I met Jim Lovell on the day Apollo 13 opened in Theaters. A day or so prior he attended the Hollywood premier of the movie. He spoke at an awards dinner of the company I worked for at the time. After his astronaut days, Jim got involved with a telecommunications company. The company I worked for eventually purchased Jim’s company. One of Jim’s sales people and Jim were driving to see potential customers. They often used the sales guy’s car. One day the red check engine light lit up on the dash. After a a while, as they got near a town, Jim said to the sales guy, “Hey Smitty, can we stop at a gas station and see what the problem with your engine, please? The sales guy said, “Oh there’s nothing to worry about, the light comes and goes all the time. It’s just a loose connection of a wire. Jim Lovell replied, “Smitty, perhaps you did know this, but a few years ago I had a similar problem with a wire on another vehicle I was ridding in. I’ve learned to take red flashing lights on a console very seriously.” That story was told to me by Smitty and I believe it.
Please never apologize for museum videos!! I absolutely adore museums and love watching your videos of them, since I can't go see them myself! Thank you!
I was a 6th grader, and a space buff, when the Apollo 13 mission happened. I was hanging on to every minute of the flight. Our teacher explained to us exactly what would have to be done to get the crew back alive. A he leveled with us; there were no certainties that it would all be done successfully. But they made it home! What an inspiration.
If any one has noticed in the movie of Apollo 13 ,staring Tom Hanks , Kevin Bacon , Bill Paxton on returning to the carrier deck and stepping down from the helicopter ,the awaiting navel personnel there was actually astronaut James Lowell in person to shack Tom Hanks hand . If anyone wants to know. I've always been into all those Apollo flight and the history of the Saturn V rockets. Im glad to grow up in this generation to see all of this historical events.
Yeah, I did too… I lived in Massapequa LI which was not safe from Bethpage where Grumman Aerospace was (where the LM was built). I was just starting elementary school at the time but I remember seeing a couple of space suits at school science fairs. It was a great time - still remember the Apollo missions and still fascinated about it today.
Indeed a cameo appearance by James Lovell....that was great to see. He is one of three men who went to the Moon twice, but he never walked the surface.
You'll see as well he plays the rank of Captain, which the director didn't choose. The director wanted to make him a general or admiral etc but Jim said no I was only ever a Captain so I'll play a captain. Very humble man!
I was at the KSC viewing area in 1969 when Apollo 11 launched. I could'ntve been more than 5 years old. But I remember it very well. My mom and dad set me on a blanket on top of the car, pointed toward the launch pad and counted down with the radio announcer. The vibrations from that first stage were insane!!!!!
Still awesome, to see up close the 50 year old technology and the magnificent engineers to come up with all of this and its proof of what America can achieve back in the day. I remember seeing those Apollo lift off at the cape in my younger life. All I can say is WOW
I honestly,do not see how they made it to the moon,and back in that tin foil looking contraption..Those guys had nerves made from steel to be able to trust their lives in it in order to be able to walk on the moon..
That's So Awesome ~ I've been an aviation enthusiast (including NASA ect.) for the majority of my life. I've visited the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum in D.C., the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral Fl., the Johnson Space Center in Houston TX., and most importantly Kitty Hawk & Kill Devil Hills in N.C. However I still haven't managed to see everything; this place being one of them. Great Video!
Just to let you know the Cosmosphere is said to have the largest grouping of space artifact from the USSR anywhere outside of Moscow. It is South Central Kansas's true world class exhibit. Cosmosphere also does space artifact restoration and was restoring Liberty Bell 7 after it was raised from the ocean.
I was passing through Hutchinson on my way home from viewing the recent eclipse. Had no idea the museum existed. WOW!!! So glad i was able to visit. Currently undergoing major renovations, so the LM was off limits to the public.
No way I could have ever been an astronaut in the 60's and early 70s. The Mercury, Gemini and Apollo spacecraft, along with the Lunar Module were just too small for me. Reminds me of a sardine can. Kudos to all the men who had the courage to strap themselves in and ride into space back then.
The Cosmosphere is an amazing place to discover. I've visited several times. Of interest, if you have seen the movie Apollo 13, The Cosmophere's Space Works division built the replica apace capsule for the movie!
You should come to Huntsville (AL) we have an entire museum dedicated to space (mainly because nasa is here and we had von braun) we also have a full sized SR-71 in the same area as the museum. Look up the “space and rocket center” in Huntsville, it won’t let you down!
I saw this capsule a very long time ago before long before the movie came out, it was on display at the main airport in France. Old enough to remember the actual event. Move memory, saw the movie when first released, there was a 10ish year old standing in the lobby (my age during the mission, he had a very impressed smile on his face, looks up at me, says "Wouldn't that be cool if that really happened". I looked at a the adult the kid was with, they kinda shurged, I looked at the kid, said, "More or less,that really did happen, when I was about your age" the kids eyes went wide, looks at adult, they nod, a new manned space flight fan is born.
Thank you so much for making this video. I live in Australia, so I would never had known that these amazing things were still around to be seen. If ever things get back to normal, I will be going there..
Thank you for correcting the "Huston, we've HAD a problem." That's the worst fault of the movie. I don't know why they changed the quote, but shame on them.
There were much worse faults. The astronauts never argued, and no one accused Jack Swigert of causing the explosion. That was all invented by Ron Howard. And the makeshift filters were not dreamed up during the mission. That was a contingency plan dating back to Apollo 8. There was plenty more that was distorted to make the movie salable.
@@brianarbenz7206 Quite right. They also weren’t all that surprised at how long the radio blackout lasted because the knew it was reentering much faster than previous flights. They regained contact several minutes before chute deployment rather than when they already on the mains. Still, I did like the movie quite a lot.
I’ve seen Apollo 13 many times it’s a amazing film and at the end when there on the air craft carrier the navy captain in white who’s shakes Tom hanks hand was actually Jim Lovell
Awesome tour of the museum, thank you so much for sharing. Oh maybe here a little advice about glass reflection: If your camera lens have a way to add a filter, you may check what is the diameter and install a polarizing filter with the proper fit. Then, you rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise until the reflection goes away. (Wont work on metallic surface though)
That space food looks so gross. I remember listening to the news coverage on the radio of Apollo 13, when it was happening. I was 13 years old. We were all so scared, they would not make it back. Thank God they did. Love catching your videos, Chris. Big fan.
8:24 Nice - angled so you can see in and behind flat glass! - other museums (Science Museum) take note - this is how to display a space module of any type.
OK, Houston, we've had a problem. ... We've had a Main B B undervolt." The Main B bus undervolt warning light is, if I recall correctly, on the right-side instrument panel towards the bottom, seen at 9:59. The support strut is blocking the view.
Impressive display! I will point out that The Apollo Saturn V Center has the only Space rated Lunar Lander in all of existence. It's Lunar Lander number 9. It was made for Apollo 15 before they knew they were bringing a Lunar Rover so they built a new one and it was left over.
Funny, I just visited the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida the same as you posted this video! BTW that was the Endeavour Shuttle Mockup they had too right! If you come to the Visitor Complex you HAVE to hit the Saturn/Apollo exhibit!
I live in Wichita and I have been to the cosmos field that large number of times I can't even tell you how many times but every time I go I find something new that I didn't see before or somehow miss. They actually say that this cosmos here is the second best. Museum for space outside of The smithsonian
At the Tuscon AZ, PIma Air and Space museum they have the Hollywood unit of the Apollo 13 module that they used for the movie - and another SR-71 blackbird but up on its wheels and with the huge generator used to start it up before takeoff - it's well worth the visit if you're into this sort of thing. I was there in 2012.
I am from Kansas. Hutchinson also has salt mines that are super cool to your. Also, next time you are down by Wichita, stop by Coffeyville, KS just east of Wichita. That is where the infamous Dalton gang met their fate.
To see the actual Apollo 13 capsule that was a life boat for those guys is fantastic . What a thrill . As a family we have watched that movie umpteen times and we are real space nerds . My sons license plate is even SPACE . Thanks Chris awesome vlog 🚀🛰
The "lifeboat" that kept the crew alive while they travelled back from the moon was the Lunar Module (LM). The Command Module (CM), which is the spacecraft in the museum, was disabled and non-functional during most of the trip home. Shortly before reentry the CM was reactivated while the LM was jettisoned. Most of the LM burned up during reentry and the remaining pieces ended up in the Pacific Ocean. The crew were in the CM that parachuted down into the ocean. The Service Module, where the actual explosion occurred, was also jettisoned and eventually it reentered and burned up.
If memory serves.the original Apollo 13 Command Model is the property of NASA and the Smithsonian Institution The Cosmosphere has always had a permanent loan of the Apollo 13 capsule from NASA.owing to the fact that the Cosmosphere's "SpaceWorks" division re-created the CM for the movie Apollo 13. The original Apollo 13 CM was on-loan to Louisville.
If you have time, go back and check the history of this museum. So really bad things happened. Former owners or the like, were involved. Items were taken out of the museum. I'm not sure of all the details.
I saw the Apollo 13 capsule in the museum at Le Bourget, Paris, France. I believe that it ended in France, because in America, it was seen as a bit of an embarrassment. But au contraire! It was such a massive success to overcome the massive challenge that faced them.
Nice video, thanks for posting it. The Cosmosphere is one of the best space program museums for sure. But what race car or race exerts 5g on the driver??
He burned up on re-entry. They hadn’t developed a heat shield yet. They also flew turtles and other animals around the moon but they died during re-entry do to a leak that depressurized the capsule.
Shame they lost both oxygen tanks in the service module. It was used to breathe as well as generate electricity. After the explosion the Command Module was only good for re-entry through the Earths atmosphere. After Apollo 13 future Service Modules carried a third emergency oxygen tank mounted as far away from the main tanks as possible. Also it's hard to ignore how the Apollo Command and Service Modules, and the Lunar Module are quite small when you really look at them. Just to get all that hardware into space in the first place took the Saturn V. Then the upper SIVB stage of the Saturn V set them on course for the Moon. That's something like 80% of the rocket gone, just to get there. And this was all done in the 1960s. Before computers, before digital technology. Hand written mathematics and slide rules. Worlds apart from today where even orbital mechanics has been reduced to a game for children through things like Kerbal Space Program.
They did have computers, early computers. The onboard guidance computers used some of the first integrated circuits mixed with older technologies. The ground based computers used were massive mainframes like the IBM System/360 Model 75
They actually have two slide rules on display. One is Werner Von Braun's, the other belonged to his Soviet adversary during the space race. Pretty cool to see them.
