Raul Yzaguirre School For Success [RYSS] - NASA Special Field Trip [December 16, 2010]
Tom R. Chambers and his students toured the Apollo Era Mission Operations Control Room at the Johnson Space Center in 2010. This tour was before t he restoration project, which was conceived in 2013, began in November 2018 and completed in July 2019. The control room was restored to its Apollo-Era condition, and features the authentic consoles used to monitor nine Gemini missions, all Apollo Moon missions, and 21 space shuttle missions. This includes the Apollo 11 flight that first landed men on the moon, the Apollo 13 mission that famously experienced an in-flight emergency, and 40 other space missions.
