Two measures of Neil Armstrong's greatness. His immense abilities as a pilot, and his decision to finish out the day doing paperwork, purely because there was paperwork to be done.
That ejection seat put a 20+ G load on Neil's spine. He landed an inch shorter due to spinal compression. I'm surprised he was allowed to go back to his desk, and I wonder if any of the work he did was worth it. He was probably "whipped and hurting."

I could never understand why these flights were not seen more as a milestone in the preparation of astronaunts for a moon landing. Surely the most critical phase of the mission.

-We have invented a flying machine that's almost uncontrollable and nobody has ever flown. -Do I have a parachute at least? -Yeah, but it doesn't slow you down enough and you are gonna hit ground hard. -Excellent.
You silly one. If it had worked as meant, There would have been No problems with controlling it.And, the parechute was the same type as the fighterpilots use.
The current ejection seat is capable of ejecting fully inverted at 50 feet, righting itself, taking the occupant up to around 200 feet, and deploying the chute. The problem was the pilot would already be dead, as the G-forces involved in the seat maneuver at only 50 feet were unsurvivable. IIRC, the seat's guidance computer was detuned to be able to eject fully inverted at 150 feet subjecting the pilot to a survivable level of G-force.
The crash investigation showed that a loss of helium pressure caused depletion of the hydrogen peroxide used for the reserve attitude thrusters. The vehicle’s instrumentation did not provide adequate warning about the adverse situation. Engineers corrected the problems before flights resumed in October.
The amount of pressure would have spilt out the herniated disc in my lower back like jam. I think I would have ended up in an operating theatre instead of casually walking back to the office to do some paperwork.

Skyprince27 I know right. spent countless hours playing with it growing up. Tie it to a tree and stand in it and the parachute tosses you around like a rag doll. So much fun.
That was little cost and added to the quality of training. That gray surface makes it very hard to properly gauge distances and scale. And that's something the pilot would need to be aware of.

During the Gemini 8 mission a stuck thruster incident could have killed Neil and Dave Scott. Armstrong stayed cool spinning 720 degrees per second and saved the day. Ice water for blood.
The LEM was designed to operate in space and the 1/6 gravity lunar environment. To work successfully in the Earth's environment, it would've needed a completely different design.

So we can think that humans are now so used to put a feet on the Moon that we have to give honours to only the first one. Who was the last man which put his feet on the Moon? I would like to see a little bit of recognition to this brave man, where is he? I don't see him in the news, imagine the scene, the first and the last crew members still alive reunited on stage, where? What? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😋
@@anridapu and why is he not in the media, he and the two dozen, more or less, heroes. They don't turn up in the news like the first astronauts of the Apollo 11. I reckon I haven't read many thing about all the manned spacecraft that supposedly landed there. As I think it all was a big lie. In Spain we have ours too. For instance, the terrorist attacks of 2004 11th of March. These were a plot to take the right party out of the government.
No, the LM wasn't structurally designed to land its mass in earth's gravity. The stress on the structure would have been to high so they would have had to create a complex system of offsetting the weight. It just wasn't an efficient way to do it.
Also the first test of landing the LM was Apollo 11. Yes, that momentous mission was itself a test flight. The whole program was conducted to flight test discipline and procedures. The tests of the vehicle and its component parts on the ground, followed by tests in Low Earth Orbit and Lunar Orbit, gave NASA the confidence that they were ready to move to the next part of the test program - landing on the Moon!
Interestingly, the LLTV seen here was an adaptation of the LLRV, which was designed and built BEFORE the lunar orbit rendezvous option was decided on. And when a trainer was needed, well the LLRV just needed some adjustments.
So was the fuel for the lunar modules ascent back to the command module isolated from the fuel supply that came close to exhaustion on the descent, meaning where there two separate fuel supplies?
The crash investigation showed that a loss of helium pressure caused depletion of the hydrogen peroxide used for the reserve attitude thrusters. The vehicle’s instrumentation did not provide adequate warning about the adverse situation. Engineers corrected the problems before flights resumed in October.
pls help me to understand, at 2:13 you can see a man sitting down, but when Neil escapes at 1:27 he is ejected from the center of the vehicle. So what happened to the sitting man?
@@YDDES I give you the fact. Nasa does not know how to send even a rover to the moon. Show me if they are sending anything? What are they sending in 2024? Just waiting for another change of president?
What conspiracy theorists have never been able to answer, weirdly enough : - the Saturn V was capable of launching the apollo stack to the moon, along with the fuel needed to bring the astronauts back. Designing this craft was very expensive. What exactly would have been the point of designing a craft capable of making the trip, and only then decide to fake the whole endeavor?
vj j nope,a parachute is an aerodynamic break....'aero'....as in air,the thinner the air the faster you fall,felix baumgartner fell a 1000km/h in the thin air at his redbull recordflight.
A parachute doesn't work on the moon. Had they lost control while descending to the lunar surface, they likely would have died. However, this is a training vehicle operating in earth's atmosphere. It makes no sense to replicate the danger of a lunar landing.
If a real jet engine was blasting downward to cushion the landing on the moon I think the moon dust will still be settling today because of the huge dust cloud it would have caused.
Jef ier There would have been no dust cloud. You can tell by the many footprints, especially the close ups, that the moon's surface was very moist, almost like mud. If it was dry and dusty we would be not seeing those beautiful footprints.
Jet engines don't work in vacuums, the actual LM used a hypergolic rocket engine (and RCS thrusters for attitude controls). And for the same reason, ie it being a vacuum, there would be no dust "cloud". Any particle, no matter how small, falls just as fast as anything else, so very fine particles would fall faster than on earth.
@@bigpardner Just no, it was not moist. Regolith, not being subject to the same sort of erosion as on earth, is extremely jagged (problematicly so for long term habitation) and thus sticks together very well without any moisture present.
Employers should just demand employees work for free. They are not even risking their lives, they are just doing mindless tasks while the Chinese manufacturer everything
Ejection seats put up to 30g's of compression on your spine. A six foot guy walks away 5"-11" I'd bet Neil was whipped and hurting after landing. Any work he did later that afternoon might not have been too productive.
William Rackley It makes perfect sense if you bothered to look at the practical science of how it was actually done. It seems you prefer being an armchair critic.
Roland Go no they did not fly to the moon in that.........watch the whole documentairy about it.don't ask difficult questions on youtube,you will only get dumb answers
I’m impressed that the lander was powerful enough to fly within Earth’s atmosphere. I thought it was only designed with enough power to land on/take off from the moon which has about 1/6th the gravity of Earth and no air resistance
Rohan Bhatt You might want to do some research and learn about the subject before commenting. This process can help prevent you sounding like a dill on social media.

No, the LM wasn't structurally designed to land its mass in earth's gravity. The stress on the structure would have been to high so they would have had to create a complex system of offsetting the weight. It just wasn't an efficient way to do it.
Also the first test of landing the LM was Apollo 11. Yes, that momentous mission was itself a test flight. The whole program was conducted to flight test discipline and procedures.
The tests of the vehicle and its component parts on the ground, followed by tests in Low Earth Orbit and Lunar Orbit, gave NASA the confidence that they were ready to move to the next part of the test program - landing on the Moon!
The Right Stuff.
Interestingly, the LLTV seen here was an adaptation of the LLRV, which was designed and built BEFORE the lunar orbit rendezvous option was decided on. And when a trainer was needed, well the LLRV just needed some adjustments.
it was called the LLRV during test pilot evaluations, when it was transferred for astronaut training it was designated LLTV
amazing quality upload
1:25 when saw it reach almost a 90 degree angle he was like 'na I'm out'
7 times he escaped death.
His reactions to eject just an incredible man
Honey, how was work?
Good, didnt die but I am hungry now of all the paper work
So was the fuel for the lunar modules ascent back to the command module isolated from the fuel supply that came close to exhaustion on the descent, meaning where there two separate fuel supplies?
Yes, the lander was the lower part of the LM, left behind when the ascent stage left the moon.
Yep...totally separate!
Of course. The lunar landet had 2 separate stages. One for landning, one for lift off.
Pretty sure it was too windy for a flying bedstead.
The crash investigation showed that a loss of helium pressure caused depletion of the hydrogen peroxide used for the reserve attitude thrusters. The vehicle’s instrumentation did not provide adequate warning about the adverse situation. Engineers corrected the problems before flights resumed in October.
It wasn’t the wind causing the crash.
Armstrong should be on the $1 bill.
WHAT A GUY'S GUY HE WAS!!
great!! a go pro in the 70s!!
Any footage of the Lunar Module actually working?
Nope cause they never got it reliable enough to land.

If you are asking about the Lunar Landing Training Vehicle, yes there is a bunch of videos of it flying and landing.
@@dansv1 link or you're all talk
I gave you the link.
pls help me to understand, at 2:13 you can see a man sitting down, but when Neil escapes at 1:27 he is ejected from the center of the vehicle. So what happened to the sitting man?
What the heck are you on about?
@@pilotboy2612 Neil is sitting on the side, but the ejection is in the middle.
They built several LLRV’s and LLTV’s and not all were built the same way.

Do you know how many flights were done in these craft? Of course you don't. You don't actually do any "research", do you?
neil had yet to be assigned to apollo 11 yet he was the on the back up crew for Jim McDivitt's apollo 8 crew crew
Just another day on the job.
Why woud you clock out early and go home if you weren't injured? You can't clock out when you are on the moon.
Moon is made from cheese 🧀. That is the truth!
What colour cheese? ??

@@YDDES Show me the video that Nasa successfully landed, even practice. None.
@@YDDES I give you the fact. Nasa does not know how to send even a rover to the moon. Show me if they are sending anything? What are they sending in 2024? Just waiting for another change of president?
What conspiracy theorists have never been able to answer, weirdly enough :
- the Saturn V was capable of launching the apollo stack to the moon, along with the fuel needed to bring the astronauts back. Designing this craft was very expensive. What exactly would have been the point of designing a craft capable of making the trip, and only then decide to fake the whole endeavor?
Moon doesn't have atmosphere, does parachute still works on Moon?
Vj j. Why would they need parachutes on Moon? This was just a test rig, meant to fly only on Earth.
@@YDDES I was asking generally.. and I was thinking may be they had ejector on lunar module
No reason to have ejector seats, since they couldn’t survive on Moon any length of time. The ascent stage was their ”ejector seat”.
vj j nope,a parachute is an aerodynamic break....'aero'....as in air,the thinner the air the faster you fall,felix baumgartner fell a 1000km/h in the thin air at his redbull recordflight.
A parachute doesn't work on the moon. Had they lost control while descending to the lunar surface, they likely would have died.
However, this is a training vehicle operating in earth's atmosphere. It makes no sense to replicate the danger of a lunar landing.
If a real jet engine was blasting downward to cushion the landing on the moon I think the moon dust will still be settling today because of the huge dust cloud it would have caused.
Jef ier There would have been no dust cloud. You can tell by the many footprints, especially the close ups, that the moon's surface was very moist, almost like mud. If it was dry and dusty we would be not seeing those beautiful footprints.
@@bigpardner Ja ja ja, la luna es tan seca como la mojama...ni gota de agua.
jose luis Fernandez Bien que reconozcas mi broma.
Jet engines don't work in vacuums, the actual LM used a hypergolic rocket engine (and RCS thrusters for attitude controls). And for the same reason, ie it being a vacuum, there would be no dust "cloud". Any particle, no matter how small, falls just as fast as anything else, so very fine particles would fall faster than on earth.
@@bigpardner Just no, it was not moist. Regolith, not being subject to the same sort of erosion as on earth, is extremely jagged (problematicly so for long term habitation) and thus sticks together very well without any moisture present.
Lonnie Zamora UFO 🛸 case was a lunar module. PROBABLY a Cash-Landrum case as well.
Employers should show this to employees trying to call in for work.

Ejection seats put up to 30g's of compression on your spine. A six foot guy walks away 5"-11" I'd bet Neil was whipped and hurting after landing. Any work he did later that afternoon might not have been too productive.

The best way to glorify a lie is to publish such videos and words of bravery
No "lie" is glorified here.
However the actual Moon landing by Armstrong and Aldrin with Apollo 11 deserve applause.
Neil was the man!
Too badthey never made it to the moon. Instead had a nice Disney vacation
William Rackley Too badyou lack critical thinking skills
@@anridapu and they did it all on the power of a 70s calculator. Makes sense
William Rackley It makes perfect sense if you bothered to look at the practical science of how it was actually done. It seems you prefer being an armchair critic.
Oh my God 🙌🙌🙌🙌 what a brave man
This vehicle never worked. And the instable LEM proved never the ability to fly. Miserable propaganda vid.
You are ignorant as always. The 5 simulators together flew several hundred times, training all astronaut pilots. 2 still exist in museums.
@@YDDES You are ignorant as always. The LEM flew never on earth, even not in a light-version.
Technically @@hajoos.8360 you are correct! The LEM never flew _on_ _earth_ .
HaJo OS.
And submarines are never testet in the air. Guess why?
The fact that most test flights were successful disproves your claim.

Landed never moon man
Ha ha ha
He didn't let it rent any space in his brilliant brain.
Good thing he didn't really have to land on the moon.
I’m impressed that the lander was powerful enough to fly within Earth’s atmosphere. I thought it was only designed with enough power to land on/take off from the moon which has about 1/6th the gravity of Earth and no air resistance
The real landers of course never flew on Earth. These were just Astronaut training vehicles. 5 were built, 2 remain in museums.

@@anridapu do some observation and see how there’s wind blowing the flag in space. How this lunar landing vehicle left no crater from the jet engine when landing on the moon. How they had Instagram live back then to broadcast the landing to the news.
