Apollo Orbital Images
In the following pages we'll honor the richness of the Apollo program by sharing a look at many of the seldom seen but wonderful orbital images. I invite you to come explore the moon through the eyes of our Apollo astronauts, to gaze in awe at the same spellbinding and alien panoramas they encountered so many decades ago.
Time goes on and the original mission films deteriorate. It has become a top priority to transfer this treasure of our space history into a more permanent, accessible and duplicable format. I salute all who have contributed to the cause of preserving this photography via high quality digital representations. It is a long standing desire of mine and an idea whose time has come for the Apollo missions' imagery to be easily reviewable by generations of Americans, for many the first time ever.
The hard work, expense, and imaging diligence given by many of the best to have put their hands to this worthy effort is represented here in the images.
This collection is far from complete, a work in motion. Contributions are accepted and welcomed.
Who knows, maybe we can even get NASA to help out?
