It was a massive undertaking. Hard to believe what they were able to accomplish with drafting board and a slide rule. Then again, the Egyptians and other cultures were able to accomplish quite a bit with far less than that.

Several years ago we went down to Houston and visited the Johnson Space Center. Got to see the original mission control where Gene Kranz ran the show. They also have the actual Apollo 17 Saturn V disassembled and laying on its side. Never realized how big that thing was. Seeing it up close really brings it home.
