Come now, he still managed to time the final walk scene to within <100ms of perfection. It's probably luck but still, you have to admire to feat.

You do realize he have recorded the walk at any point? The shot of the rocket launching could have been a month later.

How are you suggesting they composited the two sequences (Burke walking, rocket launching) together in 1978?

What? I'm talking the final scene where he says "...that" and the thing immediately lights up. Absent a green screen, that's damn impressive.
