That was funny. When the mass balances were ejected they must have drifted through the data stream for a moment and it cut out. Everybody in Telemetry **** their pants. It lasted only a couple seconds; everything's fine.Cornell University

The worst part has to be that you know that the landing had or had not actually happened by the time the signal that the chutes deployed got here.Originally posted by Kepler View Post

Watching the control room erupt with joy was a treat to watch. I was struck by how young they were, although my recollections that the control room for say Apollo 11 skewed much older might be misperception on my part.Comment

I envy that enthusiasm. And the SpaceX people do the same.Originally posted by Slap Shot View Post
I don't think the Apollo guys were any older- just that the shirts, ties, and smoking makes them look older.Comment

For one thing they looked older because every one of them was a white midwestern Korean War air force or navy veteran.Originally posted by Slap Shot View Post
But I think these folks are younger. I think they do their dream job early and then cash out with Death From Above Co. when they spawn and worry about MIT tuition.
Not that I would know anything about that.Cornell University

SpaceX is the worst (big) company I have come across for work-life balance. Startups are a whole different ballgame. When we moved to Florida, my wife was looking for a job and came across a posting for a position working launches at the cape. Right on the job description, it said to expect 60-hour weeks, minimum. And yet, SpaceX routinely shows up as #1, by far, in lists of companies that STEM undergrads say they want to work for. Most burn out long before they spawn - they never even have a chance to meet someone.Originally posted by Kepler View Post
Musk treats his human capital as far more disposable than his rockets.

This says 28 https://time.com/5623799/apollo-11-m...on%20the%20fly.Originally posted by Kepler View Post
And I don't think that includes the computer support from MIT at all- which was vital.
But 28 in 1969 means that few of them were in Korea (which ended almost exactly 18 years prior to Apollo 11 landing).
Astronauts, on the other hand.Comment
