That’s interesting, but I thought the first words were “OK, engine stop” (Buzz)

Who cares, if you can still get it on at 93 and keep someone happy who is over 30 years younger than you, then he deserves another medal.

Dr. Anca Faur, Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering and Catalysis.

Legit hard science Ph.D. She deserves to be called "doctor".

Some claim that the Van Allen radiation belts are impenetrable by humans, and have never been entered.

They're right, for the wrong reasons ... The Apollo crews flew OVER the van Allen belts. There's a reason they're called "belts", and not "spheres". I bet you didn't know that.

Reminds me of an old joke:

An older couple were celebrating their 40th Anniversary, both of them being 62 years old. They went out to their favorite restaurant, and ordered their sentimental favorite dessert after diner. Just as they were finishing up, *Poof* the Anniversary Fairy appeared. He spoke, “You are the only ones that can see me, please do try not to appear too startled. Since you two have been such fine and loyal partners for so long, I can grant you each one wish, with the normal caveats. So, what will it be? Ladies first please!”

The wife thought for a minute and asked, “If it’s not too much I would wish for successful careers and marriages for each of our nine grandchildren.” Poof caviled that technically that was more than one wish, but since she was so nice, he would make an exception and grant it. Then he asked the husband his wish. He replied, “I hope this will not disappoint anyone, but honestly, I would just like to be married to a woman exactly like my wife, but thirty years younger than me.” “No problem”, said Poof, and just like that he was 92 years old.

These people are a poisonous combination of ignorance, arrogance, and lack of intelligence. I pity them.

Despite the science behind trips. But some also say that the earth is flat.

Hmmm, this is an important point, so more accurately, better for me to state that Buzz's "413 is in" is spoken ahead of Neil's "Houston.." [but follows after "Shutdown"].

Interesting words in the numeric context/backdrop of the Book of Life, along with the 1201 and 1202 alarms (all considering, ???).

Armstrong: "Shutdown."
Aldrin: "...413 is in."
Armstrong: "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed."

Neil, not over the air-to-ground loop, said "Shutdown" at the point of landing. Buzz was in the middle of a call to the ground that was "Mode control, both Auto. Descent engine command override - OFF. Engine arm - OFF. 413 is in." The last three words were after Neil's "Shutdown." And then Neil made the official symbolic statement "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed."

413 referred to a software setting that configured the vehicle so that any abort would now be a ground abort and not an air abort.

Robbing the cradle.

How come Biden didn’t scale up as he aged?

Was it because older women didn’t allow the hair sniffing?
