      I am a NASA fan, five stars unconditionally and unreasonably

      By the way, write down some nonsense:
      1. Watch Titan explode again and again in the cheerful soundtrack;
      2. Years are a pig-killing knife, but the classmate with strong arms looks very old before landing on the moon;
      3. When the society is in When spinning fast, we have to calm down and spin fast on the simulator, otherwise we will go to Vietnam to be cannon fodder instead of printing the photo on the front page of the newspaper-oh, of course, going to Vietnam to be cannon fodder...

      An extremely dull documentary

      1. The extremely dull documentary, I slept twice in the middle, and took four years to finish it. . .

      2. It doesn't even describe the scale of the moon landing project, the details of the organization, and the technology of the moon landing equipment. . .

      3. Only one key point is pointed out: the first goal of the US moon landing is political competition. . .

      4. The color of the whole film is heavy, the music is slow, and the lack of joy and pride for the...

      Apollo series astronauts talk about personal experience, from beginning to end

      Suggested viewing order:

      1. High Commander’s First Man (2018) movie, with strong perceptual knowledge

      2. This documentary, it’s best to watch the movie one month later, with a detailed explanation by the astronaut in question

      3. Apollo 11 (2019), it’s best to watch it in In the Shadow of the Moon (2007) a month later, very clear and rich historical materials of pictures and sounds, but few explanations

      In The Shadow Of The Moon

      "In The Shadow Of The Moon", 2007. Great documentary. Through the film, it is basically certain that the United States has indeed successfully landed on the moon. But I don't know if it is deliberately avoided. For the second largest controversy, the dispute about extraterrestrial civilizations, nothing is mentioned. Armstrong did not appear in the film. Since landing on the moon, he has been deliberately avoiding the crowd. A man with extremely calm judgment, a man who has attracted worldwide...

      From Apollo to God Seven

      After watching the shadow of the moon, I accidentally went to YouTube and saw Americans and a group of Chinese-speaking people who were suspicious of Shenqi coming out of the cabin. I wanted to say that there were bubbles. I stared at the video they said and watched it N times. Did not see what they called bubbles.
      Hey, there are always people wondering why it's okay to fly out.
      There were also people who doubted the moon landing and said that the American flag was flying incorrectly....

    Movie quotes

    • Charlie Duke: [discussing Neil Armstrong's "one small step" line] It was like Neil, but deeper than I thought that he would come up with. I wouldn't have had the self-control to do that. I'd have, to me, I'd have been jumping up and down, "Yahoo! Hey man, I'm here!" That's the kind of response that I think I would have had. But he was very, very controlled, and those words came out, and they were very appropriate and perfect.

    • Buzz Aldrin: Here we were, on the surface, and I knew this is what people were watching. More people were watching us than had ever watched two humans being before in history, and yet we're further away! Not just in distance, but in things we've got to do to get back home. We've got to do some difficult things to get out of this desolate place, and get back home again.

    • Jim Lovell: [discussing the Apollo 13 accident] We were in serious trouble.

      John Young: I thought, when I saw that oxygen system leaking down, I figured we'd lost them. I really did. I didn't think we'd make it.
