Why Astronauts Were Almost Trapped On The Moon Forever (Apollo 11 Landing)

The Apollo 11 mission to the moon is one of the most intense stories of survival. The whole trip was nearly a disaster, and somehow the astronauts managed to make their way back to earth and not get trapped on the moon or die in space! Watch here to see how they made it out alive!

... and yet they came back! 💪🏻 But it sure wasn't easy looking back at it now...

A thin line between an extreme success and a devastating disaster.

Fun Fact: the phone you're currently holding, has way more power than the computers used to send Apollo mission to the moon.

Me as a kid: I will become an astronaut.

Me now: Never mind

[kingmarsden]

Can't believe there is still people who think we've never been to the moon, it happened. Be proud, its mankind's greatest feat.

[HaXD]

Computer: ERROR
Me: What error?
Computer: UNKNOWN ERROR

When your realize we landed on the moon in the year 1969

Everyone: Nice

[blueboigaming]

Can't even imagine the feeling these guys had when that hatch opened for the first time. There you are, staring at a completely alien place. A place no one had ever been or even seen in person before. Stepping out for the first time must have been mind blowing.

Imagine, if your the guy left on the floating rocket, your literally the most loneliest man in the history, your physically 384, 400 km away from earth and from everyone, and you're there all alone as you orbit the moon and pass the dark side of it, and nothing is happening, just a total silence, your basically The Most Loneliest Man in History.

And this is why we should appreciate Sir Isaac Newton for inventing gravity

Next landing target: the sun




don't worry, we'll go at night

Apollo 11 at whole, how I think about, is the most amazing human event for ever and ever. I am 57 years old now, but I remember the mission (which I'd watched by tv) like it was happened yesterday. Superlative

[cesaravegah]

Hard to imagine a human being both so smart, physically fit and level headed as Amstrong, very few people through history was even close.

[lukev]

Imagining being the 3rd guy who didn’t get to go on the moons surface

[drawde_]

So you’re telling me that there just a bunch of bags lying on the moon?

[KarenSieradski]

Thousands of geniuses at NASA: We can't figure out how to fix it.
Aldrin: Eh, I'll just shove a pen in the hole.

Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong are surely the heroes of Apollo 11 mission who went through thick and thin to make the mission successful and come back home alive but let's not forget about Michael Collins. He was so close to the moon yet he couldn't step on it. But he was still happy and proud, without him Buzz and Neil wouldn't have been back home safely. My salute and respect to all the three heroes.

To be honest you could probably feel the exact level of stress they had were trying to land in kerbal space program

[rogerpedler]

The whole mission was very scary ....brave

[vedicsubliminal]

Looking back at all the troubles they went through to land on moon, it's cruel to say it was fake. For those doubtful, at least give 'em the benefit of the doubt.
