. Beginning with AS12 lunar crews performed this 360 panorama for a few reasons, one being to confirm their location and another to see if they had company. Jim Irwin famously while positioning the lunar video camera “accidentally” panned it across an object sitting on a hillside three times, whereupon Houston warned him to be careful where he was pointing it. Later after an EVA Houston almost demanded he make certain the cabin door was locked wherein Jim Irwin cursedly said it’s locked.
That is nonsense.

When are we actually going to go to the moon?
We are going *back* to the moon in a few years.
Pretty soon hopefully next year.
Har Har. Hopefully we’ll be going Back to the moon, dippy.
@@RobB-ms4qx Hopefully you get educated on physics.
Artemis 2 will be crewed but will not land. Atm it looks like it's going to get launched not before September of 2025. Artemis 3 is scheduled to attempt a landing, but is probably launched not before 2027.
So poorly edited as soon as he started talking about Irwins ussue it cut out. Come on this is history. Fir fucks sake
His explaination of the relative positions of the spacecraft got cut short too. Theres more about Irwin at 33:02, however.
