:15:03
We know that you were
a combat pilot in the Korean War...
:15:07
that you earned a PhD at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology...
:15:11
in orbital mechanics.
:15:14
We know that
you're a spiritual man.
:15:16
Your wife is named Joan...
:15:18
and your life has been
chronicled and featured...
:15:21
and photographed...
:15:23
ever since the mission of Apollo 11
placed you in the world spotlight.
:15:28
You're also gonna be the second man
to walk on the face of the moon.
:15:34
But, shoot, Buzz, wouldn't you like
to be the guy that gets out first?
:15:40
Well, Emmett, the important thing
to remember here is that...
:15:45
Neil and I
will be landing on the moon...
:15:47
at the same time.
:15:50
Who gets out first
is relatively insignificant.
:15:57
We'll review all this
with Deke later.
:16:04
I've been reviewing
the flight plan...
:16:06
both the current one and last year's,
as well as the Gemini flight plans...
:16:10
and there's something I think could bear
some scrutiny as we head into the sims.
:16:17
Neil, it's this question about
which one of us should get out first.
:16:21
Have you given that any thought?
:16:25
To be honest with you, Buzz, I've
been more concerned with the landing.
:16:29
In Gemini the pilot did the E.V.A.
While the commander stayed on board.
:16:33
Buzz, look.
:16:37
I appreciate the historical
significance of this thing...
:16:41
and I'm not gonna
rule anything out right now...
:16:44
but whatever we decide...
:16:45
it should be what's best
for the mission.
