I think about this from time to time. Maybe somebody has some data:<br /><br />If "the accident" on Apollo 1 not happened, and assuming it flew a successful mission, when do you think we would have attempted the lunar landing?<br /><br />My best guess (based on much study and reading) is still sometime in 1969, maybe late '68. My reason for this is that we would have taken our "safe path" and had several Earth orbit test missions and more Lunar orbit missions that would have dragged out the project.<br /><br />p.s. Was anybody here around in NASA at that time (1967?). Was morale really totally low after the accident? <br /><br />Also, do you think that Apollos 18, 19, and 20 would have been still cut due to budget slashing?<br /><br />Thanks.<br /><br />-dk-
