If there are any astronauts still alive from the Apollo era I’d be very interested in a conversation between Bob and Doug and those Apollo Mission astronauts specifically about the reentry sounds and sensations. The internal capsule vibrations and sounds during reentry then and now.

Of those who walked on the Moon, four remain. Of those who went without landing, seven. Jim Lovell’s alive, and he went twice without getting to set foot on the surface.

Real astronauts had cool names like Deke, Gus & Gordo. What do we have now? Bob & Doug? Sheesh! I half expected the MacKenzie Brothers to step out of the Dragon capsule!
