Fourth crewed mission to land on the Moon
POPULARITY
Galileo is considered the father of modern science. His discoveries included the laws of pendulums which led to the development of the first accurate clocks. But tragically, he was tried by the Inquisition of Rome for heresy. The science deniers of the Church threatened to burn him at the stake unless he recanted his claims that he could prove that Copernicus was right: that the Earth is not the center of the universe, that we live in a heliocentric system where the earth and the other planets revolve around the sun.

After eulogizing Alan Shepard, the first American in space, we will take a look at Apollo 15, what is often referred to as the most successful Apollo mission. It had everything - a beautiful location near lunar foothills, a rover - A CAR! - to drive around in, a memerable experiment broadcast for all the world to see, and the first every DEEP SPACE space walk. But despite this success, the end of the podcast might leave you thinking that something went terribly wrong.The Space Race series introduction music is Lift Off by kennysvoice.As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: · The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com · Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast· Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts· Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/

Diane Gordon Briggs is the youngest child of Barbara Gordon and astronaut Richard F. Gordon of Gemini XI and Apollo 12. She is a wife, mother of six (like her mom), and a Christian Counselor. Join in with Diane and her closest childhood friend, Tracy L. Scott, as they reminisce over their childhood and their dads' space adventures during the early days of NASA.Tracy L. Scott is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at Emory University. She grew up in Nassau Bay, Texas, as part of the early NASA community (her father, David R. Scott, flew on the Apollo 15 lunar mission). She recently donated her parents' papers from the early NASA era to the Stuart A. Rose Library (see the Finding Aid for those papers here). Dr. Scott will be teaching a course in Spring 2022: “Moon Bound: A Sociology of the Apollo Era.”
Colonel David Scott was the Commander of Apollo 15 Moon mission in 1971. Col Scott was the first man to drive the Lunar Rover on the Moon and is one of only four surviving astronauts to have walked on the Moon's surface.Col Scott flew to space three times in this illustrious career. His maiden voyage was on Gemini 8 with Neil Armstrong, when he became the second man to walk in space. The middle flight was on Apollo 9 with Jim McDivitt and Rusty Schweickart.Prior to becoming an astronaut, the Texas native graduated West Point and joined the Air Force. After serving as a fighter pilot in Europe, he graduated from the Air Force Experimental Test Pilot School. He furthered his test pilot training under the watchful eye of the legendary Chuck Yeager.Col Scott was a member of the second group of Astronauts selected for the program. He retired from the Air Force in 1975 with the rank of Colonel and more than 5,600 hours of logged flying time.He now lives in Florida with his wife Mag.Be sure to join Mick and Mook on 22 September for what surely will be a fascinating interview.

Bob Diemert is the owner of Friendship Field Airport in Carman Manitoba. It was around that town in 1975 where Charlie Red Star made his appearance in 1975 and 1976." "ROBERT DIEMERT, who operates Friendship Field in Carman, Manitoba, owns and flies one of the rarest of all aircraft, an Aichi K-99 Val dive and torpedo bomber used by the Japanese Imperial Navy in World War II. Bob retrieved what was barely recognizable as the remains of one of this type from a South Pacific island, and it represented what was probably the "best of the worst" to be had. Because, at the end of the Pacific War hostilities, all remaining Vals, as well as all other Japanese military types, were ordered destroyed by the Allied High Command. The Val — the Aichi T-99, designated the K-99 by the Navy — was the first all-metal monoplane dive bomber built by Japan, and saw extensive action at Pearl Harbor and during the first half of the Pacific War. It was an attack by Vals that sent the British carrier Hermes and the cruisers Cornwell and Dorsetshire to the bottom of the Indian Ocean in April 1942. Toward the end of the war, some Vals were converted to single-seat suicide aircraft. In our interview Diemert describes the many sighting of Charlie Red Star. He also described the nuclear connection to the sightings. Then he tells the story he told me 40 years ago of the day James Irwin from the Apollo 15 crew came to his airport to talk rebuilt warplanes and what the Apollo 15 crew saw on the moon.
Heute vor 50 Jahren kehrte Apollo 15 zur Erde zurück. Während des Besuchs auf dem Mond hat David Scott nicht nur als erster ein Fahrzeug benutzt – er hat auch das erste Kunstwerk auf dem Mond zurückgelassen.

Our Apollo@50 series continues with the first truly scientific exploration of the Moon -- the Apollo 15 mission. With new hardware including an orbiting observatory platform on the Command Service Module, the first lunar rover, and an upgraded, lunar module, Astronauts Dave Scott and Jim Irwin were able to geologically explore the mountains of the Moon at the Hadley-Apennine landing site that featured 14,000 high peaks and a spectacular canyon: Hadley Rille.
Durante la missione Apollo 15, 50 anni fa, fu compiuto sulla Luna un esperimento in omaggio a Galileo e alla sua fisica dei gravi
Episode 1547: Our article of the day is Apollo 15.
The Apennine Mountains are the tallest on the Moon. They top out at almost three miles above the surrounding plains. And for Apollo 15 astronauts Dave Scott and Jim Irwin, who landed at the base of the Apennines 50 years ago today, they offered quite a view. SCOTT: Oh, look at the mountains today, Jim, when they're all sunlit — isn't that beautiful? IRWIN: It really is. SCOTT: By golly, that's just super. It's, you know, unreal! The mountains represented some of the Moon's earliest crust. And another nearby landmark — a canyon known as Hadley Rille — contained evidence of fairly recent volcanic activity. Scott and Irwin bagged about 170 pounds of rocks and dirt. And they covered a lot of ground — about 17 miles — in the first lunar rover. SCOTT: This is really a rockin', rollin' ride, isn't it? I've never been on a ride like this before. Oh, boy. I'm glad they've got this great suspension system on this thing. Scott and Irwin spent three days on the Moon. Then they rejoined crewmate Al Worden, who'd been operating a set of Moon-watching cameras from orbit. During the trip home, Worden took the first “walk” in deep space to retrieve the film. Before they left orbit, though, the astronauts achieved one more “first”: They ejected a small satellite to observe the environment around the Moon. APOLLO 15: 3, 2, 1, launch. ... Tallyho! It operated for several weeks — extending the work of Apollo 15. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

The crew of Apollo 15 had a spectacular view. The astronauts landed at the edge of a deep canyon, near the base of some of the tallest mountains on the Moon. For scientists, the site offered a chance to study several eras of lunar geology. Dave Scott, Jim Irwin, and Al Worden headed for the Moon on July 26th, 1971. LAUNCH CONTROL: 4, 3, 2, 1, all engines running. Launch commit. Liftoff! We have liftoff ... They entered lunar orbit 50 years ago today, aboard their command module, Endeavour. APOLLO 15: Hello, Houston, the Endeavour is on station with cargo, and what a fantastic sight. CAPCOM: Beautiful news! Romantic, isn't it? The next day, Scott and Irwin boarded the lunar module, Falcon, and headed for the surface. FALCON: Eight feet, minus one. Contact! Man! Okay, Houston, Falcon is on the plain at Hadley. CAPCOM: Roger roger, Falcon. The site was ringed by the Apennine Mountains, which are almost three miles high. They formed when an asteroid slammed into the Moon four billion years ago. Shockwaves piled up layers of rock. So geologists hoped the base of the mountains might offer samples of the Moon's early crust. The site also offered details on the impact. Falcon landed at the edge of Hadley Rille, a canyon a mile wide and a quarter of a mile deep. It probably formed when a lava tube collapsed. So it offered a chance to study recent volcanic activity — at one of the most spectacular sites on the Moon. More tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory
