Gene Kranz was great as was Chris Craft, it's in no small amount due to Gene Kranz' expertise, that the Apollo 13 crew were brought back safely

We were living in Miami in 1969 as my Dad took a sabbatical there. One of the few things I remember (that and almost severing three toes on my right foot) is seeing Apollo 11 in the hangar when we went on a tour shortly before it blasted off.
It was unbeleivalby huge.

That was amazing.
Say what you like about Elon Musk but his vision to get this up and running from a standing start is astonishing.
