In the Apollo 11 mission, how and where the service module rotate itself 180 degrees? To enter in Lunar orbit, it performed a retrograde burn, and then to enter into Trans-earth orbit a regular burn. The orientation had to be opposite, I believe. Please help me understand this.1yr ⋅ arjitraj_ ⋅ r/apollo

When the United States received intelligence that the Soviets might attempt a circumlunar Zond flight, NASA made the decision to send Apollo 8 to the moon in December 1968. Boldest decision NASA ever made. Thoughts?2yr ⋅ peridotite72 ⋅ r/apollo
