There are few men left who could sit down and give you a detailed first-hand account of the entire U.S. Space Program.
Don Nichols was a NASA insider who began his career during the Mercury program (the first manned U.S. space flights) and retired while the Space Shuttle was still the world's dominant form of manned orbital flight.
Nichols worked on Cold War era fighter-interceptors, the X-15 rocket plane, the guidance system for the Pershing missile, and all the way to the mighty Saturn rocket that pushed the Apollo capsules to the moon as if it were the hand of God.
Nichols was a player in America's cutting edge aerospace technology for decades. This conversation is a fascinating and detailed breakdown of man's greatest achievement: the conquest of outer space.
