    Hey Jared. I'm 60 years old so obviously old enough to recall moon landings. Always been fascinated to know how they did everything. Your videos do great job walking us through intricacies of moon missions. Thanks for posting these.

    It probably bears mentioning that the Lunar Module's ascent engine was the only propulsion system on Apollo with no backup. The service module engine was originally designed for lifting the CSM off the Moon and was WAY more powerful than it needed to be, so if it failed the Lunar Module's descent engine could do the job instead (as was done on Apollo 13). If the descent engine failed during any phase of the Moon landing, the ascent engine could be used to abort the landing, get back into orbit, and rendezvous with the CSM.
    But if the _ascent_ engine failed to ignite on the Moon, the astronauts were stuck there forever. Worse, the Ascent Propulsion System had extremely simple plumbing that made it impossible to test-fire, because the corrosive oxidizer would basically destroy the engine in the process. So on every Apollo mission, the ignition of the ascent stage on the Moon was the first time that particular engine had ever been fired. The Bell engineers who built the LM's ascent engine probably had the most stressful job in the whole program.

    • @JaredOwen
      @JaredOwen  7 лет назад +189

      I'm sure the astronauts were pretty nervous as they prepared to launch off the surface of the moon. That would have been sad to get to the moon but not be able to return home. Thanks for your comment - this is good info!

      I heard that Buzz Aldrin accidentally broke off the switch that fired the ascent engine! (Bumped it while wearing his EVA suit.) Had to stick a pen cap in there to make it work. Now THAT would make me sweat.

    • @Andrew-wv7qp
      @Andrew-wv7qp 6 лет назад +37

      The other interesting fact about the ascent engine was each engine was assembled and installed without testing it. The corrosive nature of the fuel meant that the engine would have to be rebuilt after firing, so no testing was possible. In other words, the very first time the engine was ever fired was on the ascent module, by the astronauts who were depending on it to get them home. Just a bit of pucker factor.

      I did a report on the shuttle US back in 1980 more like a research paper was working on degree in applied science got a A for it but interestingly they never gave me back my paper but in my report i wrote that this. Craft was doomed to failure at some point due to not only its complexity but the fact that this ship was very fragile those boosters an example & just the whole design, structure the materials used the vulnerability to extreme climate made it a ticking time bomb add to the fact that it was expensive to operate & maintain for those reasons were probably why they kept my paper did they think i might let NASA know? & that i was right all along.but they said it was a good report may be too good.will never know.

There is nothing you have ever done that others cannot do better, besides maybe a video game nobody cares about.

    I worked on the Saturn V and this is the best video explanation I've seen. I worked on the Instrument Unit which was the brains of the Saturn V. It was built by IBM under a contract with NASA in Huntsville, AL. The IU had all the navigation, guidance, telemetry, communications, etc. functions through Trans Lunar Injection. At the IBM facility where I worked, there were posters urging everyone to work with Zero Defects. Another poster with a quote by Wehner von Braun explained why: "If the Saturn V is 99.9% reliable, there will be 5,600 defects."
    I did some calculations recently and a typical cell phone these days has about 3.5 million times the storage capacity of the Saturn V IU and computer processors have about 1 trillion times the processing capability of processors in the 1960s.
    It is amazing to reflect on how primitive computers were back then and how we got to the Moon with such limited capabilities.

      Yes and a big reason why robotic missions are the preferred method of space exploration. Space travel is outrageously expensive and manned space travel is grotesquely outrageously expensive. Now that two shuttle crews have been killed, the need for safety in manned missions might just be too overwhelming for NASA and whomever is in office at the time to actually get anymore of them done but time will tell.

    Outside Franklin, Pa. there used to be a Dairy Queen which had a boiler plate of an Apollo command module out front. A boilerplate is a full sized mockup of a space capsule design used in simulations. The DQ closed in 2019 and the module is no longer there.

    Just to flesh it out, the 2/3 engine burns after launch from the moon were called:
    Coelliptic Sequence Initiate (CSI) - 1st engine burn
    Constant Delta Height (CDH) - 2nd engine burn, or 1st on the later missions
    Terminal Phase Initiate (TPI) - 3rd engine burn, or 2nd on the later missions
    These 3 burns were computed backwards, starting from the desired point where you want the LM to meet up with the CSM (which was at lunar sunrise) and working your way back to the desired launch time.
    Vaguely,
    purpose of the CSI burn was to put the spacecraft in position for the CDH burn.
    purpose of the CDH burn was to put the spacecraft in position for the TPI burn.
    purpose of the TPI burn was to have the LM and CSM meet up at a specific point in orbit.
    Later missions skipped the CSI burn as the LM was launched directly to the proper orbit for CDH to take place. This was called a "direct insertion" launch.
    Jeff Quitney has a video at ruclips.net/video/UOnKHX1p8s4/видео.html detailing the process of getting the LM back to the CSM in orbit.

      Pretty sure most people who doubt the moon landings could be flown up to the moon, have their head bounced off the LM decent stage and would still not believe it.
      They start talking about how it was put there later and we didn't actually go in the 60s and everything is just an elusion and we all live in the matrix.
      At some point you have to take into account the overwhelming mountain of edvidence that points to the fact it did happen and stop focusing on some minute thing that can neither be proven nor disproved.

      Paul Sharpe: Hi guy! Tell me where I am wrong and provide evidence:
      Where is the video showing the inside of them LEM with the astronauts in
      the moon suits and attached with the bungee cords. They had a periscope in the CSM and LEM for navigation, but for some reason there are no pictures or videos of stars. The second moment changes as the fuel and oxidizer gets used, but somehow these 4 groups of steering motors kept the LEM from crashing. No remote control or autopilot test landing to verify the LEMs control system and steering motors, with the sloshing fuel and oxidizer and water, but somehow they got it right the first time. The LEM simulator Neil flew and crashed obviously did not have the same second moment as the fake studio LEM on the moon stage. No radar stations on the moon to verify the unknown orbit of the fake CMS, and the ignition time of the LEM, and track the fake LEMs altitude and range as a function of time for descent and ascent. For the moon suit sublimator what blackbody absorber temperature did they use for outer space and the maximum power flux from the sun from the ultraviolet to infrared wavelengths. Same with the engine jet landing on the moon and the missing dust cloud and nobody afraid of rocks piercing the LEM or damage to the antennas, steering motors, or landing radar. They could have pointed the cameras up away from the moon instead of golfing on the moon stage but they decided not to because they would have taken pictures of the stage guys on the catwalk They also drove the moon buggy with lots of dust in the vacuum of the moon studio. Where is the video showing the astronauts in the LEM on the studio mooooon putting on their backpack life support. The clown did a fake spacewalk in the non gravity simulator in the airplane, but for some reason no stars in pictures or video from that. Their studio moon suits were contaminated with moon dust, which likely is radioactive, but no problem to put a Geiger counter next to their suits to verify there was no radiation hazard.Neil jumped off the studio LEM, but since it was live they could not slow down the speed by the square root of six, like the Six Million Dollar Man slow motion, because that would put the rest of their studio acting out of sync..Astronauts could not get more than 6 inches off the moon as they were hopping and walking and pretending to be on the moon stage. Radiation heat transfer on the LEM so they used a glycol cooling loop to radiate that heat back out into the air conditioned studio. Total hoax.

The one part out of all of this that has never been clearly explained to me was how the tunnel from the CSM to the LM attached and opened for passage. How does a claw become portal? Even 'Apollo 13' (1995) didn't explain it and they even showed the plug I've never seen before or since.

      The problem that will have to be solved that wasn't required for a moon landing is Mars gravity. Although it's about 38 percent that of earth, it's still a lot stronger than the moon's. Everything will be heavier, so lifting back off the moon will require much bigger engines and a lot more fuel.

Despite the physical training they get in orbit.
      Now imagine them on the Mars surface, after a year without gravity, suddenly undergoing a .38 G environment. Who will welcome them and give them assistance. Do you think they will be able to work and perform?

    "Once we're back in earth orbit, the service module is no longer needed."
    The Apollo's that came back from the moon did not return to earth orbit. They followed a 11.2 km/s direct entry approach with an atmospheric tangent of around 96 km in altitude. Fifteen minutes or around 10,000 km prior to reaching the point of tangency, the command module shed the service module which was no longer needed.
