The Apollo 15 Command Module Pilot, Al Worden, takes a group of his fellow test pilots through the Apollo 15 voyage to the moon, as observed from the pilots’ seat. After a break to see the NASA film Apollo 15: in the mountains of the moon, Worden discusses the aftermath of the flight and NASA’s future programme.
The Lecture was presented to the Royal Aeronautical Society’s Test Pilots Group on 3 May 1972. The podcast was edited by Mike Stanberry FRAeS and it was digitised thanks to a grant from the Royal Aeronautical Society Foundation.
