R.I.P Neil Armstrong you touched so many lives all over the world and you'll continue to be not known as the first man on the moon but as the first human being to show humanity that we can make it out there and we're more than ready to explore the final frontier.
Wow! This documentary was amazing on many levels - as I am in my early 50's I can remember most of the events and the impact I felt with each one - they are all a part of my life's journey, too. The music was also very meaningful and perfectly suited. R.I.P. Neil Armstrong and all those lost on the missions that did not go as expected. Their loss was never in vain. NASA - thank you so much!!!!
@Fred Jaminson I've heard that if you have the right kind of night vision goggles and you look up into space you can see all kinds of space craft up there right now. Technology didn't stop after Apollo. Think Star Trek.

This documentary was absolutely fascinating!!! Brought back so many memories and feelings I'd forgotten, what an amazing time to have lived through. Much gratitude and respect to these incredible human beings ❣️
@@donpettitwedestroyedtheapo6488 Yes, Neil Armstrong was a hero. You're lying to yourself when you claim that he wasn't. I hope we're both still around when future astronauts revisit Tranquillity Base and prove how deluded moon landing deniers have been.
@@josephcope7637 Do you think that with today's technology they couldn't photograph Sea of Tranquility and show the Apollo remains? Armstrong lied, and you are defending him, let that sink in.
@@donpettitwedestroyedtheapo6488 The truth has no problem being questioned or denied. PS to see something that small so far away you’d need a telescope the size of Earth. PS part 2 technology is not magic!
The decade that i was born ( 1964 ) , i remember the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969 , we were sitting in front of the TV with the whole family watching the whole thing unfold , i was only 5 but never forget that night !!
I was seven years old on the day of the Apollo 11 landing. In Toronto, where I grew up, there was a charged atmosphere of excited anticipation so powerful, I can still “smell” it after the passage of 50 years. The next day (Sunday) the moon walk was scheduled. The weather was beautiful, all the kids in the neighbourhood were outside playing and everything seemed perfect. Dad had bought a new television set a few months before, a 12” portable, b+w, RCA TV. I went to bed at 8 pm, as usual but my parents got me up to watch Neil Armstrong take the first step on the moon. I was entirely cognizant of the extra-ordinary historic significance of that moment- no-less significant than any other momentous event of human history....and I was born...just-in time to be an eye-witness of it and relate my recollections to a globally accessible medium that is a by-product of the technology developed to facilitate the Apollo Space Program, a half-century later! Thanks for getting me up that night Mom & Dad.
Sledcat I may be mixed up with several spectacular (in S. Ontario) lunar eclipses that occurred within the decade after the Apollo space program...but I seem to recall the moon during the Apollo 11 flight was full or very near full. Again, the weather that glorious Sunday of the August 21 moonwalk was as perfect as perfection can get, not a cloud in the sky. It is a very happy memory of a very healthy and vigorous time.
too bad it was broadcast from nevada NOT the moon by stanley kubrick. ask yourself one thing how did they get video of the lander landing or taking of from the moon when that would be impossible.... unless its a movie set
Me too, I lived in T. O. at that time and was also 7. It was magic to witness that moment but I am afraid now we will likely live to witness the destruction of planet Earth. Sad.
The music is fantastic... I remember the first trip to the moon... we where on summer holidays in Portugal, saw it in a Café which had a tv set... My father actually met Frank Borman when he toured Europe...
Everyone who was blessed to be a part of these programs no matter how big or small was very lucky. Definitly one of the greatest moments in human history ........
Wow! I was in Vietnam during a rocket attack when this took place but, as a pilot, certainly appreciated what had taken place. It is difficult to believe that the music track on this video is so good and I congratulate you for it! Excellent! Thanks We humans are a goofy lot!
Absolutely one of the finest pieces of editing I’ve ever seen. The addition of the music, the resolution of the video and the bravery of these men are amazing!
This was hands down the BEST space documentary I have ever seen. The music was great!!! I would suggest this to everyone and anyone. I put it on Facebook LOL Thanks to all involved in it's making.
Though an urban planner, I was glued to NASA's space program's advances. I remember vividly NASA's Apollo 11 landing on the moon and the Apollo launches that followed - including the scary problem that occurred on Apollo 13 and its safe return. I was one of the very fortunate ones who were at Cape Kennedy for Apollo 12 and in the grandstand at Cape Kennedy for Apollo 14 liftoffs. Those and the tour before Apollo 14's take off were highlights in my life that I will never forget. I was so struck by the program that for my urban planning Master's thesis, I looked into studies NASA and the Navy had undertaken to see if there were findings applicable to urban problems. That was a heady time for many reasons, one of which was the country's space program. Thank you for this documentary (along with music) from a far better era than our current times in many ways.
Doesn't matter what video I start off with when I go to bed, I always wake up up and this specific video is playing... Lost count of how many times it's happened now.
This is actually a great documentary to listen to when you're sleeping. I did it by accident when I rolled over my phone and those six hours in my sleep.
I'm an old man now, but ever since July 20, 1969, when I was a young man, Neil Armstrong has been a personal hero of mine. Here's a man who reached for the stars; and made it!
@@ShenTreeDid old Neil really seem happy and thrilled to be back to earth. Was he EVER overjoyed and enthusiastic ?? .. NO, he needed better coaching on story telling ...
One of the BEST Documentaries I've seen! It was so inspiring, and exciting to see the growth, and accomplishments made by our astronauts! They were so brave...
This documentary is outstanding! The narrations, especially the astronauts who have been out there are superb as is the musical soundtrack!. I give this show a 10 out of 10!
I remembered all us kids getting out of school and going out to the play yard to watch the rocket with John Glenn go up. We were an hour away but I can still see it in my mind that rocket going up and up from Cape Canaveral
Me too! But I was all the way down in the Keys! And it was such a clear day we could actually see the smoke trail.That night,that's all anybody at the table talked about!
Did you really enjoy the history of NASA how it was put together by a bunch of war criminals and mass murderer's when there at the time were american men doing 20yrs for in prison for possesing 1 ounce of marijuana.
Aside from everything else Science-based, etc. that is simply awesome about this documentary... I just feel compelled to say... that the soundtrack to this documentary is perhaps one of the best I've EVER heard! Great job to Mr. Armstrong, NASA, as well as the 'soundtrack project folks'. 👍👍
The best documentary I've seen in a very long time if not the best. It's well done, the music is perfectly matched and excellent. Awesome job Mr Armstrong. 🌹
I was a 9 year-old English kid in July '69. When 11 landed I went outside with my dad and we looked up at a perfect moon. We ran back in to the TV - then out again and looked at the moon. This went on and on. It was inconceivable to us that, as we looked up, there were two guys actually walking around up there. It was the only time I ever saw my dad cry. It is almost impossible to explain the feeling to anyone born too late to have seen those mind-blowing events. Years later playing with my six-year-old nephew I pointed to the moon I asked him if he understood that men had walked on the surface. He looked up at me and just said "Yeah. I know." and that was it. I didn't try to explain further.
Wow, what can I say, having followed the whole of NASA history since 1961, this has totally blown me away. This has rekindled many amazing memories for me. I am almost 69, but just hope to be around a while longer, so I can see more history created by NASA!
Michael Emery it’s just 60/70’s music. What I grew up on. I still love it. Been dancing to that music since I was two in my white go go boots. Leslye 63
1.03:40 That's the first time I have seen footage of the shuttle package moving forward as well as vertical on take off. The Space Shuttle (like the Boran) is just an amazing work of art
2008 - 12 years ago. Now we have a cab flying around up there financed by a private company, several new businesses pitching in to make the next move forward. No denying that NASA has been pivotal in the inspiration of it all.
Enjoyed the music compelations throughout the NASA space missions. It's fascinating how the missions for Mars brings the concept of which the unity of mankind can be achieved in Mars without prejudices but its hard to accomplish the same concept here on Earth without the fears, divisions and racial tensions that we as nations live under. Thoroughly enjoyed this documentary. The minds of those that made missions possible shows the determination and dedication of all the teams. It proves how the anticipation of what seemed an impossible and difficult task to becoming so achievable. For those down at the ground control station and for those brave spirited people that travelled up into space, took years to perfect. They certainly did go far and beyond and with today's advancement in technologies. The future generations will go on to accomplish more towards another type and level of existence. THE ONLY QUESTION THAT PRESENTS ME TO ASK IS WHAT/WHO GAVE THE CONCEPT OF A SPACE RACE IN THE BEGINNING. APART FROM GOVERNMENT LEADERS ANNOUNCEMENTS?
the topic itself is already very interesting, but this soundtrack just made all the difference to make it so much more interesting, well done NASA, well done (:
Thank you for putting such great music 🎶! What monumental moments. I wasn't born until the late 70's so watching this was amazing for me. I remember being in 6th grade when the Challenger tragedy happened. Even though it was such a terrible accident it started my wanting to know as much as possible about our universe.
In the books of the future, or whatever they have in that era, if the history of the United States is limited to only one page in those books, Neil Armstrong's name will be on that page. He was the perfect choice to land that lunar module the first time.
Who in the world edited this it is amazing. Better than anything i have seen in a very long time. This should be on all streaming platforms! To be united as the terestrials rather than whites and blacks would be a good day indeed. Conquering as members of our spiecies. I hope we make it there.
I wish every documentary used music to show the passage of time & allow those of us who lived through different eras to place events in a larger historical context. In this doc, the pop music of the time brings a sense of how different historical events & eras of space exploration fit into the larger culture. One could do that with the modern Olympics, climbing Mt. Everest, and pretty much any historical trajectory since the first recorded music.
“It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.” ― Neil Armstrong
It was great to see Neil again. He led such an amazing life. Any part of it could have caused his death. He survived it and became a farmer and raised Scotty Dogs. RIP Neil.....
We all watched Apollo 11 Neil Armstrong First Stepped on the moon 1961. Strongly recommend to every one should visit Cape Kennedy. You will find returned capsule, moon rock, spacecraft and other great achievements in Space.
It was actually July 20th 1969 that that Hollywood sci-fi movie came out about the moon landings. Don’t forget about the astronaut suit displayed in a museum where the footprints don’t match the ones filmed in Arizona, oh I mean the “lunar surface”
I remember my parents waking me up for the moon walk when Neil took those famous steps. I remember not seeing anything but snow in a snowstorm. Lol. It was something though, wish our country was still like those times. At least the struggle for excellence.
You might have seen them live but it certainly wasn't from the moon it was filmed half in studio and the other half in nevada i think it was where they went to practice landing on the moon
If this doesn’t make you proud to be American, I don’t know what will. One of my highlights, shaking hands with Neil Armstrong at the James Doohan farewell convention.
The U.S government is actually using a name of a continent to its citizens and country. We are U.S. citizens. Citizens of the United States. The United States is a country but America its not a country America its a continent. The whole entire continent was already named America 269 years way before the United States of America became a nation or even existed. Everyone on the American continent is an American likewise Asia are Asians, Africa are Africans and Europe are Europeans.🤦

Just the music and narrators is the reason I'm watching this again and again.
This documentary is worth watching just for the pop music in the background from each decade that fits so well to the content- well done NASA.
Except they had 1969 music over 1961 film.
What a great documentary. Music mix guys Andrew Gelfman and Gary Westphalen deserve a medal. Truly classic rock connoisseurs.

Fantastic story about an amazing period of time. Interesting it was hosted by Neil Armstrong and was put online the day after his passing.
People forget just how good the 1960's 70's music was. The newly remastered albums are incredible, with the incredible artwork, liner notes, etc.
Sure, but I feel like Nasa astronauts probably didn't attend woodstock. Was this a music video or an astronaut documentary
Yep I was born in 1991 and I love classic music thanks to my parents growing up in that era.
This Documentary has the best soundtrack ever used !!!
You are a hero to the world, you may be gone but Mr Armstrong, you are one of the most important people in human history. You will never be forgotten.

2008 - 12 years ago.
Now we have a cab flying around up there financed by a private company, several new businesses pitching in to make the next move forward. No denying that NASA has been pivotal in the inspiration of it all.
It's nice that we can look at with TH-cam any piece of History we choose
This is a great documentary and the music is something special to behold.
I remember as a small child getting out of school so that we could watch John Glenn's rocket go up. I can still see it in my mind
I remember having parts of Glenn's flight piped into my class at school. I was too far away to see it.
I did too at tropical elementary in merrit island. Where were you? I’ll never forget that day either
Enjoyed the music compelations throughout the NASA space missions.
It's fascinating how the missions for Mars brings the concept of which the unity of mankind can be achieved in Mars without prejudices but its hard to accomplish the same concept here on Earth without the fears, divisions and racial tensions that we as nations live under.
Thoroughly enjoyed this documentary.
The minds of those that made missions possible shows the determination and dedication of all the teams. It proves how the anticipation of what seemed an impossible and difficult task to becoming so achievable. For those down at the ground control station and for those brave spirited people that travelled up into space, took years to perfect. They certainly did go far and beyond and with today's advancement in technologies. The future generations will go on to accomplish more towards another type and level of existence.
THE ONLY QUESTION THAT PRESENTS ME TO ASK IS
WHAT/WHO GAVE THE CONCEPT OF A SPACE RACE IN THE BEGINNING. APART FROM GOVERNMENT LEADERS ANNOUNCEMENTS?
this documentary has the best soundtrack I ever heard
Agreed! Love it! So Groovy lol
Totes! Respect
Moody blues & great classics! 🤙
I wanted to get up and dance, lol.
Good music is used to deceive you more. It's all lies
Wow, this is truly Brilliant!!!!! thank you! All songs from the USA!!!!!
Sorry to point out that in 17:20, it's the famous song, "Here Comes the Sun" by The Beatles
Awesome music soundtrack............it took me back and put me there ........
Thank you ........
Great documentary and loving the soundtrack. Had a seat next to Gene Kranz on a flight a few years ago. Very outgoing and friendly, great guy.
I’ve met him many times I work at the cape. Super cool guy
Thanks for all Neil. R I P
Neil,,, the greatest lier
Mi62Ni Thanks for what?
a great documentary on the early days RIP Neil
the topic itself is already very interesting, but this soundtrack just made all the difference to make it so much more interesting, well done NASA, well done (:
parabens a todos, ao presidente kennedy, pelo trabalho e dedicacao, e sucesso da nasa .
i love neil armstrong, such a great man
Thank you for putting such great music 🎶! What monumental moments. I wasn't born until the late 70's so watching this was amazing for me. I remember being in 6th grade when the Challenger tragedy happened. Even though it was such a terrible accident it started my wanting to know as much as possible about our universe.
Great music ?
Emotions are powerful weapons. All designed to keep you under the great illusion man went to the moon, come on man !!!
In the books of the future, or whatever they have in that era, if the history of the United States is limited to only one page in those books, Neil Armstrong's name will be on that page. He was the perfect choice to land that lunar module the first time.
Nah. He was a PASSENGER. Said so himself. He and his buddy didn't make a big splat on the Moon 'cause they didn't go. Sad, but true.
@@jamesbonde4470 yep you are so right and earth is very flat indeed.
@@jamesbonde4470 You never had a case. Get over it. Stop kicking the ball at the net after the game's long over and everyone went home.
Who in the world edited this it is amazing. Better than anything i have seen in a very long time. This should be on all streaming platforms! To be united as the terestrials rather than whites and blacks would be a good day indeed. Conquering as members of our spiecies. I hope we make it there.
I wish every documentary used music to show the passage of time & allow those of us who lived through different eras to place events in a larger historical context. In this doc, the pop music of the time brings a sense of how different historical events & eras of space exploration fit into the larger culture. One could do that with the modern Olympics, climbing Mt. Everest, and pretty much any historical trajectory since the first recorded music.
“It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.”
― Neil Armstrong
How controlled he was he's probably happy that he's dead now
Still Grooving to the Sixty’s and Seventy’s in 2019, ✌️
Yah the music was awesome! I LOVED it!! Groovy Baby!
@Liam Strick peer pressure. Many of them don't like it deep down inside, but there is such a need to conform.
It was great to see Neil again. He led such an amazing life. Any part of it could have caused his death. He survived it and became a farmer and raised Scotty Dogs. RIP Neil.....
He also became a Professor of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Cincinnati, even though he was a graduate of Purdue University.
Excellent !!! Music the best of those years !!! Congrats !!!
We all watched Apollo 11 Neil Armstrong First Stepped on the moon 1961. Strongly recommend to every one should visit Cape Kennedy. You will find returned capsule, moon rock, spacecraft and other great achievements in Space.
Judy kim by moon rock do you mean petrified wood?? Because that’s what NASA gave to the international Dutch museum...look it up.
It was actually July 20th 1969 that that Hollywood sci-fi movie came out about the moon landings. Don’t forget about the astronaut suit displayed in a museum where the footprints don’t match the ones filmed in Arizona, oh I mean the “lunar surface”
I remember my parents waking me up for the moon walk when Neil took those famous steps. I remember not seeing anything but snow in a snowstorm. Lol. It was something though, wish our country was still like those times. At least the struggle for excellence.
My parents woke us kids up to watch also😁
Very well interesting.. history is Amazing. Thank NASA for sharing. Thank you for all your sacrifices.
I was born in 1957, and saw Niel and Buzz live from the Moon. Man time flies.
Live from a movie set.
You might have seen them live but it certainly wasn't from the moon it was filmed half in studio and the other half in nevada i think it was where they went to practice landing on the moon
@@deepdiggerdaninmazzyspocke7933 yup!! AREA 51 to be exact!
yeah they were broadcasting with a car battery and a calculator circuit board from the moon just for you brain dead lemmings
You. Are. Brainwashed
Awesome soundtrack on this documentary! Amazing.. I am so excited for humans to go back to the moon..
If this doesn’t make you proud to be American, I don’t know what will. One of my highlights, shaking hands with Neil Armstrong at the James Doohan farewell convention.
THE MOON LANDING ITS A BIG LIED. ONE QUESTION FOR EVERYONE IN HERE WHY THEY HAVEN'T BEEN BACK NOW WITH SO MUCH TECHNOLOGY NOWADAYS HUH? EXACTLY
The U.S government is actually using a name of a continent to its citizens and country. We are U.S. citizens. Citizens of the United States. The United States is a country but America its not a country America its a continent. The whole entire continent was already named America 269 years way before the United States of America became a nation or even existed. Everyone on the American continent is an American likewise Asia are Asians, Africa are Africans and Europe are Europeans.🤦
I remember every minute of those days💞
