General reminder that Artemis is due to launch by February
davidjade•1mo ago
I was just there this week and it has of course changed a lot. I was also there in either 73 or 74 as a kid - the visitor center has also grown a lot since then.

Well worth the visit (and you really need two days to see everything - we spent 10 hrs and felt rushed and saw only about 75%). Even with the Disney-ified aspects (a few movie rides/experiences and kids activities), it still seems a lot like a museum experience. The artifacts are amazing (like standing under a Saturn V, seeing equipment from the American first space walk, and then walking on the original (relocated) launch tower footbridge that the Apollo 11 astronauts used).

The three astronaut memorials were a bit of an emotional to see in person - pieces of Apollo 1, Challenger, and Columbia as well as tributes to all those who have sacrificed their lives in this pursuit.

The gantry for Apollo 1 is still there (not the museum but the actual place it was supposed to launch from). Photos of it are chilling

Heh, it’s impossible for me to look at these without hearing the launch theme from Apollo 13 in my head. Such a glorious programme.

I like it but I really hate how they felt it "added drama" to put in a fictional argument

Swigert was nothing but capable and professional and nobody blamed him (even in anger) for the oxygen tank explosion

I think I read (on HN?) that the number 5 engine shutdown saved the spacecraft and it's glazed over in the movie. I think they really didn't pay a lot of attention to it but if it didn't shut off it had a high probability of blowing up
