On May 6, 1968, Neil Armstrong safely evicted Lunar Landing's No. 1 research vehicle as he began to register beyond his ability to recover. This made Neil Armstrong the first pilot forced to leave the vehicle in flight. Wind gusts on Earth were a contributing factor, but there were several defective components, including a sensor that failed to detect and warn of a fuel imbalance . Armstrong came out unscathed, but the vehicle was destroyed.

On July 20, 1969, the story was made when humanity set foot on the moon for the first time.
On July 20, 1969, the Apollo 11 astronauts landed on the Moon and undertook the first mission ever organized with humans on another world. The previous year, Neil Armstrong, holding the camera here, had almost died in a crash in flight test.

With his "big leap forward for humanity," Neil Armstrong has achieved one of the most ambitious dreams ever attempted by humans.

But Armstrong has hardly survived, barely escaping death the year before.

Landing gently on the moon, with no horizontal movement and only slight vertical movements, was a huge problem for NASA.
In 1965, NASA scientists determined what an optimal trajectory would look like for a safe landing on the moon. Only the Lunar Landing Research Vehicle (LLRV), built explicitly for this purpose, was able to simulate such a trajectory on Earth.

There was no computerized guide or high resolution map of the lunar landing site.
Using data from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LARC) and its narrow-angle camera (LROC), we can now build 3D models of the Moon's surface and simulate potential sites. landing for missions. This was not possible given the technology and data sets available in the 1960s.

The possible driver of the lunar module should manually navigate to the handshake.
From the command / service module, Apollo 9 pilot David Scott photographs the lunar module in its landing configuration. Lunar surface probes can be seen extending from the ends of the landing gear pads. The Lunar Landing Research Vehicle (LLRV) preparatory tests were designed to replicate the conditions of the Apollo Lunar Module on the Moon. Buzz Aldrin finally served as a lunar module pilot for Apollo 11.

Armstrong was training on Lunar Landing's No. 1 research vehicle on May 6, 1968, when something went terribly wrong.
The Lunar Landing Research Vehicle (LLRV) is one of the most important tools on which Apollo astronauts have been trained. It was the best opportunity to simulate a real landing on the lunar surface here on Earth.
NASA / G. J. Matranga History Division, C. W. Ottinger and C. R. Jarvis
On his 22nd LLRV test flight, he lost control.
The gravity of the Earth's surface is six times more powerful than that of the Moon, which means that to simulate a landing on the Moon, it would be necessary to design a special vehicle. The Lunar Landing Research Vehicle (LLRV) had a special cardan motor that could maintain a real approximate lunar gravity, allowing the pilot to tilt the vehicle and test its responsiveness under simulated conditions. 39, landing on the moon.

Standby attitude thrusters, which should have been used when needed, were not responsive.
This photo shows Lunar Landing Research Vehicle No. 2 (LLRV-2) transferred from the Armstrong Flying Research Center to be exhibited at the Air Force Flight Test Museum at Edwards Air Force Base. It is almost identical to the vehicle that almost killed Neil Armstrong in 1968.

200 feet above the ground, without any visible warning on board, Armstrong unilaterally decided to eject.
On May 6, 1968, Neil Armstrong was flying Lunar Landing's No. 1 research vehicle when he lost the ability to properly steer the aircraft. Using his own decision-making power, he ejected from the vehicle (L); Four seconds later, the craft struck the ground where it ignited less than a second after the impact (R).

A the loss of helium pressure caused the depletion of hydrogen peroxide, causes the failure of reserve attitude thrusters.
Immediately after the accident, Armstrong returned to his office, continuing his normal work.
The Lunar Module was successfully deployed during its first flight in orbit during Apollo 9. You can see the landing gear coming out, demonstrating the potential for landing. on the moon. The return engines have not yet been fired. This mission took place in February 2019, nine months after the Armstrong accident and barely four months after the problem was solved at the origin of the accident.

The engineers corrected the problem by resuming the test landings in October.
This is one of the last official appearances of the three Apollo 11 astronauts: Buzz Aldrin, Michael Collins and Neil Armstrong. If he had not had a cool head and survived on his catastrophic test flight in 1968, Neil Armstrong would have never been the first human to set foot on the moon. .
