Delist & Replace: Houston, we have a problem[edit]

Houston, we have a problem - Current FS.

A tiny, almost context-free segment from a longer event, trimmed to just a soundbyte of an iconic line. Teaching value: 0.

This is what we should have promoted:

Houston, we have a problem - Much better version.

Starts with the iconic line - then goes on to provide all the context someone could want. And it's still only 3 minutes!

The poor audio quality is because it's from space, and no better copy exists. The iconic line is at the start, so people who want only that can just hit stop. The context makes this valuable, and a good teaching tool.

Support Aw, it gets cut-off before they realise the oxygen tanks are leaking... "it looks like some sort of gas". I would have loved the whole recording from when they radioed the Houston control centre and when they used a filter to filter out the Carbon Dioxide in the rocket. Ah well. —James ^(Talk) • 4:04pm • 06:04, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
