Actually, the return from the moon had to be crossing the moon's L1 zone
at something better than 1 km/s, perhaps at 1.5 if not nearly 2 km/s,
and from that point on it would have been increasing in velocity as
being pulled towards Earth, giving it a rather spiffy orbital reentry
velocity that only a great deal of aerobraking could have managed to
have moderated that velocity down to the dull roar of being similar to
but still faster than the shuttle reentry velocity.

Is there any replicated proof that our NASA/Apollo wizards spent any
actual time within the moon's L1? (such as most of their time, as their
otherwise fully robotic portions of their mission went into lunar orbit)
