In this interview, Russell Schweickart talks about his early life and how he came to become one of America's elite NASA astronauts in the 1960s. He describes in detail the Apollo 9 mission and how a bout of space sickness almost prevented him from conducting the spacewalk which was the first test of the spacesuit which would be used on the moon. He also discusses how, had Frank Borman disclosed a bout of space sickness on Apollo 8, it would have been possible to prepare for that possibility on Apollo 9.
