12:31 am
moscow was against calls up the u.n. to target the syrian regime urging for actions of pushing the warring sides stuart's dialogue do you have the escalating violence a big country well this comes as dozens more protesters were reportedly killed on tuesday while with more than one hundred deaths over the weekend. and a six month south are being taught old former egyptian leader hosni mubarak is finally set to go on trial for the killing of protesters during peak travel reauthorizing all the ordinary egyptians feel the revolution the promise of big change to the contrary has delivered a very little. of that we take you back in time and space to as apollo thirteen mission which famously failed to land on the moon because of a technical failure however all three crew members did return safely to worth at r.t. sophie shevardnadze caught up with the mission's commander for his memories of the events that interview's up next.
12:32 am
it's a great pleasure and honor to have you with us it's nice to be here now you've started out for the moon twice without ever lending is that fair well the first time was deliberate we were merely going to test out the navigation of the communications and look for suitable landing spots for the people who would make the first lady and thirteen of course was supposed to be the third lunar landing mission and as you probably know we had the explosion and so we had to go around the boat to come back home again fortunately we were successful in doing that. here moon mocking your dreams oh yes i've been there before the flight i would try to figure out what
12:33 am
i would be doing there at a place called model but after i came back i never really dreamed about it after that i mean once i was you know safely back on earth i just forgot about it when he spoke about the moon and he spoke of fast loneliness terrorists and inspiring. you can homesick if you want to go back. no as a matter of fact we were around the moon and eight and going around thirteen we were still sort of attached to the earth and we did have this idea of being you know. away from the earth and separated from the earth and although i have to admit that the world we look back at the earth and we could put our earth to the window and everything behind our earth was was disappeared and everything that we've ever known was behind earth thought it was that's sort of a usual feeling
12:34 am
a feeling of how insignificant really we all are back on earth and i could put my thought up and hide everybody. and of course that incredible shot of the earth right think that's where the first to show us they are and i think for everyone it has a special personal meaning what does that chart signify to you. well i think and that one photograph which was not over here is my personal impression of what we saw but everybody who saw that picture and is perhaps one of the most famous photographs of the last century. again that we are a. spaceship here on earth ever all astronauts whether we want to be or not and we have to live and work together if we are to survive thank you guys we're very religious. all three of you on apollo eight he had very strong religious convictions right well we did but we were not that religious to know that.
12:35 am
you know that there were a violating the sanctity of heaven. because god is with us on earth as it is with us just two hundred forty thousand miles away around the moon and so as a as a better fact you know upon the way we were read the first ten verses of genesis of the old testament we did that because it reality the old testament was the basis of the three basic religions. on earth islam christianity and judaism and so when we were thinking about what to say being the first three people around the boom what can we say and we said the lady who was the right of way adieus paper reporter said read the first of verses of
12:36 am
this will appeal to most of the people who will be listening to you and most of the earth is not christian other religions do so that's what we did to appeal to the greatest a lot of people that were listening to the step the whole science behind the saturn monch was very cold and calculated and you said so many times in your injuries that we're just three guys sitting up five million pounds of high explosives and three in biles away from everyone and we had faith it's just a question of when you go on such a mission how much space how much to space matter need only be guided by reason or you have to have faith well you have to have faith and you have to have faith that civil rights and the good faith that god would be on your side is faith in the. or phil band who built that set or fire who built the spacecraft who designed the
12:37 am
trajectory and the laws that everybody knew what they were to do and that everything would be ok you would never get on top of a saturn five booster if you didn't have faith of the people who built it or to say the right stuff what does it take for someone to go in space i think the people who are astronauts are caused it's. they are people who live on the. people who like to explore people who like to see something different who like to open up new doors and these are the people that you know fired as astronauts cosmos and the people who are here today at the starbase festival that who have this and see the earth as there really is an added joy with the one time gary made his first flights and nine hundred sixty one you're already rejected by nasa once how do you feel about the twelfth of april nine hundred sixty one well i figured
12:38 am
that ever since that became we knew what they were doing. that that the russians would put somebody up in the space. quite early on and we were tempted to try that they were being hired as a matter of fact that what really woke up the american people was not because i think fifty seven up to that time we didn't realize how far danced at that time the soviets were they had rocket technology and then we had started of course they had developed their booster the put yuri up to it and it's amazing. throughout the years. the booster the locket and the put up your carriage. is the same one today with a lot more bought of occasions that are put in astronauts and cosmonauts headed to
12:39 am
the international space station this is like the old story of the tortoise and the here we seem to be the hair we build a rocket said then we don't build up to go to something else we build this and now our shuttle is stopping this year where as the russians have taken a different tack they build both the word and keep expanding to and pretty soon the turtle has funny kissed up to the supremacy of the here quite often carrying the present teen to symbolize teen well i think. is the sabella g. is something that. has really brought the little closer together i mean he was able to sort of navigate to the earth at tie everything together but i think that it was a breakthrough. a challenge of that that he is a really. simple and it is a really
12:40 am
a shame that he you bet is it is the buyers so early in life now when you were going to fly to the moon and the second time are you anxious i c s i was anxious because i wanted to do something i had always planned on doing and i was the backup on apollo eleven so if bill armstrong had become sick or broken leg or something like that i was all set to go but i wanted to actually clear sort of close up my fly space career plan and now of course here returns you have to control the space ship manually and cap make all the calculations right there when did you know that you're safe. well we only knew we were safe where. we saw water splashing over the window but spent we were back of the ocean have the spacecraft had that sought to solve that because every time from from the time of the
12:41 am
explosion of all the way back there were certain prices that we had to overcome including brother the persian it's we'll put up a cuz the pyrotechnics to put it out the parachutes have been cold soaked for four days and we didn't know where the the explosions of the charges were put out the persians let us through your mind when you don't really know whether you can own land them or you can explode is it are you still mobilized to eat you not even you don't have time to fear that form what goes through your mind at that point while i think our our training has got us in a position and a mindset that do we look at things one one step at a time our minds are concentrated on what the next step is going to be what we have to do and we don't worry about failure. we'll worry about that if a failure occurs but not until that time so we're pretty so straightforward what we're doing and thinking about are did you really say fused in we have
12:42 am
a problem the true story which seems to be. going around all the time never never die is that where the explosion occurred jack's weicker. first said. hey houston. we have a problem here. the capsule communicator keep back and said say again please i then said he used to we have had a problem. this rules true story about that of course where they made the movie. they had tom hanks say and he said we have a part to ask questions when i think of austin austin retired now you are a successful businessman but many of them couldn't really find their place in life after the fate i retired from active duty a lot of them suffered think will depression alcoholism why is that why is it that
12:43 am
when often it's retired they can't always find the right way on earth. well i think it's very similar to that old saying that after you've been there perry what else is there you know. it is it's a high point in everybody's life. where that high point stops and you go back to living in a global life again a lot of times it's hard to recover because many people will say yes i understand what you did but that work can you do for me now and so. to be successful you have to always look forward to what backward yes i went to the moon quite so i made for space flights that was of the past what am i doing now what how can i satisfy my life and enjoy life there and sees that and so a lot of us of course travel over to look at the earth if we see that so far what
12:44 am
do you think of the moon when you see it now well it doesn't have the roll bands for me that i that had what before i went to the boom. i would have pretty close to it right now sometimes i wish i could go by. yeah i have actually become levy but you know as a space tourist maybe as a space tourist yeah. no i think i'd prefer to just go around the earth i've been there all this is the there's a dozen small bit of war but the. very the base of the commercial operations are where people serve you know going over there or honeymoon troops around the world the earth thank you very much for this if you for our pleasure picture. wealthy british soil. that's not on.
