Fifty years ago, Apollo 10 launched from Cape Kennedy on May 18, 1969. The Apollo 10 mission encompassed all aspects of an actual crewed lunar landing, except the landing. It was the first flight of a complete, crewed Apollo spacecraft to operate around the Moon. The crew members were Commander Thomas Stafford, Command Module Pilot John Young and Lunar Module Pilot Eugene Cernan. Objectives included a scheduled eight-hour lunar orbit of the separated lunar module, or LM, and descent to about nine miles off the moon’s surface before ascending for rendezvous and docking with the command and service module, or CSM, in about a 70-mile circular lunar orbit. Pertinent data to be gathered in this landing rehearsal dealt with the lunar potential, or gravitational effect, to refine the Earth-based crewed spaceflight network tracking techniques, and to check out LM programmed trajectories and radar, and lunar flight control systems. Twelve television transmissions to Earth were planned. All mission objectives were achieved.

Apollo 11 virtual reality experience is pretty fun
Hopefully you humans got more advanced and yes we fix your ship when it malfunction
Love u gene cernan
They are inspiration for all mankind
Houston, tell the world we have arrived
NASA,tell us about the old ruins that you found on moon long time ago !
Show us all the structures that are in your photos, they are there, I have seen them. Be honest and tell us the truth.
What a great people!! Hatsoff sir
Tom Stafford is my favorite Apollo astronaut!
Lol to funny !
The contradiction between this time of staggering achievement and humility by the Americans versus the immoral filth adminstrating the US today is utterly tragic. What fall from grace.
Was this module that landed and took off from the Moon without leaving marks on the ground or raising dust?
What a generation of people that got it done. USA!
well where's the Apollo 11
There is no dark side
of the moon really.
Matter of fact
it's all dark."
Heroes. A much overused word nowadays
Has NASA released audio of the conversations on the far side of the Moon so we can hear the music also
i want to be an astronaut and i can fly to red planet, first astronaut from indonesia 🙂
Am a Brazilian Guy falling love to NASA, last year i've been there and i have such a great time , thanks NASA.
Thank God for Guys like them
This is sea of tranquility, we have landed and being photographed by a secret soviet probe
Lies
The Apollo mission stories are amazing, because after Apollo:
1) NASA demonstrated for 50 years they had no idea how to send a man above Low Earth Orbit.
2) No man has ever got above LEO from any country. Ever.
After NASA destroyed the original Apollo 11 video it seems a leap of faith is needed to believe in it.
There's solid evidence from NASA that it was faked, but no evidence they ever got there. Even if you believe they did – it didn't teach them anything about space travel did it? What's Project Orion doing? – still testing splashdowns. Doh!
Good
ends video with a pun*
"this view is really out of this world"
I wish I could work with you. I love discoveries about space But this is impossible
I like escuchar music
the name of the song please… 01:46 … ? so beautifull… thank you …
thank you NASA
Best
It was colored pictures then. Next actual landing ws black and white. Well done.
Заберите на луну этот кремлевский балласт
I guess it’s cool and all but can we land on Uranus
