About Apollo 11's Lunar Module Is Still Drifting Above the Moon
Hey guys! We’re now live on Spotify 🎧 On July 21, 1969, 3 astronauts sealed a hatch above the Moon and cut a spacecraft loose. Its name was Eagle. Hours earlier, it had lifted the first humans off the surface of another world. Then it drifted into the dark, and the whole planet looked away. For more than 50 years, everyone believed it crashed. But in 2021, one man ran a computer simulation to find the crash site. The crash never came. His numbers showed Eagle could still be circling the Moon today, 60 to 70 miles up, once every 2 hours. It is a theory. Nobody has confirmed it yet. Tonight, we chase that ghost. We will fight the Moon's lumpy gravity. We will meet a lost spacecraft that radar found again after 7 years. And we will face one big question. Is Eagle still up there, right now? Quick thing first. Our videos are on Spotify too, earlier and with no ads.
