Sad news has come that Stan Lebar, developer of the lunar TV camera has passed away.  Stan was a guest of Conversations with Apollo in 2008, and as a tribute to him, we present a rerun of one of our most interesting interviews.

You can listen to it here.

RIP, Stan.  We couldn't have seen the moon without you.

To close out 2009, our guest is Retired Navy Captain Charles Smiley, XO of Helicopter Squadron 4 , tasked with fishing astronauts from Apollo 8, 10, 11, 12 and 13 out of the Pacific Ocean after Splashdown. Chuck was the pilot of the astronaut recovery helicopter  #66 for Apollo 10 and Apollo 13.
