EARTHRISE: The First Lunar Voyage
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 дек 2015
- This stirring film recounts the flight many consider to be NASA's most daring and important. Interviews with Apollo 8 astronauts, their wives, mission control staff, and journalists take viewers inside the high-stakes space race of the late 1960s to reveal how a bold decision by NASA administrators put a struggling Apollo program back on track and allowed America to reach the moon before the Soviets.

Watershed event for NASA for sure. I was 13 years old, and watched this mission on TV from launch to splashdown. It was great to have the flight coincide with the Christmas holiday. So relieved when they made it back safely. Even my Grandma (92 years old) was excited about this flight, and stayed glued to the TV too. Sadly, she passed away less than a month later.
I was also 13 at the time. 2001: A Space Odyssey also came out that year. Both events, one real one fictional, had a huge effect on me.
"And from the crew of Apollo 8, we close with good night, good luck, a merry Christmas, and God bless all of you - all of you on the good Earth."
I remember my 10 th Christmas because of this apollo mission...these people, all of them that made it possible are all great humans...
+Michael Hollier Yeah,and now you got the spaceman oh-Bummer!
??k
I was 8 but I still remember it.
Fond mermories...have a great day.
I am in France I will go to bed soon lol. But thank you.
Brings tears to my eyes.
Brought tears to me too.
Because it's fake?
@@ophiolatreia93no?
49:00-51:15, how awesome is that? Houston Apollo 8 over, watching the American flag go up in Mission Control, all the cheers and celebration, seeing Frank Borman hopping in the recovery boat, Bill Anders being lifted up in the basket, etc. Behind the music soundtrack, it totally gave me the chills and choked up a little, that was great!!! With exception to Apollo 11, Apollo 8 by far was the best mission, very bold with a lot to lose, and everything to gain!! Sadly, we don't see things like this very much nowadays. What a moment in time, unbelievable!!
BTW AR, Mike Collins (CMP) of Apollo 11 considered Apollo 8 was the primo mission!
I have to agree with Collins - the audacity of Apollo 8 to me truly personifies the entire space race in a way Apollo 11 can't quite match. First humans to leave Earth and orbit another celestial body over two hundred thousand miles away. They were true pioneers and their names should be memorialized just as much as Armstrong, Aldrin, & Collins.
In some ways I found this mission more moving than the actual landing on the Moon - especially that photo of 'Earth Rise' and the Christmas Eve broadcast.
It was fake
Jmd555555. Yes, it was the first time any earthly organisms had reached another celestial body. At least by their own, free Will.
@@ophiolatreia93 how
In almost all ways the science & achievement in the “race” political aspects was the least interesting. The images of Earth from space, the awe of perspective & understanding of a. colorful planet floating in a galaxy of grey, lifeless matter was the apotheosis of the endeavor. There were no life forms to exploit or conquer, little to see but mountains & craters, rocks and dust. The miracle of our planet, the waste and damage we inflict in the processes of living, is made even more incomprehensible.
I did also the most moving emotionally and spiritually.
I come online to find a brand new 50+ minute video from space rip... WAHOOOO. Space Rip - keep doing what you're doing, coz you seriously are amazing. RUclips was crying out for a no nonsense, well educated, well put together space related videos. And you've only gone and bloody done it. Love it!
+Daniel Bagang (Danny) uhhh what? Did you even read what I wrote?
Thanks for posting, Joan. Never heard of this one.
I had just turned 9 years old when the world kinda stopped to watch in amazement these images, it still gives me chills from that image.
Awsome video! :)
End credit music... very special. Very unusual. Very beautiful.
This is so amazing to watch that I didn't even notice it's 480p =D
Fantastic watch, thank you :)
This is the best documentary I have seen about the Apollo VIII mission.
Check out the Saturn V.
Beautiful program, amazing mission! Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful
Thanks for this.. inspiring stuff👍🇳🇿
Very nice. Thank you.
Nicely done documentary.
This is the first Christmas my parents were a couple. I brought it up in 2018 on the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 8.
The power of the Saturn V is hard to imagine. 1 million lbs ... zoom!
Over 7 million
Awesome video
Space is so damn cool
+ariefianto95 Actually, it's extremely cold.
+SnoopyDoo Actually, it's such an extreme vacuum that the temperature doesn't really mean anything. If it was 500 degrees out there you wouldn't even notice the difference if you stuck your hand out.
***** Coldness is NOT the result of molecules slowing down. That's the effect coldness has on molecules. It isn't the cause. Coldness is the result of lack of energy.
Eh, it's ok.
Rigid body rotation disproves space travel. Gas law disproves space.
Great doc
Balls of steel!
watching this makes me stronger then ever
Did you people see the launch- and LANDING yesterday? History was made!
yo did you @_@>_
I smelled it.
+Mark Tuchinsky
Werner Von Braun would be proud.
Men perhaps on their way to the moon, that gave me the chills
Thank God for Apollo 8!
An impressive, successful and emotionally moving Apollo mission providing humanity with the first view of earth over the surface of the moon. Earth rise.
That’s gotta be the most amazing feeling for a human being to experience.
Poor Jim went around the moon so many times and never got to walk. They should have given him another missiom
Beautiful docu! Spacerip keep it up!
New narrator ey? His voice is smooth, good for this type of documentary.
+BunnyCentauri Old narrator. This show dates from 2005.
Just a wonderful film!
Also, I see what you did there with release timing. Another historic moment having happened 2 days ago.
And can you believe that people actually believe it never happened?
Nice, I know what I'm doing tonight! (Watching this video). What happened to the old narrator? I liked him.
+Prelmable Read the Credits at the end. SpaceRip's ppl didn't produce this one directly. But still a solid hour of re-discovery and reflection.
1968 was the same year "2001 A Space Odyssey" came out. Suddenly zipping up to the moon for a business trip in the near future seemed routine. Just two years before in 1966 "Star Trek" had us traveling to distant galaxies at Warp-Speed. So what happened? :-)
James Harris - What happened was a disconnect between science fiction and science. In the case of Star Trek, though, it was never even connected. ST was not very good science fiction. They didn’t even try to be plausible. When they anticipated some techno invention (flip phones), it was an accident. Clarke was a serious SF writer, though. But economic and politics rule.
@@GH-oi2jf : In the above I wasn't attempting to engage in a serious discussion but just a little humor... I agree Star Trek was never supposed to be about real SiFI, but it was more about social commentary about race, human rights etc. But then it sure was darned entertaining. :-)
I didn't know that Jim Lovell was on Apollo 8. I expect I got so accustomed to thinking of him as the Commander of Apollo 13 I didn't make the connection to this earlier Apollo mission.
When we saw that picture of Earth rising from the moon, we saw the Earth for the first time and it established a cosmic perspective that completely transformed who we are, how we relate to one another, and how we think about our future.

Beware of conspiracy theorists in the comments, guys!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods Have a load of this. Conspiracies exist, but not under that name, they are ideas passed within armatures of the decision system.
And if for a moment you're thinking "yeah, but it was nipped in the bud", don't, that's naive, it's still in operation, has been, it's been done before, and until they realize how retarded this means of existence is, they will try it again and again (vis a vis the recent failed, utterly shameless tries to start proxy wars via espionage blunders, training people then letting them loose, train others, pit them against each other, call one group terrorists, supply weapons etc).
It's not a conspiracy theorist that you need to watch out in these comments. Nope. It's just a few delusional old fluggers, the flatfoot society (of which many are in it for the scam to make money from the delusional ones), the trolls (you can tell them apart from others via really baity text), and finally the couch potato warriors (middle aged men stuck to their mother's basement style of life), oh and i suppose that annoying prick with, i think, ten accounts (if you've been around enough, you'll know whom i'm talking about seeing as he resurfaces with his most common one most of the time on the science channels).
Have a nice day, and read the wiki page. It's a disgusting piece of history, enlightening, but disgusting.
+Astro6 I just direct these people to this article : www.engadget.com/2014/09/18/NVIDIA-proves-moon-landing/
+404error I do not think they are worth re-directing...any where..and I mean any where..
+Michael Hollier Correct, I'm afraid. They won't believe ANYone who isn't one of their own. And even if you sent Eric Dubay to the ISS for a month they'd say "Fake", and if he affirmed that the Earth really is a sphere they'd say "He's been brainwashed or bought off...no longer one of Us...so sad."
Exactly correct DmJ four two!! Have a great day!!
I feel like listening to Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot speech all of a sudden.
I'm not even American but back then I was proud of the Apollo missions.
You Sir.....are full of shit.
5:06 Rocket Launcher sound from Goldeneye 007. ^^
If that includes the music, that rocker launcher must be loads of fun to fire.
I’ve been an adult for a couple of decades now and I’ve learned about the Apollo program the space shuttle program a bit here and there. I consider myself fairly educated. But it really isn’t until today that I grasped the VAST difference in distance between earth to the space station/earth’s orbit and the distance from earth to the moon... wow, what an incredible feat it was to go to the moon!! Far beyond the space travel of these recent couple of decades. Being born after the Apollo missions were over, I had lumped all of space travel into the same general category in my mind, I suppose. But I see now how incredibly surpassing in nature the trips to the moon really were, for sheer distance.
Earthrise
-- if it were observable from a stationary point
on the lunar surface --
it surely would have been literally
"for the first time"...
I remember. I had just turned 11.
Oh, just orbiting, not landing. :) Was wondering about "Earthrise". :D
Well they didn't land, because the lunar module wasn't ready to fly.
Now apollo 10 had a lunar module , but also didn't land, it was a practice flight
No one on earth had ever seen anything like 5:55 this before.
I refuse to watch a video with 7 interruptions for adverts.
31:30 😭😭😭😭😭😭amazing
Helicopter 66 did most of the crew recoveries. Alas, it was lost at sea before it was retired.
A replica / replacement of '66' is on the deck of the USS Midway at San Diego.
Life is all memory
I think I am, as so many of us are, wondering what in the heck happened to SpaceRip Senior Narrator mr. Dick Rodstein!!!1!
Regardless, the part where the women spoke about being military wives kinda struck me. A lot of people don't actually know that NASA is actually a civilian front for an army institution started by the US Air-force(which continues, to this day, to independently seek space) called NACA.
If Apollo's 8's Service Module had the same explosion as Apollo 13, Borman. Lovell and Anders would have been doomed as there was no LEM; hence, no lifeboat to get them home.

Susan Borman: The Voice of Reason
I keep coming back to this video for her reaction - it is so spot on. The incredulity of what they attempted -- and accomplished -- in this mission.
so many adverts 😭
I wish I had grown up during that time of the moon landings, the world is just a mess now.
What happened to all the space videos? It's like no one is making space videos anymore. :(
As one of the astronauts who "accidentally" died in fire accident of the 1st Apollo missions "We can't even have a radio communication with the nearby building HOW DA FUCK ARE WE GOING TO THE MOOM?!?!?"
Did anyone think that the spiny thing they use for training looks fun?
No HD? !
doobsnack : JUST CARTOONS AND CGI .😂🤣😂📚📖📚☠️....
All Hail SpaceRip!
43:38 Haha. Love the burn from the wife!
She wasn't pleased by Lovells antics joking about Santa Clause. As she stated, Bless his Heart. The Bormann's, at least Frank has always been described as very serious and by the book according to the other astronauts.
In video Earth is much bigger than before......
id like to know what its like to be on the moon orbit or on the moon surface
Other than the view out the window, being in lunar orbit fees precisely the same as being in Earth orbit. It also feels exactly the same as a suborbital flight - during the period of time you are free falling. That's all orbit is. The trip to the moon feels the same as orbit as well. It's all the same thing : free fall. Being in orbit feels like free fall.
I recognize this handsome devils voice!!! Is Herny from Eureka XD Dear Joe Morton, I think you are awesome! PS. Good show! Indeed one of the humanity's greatest achievement!
EDIT: The moon landing was great as well XD
1st from the Philippines
Very cool
so when is mars orbit happenin?
It's pretty badass what humans can accomplish when our minds aren't distracted by petty bullshit.
Stanley Kubrick didn’t have the moon studio ready yet.
moon landing was in 1960.
why dont replicate the footage using todays technology.
She didn't seem to happy that the engine fired !
I noticed that too

At about the 11:15 mark they talk about the next 5 test flights of the Saturn V. Wrong. There were only two test flights, Apollo 4 and 6. The Apollo 5 mission was a flight of the Saturn 1B with an unmanned LM flown in earth orbit. Guys, if you're going to make a documentary, get your facts correct.
Imagine being an alien heading here and seeing that for the first time up close!
'Merica! Fuck Yeah!
I still wonder if Kennedy had not been assassinated, would the Apollo program still gone to the moon???
Why wouldn't it have? The Apollo mission was created because of him...
John did it...uh....o.k.
Chris Kraft straight up legend
I thot of this mission when Crew Dragon launched its first human payload to the ISS. Just as Apollo 8 had saved 1968 I feel as if Demo 2 had saved 2020 from the otherwise cr@ppy year its been.
22.49 what is that ?
at first glance I thought it might be a small piece of dust or hair in the film gate. But it looks to be outside "falling away" from the capsule. Ice maybe? ...weird!
It looks like a piece of the third stage still floating in orbit after Breaking away when the Apollo spacecraft was jettisoned from the stage
An epoch where men had balls and weren't afraid to expose them.
+Billy Bob John True, these days you get sued for sexual harassment.
Pretty sure that got you in trouble during both...
I Remember These Space Missions Well....Apollo 8, Apollo 11 & Apollo 13 Were ESPECIALLY Memorable! Apollo 8 Brought The WORLD Together In A Way No One Expected - The Didn't Even Need The Moon.... It Was Profound!
The curse of Jim Lovell…Apollo 8 no landing….Apollo 13 no landing and lucky to get home. Never got another shot.
He would have been on Apollo 11 if Bormann didn't decide to retire after Apollo 8
Guys, if you are really so skeptical of the Moon Landings, buy a laser, learn how to use it, and bounce it back from the Moon, I have personally done this twice
And was that thanks to Apollo 15?
jim morgan From their early Luna program? I knew Apollo 15 set mirrors for distance measurements
What does that prove?
Lasers generally bounce back when they hit a surface.
1968:27 december 1968 landde de capsule in de Stille Oceaan
Nut dad
Yes, we did-- in fact-- go to the Moon! Pluto, here we come!
Name of the narrator please...
Nipples von Ryan, the best ever. 👌
Earth rise? Should the earth not be at least six times larger?
Depends on the focal length of the camera utilized.
Why? The earth is 240,000 miles away and the moon just a couple of hundred. The earth is only 4 times the moon's diameter. As mentioned before, the focal length of the lens was not a standard so proportions will not reflect reality. Several variables that should answer your problem. Nothing wrong with the photos nor cinematography.
J Roger Trudel - You have no basis for judging the apparent size of the Earth because there is no scale on the photograph
So who wants to be astronaut #13 to land on the moon? Good luck!
That's no flat Earth.. . .That's a Space Station!
That's amazing. Why haven't they gone back to the moon to take some 4K video? Probably because it's not real, but still a cool video. Highly satisfied watching it.
isanchez64 Simple, the moon landing was just a bigger dick show to the Russians in space travel technology and we won. Only time the government would fund something like this is if it made them look good or to prove a point. Scientific ventures outside of profit and political influence is seen as a bad investment. The government has nothing to gain from another moon mission so they’re not funding NASA another grant.
It’s not fake, and it’s not because the government are assholes. It’s because their is nothing to gain from it. The government is now working on Mars. The moon is just not worth going back.
@@cooldloop2381 And yet we are. Artemis, Orion and the Gateway.
Heroes!!! Some bad ass people right there, I'll beat the hell out of whoever said we didn't go to the moon.
We can't beat the truth into people.
@Jah Senor lol says the dummy.
It's a debate that still goes on today.
21:15. Hong Kong flu you say Mrs anders? 🧐
Of Chris said that their chances of getting home from this trip was 50/50, what were his honest odds of getting home after LANDING on the Moon as well as just flying around the Moon. And what about his odds for Apollo 13??
Try to not pause for so long...
It seems you are constantly tripping over your words trying to catch back up...
Is this a real history?
Always wonder God's plan ever!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Funny they would share Genesis 1. Apollo debunked at least one part of that story, that the sun and moon were "lights" placed in the firmament, which they certainly are not.
But the story from Genesis 1 doesn't ever mention Sun nor the Moon, it only mentions "stars", so how did they debunk a claim that was never made?
👽
I Thought this channel is dead.
+arebut69 nah, they have always been slow.
Fake photo. Look at The Cassini photo, the earth fills the entire field of view from the moon.
No, it doesn't To the naked eye earth would have an angular size of about 2 degrees.
David Musser
The earth is four times the diameter of the moon. Stand outside looking at a full moon and imagine if it were 4 times as wide. Would it take up the whole sky?
@@dansv1 There is nothing else in the picture to give you reference for size. If you have ever tried to take a picture of just a mountain range you will immediately be disappointed by the picture not conveying how massive the mountain is to you standing there due to the same lack of reference to scale in the picture. Also flying 60mi above the surface of the moon and no atmosphere create a vastly more massive sky then you could ever experience on Earth.
