NASA Director of Flight Crew Operations Deke Slayton Rubs His Eye after Apollo 11 Landing  (FTV-0008041)
Loading the video player...

Description
This view from mission control shortly after the landing of Apollo 11 shows NASA Director of Flight Crew Operations Deke Slayton rubbing his eye as if affected emotionally by the success of the mission. The camera then pans to show a brief view of capsule communicator Charlie Duke saying something inaudible, possibly to Slayton.

Transcript from air to ground flight loop (time on the left denotes ground elapsed time, or GET)

102:47:36 Aldrin: Radar circuit breaker. (Long Pause)

(the above dialogue is represented as accurately as possible, and has been combined with the flight director's loop on channel 2. It was recorded on the air to ground flight loop at the moment the footage was filmed, however no audio and picture lip synchronisation is possible with anyone visible in shot)

Historic Context of Clip
Background to Apollo 11:
The Apollo 11 mission was the first manned mission to land on the Moon. It was the fifth human spaceflight of the Apollo programs, and the third human voyage to the moon. Launched on July 16, 1969, it carried Commander Neil Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin.

Landing:
On July 20, 1969 the Lunar Module, called Eagle, separated from the Command Module, Columbia to make its descent to the lunar surface. As the landing began, Armstrong reported they were "running long"; Eagle was 4 seconds further along its descent trajectory than planned, and would land miles west of the intended site. Armstrong's first words after landing were: "Houston, Tranquillity Base here. The Eagle has landed."
