Vescos' 444 2009 entry

[interested bystander]

 

My tongue in cheek comment about the Four Port Riley stems from the statistic  posted on the 'net today.

It stated:

''The majority of Americans were born AFTER the MOON LANDING!''

And the Watts riots, for that matter, I realized.

Guess that means my Stromberg jet wrench, that's around here someplace, is as alien as grandma's high button shoes.

''The majority of Americans were born AFTER the MOON LANDING!''

And outside of the USA, I bet!

  Somebody explain to me how they took off from the moon and docked with Collins who was orbiting in the main spacecraft? This to me would take the most technology and timing '' think about it''.
  I have never heard it mentioned and no count down to rendezvous or completion.

O.J. explained it all years ago in that movie, whatever it was called.  You just had to line up the capsule with the grassy knoll.
