    An excellently timed video. I still recall the excitement I felt as a kid watching the rockets launch and seeing the Apollo program progress. I even recall my father's disappointment; he had purchased an expensive new color TV so that we could watch the landing in color, and it turned out that the signal sent from the moon was in black & white.

    • @im.empimp
      @im.empimp 5 лет назад +1

      It was over a decade after the Apollo program ended before we got a color television, and my dad made a huge deal about it - I can't begin to imagine the expense and trouble your dad went through, but I can absolutely empathize with the disappointment that he must have experienced when all the moon landing video was in B&W!

    About 30 years ago, at the Space Museum in Hutchinson Kansas, I had a chance to look through about three inches of bulletproof glass at one of those rocks - a one-inch or so chunk on a pedestal, in a compartment about six inches wide (a foot wide counting the glass). The pedestal itself apparently sank into a steel recess in the floor whenever it wasn't on display.
    It's really quite a humbling, awe-inspiring experience to see it and think about its history.

    A Saturn V launch costed $375 million so you actually can put a price on each rock.
    $25.4 billion (total Saturn program cost) for 382 kg of rocks (total weight of rocks collected) comes at $66 million per kg. In 2019's money that is $460 million per kg.
    And that doesn't even make them the most costly substances in existence but it certainly puts them among the top along endofullerenes, californium and antimatter.

    I enjoyed all three videos about this facility. But I would ask different questions. Eg., "When you send a rock to a university for study, do they generally, always or never send the rock back here?" And, "What form of transportation do you use to carry the rocks to the universities? Do they ever travel by air? Or by any commercial means like FedEx?" And similar questions that pertain to their safety and safe keeping. But nobody asked these questions. Sure, one of the videos mentioned the two-person combination lock on the vault door, and one video mentioned the two-key locks on the samples, but generally I was sad that these issues weren't covered.
