Apollo lunar take-offs. Someone knows.
Reading that it's been 30 years since the last moonwalk by someone not scarred by "cosmetic" surgery.
Went to thinking about the first TV shot of the take-off, which was a flash of light and that's it. FAST.
Then got to thinking that they flew and landed those things while standing up.
Did they lay down for the take-off, or was it slow enough for their legs to handle the acceleration? It sure didn't look like it, especially after being out there for a week or so without meaningful exercise.
Thanks, someone.
