Apollo 11 Mission: The First Moon Landing!
Humanity experienced an important event that changed the scientific reality forever. Join me as I tell you about a mission that was written in History! The Apollo 11 mission. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1?

Kennedy had projected to the world. And so it happened. On July 16, 1969, the Saturn V rocket took off from the Kennedy amputee, transporting three astronauts to the most dangerous mission that mankind attempted until then. The mission is known as Apollo 11. The first landing on the lunar surface was about to happen. At the top of the rocket was the command module named Columbia. Underneath it was the service module that had the fuel. Above it was the Eagle Lunar Module which is the one that would land on the lunar surface. From these three vehicles, only Columbia would return to earth. During the voyage the crew of the space consisted of three astronauts: Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins. All three of them were 39-year-old, experienced fighter pilots and tested astronauts.

Neil Armstrong! He was an aircraft pilot in the Navy Air Force from 1947 to 1952, and he participated in the Korean War by flying in 78 missions on a Grumman F9F-2 Panther plane. After he studied aeronautics, he joined the NASA in 1955 and became one of the best aircraft testers in the world. In 1966 he was captain of the Gemini 8 mission, during which two spacecraft were first connected to space. The mission almost ended in tragedy when the rocket connected to Gemini, began to spin uncontrollably around its transverse axis, but despite the dizziness due to the rotation, Armstrong managed with calm manipulations to disconnect Gemini. The second one, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin! Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin was also a veteran pilot, whose responsibility was to connect spacecraft to orbit. He proved his worth on The Gemini 12 flight when he carried out all the extremely complex calculations required when Gemini's radar malfunctioned. Initially, Aldrin was supposed to be the first man on the Moon, but eventually NASA decided that the honor rightfully belongs to Armstrong as captain of the spacecraft. Last but not Least, Michael Collins. Michael Collins was also a tested pilot. He took part in the Gemini 10 flight and He is the man who would remain orbiting the Moon, while his two colleagues would make history on its surface. Let’s give some details of the “Journey” Firstly we need to mention further information about the “Eagle”. The Eagle vehicle was the first genuine spacecraft, a vehicle completely free from the aerodynamic limitations of transit through the Earth's atmosphere. The “Moon car” looked like no other flying vehicle. The only limitation was weight, as, according to NASA calculations, each tonne of weight required three tons of fuel to be launched. The journey lasted three days and finally the spacecraft was in orbit around the Moon on July 19, 1969. July 20, 1969 is a landmark date for the history of mankind, as for the first time a human being set foot on another planet, named as the Moon. It was really important to find a smooth area to land as otherwise they wouldn’t be able to return. So they did. A smooth and flat area had been selected as a landing site. It is named Mare Tranquillitatis.But it didn't take long for problems to be noticed. The eagle's computer got some error messages and because of the damage it couldn't process the data it received, quickly enough. From this point, the mission was in danger. But later on, the control center in Houghton gave the green light for the continuation of the mission, judging that the problem was not significant enough to cause further problems. However, when the eagle reached a suitable altitude, Armstrong looked and could see that he was heading automatically towards a rocky area. If it landed in a rocky area, then it would be impossible to take off and return to earth and the two explorers would stay on the surface of the satellite forever. #InsaneCuriosity #ToTheMoon #MoonLanding
