Jako pilot velitelsk\u00e9ho modulu mise Apollo 15 na M\u011bs\u00edc v roce 1971 zah\u00e1jil Al Worden pr\u016fkopnickou cestu pr\u016fzkumu vesm\u00edru. B\u011bhem \u0161estidenn\u00ed mise Worden str\u00e1vil t\u0159i dny zcela s\u00e1m na ob\u011b\u017en\u00e9 dr\u00e1ze M\u011bs\u00edce a stal se tak nejosam\u011blej\u0161\u00edm \u010dlov\u011bkem, jak\u00fd kdy existoval. Provedl rozs\u00e1hl\u00e9 v\u011bdeck\u00e9 experimenty, v\u010detn\u011b fotografov\u00e1n\u00ed slab\u00fdch objekt\u016f ve vesm\u00edru a po\u0159izov\u00e1n\u00ed sn\u00edmk\u016f mapuj\u00edc\u00edch povrch M\u011bs\u00edce.<\/p>\n\n
Wordenov\u00fdm nejpam\u00e1tn\u011bj\u0161\u00edm z\u00e1\u017eitkem bylo sledov\u00e1n\u00ed Zem\u011b, jak vych\u00e1z\u00ed nad obzorem M\u011bs\u00edce. Popsal to jako \u201enejv\u011bt\u0161\u00ed \u010d\u00e1st v\u0161eho\u201c, okam\u017eik \u00fa\u017easu a \u00fa\u017easu, na kter\u00fd nikdy nezapomene.<\/p>\n\n
Kr\u00e1tce po triumf\u00e1ln\u00edm n\u00e1vratu Apolla 15 na Zemi se Worden a jeho pos\u00e1dka ocitli zapleteni do skand\u00e1lu. Prodali podepsan\u00e9 po\u0161tovn\u00ed ob\u00e1lky se suven\u00fdry, kter\u00e9 si vzali na palubu sv\u00e9 kosmick\u00e9 lodi, co\u017e byl \u010din, kter\u00fd poru\u0161oval p\u0159edpisy NASA. V d\u016fsledku toho jim bylo nav\u017edy zak\u00e1z\u00e1no l\u00e9tat do vesm\u00edru.<\/p>\n\n
Zat\u00edmco pos\u00e1dka Apolla 14 se \u00fadajn\u011b zapletla do podobn\u00e9ho incidentu v p\u0159edchoz\u00edm roce, NASA to p\u0159ehl\u00e9dla kv\u016fli \u00fa\u010dasti Alana Sheparda, prvn\u00edho Ameri\u010dana ve vesm\u00edru. V p\u0159\u00edpad\u011b Wordena se v\u0161ak veden\u00ed NASA c\u00edtilo nuceno podniknout disciplin\u00e1rn\u00ed opat\u0159en\u00ed a odvol\u00e1valo se na pot\u0159ebu zachovat integritu vesm\u00edrn\u00e9ho programu.<\/p>\n\n
Pot\u00e9, co opustil letectvo, v\u011bnoval se Worden r\u016fzn\u00fdm \u010dinnostem. Kandidoval do Kongresu, l\u00e9tal se sightseeingov\u00fdmi vrtuln\u00edky a vyv\u00edjel mikroprocesory pro letadla. Odchod do d\u016fchodu se uk\u00e1zal jako neuspokojiv\u00e1 volba, proto\u017ee Worden tou\u017eil po smyslu a napln\u011bn\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
V sou\u010dasn\u00e9 dob\u011b Worden aktivn\u011b propaguje svou novou knihu \u201eFalling to Earth\u201c, kter\u00e1 popisuje jeho misi Apollo 15 a n\u00e1sledn\u00fd skand\u00e1l. Z\u016fst\u00e1v\u00e1 v\u00e1\u0161niv\u00fdm zast\u00e1ncem pr\u016fzkumu vesm\u00edru a zd\u016fraz\u0148uje jeho v\u00fdznam pro v\u011bdeck\u00e9 objevy, technologick\u00fd pokrok a inspiraci budouc\u00edch generac\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
Worden v\u011b\u0159\u00ed, \u017ee budoucnost pr\u016fzkumu vesm\u00edru spo\u010d\u00edv\u00e1 v kombinaci pilotovan\u00fdch a nepilotovan\u00fdch mis\u00ed. Zat\u00edmco roboti a sondy mohou poskytnout cenn\u00e9 \u00fadaje, lidsk\u00e1 p\u0159\u00edtomnost je nezbytn\u00e1 pro hloubkov\u00fd v\u011bdeck\u00fd v\u00fdzkum a p\u0159izp\u016fsoben\u00ed se nep\u0159edv\u00eddan\u00fdm okolnostem.<\/p>\n\n
Povzbuzuje mlad\u00e9 lidi, kte\u0159\u00ed se zaj\u00edmaj\u00ed o kari\u00e9ru ve vesm\u00edru, aby si \u0161li za sv\u00fdmi sny.

Al Worden p\u0159ipisuje roli sv\u00fdch hrdin\u016f n\u011bkolika lidem. Jeho d\u011bde\u010dek mu v\u0161t\u00edpil silnou pracovn\u00ed mor\u00e1lku a smysl pro zodpov\u011bdnost. \u0158editel jeho st\u0159edn\u00ed \u0161koly ho akademicky podporoval, co\u017e mu umo\u017enilo nav\u0161t\u011bvovat vysokou \u0161kolu bez finan\u010dn\u00ed z\u00e1t\u011b\u017ee.<\/p>\n\n
Worden\u016fv kolega Michael Collins, pilot velitelsk\u00e9ho modulu Apolla 11, na n\u011bj ud\u011blal trval\u00fd dojem. Collins\u016fv profesionalismus, laskavost a kompetence inspirovaly Wordena, aby usiloval o dokonalost ve sv\u00e9 vlastn\u00ed kari\u00e9\u0159e.<\/p>\n\n
Mise Apolla 15 sehr\u00e1la kl\u00ed\u010dovou roli v pokroku lidsk\u00e9ho pr\u016fzkumu vesm\u00edru. Prok\u00e1zala proveditelnost del\u0161\u00edch m\u011bs\u00ed\u010dn\u00edch pobyt\u016f a hodnotu v\u011bdeck\u00e9 experimentace ve vesm\u00edru.<\/p>\n\n
