- Apollo 9 - Countdown and Launch
March 3rd 1969 - Apollo 9 countdown and launch - Onboard are astronauts Jim McDivitt, Rusty Schweickart and Dave Scott.
This is the coverage of the countdown through the liftoff and continuing until just before the separation from the SIVB and Transposition and Docking takes place.
Video starts off with pre-recorded crew breakfast, followed by suit up and walkout to the astro-van at the OC building, transport to the pad and ingress to the command module Gumdrop.
After those sequences there are views of crew training, the assembly of the spacecraft and Saturn V as well as roll-out to pad 39A and pad operations.
There is intermittent "live" coverage from the day, but the full TV record is presented.
Two films from NASA supplement the content, showing the Apollo 9 crew and spacecraft progress before the mission begins.
Extra audio is provided between Jack Kings countdown commentary - this is the pre-mission crew press conference.
Audio from about T-2 minutes include the astro-comm loop with Stoney and the astronauts responding the the Test Conductors prompts on the checklist.
There is 5 minutes of FD Loop from liftoff through staging.
Orbiter and KSP is used when other footage isn't available.
Pre-flight photos are presented at various stages to supplement the footage.
All media is courtesy NASA except the Orbiter/KSP sequences
My thanks to:
Steven Taylor - KSP sequences
Mike Fried - NARA film of the launch
Ed Hengeveld - Pre-mission pictures
Steven Slater - TV coverage of countdown and launch
Johannes Kemmppanen - Documents pertaining to Apollo 9

I was born 2 days earlier!!!
Another winner! Thanks once again for your diligence & craftsmanship & for giving the spotlight to another relatively forgotten, but crucial mission.
I've never seen hardly anything on Nine so this is totally awesome
God yes. This has always been the missing piece of the Apollo program for me. Thank god for LM5
I rushed home from school to watch this launch live on BBC. Launch was at 5pm UK time (we were on permanent summer time then) so I made it home by the skin of my teeth. Dave Scott was (and still is) one of my hero astronauts. Still with us.
I loved permanent summer time, don’t know why they don’t bring it back.
Great to see one of the most overlooked yet crucial missions getting the recognition it deserves!
Thanks for doing this on Apollo 9. Has always been one of the most overlooked flights in the Apollo program in my opinion. Hopefully you will continue the story of 9 in your usual excellent manner. Of course I am also waiting for Apollo 12, can't wait to see what you have done there. This is of course usual outstanding work simon! Thanks again for all you do, great job as always. Jim
I remember watching the launch on BBC1 when I was 11 years old
I was 12 when I watched this. We all knew that the moon landing was going to happen in the very near future. And when Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon, I was celebrating my 13th birthday that very same day. So July 21st was a very special day for me.
Another "stellar" effort, Simon. From my childhood, the voice of Jack King heralded the adventure of space exploration and discovery. I'll never tire of viewing these historic documentations, and I doubt I could ever thank you enough for your efforts in assembling and producing them. I'm confident that your labours in creating these records of the Apollo missions will continue to be a credit to your skills. My thanks, ad infinitum.
Penso tutta gli appassionati e tutta l USA e grata per questi video e del vostro lavoro.
Another excellent compilation from the premier creator of space history records ! I watched the BBC for this launch - and monitored the separation of the LM/CSM via the BBC's blocky "Ceefax" graphics !
Sure made me proud.had every model from Redstone to Apollo 11.the whole world was watching if they had a t.v mostly black and white.was on radio too.U.S.A
Thank you LM5 for all your work!
yes indeed, it was not a sexy mission or an historical mission that the average person will recall, but their mission achieved multiple historical milestones which put us leaps and BOUNDS ahead of the Russians and made the moon landing a solid possibility!
Thanks, Lunarmodule5! I look forward to every new release from you!
Oh goodie, a new Full Mission! Thank you! RIP Jim McDivitt
Amen.
I'm enjoying this as I type, so glad to see Apollo 9 get some love!
Apollo 9 was amazing! It was dress rehearsal for 11. I thank you so much,Simon, for your dedication and .. wow this looks awesome!!!
Another great production from LM5!! Kinda sucks to be an old man now..🙂...but I am very glad I was able to watch this unfold all those years ago. Thanks for bringing this back to life Simon. Also..Jim McDivitt seemed kind of a low key, "aw schucks" kinda guy but was one of a very few astros to always be the Commander. Like Frank Borman and Neil Armstrong from the Next Nine group.
Awesome as usual! One step closer to the landing. I was in 5th grade, and loving it. I don't remember if our teacher had the TV on to watch it in class. Probably, but I have no concrete recollection.
Top video!! Best yet! Nice time coordination, all of the loops synced, visuals synced. Multi view was brilliant! Cheers!!
Outstanding Simon, you’ve done it again.
Tom
Seeing the ISS over my head and listening to this gives me goosebumbs ...
A nice clear view straight over my head ... (22:05 Poland time)
Like the good old times ...
How and where you get this stuff..?no idea, don't care..it's awesome. Those were the days..
Thanks as always for your efforts in making this video. The orchestral background music during the “Aeronautics & Space Update” segment makes for a nice vibe 😁
Bring it! Another gem from the compiler of my favourite content on TH-cam by farrrrrrrrr!
more ''seconds" than you can shake a stick at... 😍
Thanks Simon, Another great production!
LM5?? You do the BEST WORK out there!!! Awesome as a possum with a blossom you are!!! 😉😊🙂
Love all of your work, LM 5! It's a real public service!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ grazie per ricordare un bellissimo tempo.
Thanks for all your efforts in creating this post. Once again, great job!
Apollo 9, the first flight of the complete Apollo Spacecraft, including the Command and Service Module as well as the Lunar Module for an Earth orbit shakedown.
It was originally planned as Apollo 8, but challenges in preparing LM-3 caused the flight to be delayed. There were also reports that Russia’s Zond spacecraft had just flown around the moon carrying several animals aboard, and that likely was the catalyst for the C-Prime decision: Take the Command and Service Module to orbit the Moon alone with a crew aboard, ensuring that the US would be ahead in the race and proving that the CSM can operate around the Moon.
And as a result, the flight of Spider and Gumdrop got bumped down to Apollo 9.
Good job sir. I like the new angle on your simulation. A good tight shot of the engines.
One of my favorite missions. So long, spider
Great footage. Thanks for sharing this 📡🇫🇮
Great job, Simon!
Thanks Matt
Nicely done. Sorry I couldn't be there for the live event.
No worries Wes...hope you liked it
more “firsts” than you can shake a stick at… 😊
It’s absolutely insane that people got on those rockets
Dave Scott 91 (soon to be 92). Rusty Schweickart 88 (Of the 32 flown Apollo astronauts - Apollo 1-17 - only Ken Mattingly was younger than Schweickart)
Really good . At one point we had the Flight Director loop , PAO , and air-ground . As a doctor - I find this giving out heart rates at launch as ludicrous , intrusive and of no concern of the public . I think Jim McDivitt was offered Apollo 8 but demurred in favour of this shakedown . After all , he was a test-pilot who wasn't really doing any test-flying any more - certainly nothing compared to your average jobbing test-pilot - same issue for most of them albeit the test-flying requirement was relaxed by group 3 . Commuting around in a T-38 isn't the same.
I love how the announcers true self came out whenever he said effing storage tanks are full at a minute and 5 second countdown. 😎 His adrenaline was pumping so strong he didn't even realize what he had said.
Video stupendo . Da questa mentalità fede e passione che avevano questi ragazzi per onorare JFK per una grande avventura. Ditelo al Presidente della NASA Da qui bisogna ripartire da questo meraviglioso tempo per tornare sulla Luna e USA grande. Buon lavoro.
Thanks. Nice work!
Omg! Another one!
Sweet thanks!
Thanks!
Thank You Simon for another excellent production, I have a question for the group that has always puzzled me. If Apollo 1 had been successful in January 1967 ,then Apollo 2 with Mc Divitts crew would test the LM in earth orbit , but the LM would not be flight worthy until March of 1969,what was NASA going to do in that two year period betwee flights ?
If the LM isn’t ready,AAP and wet Skylab.
How many people are staring every once in awhile at the bottom left corner out of habit looking for that little box that gives the stats of engine ,speed and altitude.😎
@21:00 Is Shepard _smoking_ ?
I thought the intro text said somewhere it was a 1B but i thought it was a V. I'll check it out at liftoff. They might not have needed a V for this but where would the LEM go on a 1B
39:44 I knew it, I just knew it... Intergalactic space organism contamination.😮
Simon ❤

Noooo😢
I Still don't understand why they had to do the Apollo 10 mission after everything they accomplished on 7, 8, and 9. Seems like such a waste. They already knew by then Congress was considering cutting their budget.
This is when NASA was cool. NASA now is a sellout. NASA means happily helping billionaires escape earth.
