On this edition of Manned Space we join the Apollo 9 crew of Jim McDivitt, Dave Scott & Rusty Schweickart on an earth orbital shakedown ride of the Apollo Program's Lunar Module - the vehicle specifically designed to fly in the vacuum of space never to return to Earth and more importantly specifically designed as the vehicle to land on the Moon. The Apollo 9 mission had a lot of firsts: it was the first flight of the Lunar Module; it was the first flight of a space vehicle not capable of returning to Earth; Rusty Schweickart performed the first EVA of the Apollo program, and more! Join us for this fast paced look at this important spaceflight.
