re: #85 FurryOldGuyJeans

I think 8 was more momentous. The first ever traveling to a distant world, and with no backup in case of engine failure on the CSM. 13 at least had the lander.

Yep. First TLI (Translunar Injection). It wasn’t even the plan at first but decided to go for it at the “last minute.” Took some time to perform the final calculations and program the computers.

Of course we all know what Frank Borman read during that voyage. ;)
