10:00 am – 11:30 am

Instructor: Edward Grace

2017 will be the 47th anniversary of the Apollo 13 Mission. This course will provide a review of the Apollo Space Program from 1963 – 1972 through the eyes of a MIT engineer who was involved with the design of the Inertial Navigation System used for Command and Lunar Modules on all Apollo Missions. Stationed at Houston Mission Control for the duration of the Apollo 13 flight, our instructor was a member of the team awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for its work on the mission. Six missions landed on the moon, two orbited earth, and two orbited the moon. Join us for a look back at one of the most dynamic and fascinating NASA space programs of the 20th century.
