Historic Context of Clip
Background to Apollo 9:
Apollo 9 was the third manned mission in the Apollo program, a ten day Earth-orbital mission launched 3 March 1969. It was the second manned flight of the Saturn V launch vehicle and the first manned flight of the Apollo Lunar Module (LM). Rusty Schweickart and Dave Scott performed an EVA to check out the new Apollo spacesuit, the first to have its own life support system rather than being dependent on an umbilical connection to the spacecraft.
