Getting it would mean we had completed
all of our mission objectives.

:36:06
We got her.
:36:13
I got it.
:36:16
Got something for you.
:36:17
After more than three hours
of hard work on the moon...

:36:20
I probably wasn't
the most imaginative person.

:36:23
Had I been thinking fully...
:36:25
that's when we would have taken
the picture with that timer.

:36:28
We could have shook hands
standing in front of Intrepid.

:36:32
It would have been a great picture,
but I didn't think of it.

:36:39
There was just one last thing to do.
:36:42
None of us had forgotten the reason
I was privileged enough to be there.

:36:45
We made it, C.C.
:36:48
We left C.C.'s wings
on the lunar surface.

:36:52
He's the reason there's four stars
on our mission patch, not just three.

:36:59
Then that was it.
:37:01
Our walk on the moon
was officially over.

:37:08
I had spent seven hours and 45 minutes
walking on the moon.

:37:13
In a person's lifetime,
that's nothing but a blink.

:37:17
But what my eyes witnessed there
at the Ocean of Storms...

:37:21
still fuels me...
:37:23
still fills me with a sense of wonder
that is hard to put into words.

:37:35
What a neat ride!
:37:37
Al said it was okay.
So was the flag.

:37:39
Neil and Buzz's ascent had knocked
the crap out of their flag.

:37:43
They could send a man to the moon,
but they couldn't think...

:37:45
to place the flag 50 feet away
from a rocket engine...

:37:47
so it wouldn't get blown over.
:37:49
- Check our range and range rate.
- Okay.

:37:58
Intrepid, Houston.
:37:59
You are ten seconds to LOS.
