Apollo 11 Recovery

The Apollo 11 spacecraft is lifted from the ocean after its water landing (not shown) onto the deck of the USS Hornet. The crewmembers, Commander Neil A. Armstrong, Lunar Module Pilot Edwin E. Aldrin, Jr., and Command Module Pilot Michael Collins, are seen going from the spacecraft to the quarantine chambers. They talk to family members over the phone after their arrival at the Ellington Air Force Base. Footage shows the celebration of Armstrong's birthday and the release of the crew from quarantine.
