The heavier the spacecraft, the harder it is to launch. and fuel is heavy. so it was critical to pinpoint the fuel needed, add a cushion, then take no more than necessary. but now, because the landing was taking far longer than planned, the fuel was almost gone. mission control wanted neil to take as much time as he needed and fly the lm as near empty as possible only because they wanted him to make the landing. but if he ran out of fuel above the surface, in all likelihood the lm would crash onto the moon. so they were trying to time it to the last possible second before calling an abort—calling off the landing. which detail from the excerpt identifies a solution? they were trying to time it to the last possible second they wanted him to make the landing the fuel was almost gone and fuel is heavy

the answer would be. they were trying to time it to the last possible second.

hope this helps

The answer to the question: Which detail from the excerpt identifies a solution, would be, the first one: They were trying to time it to the last possible second.

Explanation:

The reason is that all the other choices are simply part of the process and explanation of the why´s, but the only one that shows an attempt by the experts to solve the issue of how to help the LM land on the moon, while at the same time not endangering the lives of the astrounats on it, especially Neil Armstrong, is the first one. This one shows that the experts working with the astronauts had a plan, a solution to the issue of whether to land, or not, on the moon. This is why this is the answer.
