Rotary Roundtable – Dick Hagar, Apollo Space Missions

Please join us for a discussion with Dick Hagar, who was a spacecraft operator for the Apollo space missions. He was a part of the team that tested the power in the area where the astronauts would stay as well as repairs and modifications needed. The first Apollo launches were unmanned launches.  For these unmanned launches, computers were used to control the operations that were later done by the astronauts during takeoff and orbit.
