I know that some of us are photographers, and many are interested in the practice of science and exploration. This is a great story and video about the capture of one of the most iconic photographs in history.

Quote:How Bill Anders took one of the most amazing photographs in human history. A beautiful little film by the Goddard Space Flight Center that seems like it was made especially for photographers.

Thank you. A shame we have to look at 45 year old photos to witness the greatest quest of mankind, permanently hijacked by social bullshit.

You're welcome! I think it was more cost and risk, though. There's no reason for people to be on the moon. Yet, anyhow. It's cool as hell, but robots get more information cheaper, without having to keep a body alive.
