Podcast appearances and mentions of Bill Anders

After circling the Moon ten times on Christmas Eve, it was time for Apollo 8 to come home.

Leitura bíblica do dia: Isaías 55:6-13 Plano de leitura anual: Habacuque 1-3, Apocalipse 15 Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira: Na véspera de Natal de 1968, os astronautas da Apollo 8 Frank Borman, Jim Lovell e Bill Anders tornaram-se os primeiros a orbitar a Lua. Enquanto faziam isso, compartilhavam imagens da Lua e da Terra. Em uma transmissão, revezaram-se lendo Gênesis 1. Na celebração do 40º aniversário, Borman disse: “Fomos informados de que na véspera de Natal teríamos o maior público que já tinha ouvido uma voz humana. E as únicas instruções que recebemos da NASA foram as de fazer algo apropriado”. Os versículos lidos pelos astronautas da Apollo 8 ainda plantam sementes da verdade no coração dos que ouvem a histórica gravação. Por meio do profeta Isaías, Deus diz: “Venham a mim com os ouvidos bem abertos; escutem, e encontrarão vida” (Isaías 55:3). Revelando Sua livre oferta de salvação, Ele nos convida ao afastamento do pecado e a receber Sua misericórdia e perdão (vv.6-7). Ele declara a autoridade divina de Seus pensamentos e Suas ações, que são muito vastos para realmente entendermos (vv.8-9). Ainda assim, Deus nos dá a oportunidade de compartilhar Suas palavras transformadoras, que apontam para Jesus, e afirmam que Ele é responsável pelo crescimento espiritual do Seu povo (vv.10-13). O Espírito Santo nos ajuda a compartilhar o evangelho enquanto o Pai cumpre todas as Suas promessas em Seu tempo e ritmo. Por:Xochitl Dixon

Bill Anders ruft uns an! Aus dem Weltall! Und gleichzeitig aus dem Jenseits. Denn er war Astronaut und ist mit der Apollo 8 ins All geflogen. Von dort hatte er der irdischen Bevölkerung aus der Genesis vorgelesen. War das Verrat an der Wissenschaft?  Neues Buch von Jörn Dyck: Die Morde der Bibel — Band 1: Die fünf Bücher des Mose Kommentare? Hier lang zu YouTube...Weitere religionskritische Webseiten:Podcast: KetzerpodcastDie Morde der BibelPodcast: MGEN — Man glaubt es nichtAtheismus-TV auf YouTubeArtikel: AWQ — Answers Without QuestionsNews in deutscher Sprache: AMB — Atheist Media Blog (Blasphemieblog)News in deutscher Sprache: HPD — Humanistischer PressedienstBibelwissen und Religionskritik: Bibelkritik.chWitziges: Reimbibel.deKlassiker: Die Legende von der christlichen Moral

In the third episode of our Footsteps on the Moon special, Apollo 8 became the first manned spaceship to orbit the moon, and astronaut Bill Anders takes an iconic photo.Written by Jessica Riches, performed by Stephen Fry. Sound editor Will Jacob.

This week we pay our respects to Bill Anders, the Apollo 8 astronaut who died last month at the age of 90. To help us do this we're joined by Francis French who had numerous visits to Bill Anders home while writing his book “In The Shadow of the Moon.”Bill Anders Obituary: https://heritageflight.org/about/maj-gen-bill-anders/remembering-bill-anders/#:~:text=Major%20General%20William%20Alison%20Anders,the%20time%20of%20his%20passingFrancis French:https://www.francisfrench.com/X: https://twitter.com/F_FrenchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/francisjfrench/Full show notes: https://spaceandthingspodcast.com/Show notes include links to all articles mentioned and full details of our guests and links to what caught our eye this week.Image Credits: NASASpace and Things:X: https://www.twitter.com/spaceandthings1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spaceandthingspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/spaceandthingspodcast/Merch and Info: https://www.spaceandthingspodcast.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/SpaceandthingsBusiness Enquiries: info@andthingsproductions.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/spaceandthings.

PREVIEW: MOON: Conversation with colleague Bob Zimmerman, author GENESIS, re the early NASA astronauts and their can-do spirit and soaring morale as they worked toward moon landings by the end of the 1960s. Certainly the recently deceased Bill Anders was a man of high confidence.  More detail later. 1957 the moon race began with LEO.

Richard and Jason spend time talking with Joe Lennox, a space collecting and education legend.  Joe talks about his passion for the space program and how he utilizes his collection (assembled mostly for free over decades!) for the greater good -- educating and inspiring scores of children on the importance of the next frontier.  Joe describes how he acquired some of his special items and how he displays those treasures. You'll love hearing Joe's story-telling and his passion for space travel collecting. His enthusiasm is infectious. The guys also discuss — from the collector's perspective — the recent passing of another lunar hero, Bill Anders. 

We see the sun every day as it rises and sets... it's one of the few constants in life. But it's a very dynamic body, throwing minor temper tantrums regularly. As it happens, we're at the peak of its 11-year cycle of activity and there's a lot going on! Dr. Alex Young, the Associate Director for Science in the Heliophysics Science Division at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, joins us to talk about the sun, solar activity cycles, the recent solar storms that have given us auroras and some communications blackouts, the science from the Parker solar probe, and much more. Don't take the friendly Mr. Sun for granted--join us for this fascinating episode! Headlines: NASA's accidental broadcast: A simulated medical emergency on the International Space Station was mistakenly aired for 8 minutes, causing brief panic before clarification. Spacewalk canceled: Just before a planned spacewalk, NASA canceled the event citing spacesuit discomfort, with few details provided. Voyager 1 update: The spacecraft is now sending back data from all four of its working instruments, a remarkable feat for the 47-year-old probe. Remembering Bill Anders: The Apollo 8 astronaut, known for the iconic Earthrise photo, passed away at 90 after a private plane crash. Main Topic - Our Friendly Mr. Sun: Heliophysics defined: Dr. Young explains that heliophysics studies the sun's atmosphere and its interactions with Earth and the solar system. Solar activity cycle: Currently near solar maximum, the sun is exhibiting increased sunspots, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections. Space weather impacts: Solar activity can affect technology, causing communication disruptions, satellite damage, and even power grid outages. Solar observation: A variety of spacecraft monitor the sun, including NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory and NOAA's GOES satellites. Parker Solar Probe: This groundbreaking mission is providing unprecedented data about the sun's corona and solar wind. Solar magnetic field: The sun's magnetic field flips every ~11 years, which can lead to increased solar activity during the transition. Carrington Event: This 1859 solar storm remains the benchmark for extreme space weather, causing telegraph systems to catch fire. Sun in pop culture: Rod, Tariq, and Dr. Alex Young discuss depictions of the sun in science fiction, separating fact from fiction. Solar research: Dr. Young shares his current work on the statistics of large solar events and improving science communication. Hosts: Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik Guest: C.

En décembre 1968, les astronautes Frank Borman, James Lovell et Bill Anders s'envolent pour la toute première mission habitée autour de la Lune. Souvent occultée par l'exploit de la mission menée par Neil Armstrong et Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 8 est une mission tout aussi exceptionnelle. Elle est la toute première à faire voyager des êtres humains à plus de 360 000 km de la planète Terre. Fruit de la détermination de la Nasa et de l'Amérique toute entière à gagner une course aux étoiles débutée 10 ans plus tôt, la mission Apollo 8 a marqué l'histoire par son audace, comme par les fabuleuses images qu'elle a rapportées sur Terre. Si ce sont les astronautes d'Apollo 11 les premiers à avoir marché sur la Lune, ce sont bien ceux d**'Apollo 8** qui ont ouvert la voie, partis pour un voyage à l'issue incertaine et sous le regard des habitants de la Terre entière.

Astronomically speaking, there are a number of ways in which life on Earth could be wiped out. For example, a giant asteroid could hit Earth with such energy that the oceans are boiled off.This lecture will assess which astronomical events are likely and which are not.

On Christmas Eve 1968, the Apollo 8 astronauts—Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders—became the first humans to enter lunar orbit. As they circled the moon ten times, they shared images of the moon and the earth. During a live broadcast, they took turns reading from Genesis 1. At the fortieth anniversary celebration, Borman said, “We were told that on Christmas Eve we would have the largest audience that had ever listened to a human voice. And the only instructions that we got from NASA was to do something appropriate.” The Bible verses spoken by the Apollo 8 astronauts still plant seeds of truth into the listening hearts of people who hear the historical recording. Through the prophet Isaiah, the Lord says, “Give ear and come to me; listen, that you may live” (Isaiah 55:3). Revealing His free offer of salvation, God invites us to turn from our sin and receive His mercy and forgiveness (vv. 6–7). He declares the divine authority of His thoughts and His actions, which are too vast for us to truly understand (vv. 8–9). Still, He gives us opportunity to share His life-transforming words of Scripture, which point to Jesus, and affirm that He is responsible for the spiritual growth of His people (vv. 10–13). The Holy Spirit helps us share the gospel as the Father fulfills all His promises according to His perfect plan and pace.

Apollo 8 war in vielerlei Hinsicht eine besondere Mission. Es war der erste bemannte Flug zum Mond. Bis dahin hatte sich noch kein bemanntes Raumschiff weiter als 1.500 Kilometer von der Erde entfernt. Die drei Astronauten Frank Borman, William Anders und James Lovell betraten zwar nicht den Mond – diesen Schritt sollte erst Neil Armstrong ein halbes Jahr später gehen – aber sie umkreisten ihn zehnmal und testeten die Landefähre. Heiligabend 1968 knipsen die Astronauten ein Foto, das die Welt verändern sollte: Im Vordergrund der kahle graue Mond, im Hintergrund die aufgehende blauweiße Erde – die erste Weltraumperspektive auf unseren Planeten. Da ein Aufnahmegerät die Bord-Gespräche mitschnitt, ist der Moment, als sie die Erde erstmals sehen, auch akustisch erhalten geblieben. Die Aufnahme beginnt damit, dass Borman eine Drehung des Raumschiffs ankündigt, denn die Astronauten sind gerade dabei, die Mondoberfläche in Schwarzweiß zu fotografieren und müssen dazu das Raumschiff etwas justieren. Man hört, wie sie sich über einen Krater auf dem Mond unterhalten, und ob der möglicherweise vulkanischen Ursprungs ist. Durch die Drehung kommt Apollo 8 mit einem Mal in eine Position, in der die Erde durch ein Fenster sichtbar wird. Ab dann hört man die Begeisterung. Man hört dann, wie Bill Anders zu Jim Lovell sagt, er solle ihm schnell den Farbfilm reichen. Lovell sagt erst: "Mach viele Fotos!" Und dann: "Komm, gib mir die Kamera." Anders: "Beruhige dich." Dreieinhalb Stunden vor diesem unerwarteten Ereignis gab es noch eine Live-Schalte zur Erde, die im Fernsehen übertragen wurde. Es war ja Weihnachten. Und so beginnt Bill Anders, als Weihnachtsbotschaft die biblische Schöpfungsgeschichte zu verlesen. Jim Lovell und Frank Borman schließen sich an.

Christmas Eve, 1968. They were the crew of Apollo 8 - Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders - from their command module, sailing in the vacuum of space above the lunar surface, they beamed back images of the moon and Earth...this day in weather history.

Major General Bill Anders flew on Apollo eight in December 1960 on one of the most visionary voyages ever attempted in human history. He, Frank Borman and Jim Lovell were the first people to leave Earth orbit to travel to another celestial body to see the dark side of the moon, to see the entirety of the Earth at once, and to travel on top of a Saturn five rocket. He took the iconic Earth rise photograph. In later life, he served in the Nixon administration to advise on space policy, then ran the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and also served as the US ambassador to Norway. He went on to enjoy a second stellar career in the private sector at General Electric, Textron and in particular, as CEO of General Dynamics, backed by Warren Buffett, He embarked on a period of transformation with such devotion to shareholder value that it is today the subject of Harvard case studies.

On 24 December 1968, humans witnessed our home planet rise over the horizon of another world for the first time. The crew of Apollo 8 looked up from the Moon to see the blue and white swirls of Earth poised above the stark grey lunar surface—a single oasis in a big, dark universe. The moment, captured on 70mm color film, captivated audiences back on Earth. It fueled the environmental movement and the first Earth Day, which convened a little over a year later, on 22 April 1970. For the 50th Earth Day, we talk with Ernie Wright, a programmer and producer for the Scientific Visualization Studio at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland. Wright recreated that iconic Earthrise photo and animated it with the kind of 3D animation software Hollywood uses to bring CGI landscapes to life, using detailed surface images and altimetry from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. He talks about recreating the moment with Apollo 8 astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders, and how he used math to solve a puzzle about who took the famous photo. This episode was produced by Liza Lester and mixed by Lauren Lipuma.

In 1968, Apollo astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders, would come within 70 miles above the lunar surface circling it several times. Their live broadcast from Lunar orbit would capture the world's attention!

Aí Deus disse: — Que a água que está debaixo do céu se ajunte […]. E Deus viu que o que havia feito era bom. vv.9,10 O astronauta Bill Anders, tripulante da Apollo 8, em 1968, descreveu a visão da paisagem lunar, enquanto orbitava ao redor da Lua. Descreveu-a como “um horizonte de mau agouro, pouco atraente para o futuro.” Em seguida, a tripulação se revezou na leitura de Gênesis 1:1-10 para o mundo que os assistia. Após o comandante Frank Borman terminar de ler o versículo 10: “E Deus viu que o que havia feito era bom”, ele despediu-se com as palavras: “Deus abençoe todos vocês, todos vocês na boa Terra. O capítulo de abertura da Bíblia insiste em dois fatos: A criação é obra de Deus. A frase “E disse Deus…” ressoa por todo o capítulo. O magnífico mundo em que vivemos é o resultado do Seu trabalho criativo. Tudo que se segue na Bíblia reforça essa mensagem de Gênesis 1. Por trás de toda a história, há a presença de Deus. A criação é boa. Outra frase ressoa suavemente, como um sino, ao longo de todo este capítulo. “E viu Deus que isso era bom.” Muita coisa mudou desde o primeiro momento da criação. Gênesis 1 descreve o mundo como Deus o queria, antes de qualquer deterioração. Qualquer beleza que vemos na natureza hoje, é uma leve lembrança do estado primitivo que Deus criou. Os astronautas da Apollo 8 viram a Terra como um círculo colorido brilhante pendurado sozinho no espaço. Parecia impressionantemente bonito e ao mesmo tempo frágil. Parecia o cenário de Gênesis 1. No princípio, criou Deus os céus e a terra. 
Gênesis 1:1

Good Heavens! Fifty years ago Christmas Eve (1968), Jim Lovell, Bill Anders, and Frank Borman became the first human beings to orbit the Moon. Join Wayne and Dan for coffee as they chat about the achievement, the space race, and the role of Christian faith in space exploration. 

On Christmas Eve in 1968 Bill Anders was in orbit around the moon in Apollo 8 when he took one of the most iconic photos of the last fifty years: Earthrise. The image got to be seen everywhere, from a stamp issued in 1969 to commemorate the success of Apollo 8, to posters that are still available today. Gaia Vince explores the impact of this image on the environmental movement and our understanding of our place in the universe. “Oh my God. Look at that picture over there. Here’s the earth coming up. Wow, isn’t that pretty.” Bill Anders was on the fourth of the ten orbits of the moon on Apollo 8, along with James Lovell and Frank Borman. Bill had spotted the earth through one of the hatch windows and grabbed his camera to take a black and white photo. But just in time, he picked up another camera with a colour film loaded, and the rest is history. When they returned from space – the first mission to orbit the moon – Nasa used Bill Anders’ image of Earthrise in its publicity. Nasa had understood there was an added value of going into space: taking pictures of our home planet. Stewart Brand was part of both the counterculture and the environmental movement; he’d hung out with Ken Kesey and his merry pranksters and put on happenings. He went on to found the Whole Earth Catalog, which brought together all kinds of alternative thinkers. Stewart Brand put the Earthrise photo on the front cover of one of the editions of the Whole Earth Catalog. Gaia Vince talks to Stewart Brand, and to scientists and artists, about the continuing importance of seeing Earth from above.

For many, Christmas is for spending time close to loved ones. But in 1968, astronauts Frank Borman, Bill Anders and Jim Lovell would spend their Christmas Day further away from home than any human had ever done before. With the help of archive material, former NASA employees, author Robert Kurson and the astronauts themselves, Anna Foster remembers the Apollo 8 mission on its 50th anniversary. The mission was everything to Apollo 8 commander Frank Borman. For him, beating the Soviets in the space race and the safety of his crew were paramount. William Anders was the rookie of the crew. Bill had never been to space before, and he was excited to document and remember every last second of the experience. In new interviews, they share their memories, the mission and its legacy with Anna. In the year leading up to the flight, America had faced some of it’s toughest times. The Vietnam war appeared unwinnable, Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were murdered and riots broke out on streets across the country. The American people needed something to change. NASA's moon programme was over budget and behind schedule, three astronauts had died the previous year aboard an Apollo capsule and the Soviet Union was readying its own massive booster for a possible lunar mission. Then, at the end of one the worst years in US history, with the odds stacked against them, NASA ripped up its rulebook to send three men to the far side of the moon.

Apollo 8 war nicht irgendein Weltraumflug. Er war in vielerlei Hinsicht besonders. Es war der erste bemannte Flug zum Mond. Bis dahin hatte sich noch kein bemanntes Raumschiff weiter als 1.500 Kilometer von der Erde entfernt. Die drei Astronauten betraten zwar nicht den Mond – diesen Schritt sollte erst Neil Armstrong ein halbes Jahr später gehen – aber sie umkreisten ihn zehn Mal und testeten die Landefähre. Und Heiligabend 1968 knipsten die Astronauten ein Foto, das die Welt verändern sollte: Im Vordergrund der kahle graue Mond, im Hintergrund die aufgehende blauweiße Erde – die erste Weltraumperspektive auf unseren Planeten. Und zu diesem Erdaufgang verlas Bill Anders seine berühmte Weihnachtsbotschaft.

När besättningen på Apollo 8 läste skapelseberättelsen från rymden på julafton blev det protester. Men mer än något visar rymden hur lika vi är i den stora oändligheten, säger Maria Küchen. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. 12 april 1961 sköts kosmonauten Jurij Gagarin upp från den topphemliga sovjetiska rymdbasen Baikonur i nuvarande Kazakstan i Centralasien och blev den första människan i rymden. Under sin knappt två timmar långa färd stannade han i bana kring vår planet. Så var det också med hans efterföljare de närmaste åren. En knapp månad efter Gagarin blev Alan Shepard USA:s första rymdfarare. 1965 gjorde den sovjetiske kosmonauten Alexej Leonov världens första rymdpromenad. Ett tjugotal astronauter sändes ut i rymden fram till 1966 i USA:s två inledande bemannade rymdprogram, Mercury och Gemini. Alla stannade de i bana kring jorden. Först sju år efter Gagarins bedrift, några dagar före jul 1968, bröt sig en bemannad rymdfarkost loss ur jordbanan. Den ingick i USA:s tredje rymdprogram Apollo och hette Apollo 8. Femtiofem år hade gått sedan bröderna Wright inledde motorflygets historia genom sin flygtur vid Kitty Hawk. Det var ett drygt halvår kvar till Neil Armstrongs och Buzz Aldrins första bemannade månlandning med Apollo 11. Tre decennier senare skulle en permanent rymdstation, International Space Station, ISS, börja cirkla kring jorden. ISS bemannades vid millennieskiftet 2000 och förblev sedan oavbrutet bemannad i åtminstone två decennier. Så småningom fick rymdstationen internetuppkoppling och en kontinuerlig livestreaming inleddes. Flera av ISS-astronauterna började twittra flitigt och uppdatera dagligen på Facebook. Avståndet var kortare mellan jordytan och ISS än mellan Malmö och Stockholm. Gränsen mellan rymd och jord suddades ut. Apollo 8:s månfärd julen 1968 hade varit ett viktigt steg på den vägen. Färden innebar att människan för första gången besökte en plats som var helt främmande och väsensskild från jorden men Apollo 8 fick oss också för första gången att inse att rymden är vårt hem, att vi alla är rymdvarelser. Senare skulle Apollo 8-astronauten Jim Lovell säga att vi människor kommer till himlen när vi föds, att det vi kallar himlen i själva verket är vår egen jord. Ombord på Apollo 8 fanns astronauterna Frank Borman, Jim Lovell och William Anders. Liksom sina föregångare hade deras farkost först lagt sig i bana kring jorden, men efter ett par varv kring vår planet tände Apollo 8 motorerna för en kort stund och gjorde en translunar injection. Manövern innebar att farkosten lämnade jordbanan och satte kurs mot månen, en färd på närmare fyrtiotusen mil att jämföras med de fyrtio mil som skiljer jorden från ISS. På julafton 1968, efter tre dygns färd, lade sig Apollo 8 i bana kring månen. Fyrtiotusen mil bort skimrade jorden som ett ömtåligt blått klot, en oändligt ensam liten himlakropp omgiven av beckmörker. Aldrig tidigare hade människor iakttagit hela vår planet utifrån, från så långt håll. Erfarenheten var existentiellt omvälvande. Senare skulle Apollo 8-astronauten Jim Lovell säga att vi människor kommer till himlen när vi föds, att det vi kallar himlen i själva verket är vår egen jord. Borman, Lovell och Anders blev de första som fick se månens baksida. Medan de passerade den del av månen som aldrig syns från jorden, bröts all radiokontakt. Efter fyrtiofem nervösa tysta minuter kunde markkontrollen i Houston, Texas, till sin lättnad höra astronauternas röster igen. Lovell meddelade: Jag kan nu bekräfta att tomten finns. Men att återvända ur radioskuggan på månens baksida, att se jorden stiga över månhorisonten, stämde också astronauterna till allvar. De ville göra något högtidligt, det var ju dessutom julafton. Burkigt nådde deras röster människorna på jorden över radion: Till alla människor på jorden, sa befälhavaren Bill Anders har Apollo 8:s besättning ett meddelande. Sedan började han läsa inledningen till Bibelns Skapelseberättelse. I begynnelsen skapade Gud himmel och jord. Jorden var öde och tom, djupet täcktes av mörker och en gudsvind svepte fram över vattnet. Gud sade: Ljus, bli till! Och ljuset blev till. Gud såg att ljuset var gott, och han skilde ljuset från mörkret. Gud kallade ljuset dag, och mörkret kallade han natt. Det blev kväll och det blev morgon. Det var den första dagen. Bill Anders kolleger tog över och fortsatte läsningen medan den fjärran blåskimrande jorden steg över månens gråa karga livlösa yta. Vi avslutar, sa till sist Frank Borman, med god natt, lycka till, och Gud välsigne er alla, alla ni på den goda Jorden. Julfirare världen över rördes och värmdes av deras ord. En flyktig känsla uppstod av universell global gemenskap eller nåja, nästan. En ateist i Texas stämde så småningom den amerikanska rymdmyndigheten NASA eftersom hon ansåg att det stred mot USA:s konstitution och religionsfrihet att en statlig myndighet spred ett religiöst budskap från rymden. Alla i hela världen firade dessutom inte jul. Astronauternas avsikt var visserligen knappast att missionera, men de bortsåg från att kristendomen inte är mänsklighetens enda religion. eftersom rymdstationen befann sig i så snabb rörelse att Mecka kunde förflytta sig hundraåttio grader under en enda bön På den internationella rymdstationen ISS, som våren 2018 hade besökts av 146 personer från arton länder och fem världsdelar, har muslimskt böneliv praktiserats av bland annat den malaysiske astronauten Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor. Han fick dock problem med att inta Qibla, riktningen mot Mecka, eftersom rymdstationen befann sig i så snabb rörelse att Mecka kunde förflytta sig hundraåttio grader under en enda bön. Malaysias rymdmyndighet sammankallade en konferens där en guide sammanställdes för gudstjänst i rymden. Den godkändes av Malaysias nationella fatwaråd och slår fast att qibla i rymden ska ta hänsyn till vad som var möjligt för astronauten. I första hand ska den bedjande astronauten rikta sig mot Kaaba i Mecka, i andra hand mot bilden av Kaaba, i tredje hand mot jorden, i fjärde hand vart som helst. Kanske kan vi faktiskt rikta våra böner vart som helst, vi rymdvarelser som kommer till himlen när vi föds till den här jorden. Och kanske kan välgångsönskningarna från rymden julen 1968 fortsätta få omfatta alla på planeten, oavsett deras tro eller inte. Även om 1968 innebar att tiotusentals amerikanska soldater på den sköra blå jorden firade jul i Vietnam, eftersom detta var året när Vietnamkriget rasade som värst. Även om rymden, idag när gränsen har suddats ut mellan rymd och jord, riskerar att bli ännu en spelplats för exploatering och krigföring. Liksom Gagarin beskrev Apollo 8 en cirkel kring jorden. Cirkeln drogs ut till en åtta, tecknet för oändlighet, när farkosten på liknande vis lade sig i bana kring månen. Det evighetstecknet, snarare än inledningsorden i kristendomens heliga skrift, var kanske Apollo 8-astronauternas grundläggande julbudskap till oss. Vi rymdvarelser, som tillbringar våra flyktiga liv på den goda Jorden, är allihop inskrivna i samma ofattbara kosmiska oändlighet. Maria Küchen, författare och kritiker

Mark checks in with James Hirsen (NewsMax.com) and they chat about a number of stories including the fallout of Michael Cohen, who now claims that President Trump has no idea what he's doing and lying through his teeth. Also, Bill Anders took that iconic picture from space on Apollo 8 back on Christmas Eve 1968. He joins Mark to reflect on that as well as the environment/society we were living in at that time.

Pred skoraj petdesetimi leti – natančneje 24. decembra 1968 – je v vesolju nastala ena najvplivnejših fotografij Zemlje preteklega stoletja. Astronavti na Apollu 8 Frank Borman, Jim Lovell in Bill Anders so iz lunine orbite dobili čudovit posnetek Zemljine oble, ki ni pokazala samo to, kako krasen in svetel je ta modri marmorni planet, ampak tudi to, da v skoraj neskončnem vesolju nismo (mi) središče vsega. Takrat je bila fotografija iz vesolja nekaj revolucionarnega, danes pa fotografije Zemlje pridobivamo vsak dan. Ob pomoči podjetja Sinergise satelitski posnetki Zemlje omogočajo vsakemu, da pogleda na kakšno drugo celino in vidi, kakšne spremembe se dogajajo: presihajoča jezera, izginjajoči ledeniki, gozdovi, ki se krčijo zaradi pridobivanja palmovega olja … Od lepote našega planeta v preteklosti do skrbi zanj danes – tudi s satelitskimi posnetki, bosta govorila vodja podjetja Sinergise Grega Milčinski in profesor astronomije, astrofizike in kozmologije na Fakulteti za matematiko in fiziko dr. Tomaž Zwitter. Foto: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (Flickr/Creative Commons)

I 1968 fejrede astronauter for første gang jul i rummet. Det var astronauterne ombord på Apollo 8, Frank Borman, Jim Lovell og Bill Anders som fik lov at opleve det. Juleaften fulgte millioner af mennesker tv-transmissionen fra Apollo 8, hvor de eneste instruktioner som astronauterne havde fået var at de skulle gøre noget passende.

A rare conversation with astronaut Scott Parazynski and the story of one of NASA's most daring missions, the Flight of Apollo 8 are the subject of The Halli Casser-Jayne Show the podcast posted at Halli Casser-Jayne dot com.In his compelling new memoir, THE SKY BELOW: A TRUE STORY OF SUMMITS, SPACE, AND SPEED astronaut and adventurer Scott Parazynski takes us on a rocketship paced, adrenalin-filled adventure from the dizzying heights of Mount Everest where the wind whips climbers to their death, to the solitude and expanse of outer space where he was tethered to the International Space Station by an improvised leash to make emergency repairs. While his father worked as a Boeing engineer developing the Saturn V rocket, as a young boy Parazynski traveled the earth with his parents and was educated worldwide before returning stateside to earn his medical degree before training at NASA. In THE SKY BELOW Parazynski gives readers a front row seat to his seventeen year career at NASA: his training, leading the first ever US-Russian space-walk and taking us inside the “family escort” role astronauts solemnly perform for each other when disaster strikes Columbia. The climax of his space career comes with a mission that many regard as one of the most dangerous and challenging ever performed.The story of Apollo 8 begins in August 1968. NASA was losing the space race with Russia, with earliest estimates of going to the moon still more than two years in the future, and President Kennedy's promise to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade was sure to be broken. The United States was deep into the Cold War and in the middle of a year of violence abroad and at home: Vietnam, the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy, the Democratic convention in Chicago descending into violence. Then, in the midst of all of that turmoil NASA scrapped their meticulous mission schedules and asked astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders to orbit the moon, and they would do it in just four months despite the substantial risks, the Apollo 8 mission, equal parts fearless and reckless, ingenious and impulsive – told in APOLLO 8: THE THRILLING STORY OF THE FIRST MISSION TO THE MOON written by science editor and senior writer for Time Jeffrey Kluger, also the co-author of the bestselling book APOLLO 13, on which the beloved film is based.Astronaut, aviation history, NASA, Apollo 8, the Cold War, The Right Stuff, all on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show.

Who better to write the story of Charles Lindbergh's 1927 Transatlantic Crossing than acclaimed aviator and aviation historian Dan Hampton the New York Times bestselling author of VIPER PILOT, LORDS OF THE SKY, and THE HUNTER KILLERS. Dan is a graduate of the USAF Fighter Weapons School, USN Top Gun School and USAF Special Operations School. Placing himself squarely in the cockpit with Lindbergh, Hampton's book THE FLIGHT: CHARLES LINDBERGH'S DARING AND IMMORTAL 1927 TRANSATLANTIC CROSSING offers a fly-boy's perspective to bring alive the danger, uncertainty, and heroic accomplishment of Lindbergh's death-defying, non-stop flight across the Atlantic in The Spirit of St. Louis – an achievement that brought the world to a halt in May 1927 and made Lucky Lindy also nicknamed ‘Slim', the most celebrated man of his time, and the most controversial.The story of Apollo 8 begins in August 1968.
