Repost from @nasa_marshall using @RepostRegramApp - This week in 1969, Apollo 10 launched from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. The mission encompassed all aspects of an actual crewed lunar landing, except the landing. It was the first flight of a complete, crewed Apollo spacecraft to operate in lunar orbit. Here, the first stage of the Apollo 10 Saturn V vehicle is hoisted in preparation for erection on a mobile launcher in High Bay 2 of the Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy. NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center designed, developed and managed the production of the Saturn V rockets that took astronauts to the Moon.

We had the honor of meeting and treating retired air force 3 star General, Thomas Stafford. He was the commander of Apollo 10 and holds the record for fastest man alive from traveling at 24,791 statute miles per hour apon re-entry on Apollo 10. He told me that he is most proud of developing stealth technology and he sketched out the specs for the B-2 stealth bomber on a napkin. He is by far and away the coolest man I have ever met, please look up his wikipedia page. We spoke yesterday and he gave me permission to post this. His shoulder is feeling great from the stem cells and his energy is up from the 300 million stem cell IV at dreambody.clinic (833) 445-9089 #apollo10 #stemcell #dreambodyclinic #stemcelltreatment #astronaut #stemcells #stemcelltherapy #regenerativemedicine #mexicostemcells #heal https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqFk29u2hY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Apollo 10 set the record for the highest speed attained by a crewed vehicle: 39,897 km/h (11.08 km/s or 24,791 mph) on May 26, 1969, during the return from the Moon. #Apollo10

The last man to walk on the Moon, Gene Cernan, promised his daughter he’d write her initials on the #moon. He did, and her initials, “#TDC,” will probably be on the moon for tens of thousands of years. #genecernan #apollo10 #moon #eugenecernan https://www.instagram.com/p/BylCUhvHoZq/?igshid=a6yrb7r1zmk6
