I worked with a guy that was part of a team of mathematicians in charge of calculating the re-entry angle back into earth's atmosphere for Apollo 11.

He retired a few years ago, was one of the brightest guys I've ever encountered professionally.

EDIT: listened to the entire thing. First time I've ever heard that, thanks for the share. It was exciting.

Very cool to be able to say he played some part in that.

And yep, it's pretty cool to hear the loops played side by side

If Neil Armstrong were to have given the watch he wore on the moon to a friend, and that friend's son were to walk into Pawn Stars with it, along with proper provenance, if that's possible, imagine how much big Hoss would pay!

It wouldn't be worth much to a lunar landing denier.

Can't say he didn't deserve that.

EDIT: just read he tried to sue Buzz but the judge threw it out.
