1984) Seymour "Sy" Abraham Liebergot (born February 15, 1936, in Camden, New Jersey) is a retired NASA flight controller, serving during the Apollo program.

Liebergot was an EECOM controller and was responsible for the electrical and environmental systems on board the Command Module.

He began his career in 1963 with North American Aviation after graduating from California State University, Los Angeles.

[3] Ida spiraled into a nervous breakdown when Sol had an affair, attempting to kill Sy and his sister Phyllis in 1942.

[3] In 1954, after turning 18, he decided to join the Army to take some time to receive technical training and figure out his life plans.

[3] He graduated from LACC after five semesters and enrolled in California State University at Los Angeles (CSLA) to finish the last two years of his degree.

[3] In 1988, Liebergot started singing lessons again (the last time was in high school), and he completed Scuba Divemaster training in 1989.

[3][4][6] Their division later won a contract with NASA to build a part of the Saturn V lunar launch rocket.

[3][5][6] After 18 months, he tired of his position and joined the Flight Control Division in Houston, where he was a CSM Sequential Systems specialist, an advisor in the back room.

[3][5][6] In the 1966 AS-201 (Apollo/Saturn) mission, the first CSM test flight, Liebergot was still contracted to NASA and he served in the back room as a Sequential Systems specialist.

[3] Becoming a NASA employee later that year, Liebergot served as the Operations & Procedures Officer (O&P) in the MOCR on AS-202, the second unmanned test flight.

[3][7] Liebergot started as an Electrical, Environmental and COMmunication systems (EECOM) flight controller trainee on Apollo 8.

[3][4] With the close of ASTP, Liebergot moved to work on the Shuttle spacecraft as Lead EECOM, gathering knowledge and developing new procedures and rules.

[3] A couple of years later, Liebergot was hired to help with the Weightless Environment Training Facility (WETF) at the JSC.

[3][5][8] The shock closed the valves to fuel cells 1 and 3 as well, leaving only a third of the electrical power generation system working.

[3] Liebergot worked with his back room support to figure out the issue, giving the astronaut crew instructions, and they eventually realized that they had lost two fuel cells.

[3][5] Liebergot was part of the Apollo 13 Mission Operations Team awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for their efforts to successfully save the astronauts.
