Apollo 16 - The Lunar Landing (50th Anniversary)
Coverage of the Apollo 16 lunar landing on April 21st 1972 at 02:23:35 UTC. Onboard Lunar Module Orion are astronauts John Young (CDR) and Charlie Duke (LMP).
Coverage begins a few minutes before the Acquisition of Signal (AOS) on the final orbit before PDI and continues through the landing and T1/T2 Stay points.
Orbiter Space Simulator AMSO, real time footage taken from the lunar module and a graphic representation are used to show events. 1 photograph was taken by the crew in lunar orbit and several after touchdown, these are also included.
Events are in real time as they happened.
All media (except the top screen graphics and simulator) courtesy NASA.

Thanks to:
Paolo Mangili whose contribution has greatly enhanced the project. Paolo was able to translate my vision into reality and, IMHO, has done an amazing job.
Robin Wheeler and Johannes Kemppanen who have provided data and information about orbital positions, attitudes and numerous access to documentation that has been invaluable in this reconstruction.
The Patrons of the Patreon - thank you for your continuing support - it means more than you can imagine
The channel and discord posse who continue to support the work of the channel.
God speed the crew of Apollo 16 and all who made it possible.
