Armstrong, Collins, and Aldrin - L-R??
Am I right??
That picture was taken nine days before the guys of Apollo 12 launched. According to a story that’s been published is that Chris Craft came the the 11 crew and told them not to take any undue risks. If they had to punch off and abort the landing, they would get the next Saturn V. They didn;t know if there was any truth to that but they wanted to do everything they could to get the job done first time out. The guys on 12 to 17 didn’t get that same promise. Just glad they got ‘r done on the first shot. It was a hell of a show that was an event unequalled to this day. I am still amazed at how it all worked. With the exception of the near fatal flight of Apollo 13, everything worked. My hat is off to all those involved with that effort. They did good.
