Christmas Eve at rumkapslens talles 4 circuit decided Commander Frank Borman turning the Apollo cap

"Prague Spring" in Czechoslovakia was crushed by Soviet troops talles 200000 - it was almost afraid to open the newspaper in the morning for fear of getting information about some new annoyances.
But then there was Christmas and Apollo 8 voyage - the first spacecraft that left Earth and orbited talles the Moon. The crew was Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders. It was one of the biggest investments ever by NASA.
NASA was told not correctly, it turned out by the CIA that the Soviet Union was preparing its own manned mission to the moon and was ready to go. Since NASA wanted to be the first on the moon, and also to meet President Kennedy's oath of a U.S. manned lunar landing before the end of the decade, took to the challenge and prepared the Apollo 8's talles travel on the moon.
The decision was controversial. NASA's giant Saturn V rocket, the only rocket that was able to bring people to the Moon had struggled with problems and instrument error on its two test flights.
Christmas Eve at rumkapslens talles 4 circuit decided Commander Frank Borman turning the Apollo capsule talles away from the lunar surface talles and the distance. What then happened was nothing but a sheer coincidence. The astronauts managed to turn the vessel so that the window were exactly in the moment when the earth appeared above the lunar horizon. NPR has a transcript of the reaction:
Anders: "Whatsoever - fast."
"It talles seems to us inconceivable, 'We talles were not looking for earth when they came to the Moon?'" talles Says Chaikin NPR. "But as Bill Anders explained to me many years later, he said, Listen, we were trained to go to the moon. We were focused talles on the Moon, observed the moon, studying the Moon and the Earth was actually not in our thoughts until it popped up over the horizon. "
It took only a few days after they were returned to Earth before NASA published the photo. It became a symbol of the Earth's fragility as it reminded us of how shameful life, and insignificant our place in the universe truly is.
As part of the Apollo talles 8 spacecraft he once was with reading the retired talles astronaut James Lovell Monday 1968 Christmas Time broadcast from the day he and two others were the first people who have circled the Moon. Lovell marked the 45 anniversary of the circuit and the famous broadcast talles a day earlier talles with a kind of revival at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry.
Millions watched by December 24, 1968 when Frank Borman, Bill Anders and Lovell circled the Moon. A TV camera on board recorded the cratered surface while the astronauts read Bible verses describing the creation of the Earth. They were in orbit 10 times and began to read from 1 Numbers on the last cycle.
"It is the foundation talles of Christianity, Judaism and Islam," said Lovell on the choice of 1 Genesis. "It is the basis for most of the world's religions .... They all have their basis in the Old Testament."
On Mondays read local high school students, a parent and Lovell, who lives on the outskirts of Chicago, each a few verses. Governor Pat Quinn hosted the event and call the broadcast a message of encouragement that the country needed in 1968, and is still useful today.
Lovell said the astronauts back then were not sure whether they would listen and how their removal would be accepted. He said on Monday that he thought the dog would be well received and noted the lawsuit during a news conference.
What did the reading so incredibly dramatic and emotionally uplifting was the moving images sent back to Earth from an alien, inhospitable world. Combined with verses from 1 Genesis has never been a more powerful consistency between words and images on TV.
The two little boys were looked after by grandparents. At bedtime, they knelt by their beds to say their prayers. The youngest began in a loud voice. "I pray for a new bike. I ask for a new football shirt. I ask for a new football. "
