New Delhi: Now you can soak in the new renderings of iconic Lunar imagery from Apollo missions on Flickr and get to see a bit of Space in high-resolution. Over 8,400 high-res photographs taken by Apollo astronauts during their missions to the Moon have now been published in a Flickr gallery by the Project Apollo Archive, a repository created by Kipp Teague in 1999. The collection has new, unprocessed versions of the original NASA photo scans.
The Flickr gallery currently includes only the photography from the original Johnson Space Center scans that Teague received, which means there won’t be any high-resolution images from Apollo 8 or 13 yet, The Planetary Society notes.
The collection includes every photo taken on the lunar surface by astronauts with their chest-mounted Hasselblad cameras, along with numerous other Hasselblad photos shot from Earth and lunar orbit, as well as during the journey between the two.
