I'll take this opportunity to promote to the technnically inclined, that it is so worth checking out a beautiful Apollo-related project called NASSP which has been trying to faithfully allow you to simulate all the Apollo missions. The computer in the simulator, even, is running a port of the real apollo guidance computer, matched to their exact version for each mission, thanks to the work of volunteers and incredible folks who not only have gone through the effort to find and document all of it but even to bring a real apollo guidance computer to life (check out the CuriousMarc youtube channel... just mind blowing).

Like many people, the 13 movie obviously sparked my curiosity and wonder about the whole ordeal, but despite habitually visiting the Smithsonian, all the reading, etc., nothing has brought me as close to an appreciation for just how remarkable the whole endeavor was than to try to live it in this simulation.
