Could you elaborate please?
Yes, A PLANET FULL OF WHITE TRASH.....STEER CLEAR!.................
I’m sure a few of mine are still in trees.
Man those things were fun.

Let’s not forget, the people of that age also lived in harmony with nature, unlike the people of the new modern time.
Did it ring like a bell again and make an equal depthed crater as the rest of the impacts? Just wondering..
The moon folks there now really get sick of loud noises on the roof
Maybe here: Is Apollo 11’s Lunar Module Still In Orbit Around The Moon 52 Years Later?

But did you know that the moon does not rotate? The side of the moon that can be seen from earth never changes? It the same view that has been seen from earth for as long as man has been on the planet.
I’m doing LOTS of Goodwill runs...cleaning everything out. I’m headed there in a few minutes.
That’s a great idea...I hadn’t thought of donating it. Thanks.
Astronaut Michael Collins lost not one, but TWO Hasselblads!
The first one was in 1966 when he performed a space walk outside Gemini 10.
It became Sweden’s first satellite, but probably de-orbited and burned up by now.
The second one was aboard Apollo 11 three years later. He left it floating in the CM cabin, went to grab it to take picture thru the window. It had floated away, not to be found again until just before the LEM departed for the lunar surface.
He took some great pictures with it.
I hope it didn’t have Covid.
Now we’ll have to wear masks on the Moon to be safe.
I hope it missed Colonel Hawkins.
Yes indeed...
We can believe Wang Wenbin, no matter what he says...
The Moon’s period of rotation is equal to its period of orbit.
There could be TWO Apollo ascent stages orbiting the Moon, 10 and 11.
Didn’t know that…

Scroll down to the chart, to Apollos 10 and 11.
If it did not rotate exactly once each orbit of the Earth, by keeping one side facing the sun instead for example, we would see all sides from Earth during each lunar orbit of the Earth. (That would involve the moon rotating once during each orbit of the Sun.) From the Sun’s point of view, our moon rotates about a dozen times each time we go around the Sun)
Depending upon your frame of reference, pretty much everything rotates one way or another…. :-)
Michael Collins, Gemini 10, fumbled the camera during an EVA. It drifted out of reach.
