this fascinated my dad. he was born in 1959, so he got to see the moon landing on TV as a kid. when the Columbia broke apart on reentry in 2003, he got really somber and told me about the Apollo 1, 13, and Challenger disasters. when he saw the first successful SpaceX relanding, it brought him to tears. space fascinated him in a way I still don't quite understand. edit: thanks for all the kind words. my dad passed away about 3 years ago now, but he would've loved to talk about his fascination with space and our explorations of it so far.
I feel like in order to even go through with this mission, you’d already have to accept your death because of the likelihood. That mental strength is profound!
This hits because for a little bit of time humanity was together and worked with one another regardless of the differences. Nowadays we fight so much that we forget what we as humans are capable of as a collective.
You're right, and we do, but let me hopefully make you feel just a little bit better with another space related piece of information. The international space station has existed for the last 25 years and despite Russia threatening to pull out during the current war, they didn't actually do so. That makes the ISS a combined work of the space agencies of America, Canada, Europe(as a whole with most major countries), Japan, and Russia. In those 23 years, 279 people from 22 countries- different genders, religions and ethnicities- have lived and worked on this space station (8 people at a time, with others coming to replace them when they leave) and continue to do so to this day.
adorable how you say that when the moon landing was a direct byproduct of the cold war?? which was, you know.. a conflict of people BASED ON their differences??? youre either american OR too young to have this much naivite... not saying that the moon landing isnt a feat we can all awe at, regardless of where we're from. but cmon. come on.

This is one of the most resilient stories I've ever heard. They are amazing. They solved a problem bigger than the world in a couple days. I would have accepted my fate the second the tank blew. I don't even think I would try to take on THAT kind of a problem. I guess that's why I'm not an astronaut. Soooo many different dynamics to be taken into consideration and they conquered every single one of them! Truly truly an amazing story. Just plain incredible.
This was NASA’s finest hour. To me, getting those men home using minute to minute solutions, and cob-job methods calculated on paper with slide rules and human brain power is more impressive than a flawless mission landing on the moon. It goes beyond a step-by-step itinerary, it’s humanity trying to rescue humanity from a frontier dangerous to all living creatures. NASA took on the primal forces of nature and won.
"they wrapped their bodies around him to keep him warm." What a sad and moving image. Agh 😢 The amount of sheer willpower, ingenuity, and camaraderie to stay alive and use every available resource is awe-inspiring.
The thought of endlessly floating in space and moving further and further away from the earth losing oxygen and suffocating is just scary these men were brave and somehow managed to be calm
I remember in 6th grade we had an experiment based on this mission. How they had to listen to build something exactly the way it was being described to them. They gave us some building blocks, a big cardboard shield, and we were split into groups of 4. One person had a diagram that she had to describe to us while being being behind the piece of cardboard. The rest of us had to listen to her instructions, use the blocks, and build what she was describing. I dont think any of the groups managed to successfully do it. I think the teacher did it to show us how difficult the astronaut's task was.
Probably the person describing was horrible. You don’t “explain” directions. You simplify directions, and then simplify the coordination, using visual elements THATS easy to understand. “Shapes” works best.

I am 65 now and was watching this on the news the whole time it was happening from the liftoff to splashdown when the news permitted it to show on TV with my friend who dad in Houston worked for NASA as a electrical engineer there.
I'm old enough to have watched this in real time. My 9th grade science teacher brought a television into the classroom, and we watched the splash down as it happened. The room was packed with people from other classes watching with us. The tension was beyond belief. There were more than a few of us saying prayers. We erupted in cheers and applause when we saw the astronauts. I'll never forget that feeling of pride mixed with relief! It truly was a successful failure.
i laughed while my heart is aching... the mixed emotions of knowing they lived after their suffering. maybe my first time. and that ending statement is perfect. the "succesful failure" is what got me.
Imagine being unable to join the mission to the moon because of contracting measles. Then realizing that darn measle saved your life from perililous disaster.
The fact that we got them home is easily one of the greatest feats humanity has accomplished. The hero’s on the ground and in the spacecraft are insane amounts of brave, smart and focused. What a genuine amazement.
No proof of this so called event ever happening? Usual fake news from NASA! Still no one has gone anywhere near the moon Recently NASA told the world to keep away from the “Landing sites” really why? Could it be that they are not there?
I can only imagine how scary that is but astronauts are literally a different breed to be able to stay calm and not have a panic attack is literally mind blowing good job apollo 13
That's why they are astronauts. You have to be the best of the best at science, you have to be calm and collected under stress, and you have to think fast.
I'm sure they did. That was a truly unprecedented event, and they survived the closest thing to impossible that human brains can comprehend. Nobody else had been ina situation anything remotely like this ever before.. I'm sure they shed a few tears when the capsule opened.
It's so impressive that none of them panicked. I'm sure they were absolutely horrified and thought they were going to die, but they kept calm and powered through. It cut very close, them surviving is one of the most lucky things I have seen. It would be so scary, especially getting to the atmosphere knowing that you make it that far just to burn up in the atmosphere of the earth. They showed incredible determination, mental strength and intelligence.
it seemed they weren't because at the end of the talk he said it really was fun because by the time they were there they had already practiced everything 1000s of times.
I've heard the story of Apollo 13 from the Soviet side, my wife's uncle was the GRU interpreter when things went wrong, and he was watch on, stop on, until they landed. The Soviets offered any and all help to bring them home, and apparently checked all of NASA's calculations for possible errors. They probably had their own reasons for a successful recovery, but the USA and USSR could work together. My wife's uncle changed his attitude to the USA when he heard the genuine anguish and concern of Mission Control.
@Caleb Berman To everyone reading this , quick question to ask you. Has anyone ever told you that the universe is indifferent to you and has no plan in particular for your life, and if you were to die right now , do you know for a fact your matter would decompose and put back into the earth? I want to tell you that general scientific consensus says that all have formed from evolution and thermodynamics may mean that death of anything that creates or consumes energy is inevitable through the constant loss of energy. But mass conservation is absolute , and the universe will continue without you. There is no confession , no decision , no belief , no prayer that will alter this outcome. Well, that is unless I’m wrong.
This is a miraculous story... I can't believe they don't teach us about stuff like this in school. Surely some incredible young scientists' passion would awaken hearing about this at a young age. Thanks for much for sharing
Maybe try to find interesting challenges for yourself? That's what I'm often doing when I'm bored and over time you can gather a lot of experience in a variety of topics.
Just do what you want. Many people were also not doing anything at the time this mission was going on. You’ve probably already done more than most people back then
Ive met and talked with Fred Haise several times, and we’ve almost always talked about the flight. Nowadays he says he’s thought of the whole incident as a learning lesson. He’s mentioned at least twice that he was disappointed that he never made it to the moon, but the man always has a smile on his face when discussing it. Personally, i think he’s just happy to have been part of 13 and a part of history. Got a few photos of me hugging him. Man is the most interesting person I’ve ever met. And theres no words to describe how much respect I have for the man. Altho his lil prank was what made them notice they had a problem. Yknow… after creating one…
Bringing these guys back home was a bigger feat than putting them on the moon would've been. And all that 50 years ago, without a decent computer! Really an incredible rescue!👍❤️
Amazing to think that our cell phones today have more computing power than the computer controlling that ship. Yet they over came and conquered. Nothing but respect for all involved.
They had to throw away the flight manual mid flight and create a new flight manual during the flight to get them home. They had to design, initiate, and run a completely new program to get them home alive.
Ironically, if he hadn't done his little "joke" of stirring the oxygen tanks when he did, they may have exploded later into the mission...at a point that could have made recovery impossible.
Look if you think the moon landing is fake you better get an iq test. Do you think 400 thousand people have the will to lie to the world? Or the stuff left in the moon like the light reflectors, with the right equipment you can see it too. And if you think the iss isnt real get a telescope and search google on when will the iss will appear on the sky
This is still the single greatest feat of engineering ever. It's incredible how the guys on the ground were able to problem solve so quickly and so well.
Excellent narration. Your voice truley conveyed the weight and the imminence of every moment. The story telling was always consistent and it had me on the edge of my seat. You simplified the recordings and made the message clear. Truly well made! Great video u got yourself a new sub🙏🏻
I had the most pleasant surprise, I was in awe of what was happening and didn't read the name subtitle.of the person speaking, I thought it was a nasa employee on earth assisting with the flight coordination, I didn't know these men survived until I saw the most experienced of the three walking in with a smile. Wow what an amazing feat. If anyone needs more inspiration than this, there think box isn't working.
I cant imagine the feeling of being hundreds of thousands of miles away from home in the vacuum of space knowing that you may not make it back. Insane.
Phenomenal! The anxiety I experienced while watching this reviting video was sky high. Such an amazing story, and such a blessing their team was able to help them get back home safely.
The amount of stress the engineers must have experienced surely wasn’t healthy for them, like I can’t imagine having to do the calculations right pretty much first try and knowing that if I get a number wrong it could cause someone to lose their life
A few of the engineers became alcoholics and I understand one committed suicide by driving on to railroad tracks in front of a train. But this was after Apollo 1 burned up on the launch pad.
I remember when this happened. Going to the moon on this particular trip wasn't even broadcast on TV. People seemed to not care about it anymore. I never heard about it til it came on TV that three men on a trip to the moon might very well be lost in space. This got the attention of the whole world. I remember watching with anticipation for their reentry. All eyes around the world on the TV. And oh the happy relief of their safe landing. God answered everyone's prayers 🙏
This was captivating! This story shows how badly the world needs good engineers. The movie 'Apollo 13' with Tom Hanks is so worth the watch if you haven't seen it. I feel like I was with them. Also, as they sling shotted themselves around the dark side of the moon, they had to calculate the trajectory. There was no communication with Houston during that time. Those were long hours. That minute while they were reentering the atmosphere, and they said nothing, was an eternity.
A Successful Failure? More like a prime example of "Improvisation, Adaptation and Overcoming Adversity " through teamwork and rational thought when things go wrong. Sincere respect and admiration to both the Apollo 13 flight crew and the Houston ground crews that "worked the problem" and successfully got those brave men home.
We certainly _can,_ but considering World War 3 and civil warn in the US and Western Europe are looming, I don’t think coming together is in anyone’s interest- at least in our lifetimes.
The issue is a few ppl in power. We have some pretty bad people in power right now. The right people make a big difference. It's not humanity, it's the people who are given the power to control large populations.
I legit thought that they would have died in the debris of space. Instead they made it back. Now that's an epic win. Yeah landing on the moon is all cool and everything, but bringing these peoplehome back safely, against all the odds is epic.
To stay calm and think logically in such a situation is commendable. Humans can be incredible sometimes. The will to live is so strong it's actually incredible, so glad they got home ❤

I cant be the only one that thinks this situation is similar to the submarine, ocean gate thingy. So glad the men on Apollo 13 made it back safe, I was having goosebumps
not even remotely similar beyond the surface level. "stupid man throws all known science and all good sense to the wind to have a rickety ass carbon fiber can visit a historic wreck site we already know how to visit safely and have done so on many occasions" vs "highly qualified team of bright minds and professionals pool all knowledge and cutting edge tech together at the bleeding edge of an endeavor to a distant and alien place upon which precious few have ever tread in order to send some of the world's bravest men on a historic journey". one of these is a farce led by a moronic narcissist who got everyone and himself killed on a mission that anyone with half a braincell knew was inevitably going to fail, and the other is the culmination of human ingenuity, and the strict adherence to safety and science, where a small but devastating error led to a disaster that was yet narrowly averted because everyone involved brought not just their A-game, but their SS-Tier game, which is why everyone survived. "a bunch of guys in a small space floating inside a really hostile big space" is about as similar as these two get. once you get past that, you realize just how many leagues apart they actually are. comparing the oceangate sub's laughably under-engineered, corner-cutting, science-denying construction to literally anything NASA has ever designed or built, is plain silly. does NASA always get it right? obvs not, as this - and the Challenger disaster - prove. but i don't know if oceangate got even one single thing right, apart from i guess wiring the steering correctly so that turning right goes right and turning left goes left, but... pretty sure a sufficiently well taught 8yo could do that, too, so it's not saying much. thankfully, the victims of the oceangate sub's implosion probably never even knew there was a problem before they were all dead, so they didn't have to contemplate their mortality or try to think up solutions to save themselves. not only is it a good thing for the sake of their mental wellbeing, but also because no one aboard would be qualified to problem solve anyway.
Honestly I have so much respect for rocket scientists and the crew members. At a time where we didn't have to computational capacity to run all those calculations they did it by hand. This amazes me and gives me a profound interest in physics
These three are true heros ! And all the ground crew too ! Also, all the prayers definitely helped because so much went wrong and so many lethal things were looming.
Fred Haise is my dad's uncle through marriage. I met him once a few years ago at a family reunion but I remember not wanting to ask him about the mission because I figured he had talked about it enough throughout his life haha. This was an interesting watch, I knew some information about the flight but this really went in depth.
My dad worked with him at Grumman in the early 90s and always didn’t want to ask him about it either, but one evening finally just asked him one question “what was reentry like?” And then Fred spent 2 hours talking to him. He also signed some of his photos for my sister and I. Really nice guy. Definitely ask him about it if you ever see him again. He’s a rockstar

I don't even think I would try to take on THAT kind of a problem. I guess that's why I'm not an astronaut. Soooo many different dynamics to be taken into consideration and they conquered every single one of them! Truly truly an amazing story. Just plain incredible.

This was NASA’s finest hour.
To me, getting those men home using minute to minute solutions, and cob-job methods calculated on paper with slide rules and human brain power is more impressive than a flawless mission landing on the moon. It goes beyond a step-by-step itinerary, it’s humanity trying to rescue humanity from a frontier dangerous to all living creatures. NASA took on the primal forces of nature and won.

I remember in 6th grade we had an experiment based on this mission. How they had to listen to build something exactly the way it was being described to them. They gave us some building blocks, a big cardboard shield, and we were split into groups of 4. One person had a diagram that she had to describe to us while being being behind the piece of cardboard. The rest of us had to listen to her instructions, use the blocks, and build what she was describing. I dont think any of the groups managed to successfully do it.

The Soviets offered any and all help to bring them home, and apparently checked all of NASA's calculations for possible errors.

My wife's uncle changed his attitude to the USA when he heard the genuine anguish and concern of Mission Control.

That ocean gate thingy that was real. ...
@@Peter-w4s1e yes I survived the sub. Immediately after incident I swam up to safety in time before it imploded I don’t know why but the others died
not even remotely similar beyond the surface level. "stupid man throws all known science and all good sense to the wind to have a rickety ass carbon fiber can visit a historic wreck site we already know how to visit safely and have done so on many occasions" vs "highly qualified team of bright minds and professionals pool all knowledge and cutting edge tech together at the bleeding edge of an endeavor to a distant and alien place upon which precious few have ever tread in order to send some of the world's bravest men on a historic journey". one of these is a farce led by a moronic narcissist who got everyone and himself killed on a mission that anyone with half a braincell knew was inevitably going to fail, and the other is the culmination of human ingenuity, and the strict adherence to safety and science, where a small but devastating error led to a disaster that was yet narrowly averted because everyone involved brought not just their A-game, but their SS-Tier game, which is why everyone survived.
"a bunch of guys in a small space floating inside a really hostile big space" is about as similar as these two get. once you get past that, you realize just how many leagues apart they actually are. comparing the oceangate sub's laughably under-engineered, corner-cutting, science-denying construction to literally anything NASA has ever designed or built, is plain silly. does NASA always get it right? obvs not, as this - and the Challenger disaster - prove. but i don't know if oceangate got even one single thing right, apart from i guess wiring the steering correctly so that turning right goes right and turning left goes left, but... pretty sure a sufficiently well taught 8yo could do that, too, so it's not saying much. thankfully, the victims of the oceangate sub's implosion probably never even knew there was a problem before they were all dead, so they didn't have to contemplate their mortality or try to think up solutions to save themselves. not only is it a good thing for the sake of their mental wellbeing, but also because no one aboard would be qualified to problem solve anyway.
@@Peter-w4s1e wrong, the ocean gate was created by aliens
Honestly I have so much respect for rocket scientists and the crew members. At a time where we didn't have to computational capacity to run all those calculations they did it by hand. This amazes me and gives me a profound interest in physics
Hoax I’m afraid 😱
They are superhuman to me
Maybe it should give you a profound interest in science fiction!
@@KhushiSingh-xx8zrit’s all in your mind!
@@KhushiSingh-xx8zr super cunning?
a nice detail was that Russia said that they would help the crew if they found them after splash down.
That’s a new one.
Only to steal the command module and NASA technology
@@nabawi7 can’t something be nice for what
@@nabawi7 just remind who was pioneer in space….
@@nabawi7 NASA started with Hitler's Nazi, so Russians aren't stealing anything since Americans stole it from Germans.

There are a lot of stories like this one from the ‘50’s and ‘60’s and ‘70’s. Some didn’t end as well. It’s nice to see someone still cares. Peace
These three are true heros ! And all the ground crew too ! Also, all the prayers definitely helped because so much went wrong and so many lethal things were looming.
"Left his wife and 3 kids on earth" Where was he supposed to leave them?
Hahah true
Lol seriously
On the moon obviously
He was supposed to bring them to heaven, just as he has promised.
Lol!
Fred Haise is my dad's uncle through marriage. I met him once a few years ago at a family reunion but I remember not wanting to ask him about the mission because I figured he had talked about it enough throughout his life haha. This was an interesting watch, I knew some information about the flight but this really went in depth.
My dad worked with him at Grumman in the early 90s and always didn’t want to ask him about it either, but one evening finally just asked him one question “what was reentry like?” And then Fred spent 2 hours talking to him. He also signed some of his photos for my sister and I. Really nice guy. Definitely ask him about it if you ever see him again. He’s a rockstar
Inhad the pleasure of kicking him in the groin outside of a hot dog stand.
And just as I thought. He couldn’t take it.
He said something along the lines of “ arrrgghhhhj my groin”. And fell to the floor.
What an idiot

And that is Thinking outside the box and you get all these possibilities. There is always a way to improvise
@@csanton3946 Well, there is a limit to how far you can improvise. Imagine if just one of the items needed to create that filter hadn't been there...
But still, it was most certainly a successful failure 🚀 when you are able to get three astronauts home🌎 by thinking outside the box.
Shit movie... 50% of the plot didn't follow the actual event
This is the single most amazing story one can tell their grandchildren. Nothing tops this.
The fact that all of this hardcore engineering and magic is happening just 60 years after the flight of wright brothers with their wooden airplane is crazyyy, human civilization was developing for thousands of years at very slow pace,and suddenly boom, it seems during that era,every year، humannity progressed as much as thousands of years of progress that humans before them made
And we've done so little in the 50+ years since ! Hmmmm...
@@mistert7958 are you being sarcastic?
@@mistert7958 kinda like you!
Progression helps make even more progression
Aliens!
Being lost in space would be terrifying. These 3 men are incredible human beings.

I wish we could have encoded this story with the voyager plaque. Everything about this story is the best of humanity. This is exactly what it means to be human. This story is one of the rare things that actually make me proud to be a part of humanity.
