And now after he photoshopped them pixel by pixel they are totally amazing.
I suppose we are also supposed to believe that all this stuff was found in an abandoned McDonalds near Mar-A-Lago

With this amazing 35,000 photos from 50 years ago being released, I can barely wait now for the billion photos that most assuredly will be released 200 years from now.
(higher numbers reflect inflation)
Photo restorer Andy Saunders is an honorable person for respecting the photos from Apollo 11.
No. You're asked to believe that a group of volunteers set up shop in an abandoned McDonalds using obsolete computer equipment which they restored to read and recover data from those tapes.
Need to see the originals. 6x6cm negs from a Hasselblad can be pretty sweet.
Sweden’s first artificial satellite was a Hasselblad camera lost by Michael Collins(?) during a Gemini spacewalk.
I guess you can freeze anything and it will keep indefinitely
Alice Kramden?
“You’re asked to believe that a group of volunteers set up shop in an abandoned McDonalds using obsolete computer equipment which they restored to read and recover data from those tapes.”
I have read lots of Sci-Fi in the last 50 years. Even L. Ron Hubbard wrote stuff more believable than Nasa.
Your response is both irrational and insulting.
Not everybody is mired in mediocrity.
Have a nice day.
Ha Ha! Good one.
That moon’s got freezer burn.
... we never landed on the moon ... for some reason, we had a technological breakthrough that let us go in the 60s - 70s - but almost 60 years later not a single country has ever stepped on the moon. Every country that planned to do it, canceled it. Tesla can land booster rockets on a quarter, but no moon for you!
When I was a kid in the mid ‘70s my dad was doing work with NASA and someone there gave him some color slides that supposedly were unreleased photos taken on one of the Apollo missions (not sure if it was Apollo 11). We plugged in the slide projector, looked at them once (cool!) and my dad put them in a drawer. I saw them a couple of times after that, still sitting but when he passed and my mom moved I really wanted to find them and they were nowhere to be found. There was nothing spectacular, like aliens or pyramids on the moon or anything but still, bummer.
Do not expect that all pics are from space.
When looking at new NASA moon pictures, I now wonder which were taken by Stanley Kubrick.
Some say man cannot get thru the Van Allen Radiation belts.
I know the lunar module pilot for Apollo 16. I’ve known dozens of NASA engineers from that period and Chris Kraft. We went to the moon.
As a young guy I ran all of Johnson Space Center. Until I came across John Glen who was getting a ride on STS-95 and I told him he was a dick for bumping someone else who had trained for the flight for years. Oops, no more getting in the back door at Johnson.
We went to the moon.
