- The 2011 John H. Glenn lecture featured a moderated conversation with two of NASA's original Mercury astronauts: John Glenn and Scott Carpenter. Fifty years after the first human spaceflights, they shared stories about their selection as astronauts, the first human spaceflights, and their careers in and out of spaceflight. This lecture was presented in the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum's Lockheed Martin IMAX(r) Theater on June 23, 2011.
Glenn is 89 here. It's absolutely amazing how sharp he was at that age, recalling technical aspects of the Mercury program from 50 years before.
GOD=7_4, 7/4=July 4th or 7 April 30 AD when Jesus(74=J10+E5+S19+U21+S19) the Jewish(74) Messiah(74) was nailed on(74) the Cross(74=C3+R18+O15+S19+S19).
Freemasons led NASA and they encoded GOD=7_4 in many ways: 7 Mercury Astronauts & 4 weren't Air Force/4 weren't Navy. Apollo 7 was the first manned Apollo & 4 missions later, Apollo 11 was the first to land on Moon at 4:17 EDT. Apollo 13 miraculously returned to Earth on 4/17. Alan(4 letters) B.(1) Shepard(7), John(4) F.(1) Kennedy(7), Yuri(4) A.(1) Gagarin(7). Jesus' real Birthday was 4/17/6 BC. Space Shuttle held 7 crew/4 more than previous Apollo. Orion holds 4 astronauts.
Neil Armstrong = kneel arm strong. Buzz Aldrin is a 33rd Degree Mason(47) and he took communion after landing on the Moon and before walking on it.
GOD=7_4 Theory at GOD704.fandom.com & Seal #2 at 7seals.blogspot.com . Only the returned Christ & Albert Einstein reincarnated could produce that. It's triggered The Apocalypse/Revelation which is NOT the 'end of the world'. COVID-19 is part of Seal #4: S=19 (18.6) Theory.
@@BradWatsonMiami did you eat those magic shrooms on your pizza?
RIP to both of them. Can't believe that such important hero's are not living anymore. In fact all the Mercury astronauts are past away sadly. God bless them
"John Glenn born 1921" was part of Seal #3: Unified String Theory: 21 or 19 Dimensions & Aspects of Spacetime - Physics' 'Theory of 'Everything'. See 7seals.blogspot.com - only the returned Christ & Albert Einstein reincarnated could produce that. It's triggered The Apocalypse/Revelation which is NOT the 'end of the world'. COVID-19 was added to Seal #4: S=19 (18.6) Theory.
But now, i see more videos about Apollo 11, 13 and Gene Kranz, the Blackbird SR-71 Pilots and more, love it also to see Adam Savage (from Mythbusters) is visiting those places on his own channel (Tested its called).
Yes, it’s sad they’re no longer w/us, but thankfully we have things like this to keep their Stories & Legacy alive.
Makes me wanna cry that this has only 7460 views since June 2011. While all kinds of unimportant nonsensical human manure easily surpasses millions in here. Watch this if you are the tiniest bit of a world-patriot. It contains at least two, of the worlds biggest pioneers and heroes.
Absolutely. Such an amazing thing we have an interview with two heroes. Those guys were pioneers. They ventured in the unknown

We are a world of the 10 second attention span. Tik-Tok is more relevant to the new generation now.
It's sad how Our Country and society has become a joke. People aren't interested in the facts and amazing history anymore. Today's people are just interested in idiot people that dance on stage look pretty and have no talent.
A lot of people have cottoned on the fact that they may not have went.
That could be the reason.
I wish you could like this twice. Or ten times.
It was so wonderful to hear what they had to say, and I love the humorous observations they made about the training.. What amazing men..
Two wonderful senior citizens. Clear logical thinkers and sharp as a tack.
I guess that's what got them in to space in the first place
Godspeed Scott Carpenter and long live John Glenn
2020 - still fantastic
All the old man jokes John Glenn had to take and he outlived them all.
Yes! Interesting that during testing for astronaut selection, Glenn and Carpenter were the top in regards to physical fitness. Fitting that they lived the longest.
in an era where a guy who rides a bike in france is a hero,it really brings a tear to my eye to see two (now 1. scott just passed) whats funny is how much they did before mercury! and never forget all those at Edwards air base! yeager,crossfield,white!!!!
Scott Carpenter was one of the more ethereal, sentient, multi-dimensional and interesting of the seven. If I had an opportunity to have dinner with any of the seven Mercury astronauts, it would have been Carpenter. R.I.P.
Me too.
Wow what a great show, 2 legends talking so openly like they are in my living room, thanks so much for the upload .
Chemical engineer and NASA’s oldest active astronot at age 62, Don Petitt says, “I’d
go to the moon in a nanosecond. The problem is we don’t have the
technology to do that anymore. We used to but we destroyed that
technology and it’s a painful process to build it back again.”
Utterly brilliant, thankyou
Was a pleasure to watch this video! Thank you very much for sharing! 😃👍
Sad. All the Mercury 7 are now gone, as are almost half of the Gemini and several of the Apollo Astronauts including Neil Armstrong and Gene Cernan. We are losing our heroes, and more sadly, we don't have new ones.
Heroes! Thank you for uploading.
"60 years ago in 1961" - 70 years now. 😬 How quickly time passes.
Ooops! 2031 will be 70 years.
My heros. Mercury 7 Astronauts.
Well all I can add is: How lucky to be born at just the right time. To be part of the "Right Stuff".

I do agree the price we pay to get astros to ISS and back is ridiculous. However the shuttle was old old tech and old hardware. We have the tech now to build a much better and much more efficient system for orbit.
RIP to the Mercury astronauts. They were the best of the best, "The Right Stuff."
Thanks, very educational. Such brave men
Legends!
awesome stuff
Two true American heroes ....
Great!
I wonder if Armstrong had any use of the MASTIFF training, when the Gemini 8 started to spin? Does anyone know if he even trained on that equipment? Thanks for the historic insight in the video.
I wish I could have met them
Couldn't agree more, toreibjo. So sad.
great person！
32:12 The big size of the R-7 compared with the Atlas was due to an over-estimate by Andrei Sakharov of the mass of the H-bomb.
Interesting.
"Were competing with Archie and Jughead"
Heroes.
The education thing is the part that gets me, I see kids in the western world hate school and I see kids in the east who go to school and then 5 hours a day in after school education. These two guys were part of the first seven hero's who have paved the way, but the only way I see NASA still ruling is by doing what they did to get these two guys into space..............import the knowledge
You talk about education , but you think the plural of hero is hero's. What irony, Assuming that you actually went to school, when were you taught to insert an apostrophe in any plural? Never, and yet here you are doing it, as many semi-literate people do. Before you promote the idea of importing knowledge, you need to think about doing it yourself,starting with knowledge of grammar.
@@wildevixen7753 what you need is knowledge in the area of computer science. It is most likely that his web browser inserted the apostrophe automatically. It would resist your effort to remove it too. Often it's ignored as you are typing two words ahead by the time you notice. So don't be such a troll about grammar.
@@scottwheeler2494 You have missed my point entirely, which tends to confirm what I said about falling standards. Calling someone a troll just because they seek to improve those standards is an easy avoidance measure, but it does not conceal your fundamental problem. I imagine you call a lot of people trolls. As for your opening comment, if you think computer science is the cause of semi-literacy, your problem is even greater.
@@wildevixen7753I didn't fail to understand: I just rejected your point. Lecturing someone on something that could also be attributed to something else, assuming their ignorance, in a somewhat snide manner is classic troll behavior. Now, if I am wrong in your intentions, I am sorry I misunderstood. I obviously missed your point. But perhaps it could have been said in a different manner so that I could have grasped your message. Instead it was overwhelmed by the tone. That is all.
Now, I agree with the statement that standards have fell in the last few decades. I doubt seriously that diagramming sentences is done in English classes now - they are too busy shoving woke content in their brains. The basics are missing in the curriculum. So that when a browser inserts an apostrophe creating a contraction, the user glides over the error knowing the reader will likely ignore the error. It's a pedantic issue at best given the conversational nature of a TH-cam comment. I was educated in a very different manner 60 years ago. I have forgotten most of what I once knew by heart. Sadly that is what time does to all of us. So don't assume my ignorance thinking that it proves your point. Your bias is showing as the kids say nowadays.
@@wildevixen7753 Also, you are the first person I have called a troll in several years. I make few comments outside of my regular groups. But your comment stood out. Its tone stood out.
R.I.P. Scott
Just rewatched The Right Stuff...great movie, but pales in comparison to hearing these Great American Heroes speak. God Bless ALL of our heroes. May they rest in peace and may we honor their achievements and sacrifice.
The movie or the new series?
John Glenn should have been a President.
I think Ed White experienced “the breakaway effect.” He was coaxed inside several times after about 20 minutes EVA, until he was sternly ordered inside.
16 g's. Gee !!
Scott Carpenter, the coolest of cucumbers. When told that his heat shield may have become detached (Meaning he's about to burn up entering the atmosphere) he calmly stated "Oh my, I hope not".
It was actually Glenn who was told by Shepard just before blackout that the reason he was told to hold onto the Retropack was because there was a possibility the Heat Shield was loose. Carpenter, though, is the astronaut who thought he saw a flaming piece come off of the tower (top of the capsule) during re-entry. At that point, he said 'Ohhhh I hope not....."
True men ahead of their time in cold war early space race
52:39 Alan Shepard looks like Ringo Starr in this image.
I remember the Mercury missions, and poring over the newspaper clippings I’d pasted in my ‘Space’ album. So I’m delighted that my friend Lauren Oliver is making a movie about a fictional Mercury astronaut. And no digital nonsense - it will be shot on 35mm b/w FILM.
“The story begins hours away from the last rocket launch of the Mercury era--1963. NASA discovers that Fletcher is hiding something: a critical health problem that violates every medical regulation known. The launch is held up while Fletcher stews in his capsule and the flight surgeon on the ground tries to make connections that will shut down the astronaut's dreams for good. Will the dreamer triumph against the dreamless?”
While the characters are fictional, the setting is real and meticulously researched. They’ve even gotten help from someone who was actually there: Rene Carpenter, the widow of Project Mercury astronaut Scott Carpenter. I recently met two of the talented and charming actors, and I’m privileged to have read the script - it’s splendid. Please Google: Kickstarter T-minus.
American Heroes.
If you could distribute the g-forces around you like rotate you can withstand more g-forces I never knew anybody survive 16 G's except fighter pilots who caught ourselves still was able to fight their way out
RIP
Clap if you have it!😳
“The chief of naval operations is two steps above God”
LOL
Pour cold water in your ears, dip your feet in ice water and take a spin on a centrifuge ... Welcome to NASA , you are now an astronaut.. 👍😁
I wonder if they ever thought they should be 'somewhere else, flying something else.....'..??
Would love to hear John Glenn’s views of politics today and his opinion of his party in 2022?
he'd probably be more aghast at the republican party, though probably saddened by how dems have just went to the right to fill in the gap as the gop has receded more and more toward the people he fought in wwii
8:40 Begin here.
This is the reason you had to have a good coronary system and heart, if there's any leaks in your valves are bad teeth in your mouth because plaques or anything like this so you know what most astronauts and Pilots they very scared when they go see the doctor, you have to be pressure tested like a Breitling
.
so 2gs for 6 hours kills a monkey
Made me laugh 🤣
A lot of the images are clearly mirror imaged.
Very sloppy.
If John Glenn was alive today, he would be a Republican senator!
Keep politics out of this
I doubt it, not with today’s screwed up Senate.
They never set foot on the moon surface..
Correct. These are Mercury astronauts that were not involved in Apollo you buffoon.
Alan Shepard did though.
Well Communism must have won to look at the USA now. Lets Go Brandon !
Glenn was a democrat senator from Ohio which is not exactly a lefty haven. Thus I would have to conclude as with McPain he really would not have been elected without some chicanery. But compared with what we have now at least the guy took his own god damned risks with his life.
John Glenn. The most boring person ever. lol
And what have you done to help protect the united states, or to advance the knowledge of all humanity?. You do represent your name to the MAX.
These men (including the rest of the Mercury 7) were highly overrated. I will say though that Scott Carpenter did provide some variety to an otherwise somewhat bland group.
people like you are highly overrated. what have you accomplished that would compare to what they did?
Buried the bodies of the men I killed because they pissed me off. Like you.
Scottrdhrdsn - you are an idiot of the first order
@@Scottrchrdsn Tough guy with a keyboard!!!!
I don't believe they went.
