I liked reading this extensive accunt of all apollo missions and what each accomplished --

A Man on the Moon: The Voyages of the Apollo Astronauts Andrew Chaikin https://www.amazon.in/Man-Moon-Voyages-Apollo-Astronauts/dp/...

I wish there was an "annotated verison" or enthusiast discussion forum that corss-linked footage like this to the corresponding passages in the book so we can live it more fully

Another tidbit. Toward the end you hear mission control say "30 seconds." That's how much fuel is left[1]. Those guys had steel spines.

If you can't get enough of this stuff, I highly recommend "A Man on the Moon" by Andrew Chaikin[2], as well as the HBO mini-series produced by Tom Hanks and based largely on that book, "From the Earth to the Moon"[3]. "Failure Is Not an Option" by Gene Kranz[4] (flight director on Apollo 11 and 13, among other things) is also a good read.
