At long tables by the simulator, rows of equipment are shown which (we think) were either going to be installed in the simulator, or placed there to familiarize astronaut crews and NASA engineers with the components. This was probably filmed in Houston, Texas, although there was also a simulator of this type at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. According to a NASA website, "The Command Module Simulator was used to train the Apollo astronauts. It was used in conjunction with the Lunar Module Simulator. The simulated command module was patterned after the actual spacecraft. Although motion was not simulated physically, the sensations were provided by a visual system. Realism of the mission was maintained by simulating all aspects of flight that the crew would encounter, including system sounds, failures, fire, life support, and food preparation. Three simulation engineers conducted the training missions and had the capability to insert malfunctions to enhance crew training." Motion picture films don't last forever; many have already been lost or destroyed. For almost two decades, we've worked to collect, scan and preserve the world as it was captured on 35mm, 16mm and 8mm movies -- including home movies, industrial films, and other non-fiction. If you have endangered films you'd like to have scanned, or wish to donate celluloid to Periscope Film so that we can share them with the world, we'd love to hear from you.
