So, where's Stanley Kubrick?

Come to think of it... search for "Moon Machines" on youtube. You'll enjoy.
Qecbum
these are a lot of amazing photos, but there were even more. There was a fire at nasa and water/smoke destroyed a lot of originals (pt/1)
Qecbum
I had a teacher in highschool who had a former student who had a connection to someone who worked at nasa at the time before the fire (pt/2)
Qecbum
the student had lots of photos and donated them to my teacher. he probably is the only one left with these pictures at this point. (last pt)

Wow. I wish we were doing cool stuff like this today.

It's funny because the next post shows what happens when we try to do space stuff today.

Have you not heard of the International Space Station?

Yes, I am aware that we are doing "space stuff." But in 1960's going to the moon was a HUGE deal, and today that adventure seems lost a bit.

My teacher is currently part of a team that's working on the Mars Colonization Manual that will include everything you'd need to know in
bigjoemonger
Order to survive on mars. Physics, engineering, radiation health, psychology, pathology, toxicology... everything. They're planning to have
bigjoemonger
An earth supported colony on mars within 20 years and a fully self sustaining colony within 40 years.
TacosPlz
Working on getting to Mars right now, actually. The project is called Orion. Look that shit up, it's pretty neat.
Space2place
Yea the first test vehicle was launched Dec. 2014. I was privileged to see the bare prototype, among other things, in 2012..
geophphreigh
I will, thanks. I guess we just take it all for granted now; it doesn't seem as novel as it did then, so it's not so popularized.

I've been told it's not physically possible when the gravity is too low. My source is... the radio, but beyond that, no idea.

TheNSAiscomingforyouBatman
If you want to know the gear and film used. Cameras were modified Hasselblad 500's. They used 70mm film (same stuff Imax films are made on)
TheNSAiscomingforyouBatman
The image size are all 6x6cm. The actual emulsions used were kodak Ektarchrome SO-86 and SO-121. Kodak 2485 rated at ASA 16,000.
TheNSAiscomingforyouBatman
The Black and White emulsion used was Kodak Pantomatic. Most of the cameras are still on the moon as nasa only wanted the film backs.

Thank you for not uploading all of them. And thank you for uploading some.

So what's the deal with the vertical valley/canyon in this pic? It crosses the crater. Anyone?
spudcosmic
They're called rilles. If you were determined you could probably find this one's name.
Grindfather901
That's a big "if", spud comic. But thanks for the info.
JohnnyLawlessEsq
Probably a meteor that hit at a REALLY shallow angle. Wouldn't happen on earth, but since the moon has no atmosphere...
Funktastic15
not to nit pick but why is it that in photo number 9 the earth is bigger than it appears in photo number 11

And dumbasses try to argue that we've never actually been to the moon.

Where is Tom Hanks?
fortunateson1969
*Technically* He's in the first pic. Off to the left. Jack Swigert is holding the LiOH canister and Jim Lovell is handing him tubes.
Sauroctonus
Well, any pic that shows the Earth includes Tom Hanks.
trollmobile
I often wonder why no one ever went to the moon again after this.
spudcosmic
It's an incredibly dangerous and expensive mission. Anything a man can do a robot can do cheaper.
sarzaya
Proof! #2 shows a ghost on the moon!
Space2place
And you know whats even neater is how it looks like that ghost is wearing shades & sticking its tongue out @ the sun.. xD
skipweasel
Every one of them faked (removes tongue from cheek and grins at conspiracy nuts).
Doctortroojan
Big stash of photos released after photoshop is invented... convenient.
claynipple
They carefully photoshopped put the aliens
vinylspear
The moon landing was indeed faked however, Stanley Kubrick was so detail obsessed with realism that he insisted on filming on location

Chemical photography has been way ahead of digital resolution until recently, and still is for most affordable purposes.
AudoCurrekt
Mine was rhetoric... I wasn't being serious
AudoCurrekt
Still like your answer however
sweetnaivety
For some reason photo #9 looks very fake to me, especially in comparison to #11 .. not trying to say the landing was fake though.
Minoxus
I can see where you're coming from, but I'm pretty sure it has to do with orbits/timing of the pictures, maybe even differing zoom levels
sweetnaivety
(2) the picture just looks off, no matter what I look at. at best, I'd say it's just a composite.
sweetnaivety
I'm pretty sure the orbit isn't going to make earth look 10x bigger.. it's not just that though, the ground looks weird too.. everything in

As I started to scroll the thought crossed my mind that this crazy kid actually uploaded all 8000.

Make an acc called "ANewHDApolloPicEveryDay" and post one pic a day. 2.5 decades later (roughly) you will lots of imaginary internet points.

you would've crashed all of Imgur, and you knew it.

It struggles with 100 image albums at times. 8k HD photos would crash their servers twice.
