#Apollo12 - Yankee Clipper returned to Earth on November 24, 1969, at 20:58 UT (3:58 pm Eastern Time, 10:58 am HST), in the Pacific Ocean. The landing was hard, and a camera was dislodged and struck Bean in the forehead.

#Apollo12 launched #OTD November 14, 1969 and was struck by lightening during ascent. Houston & the capsule lost all flight data but flight engineer John Aaron recognized the problem and recommended a fix, saving the mission.

Feel pretty bad for the nice lady trying to sell Houston Symphony tickets for Beethoven's "erotica symphony" and Berlioz "symphony fantastic"

A simple switch saved the mission. Thanks to testing before launch, flight controller John Aaron asked the crew to flip an electrical switch, #SCEtoAUX,” and #Apollo12 continued safely to the Moon.

#MathSky #physics #astronomy A thousand years from now, if man is still around, all the wars and politics of today will be footnotes of history. But our descendants, assuming they're not living in caves again, will remember this as the time man really started to learn about planets like Saturn.
Today on the 20th anniversary of Cassini's Portal View image of Saturn -- 69M mi up ahead, ~3/4 the dist betw/ Sun & Earth tinyurl.com/yh7jsjkr -- I'm starting a Cassini Retrospective!

Follow along here as I revisit the highlights of Cassini's exploration of Saturn in chronological order.
