    This is the first time I ever saw this. Those Divers were incredible. The Decontamination process was so well done and thorough. The recovery was more dangerous then the actual landing.......the sea is so unpredictable. They were all in great physical condition. Yes, the atmosphere burned up stuff on the outside but those astronauts were covered with very fine moon dust. God knows what could have been present in those molecules. Great footage. Thank you for this. Amazing. Brave men all!!!!

      The wallpaper on the surface of the capsule was damaged and peeled off.
      "experts" from NASA did not know that after three days of weightlessness, no one is able to get out of the capsule on their own.
      One of them was weightless for seven days.
      They didn't know then that without training devices on board, they had no chance of moving around on their own.

      Guys I hate seeing Lies propagated. I grew up in Houston Tx right by the Space center and I have seen it all and been to many NASA facilities. We sent many things into space but we never went to the Moon, it's a lie plain and simple. The Moon is 28k miles away, orbit is 200 miles. They wanted to cover up for killing Kennedy with a big Moon shot to fulfill Kennedy's dream and smooth over relations with the public that knew they were guilty. They really wanted to go and tried to figure out a way. Problem was it's impossible or was given the technology of the day. So when faced with telling the public we tried but failed or just lying and sending some guys up for a couple orbits then claiming they went, they did what the government always does and lies. It's 52 years latter and no one not even us has been back?? It's a lie, don't believe lies even if they are nice ones.

    Great footage. My father was an AF engineer back then. He had some involvement with Apollo. He was a math professor for a while & did some brush up/tutoring for some of the pilots, just in case they needed to do some figuring on the fly. We even have a few photos of Bbq's with some of the pilots when I was 3 or 4. Unfortunately, I have no memory of meeting any of the pilots.
    Mom tells me dad wanted to be pert of a recovery crew but, wrong branch, wrong skills. Mom tells me he begged and pleaded with everyone he knew in the project but it didn't happen.
    With the thousands & thousands involved with Apollo, he was lucky to have the involvement he did have. The entire country was behind these missions.

    My father and his brother worked on the splashdown and recovery system for Apollo. In particular the airbags used to right the capsule. There was a lot of hand wringing about the requirement to right itself rather than attach something after landing. The fear was that they might land hours away from a rescue ship in bad weather, turn turtle and the crew perish because they couldn't be flipped. They opted to haul the 200+ pound airbag system all the way to the moon and back.

Well, this footage with proper narration brings back an important thought though... that each of these missions was possible only thanks to the army of thousands of nameless (until now) people who joined their talents, and often risked their lives to increase chances of these missions to succeed. The truth about the space exploration always was that it takes thousands to help one to reach the stars... on shoulders of giants...

      Joe Candela yes. It was due to space sickness. In the smaller Gemini capsule, which both he and Lovell had flown before, there wasn’t enough room to maneuver around inside, but in the Apollo command module, they had much more room, to maneuver around, and that causes space sickness. Rusty Schweickhart experienced the same on Apollo 9, which caused him to only do a “stand up” Eva on the “porch” of the lunar module, instead of the planned EVA transfer from the LM to the command module. It was a phenomenon that wasn’t very well understood at the time, since they first encountered it on Apollo. Nowadays it’s (obviously) completely normal, and it won’t have any consequences as it usually stops within a couple of days. But back then, they’d pull you from a future flight if you got it (which is partially the reason why Schweickhart only flew on Apollo 9).

    Wolfram's book, Splashdown, is not just a personal journey but a different vantage altogether of an even any "space head" thought they knew. Well told and direct, I highly recommend this book. Two aspects: not just the story of the astronauts' return and all that preparation but for military enthusiasts, a very complete and revelatory account of Navy SEAL training. Completely fascinating. Get this man's book!
