*18 MAY 1969*
.
-βapollo 10″ was the 4th manned mission in the ‘united states apollo space program’-
.
(the 2nd mission (after ‘apollo 8’) to orbit the ‘moon’)
(launched on ’18 may 1969′, it was the F mission: a “dress rehearsal” for the first Moon landing, testing all of the components and procedures, just short of actually landing)
(the Lunar Module (LM) followed a descent orbit to within 8.4 nautical miles (15.6 km) of the lunar surface, at the point where powered descent for landing would normally begin)
(its success enabled the first landing to be attempted on the Apollo 11 mission two months later)
(according to the 2002 Guinness World Records, ‘Apollo 10′ set the record for the highest speed attained by a manned vehicle: 39,897 km/h (11.08 km/s or 24,791 mph) on ’26 may 1969’, during the return from the ‘moon’)
(the mission’s call signs included the names of the Peanuts characters ‘Charlie Brown’ and ‘snoopy’, which became Apollo 10’s semi-official mascots)
(“peanuts” creator ‘charles schulz’ also drew some mission-related artwork for NASA)
