"You can also tell Jack Schmidt that there's enough boulders around here to fill up Galveston Bay." Love that! And I'll bet Jack the geologist -- who was then slated to land on the moon on Apollo 20 -- was pumped to hear that!
Love hearing proper Naval and Air Force language instead of the sanitised for TV audience "dang" and "shoot"! Tremendous footage of another incredible piece of adventure and bravery of the Apollo pioneers ❤
That was behind the moon. When in contact with Mission Control, it was "dang" and "shoot." But when Gene let out "son of a bitch!" as the ascent stage started to tumble, NASA reprimanded him. The taxpayers were listening, of course. Still, NASA should have cut him some slack -- he and Tom were in a tin can nine miles above the moon and it suddenly loses attitude control. Scariest moment in space travel history up until then.
You DOG!!! This is GREAT!!! Looks like I'm gonna be staying up a bit later than I expected tonight!! I was just telling my daughter that no one can really understand the amount of time, effort and sweat it takes to make a video like this. What a great way to preserve the history. OUTSTANDING WORK!
Outstanding job! An oft-forgotten mission, but critical to the success of Apollo 11. Hope you’ll do the ascent portion. 😊 I love hearing the Hasselblad firing off and the DAC rolling. And the guys getting so excited about boulders! Really gives you a sense of being there. Stafford getting riled up that the color camera doesn’t work for earth rise is great. 😂 Didn’t realize they had so many camera issues! I assume the “hammering” sound is the attitude control thrusters, which is so cool! I wonder if the hum on the tape is the environmental system noise or just electrical noise.
Amazing! I can feel Staffords pain when he discovers that he doesn't have color film for the camera when earthrise happened. What a treat this was! Thanks again Simon!
Really brave and lucky Astronauts: ascent-stage separation was a close-call! And by the way: the LEM with it's silouette remains the all-time favourite spacecraft for me and for many other people. Wonderful coverage, please more!!!✨️
Really great perspective on the key point of the Apollo 10 flight with your composite presentation. Especially loved the candor on the internal recordings. Thanks and keep up the great work!
I was born a week after Apollo 8 splashdown and I will never be over it that I was an infant during Apollo.... except... Go Artemis! Apollo took almost a decade, Artemis will get there. The program has had setbacks, but so did the Apollo program. This time with three people on the lunar surface, and not all of 'em white men like me. Ad astra per aspera. Go Artemis!
Great evolve I had not heard that piece of audio before. It is nice to hear the astronauts being more human in my opinion. Sometimes nasa wanted the astronauts to be too squeaky clean, more like Superman then human beings, I like hearing the human side. Hearing this side of the astronauts should remind us all of what they were, and are today for the most part they are test pilots. And all of them like all of us are very humans. Loved it, can't wait to see what's next, thanks for sharing jim
@@GPT-4_Beta you can imagine my reaction when I set the film at the right speed synched to the audio and the film synched with it perfectly for the earthrise shot? One of those magical moments when you know you are seeing what they saw when they saw it!
Tom Stafford's mother was born in a covered wagon, and he came to within nine miles of the moon. Staggering how things progressed in such a short time. For Tom, this was his ultimate triumph. Tom will always be the 13th person to walk on the moon, as Apollo 10 found out so many things without which Apollo 11 would not have been a success.
I was listening to it for a long time! It's most definitely the reaction control thrust modules on the outside of the LEM, adjusting the position of the spacecraft! I have never heard them that clearly! I know there was some really startling "thumping and moaning sounds" when the CSM and LEM are connected and en route to the moon. As the spacecraft rolls, "thumps" sound as sunlight hits previously shadowed parts of the spacecraft and really ups the temperature on the sunlit surface, making the spacecraft's skin expand and contract. I believe that is why they did the "barbecue roll" all the way to the moon, to ensure that not one side got too hot, and to evenly distribute the radiation.
Great work, Si. Love to sync and the map projection. Do I recognise the base map for the nearside pass. Me thinks it was my map I created for the Apollo 10 Apollo Flight Journal. Keep up the superb work.
Could be,,,I did ask David if it was ok to use....and gave you a credit on the vid! :P It was invaluable!! Glad you like it Robin, always lovely to hear your thoughts and work with you on the finer details
It is my understanding, according to the Apollo 10 mission report, that Snoopy actually missed Landing Site 2, flying 5 miles south due to the influence of mascons. Your animation is wonderful, but you have Snoopy passing to the north. See page 9-13 of the mission report.
That whine is a really constant sound, and I think that with a bit of tinkering with an audio editor, it could be largely removed. Might be worth a try, just for shits and giggles.
@@lunarmodule5 I can understand that, but gawd, it's loud. Maybe you could have one channel be the original, and the other be cleaned. IAC I understand how it might not be that easy to do, especially if the frequency wanders, as it sounds like it might be doing. But that could actually make it a more interesting technical challenge, for someone interested in it.
You're a good command module, Charlie Brown!
You're a good lunar module, Snoopy!
Nicely said!
Loved it, salty language and all. It's Memory Lane in Lunar Orbit to me, though Tom & Geno were looking at US 1.

Lovely work LM-5! Beautiful.

Awesome work on this, as always. Thanks for your dedication to doing this!!

Snoopy took a loop there but they got back safe.
Darn near best one yet!!
The BBC's title for this mission coverage was Apollo 10: Dress Rehearsal for the Moon
Excellent work. Thanks a lot !!!
Always love this flight great job putting this one together
Thanks a lot!
Fantastic work as always!

Is the "THUMP-THUMP" that occasionally occurs the RCS?
If so, that's the first time I'm hearing 'em!

They rejoiced like children when they saw the earthrise, can't blame them I would too.

Ive always wondered about Geno's repeated "we is....". Is that common parlance?
What were the banging noises that could be heard periodically?

@@rgelch ah well...I mucked it up again
@@lunarmodule5 I love your site!!! No worries!!
What is that high-pitched noise?
I think it's the circulation fan
Maybe bleed-through from the 400 Hz AC electrical system?
It reminds me on switching on the electrical power onboard Cessnas and Pipers...the gyros start to turn.
That whine is a really constant sound, and I think that with a bit of tinkering with an audio editor, it could be largely removed. Might be worth a try, just for shits and giggles.

Shame you didn't filter that whine out
Would you want it as close to the real thing as possible, or would you prefer an artistic rendering?
