No, the van Allen radiation belts weren't deal breakers for the Apollo astronauts. They really did go to the Moon. Want weekly Vintage Space ? Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE! The Apollo Experience Report on Radiation is here, if you're curious: There's more about rockoons here: Also, thanks to Doctor Dad (as in my Dad) for helping me get my head around how annoying it is that radiation is measured in so many ways and coming up with the CT scan as a relatable reference point! ***And more even older space in my book, BREAKING THE CHAINS OF GRAVITY! You can order your copy on Amazon: Or get a signed hardcover edition on my website! - IT'S BACK ONLINE! :) (But orders are slow for the moment - waiting for books from my publisher!) My blog archives has lots of awesome olde timey space, too (and I'm looking for a new home for it, too!): I've also got a PATREON PAGE! If you're a fan of Vintage Space, please consider becoming a patron! I've set up a Patreon account so I can raise funds to buy the gear I'll need to make an awesome podcast and also work with professionals to make better content all around. Any help is so hugely appreciated. Connect on Facebook: Google : AmyShiraTeitel/posts Instagram: Twitter:
