The theme song of the miniseries "From the Earth to the Moon" ends with a recording of two of the astronauts describing the view; "Look at that!" "That's gotta be one of the most thrilling moments in my life..." Which pair of astronauts are speaking, and where were they when they said those words originally?

Arpeggionist, the documentary "From the Earth to the Moon," was admirable, but it involved much recreation. I'm not finding any transcripts including the exact lines you have posted. However, the transcripts from Apollo 16 do include very similar excited comment, and I suspect that all of the flights did so. Information about Michael Kamen's theme can be found on several sites, but without comment about the astronaut recording. http://history.nasa.gov/ap16fj/01_Day1_Pt1.htm Aug 02 07, 9:05 PM

Thanks. I'll be leafing through the journals anyway (I've just finished looking through 15's flight journals - Dave Scott was a very articulate man). Aug 03 07, 2:17 AM
