Because they were only travelling about 24,000 mph when they reached the planned velocity during the Trans Lunar Injection burn. This second burn of the third stage (S-IVB) took them from about 17,500 mph of Low Earth Orbit to about 24,000 mph aimed for where the moon would be in 2.5 days.The burn lasted between 5.5 and 6 minutes, at the end of which the S-IVB engine was shut down and the Command Module, Service Module, and Lunar Module separated from the emptied rocket.From that point on, the Apollo mission was coasting toward the moon, gradually slowing down due to the Earth’s gravity. By the time the spacecraft was 80% to the moon, it had slowed from 24,000 mph to about 2,000 mph relative to the Earth, but now the closer moon’s gravity was stronger so it began to fall towards the moon, settling into lunar orbit with a retrorocket burn from the SM.Also, the trajectory was longer than 250,000 miles because the moon’s orbital motion required the Apollo craft to curve diagonally to reach and orbit the moon rather than flying perpendicular to the moon’s orbital velocity.

The benefits, man!I used to handle accounts of customers who had upwards of $250,000 credit lines. Millionaires who’d drop $30k without a second thought and pay the balance off at the end of the month before they incurred any interest or fees.They did it for the benefits.Many people think rich folks just spend money all willy-nilly, but the fact is that most rich people got rich by being careful with money and seeking out the best deals. If you had the option of paying $10,000 for something and getting only that thing OR paying $10,000 and getting cash back or air miles in addition to that thing, which option would you choose? You’re paying it off at the end of the month for no interest anyway, so why not get the benefit?The credit card benefits for rich people are even better than those for us commoners. I remember a couple of cards we issued that had “concierge services” attached. With these cards, you’d literally have the direct number for a guy who had an “in” with organizations, venues, and service providers all over the world. Call up the concierge, tell him what you need, and he’ll handle all the details for you.Other card benefits like those on AMEX’s Centurion Card (the “Black Card”) are so exclusive that the company won’t even tell poor people what they are. Luckily, we have the Internet, so we can find out!The Centurion card offers stuff like:Elite, high-dollar hotel upgrades and perksExclusive SkyMiles program and lounge membershipCruises and car rentals and special events, oh my!Not to mention the fact that when you’re out for a meal with your millionaire buddies, you can say, “I got it,” and nonchalantly toss your anodized titanium card out on the table and hear the oh-so-satisfying *clang* of self-indulgent excess!

The attack on Gallipoli Peninsula in WWI would have to be in the running. It began with a failed naval attack and proceeded to a landing on a beach about 5m wide that then immediately transformed into a steep hill with the enemy occupying the high ground. Here it is from the air.And here is a pic from the time.The invasion began on 25 April 1915 and ended in January 1916 having captured no territory. Some 480,000 Allied forces took part in the Gallipoli Campaign, at a cost of more than 250,000 casualties, including some 46,000 dead[1].25 April is now celebrated in Australia and New Zealand as ANZAC Day on which our fallen men are remembered.Footnotes[1] Battle of Gallipoli
