All 8,400 Apollo Moon Mission Photos Just Went Online.

[securitybreach]

Every photo ever taken by Apollo astronauts on moon missions is now available online, on the Project Apollo Archive's Flickr account. That's about 8,400 images, grouped by the roll of film they were shot on. You can finally see all the blurry images, mistakes, and unrecognized gems for yourself. The unprocessed Hasseblad photos (basically raw scans of the negatives) uploaded by the Project Apollo Archive offer a fascinating behind-the-scenes peek at the various moon missions…as well as lots and lots (and lots) of photos detailing the surface of the moon. Here's a very small taste. All photos by NASA/The Project Apollo Archive.

Conspiracy theorists were right then. If you do the math it would take 46 years to Photoshop all 8400 pictures

They left the place looking like Bondai beach after a night session in the early 70's .Litter louts.

Wow! They took that many photos out there in the Arizona desert? Kodak must have love that.

the folks that scanned those didn't know how to set up a scanner, methinks - the contrast is horrible on many of them considering that that was military grade film exposed on an exceptionally high-end camera.

 

High end for 1969+ isn't as high end as nowadays

Photographers would dispute that statement. Scanners however are a different matter and your statement would hold up
