Harrison Schmitt may be the only person without a military aviation background to walk on the moon, but he served his country (and humanity as a whole) as a scientist, explorer, and inspiration to countless individuals back here on planet Earth. It was an honor to sit down and speak with him, and we hope his story continues to inspire future generations to push further into space than before.

What an amazing man and what a life! He's now 88 years old....still sharp as a razor. Thats what clean living and remaining intellectually engaged will get you.......a healthy, active and stimulating later years. This man is a great Role Model....and this is the kind of Role Model our kids _NEED_ so sooooo desperately these days....not brain dead 'musicians' or overly wealthy trust fund brats or brain addled actors or drug riddled athletes.....we need men like this.... real role models. Most people would be more than content having achieved only ⅛ of what this man achieved by the time he reached his 30s. I so do hope that we get back to the Moon.....and permanently as well. Even if its for no other reason than needing to have a properly established and entrenched presence there ....before China does. If the West doesn't, China most certainly will! But I also hope we go back to the Moon permanently as well as get out to the resources of the Asteroid Belt, using any means necessary.....even if it ends up being some lunatic Billionaire that gets us all there. I really wanna see a sunrise on the surface of the Moon or look out at the Milky Way from the surface of an asteroid. I reaaaallly want to get off the rock....its broken.

If you read the stories of NASA at the time you know why Schmitt was the one of all the "scientist-astronauts" who got the opportunity to go to the moon. He was willing to put in as much work as was necessary to get the job. I read one story where they needed an astronaut to go into the flight simulator, not to practice for a flight, but to actually give the sim supervisors a chance to work out their programs and practice their routines. None of the other astros wanted to do it, but Schmitt was willing at any time and for as long as he was needed. With no aviation background, he developed enough competence as a pilot (after Joe Allen, the best flyer amongst the scientist-astronauts), at an advanced age for someone first taking up flying, that his feedback on developing simulation programs was valuable. That was just one case where he took on work that the "real" astronauts saw as distasteful, boring or routine. It was outside his area of expertise, but if someone was needed to do a job, he was willing to take it on.

@SladeBling Ай бұрын

I remember Apollo 17 in Dec 1972 both Schmitt and Cernan pleaded to extend their 3rd(and last) moonwalk but NASA firmly denied their request and ordered them back into the LM. NASA did not want the two astronauts to be a permanent memorial to Apollo stuck on the moon for eternity. Still, their moonwalks were epic they explored the hell out of that valley, even finding boulder tracks that are over 30 million years old. Thank god they made it back to earth safely what a magnificent closure to the moon missions!

@@aok4418 NASA was talking at that time about testing the Orion spacecraft which was originally conceived in the early 2000’s as a proposal for the Constellation programme. Following the cancellation of Constellation in 2010, it was heavily redesigned for use in NASA's Moon to Mars project. Orion contains much more complex electronic systems which are far more susceptible to radiation damage than Apollo’s low density integrated circuits and magnetic core memory, both of which are extremely radiation hard. Orion also isn't just intended to go through the Van Allen belts in a few hours as Apollo did. It’s designed for missions up to 21 days long, and perhaps even longer if it forms part of a mission to Mars. As a result, it would face exposure to radiation levels vastly greater than that of Apollo, for months on end, so testing its shielding is vital. A lot of this has now been solved. Artemis 1 was an unmanned orbit of the Moon in November/December 2022.

In the mid 80's NASA built a brand new launch facility on the west coast at Vandenberg Air Force Base, California. They were going to launch into polar orbit which would have had Air Force/Military applications(i.e. spying on the Soviet Union). After Space Shuttle Challenger blew up in Jan 1986 NASA scrubbed the program and thus never launched a shuttle from Vandenberg.

No, Aldrin never claimed “we never went”. Moon landing deniers have taken Aldrin’s words and twisted them for their nefarious needs. What Aldrin did say is that during the landing, the LM was unable to send a TV signal. So during the landing, there was no live video feed: we only had audio. In order to show the public what the landing looked like, TV networks used an animation. Once the lander was on the lunar surface, it could run its TV transmitter, and we were able to get live video of the moon walks.

There are things that are just out of their control completely though... If we undo the BS going on in the education system across the board the last 30 years and remove all the astronomical amounts of gate keeping and nepotism going on in the aerospace industrial complex they'll show up more and Aerospace in America as a whole will roar back to life and create new and amazing things again instead of a bunch old farts maintaining legacy aircraft and or space programs.. I should also say, Much as I understand and respect Mike Rowe's arguments about college vs trades; when it comes to stuff like space travel and exotic aircraft and progressing aerospace to the true FUTURE we all dream, you MUST have a scientific and educational foundation of some kind (classroom work and study) mixed with a trade to make people like this. They're out there.. They just need to be thinned out of the heard, found and sharpened. The old ways used to do this pretty efficiently, apparently, Jack's is a shinning example. But for whatever reason they were thrown out or forgotten. I also think its all been slowly sabotaged by the outside world whether intentional or not, so many variables, but thats a rabbit hole on its own. Common core is the most recent blatant example aside from all the freaky stuff happening in our schools already. It all starts and begins to focus in grade school. Weve gotta turn that s*it around.

@@Hobbes746 Beyond Low Earth Orbit, space radiation may place astronauts at significant risk for radiation sickness, and, increased lifetime risk for cancer, central nervous system effects, and degenerative diseases. Research studies of exposure in various doses and strengths of radiation provide strong evidence that cancer and degenerative diseases are to be expected from exposures to galactic cosmic rays (GCR) or solar particle events (SPE). Milli-Sievert (mSv) is a form of measurement used for radiation. Astronauts are exposed to ionizing radiation with effective doses in the range from 50 to 2,000 mSv. 1 mSv of ionizing radiation is equivalent to about three chest x-rays.

A lot of the blueprints still exist on file; but the individual knowledge of everyone involved and the “organisational know-how” of how to actually run such a huge, complex project has been lost after such a long time. Much of the equipment is archaic, and many things cannot be bought “off the shelf” and have to be specially manufactured. Re-designing from scratch is cheaper and better. However, it takes years to build up that sort of expertise and NASA is going through the same problems it had in the early to mid-60’s.

Money. NASA hasn’t received anywhere close to the same level of funding that they had back then, not to mention we quickly realized after the space race that without competition there’s no incentive for it. The reason people are considering the moon again today is because it took that long for competition in the space industry to return.

@galaxypanda1288 data suggests that the Apollo 11 astronauts were not sufficiently protected against radiation: Neither the spaceship nor the spacesuits contained lead. Aluminum is ineffective against gamma and neutron rays. The calculated exposure to of the Apollo crew was 1.8 Sv, an amount of associated with nausea, vomiting, bone marrow changes and 20% mortality. Surprisingly no Apollo astronaut showed any ill effects from radiation exposure. These inconsistencies seem to reflect either possible over-estimation or under-reporting of the health hazards summarized in Safe Passage. Furthermore, these medical inconsistencies seem to highlight the surprising observations that the Apollo 11 astronauts did not show any signs of space sickness from microgravity upon their return to earth on July 24th 1969 [9].

@@aok4418 The command module’s outer hull was made of stainless steel and the (upper) heat shield from epoxy resin, which along with the fibrous insulation between the inner and outer hulls was a very effective form of shielding against protonic radiation. Lead shielding is not effective against all types of radiation. High energy electrons (including beta radiation) on lead may create the Bremsstrahlung effect, which is potentially more dangerous to tissue than the original radiation. Furthermore, lead is not a particularly effective absorber of neutron radiation. To reach the Moon and return safely, the Apollo astronauts had to cross the quarter of a million miles between the Earth and the Moon. They also needed to operate safely while in orbit around the Moon and on the lunar surface. During the Apollo missions, the spacecraft were outside the Earth’s protective magnetosphere for most of their flight. However, they were not exposed to particle radiation for long enough on a short 8-12 day round trip for it to be a significant risk. In 1968 the Russian Zond 5 sent a number of biological samples around the Moon and back, including two turtles and these specimens were recovered alive upon their return to Earth. The astronauts would have been at serious risk of electromagnetic wave radiation from energetic solar flares, however the Apollo flights coincided with the height of the solar cycle, the periodic waxing and waning of activity that occurs every 11 years. The increased strength of the Sun’s magnetic field that permeates the solar system acts like an umbrella, shielding the Earth, Moon and planets and therefore lessening the impact on astronaut radiation doses.
