How the Apollo 11 Launch Replay screensaver works
The saver steps through a real, curated timeline of the actual Apollo 11 countdown and launch, from T-minus 15 seconds through Trans-Lunar Injection.
A live mission clock counts through real T-minus and T-plus times, synced to each real historical milestone.
Real, well-documented callouts from the actual mission — "liftoff", "tower clear", "Go for TLI" — appear at their real moments.
Once the replay reaches the end of the real sequence, it loops back to the start of the countdown.
A worked example
The clock ticks down through the real final ten seconds before igniting into "liftoff, we have a liftoff" at the exact real historical moment it happened.
