    Everything about this is phenomenal but I was really surprised at how moved I was watching the restored onboard view of the stage separation you tagged on at the end (and which was superbly done); seeing Earth come back into view made me reflect on the trillions of everyday things that were going on down there that day as this astonishing thing was happening above - on the 25th August 1966, I was 2 1/2 years old and my mum & dad were alive and well. Of course I had no notion of this at the time but would grow to become obsessed with the Apollo program a few years later. This video is a gem; thank you SO much for your dedication to put this out there. Hopefully the algorithm directs it to Everyday Astronaut, Marcus House etc so they can promote it.

I think he preferred ‘spacecraft’ even for the portion that re-enters. He wrote: “a capsule is something you swallow!”

    Simply remarkable work here. I grew up on the Space Coast and witnessed every Apollo launch as a child. I was 9 years old for Apollo 11 and remember it well. Most classmates in elementary school were children of the men and women that worked Apollo at Kennedy Space Center. Even as a 9 year old it was a grand time in Cocoa Beach and Merritt Island. I wish my father-in-law was alive to see this video, he would appreciate your efforts. He worked on Apollo and was actually a Space Craft Operator, or SCO, that worked inside all of the CMs during testing in the VAB and at the launch pads. I’m certain this video of the glow of the indicators flashing would put a smile on his face. I have a great photo of him standing inside Apollo 11 CM looking out of the side hatch. He was fortunate to work on project Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and the Space Shuttle. He had a glorious career and our family is proud of his contribution to NASA’s programs. Thank you for your efforts on producing this video.

Ton of work but that's why all of us that love this part of human history and truly understand the significance. I grew up in the Antelope Valley California during the space shuttle age and have always been fascinated by every bit of it and what they were able to achieve with such antiquated equipment that at the time was beyond cutting edge. I really hate that the organic human equation is being filtered out more and more. The cape at launch is still the largest and most organically eloquent super computer made up of may very smart individuals in charge of their specific task at that time.. That element is still there but not in that scale. Truly amazing what human ambition achieved during those times.. Regardless of It being the USSR or The United States. Thank you for making this.
