Hearing Moon River -- Petra Haden and Bill Frisell

The Apollo Landing Deniers Are Suddenly Very Nervous




This is one of those geek moments: The entire run of films from the Apollo missions to the moon are being opened up to the public via the Internet:

A new digital archive – created through a collaboration between ASU and NASA – is making available on the Internet high-resolution scans of original Apollo flight films. These startling images will be accessible to both researchers and the general public, to browse or download, at: apollo.sese.asu.edu.

The moon images filmed by astronauts during NASA’s Apollo program have never been seen in high-resolution detail by the public, or even by most lunar scientists.

The new digital scanning project at ASU will use the original Apollo flight films. Previous scanning projects have been limited in scope, and none have used the original films that came back from the moon.

This is awesome. The very first of the scans are already up at the project site; more will be coming online as they get scanned. This is as close as most of us are going to get to the moon; enjoy it.
