Live From The Moon

In 1972, I attempted to take pictures of the last two moon landings, Apollo 16 and 17. The picture quality had finally gotten to the point where the images were more than a blurry mess! I only had a simple, single focus Kodak camera, but I did what I could with it. Black and white film gave the best result. I did try color, but the light level was just too low for good results. Here’s a sampling of those approximately 100 photos I took from that time. Not bad from a CRT! (Flat screen LED TV? Science fiction!).

Note for the younger members: The dates on the edges of the photos are the date they were printed.

For those interested, here is a link to the photo album of all the shots.
