This short video montage honors the events of the Apollo 11 Mission.

To commemorate the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11, NASA released partially restored video of a series of 15 memorable moments from the July 20 moonwalk. The source material for the restoration project is the best of the available broadcast-format video. Lowry Digital, Burbank, Calif., is significantly enhancing the video using the company’s proprietary software technology and other restoration techniques. The video is part of a larger restoration project that will be completed in September and provide a newly restored high definition video of the entire Apollo 11 moonwalk. The completed restoration will provide the public with the highest quality video of this historic event.

  • You know, it's sad to think that the last truly ambitious thing mankind has done happened 40 years ago.

    At the time this happened, just think of what people imagined 2009 to be like. The possibilities were endless. We'd probably have colonized the moon, mars if not more by 2009, discovered alien races, have flying cars, floating buildings etc etc etc.

    Now think about how we, in 2009, imagine 2049 to be. I don't think a whole lot different than now, honestly. Where has our drive gone? :-(

  • The Earth's magnetosphere protected the astronauts journey to the moon from solar winds. Russia didn't take Earth's magnetic activity into consideration, but American scientists did. There is a pause in the astronauts speaking because it takes a few seconds for the transmissions to reach earth and then a few more seconds for a reply to go back to the astronauts thereafter. As for the "crosses brushed out from the skies" and "upside down images," I don't really know what you're talking about.
