I've seen much better results using Waterfall. Please, give me thousands of pages of well thought out project documentation before starting development in earnest.

It actually occured to me earlier that maybe Agile wouldn't have been the right thing for the Apollo project. But then again, I don't think money was an issue. Obviously, the goal was also fixed.
That said, it would be interesting to see if not some principles now called Agile might be have been observed, e.g.
- Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.
- Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.
