Christmas wish from Apollo 17

Uploaded by: jasonhenderson
Video Description:
Peace for all mankind-- the speech starts about 1:00 in, and lasts one minute.
Cernan: Bob, this is Gene, and I'm on the surface; and, as I take man's last step from the surface,back home for some time to come - but we believe not too long into the future - I'd like to just (say) what I believe history will record.That America's challenge of today has forged man's destiny
of tomorrow.And, as we leave the Moon at Taurus- Littrow, we leave as we came and,God willing, as we shall return, with peace and hope for all mankind. Godspeed the crew of Apollo 17 Parker: Roger, Geno. Thank you very much.

I think the Apollo ... ( 5 months ago by Huckf113)

I think the Apollo missions were probably faked. Why thou, did they use different types of film in different missions. Apollo 11 was in black and white!

They came several ... ( 5 months ago by tafferboy21)

They came several years apart. Apparently, within those years, color TV was popularized.

how come we don't ... ( 5 months ago by dumapies)

how come we don't see any stars or anything like so...another thing is in other videos they walk around talking to each other....so they are talking wireless but since there is no air in space..how can radio waves travel from the astronaut's suit to the receiver..today it's no problem they use lasers..but back then so such thing existed..we been lied to for 40 years

lasers...You don't ... ( 4 months ago by quaheedus)

lasers...You don't need an atmosphere to transmit radio waves or TV signals...if you did satellites wouldn't work. We still receive radio signals from probes billions of miles in space. The shuttle does not use lasers to transmit radio or TV signals it uses the same basic methods used on the Apollo missions.

Idiot!..your ... ( 4 months ago by quaheedus)

Idiot!..your telling these kids a bunch of lies that the landings were faked yet you cant even get the name of the Lunar Rover correct. Yeah you are a real authoritarian on the subject of Apollo that everyone should listen too...moron! The fact is the cameras were the smallest ever made and where specifically designed and built by Westinghouse for the Apollo program. Up until then TV cameras were huge and heavy and had to be mounted on tripods,wheels, or booms etc.

I have seen your ... ( 4 months ago by quaheedus)

I have seen your Brazilian moon hoax video and it is all based on ignorance and lies. Every point in the video can easily be proven wrong with very little effort! Hey Brazil..we went to the moon already.. get over it! It is not Americas fault that your nations is still substandard nation.

You don't see any ... ( 4 months ago by joshatkins94)

You don't see any stars because the camera exposure was too quick; it was set to capture bright objects, like the LEM and the astronauts' suits, not faint objects like stars. No images from space ever show many stars (you *can* see some stars in the Apollo footage), from the Shuttle, ISS, or unmanned probes. Radio waves can travel in a vacuum - they're electromagnetic waves; it doesn't matter that there's no air. That's the exact reason they used radio, as sound waves can't travel in a vacuum.

i really hope you ... ( 4 months ago by steveissimo)

i really hope you are joking! radio waves don't need air to propagate, that would be sound waves, its unbelievably depressing even to have to point that out. Your bitch of a mother should be ashamed of the chimp she spawned.

These comments are unbelievably depressing. Chimps

It wasn't a hoax, ... ( 4 months ago by joshatkins94)

It wasn't a hoax, but let's not go into that. They took the best camera technology they had at the time. Don't forget they were transmitting 384,400 km - that's a quarter of a million miles - and they could have no more than a few seconds of delay.

Yeah, in fact it ... ( 4 months ago by joshatkins94)

Yeah, in fact it was quite cool for the quite controlling the camera in mission control, as he got the liftoff filmed perfectly, which was neat as Apollo 17 was the last landing. It's in the last episode of From the Earth to the Moon "Le Voyage Dans Le Lune".

Let's go to the ... ( 4 months ago by joshatkins94)

Let's go to the Moon and Mars.

how come there are no visible stars anywhere. you would think that the stars would stick out like a sore thumb it is completly dark all of the time. strange!!!!!

Wait a minute. Why ... ( 4 months ago by degrangier)

Wait a minute. Why then they have not taken a good 16mm film camera, to get a high resolution film? Or use the Hasselblad camera with 1600 ASA film to get a nice picture of the sky? Look there is no atmosphere, perfect to shoot the sky. They did'nt do it in any of all the missions. Why? Because it's very difficult to simulate the moon sky in a studio!

Is it filmed in the ... ( 4 months ago by degrangier)

Is it filmed in the Nevada?

There are no stars ... ( 4 months ago by akatsuki2589)

There are no stars because of the filters on the video cameras and filters. Without them, the light would be too bright because there is no atmosphere to scatter or diffuse the light. I suggest that you read "Man on the Moon" by Andrew Chaikin.

Once again...
You can watch the area 51 on google earth, and the place where it's supposed to be filmed. But there is one major difference betwin Nevada and Moon...
Bushes! If you look Nevada really close on google earth, you can see hundreds of bushes. And there are no bushe on the Moon... And how to turn all the yellow/red sand of Nevada into grey?

Ever tried to take ... ( 3 months ago by Salladsdressing)

Ever tried to take pictures of stars in a bright city? Pretty hard isn't it? The moon and the bright city are both very bright so if you have a camera that is designed to take pictures of bright objects at close range you are not able to see faint objects in a pitch black sky. I am not even a Scientist but this is simple optics that i learned in 8th grade.
