@NASAhistory We, at Honeysuckle, were the last network station to track the CM an LM on reentry. I called LOS on both. Here’s our web page:

@nascom1 @NASASun And a much higher system temp no doubt

@BenFeist I thoroughly endorse this. All the archival audio material. I must admit a little bias - I can hear myself reporting to/from Houston, as “Honeysuckle”

@KenKirtland17 I am truly baffled by the basic shape of the HLS. How can such a tall structure, with minimal “feet” , possibly land and stay upright? Even on a perfectly flat moon, if that can be found? cf IM 1

@CSIRO @nascom1 @Int_Machines @NASA @CanberraDSN Here’s how we did it in 1966. A presentation I made in 2016.

@nascom1 Good to hear. Thanks

@SpcPlcyOnline As an ex space tracker, I liked your IM-1 question re comms - ground or spacecraft problems? I would have loved to hear the answer. (By the way, I get the impression that the whole comms system for the project is woefully inadequate)
