    I like the max zoom. I didn’t realise they’d gone back to the moon just 4 months later. For the first moon trip I was just over a month old, and apparently watched it on my mother’s knee… aahhhh.

    Yeah, who isn’t linking to it today?

    I was hoping that at full zoom we’d see the Clangers. Or maybe Wallace & Gromit.

    Another nostalgia trip. I met Gene Cernan several times in Houston during the 1980s as he was a director of a company I worked for. His entire office was stuffed with Apollo memorabilia. Nice guy.

    Did I ever mention that m’colleague Morsey and I did the first analysis of the deuterium/hydrogen ratio in the lunar regolith? It was the first experiment run on a new static vacuum mass spectrometer we built for analysing methane. The soil we used was, I believe, from the first moon landing. I carried the sample around in my wallet for years afterwards, until NASA asked for it back. No, really.

    Strange how when you zoom in you don’t actually see any evidence of the moon landings. More proof that man has never set foot on the moon :)
