58 years ago it was Earthrise, and now we have Earthset.

Have been waiting for this! Can’t wait to see all the photos the crew took. We are going learn so much and get such beautiful shots

I hope they release a super high resolution version of this shot. It’s unreal

 if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you’re in starts playing different tunes
I’ll see you on the dark side of the Moon…

This is absolutely amazing and beautiful and just astonishing. I’m lost for words. Every bit of history. Every bit of life, is sitting right there on that rock guys. Wild stuff. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SPACE.

it feels weird and awesome to see such a clear picture, like we’re so used to seeing retro-style film grain images of the earth from the moon… since most of em were from the 60s-70s.

Love this photo. Question though, there was a picture before where it showed Earth looking pretty small as they were going away. Here it looks massive. I’m not a photographer, just wondering how do they achieve this effect?
Obvious part of me says zoom, but I figure there’s more to it than that (or maybe there isn’t :D)

It’s a shame that Anders didn’t live to see this moment.

How deep and how wide are those craters?

Why is there no stars ? Also how is the moon somewhat lit despite the earth blocking the sun? I’m confused

Why didn’t they find a means to light up the dark side of the moon for this trip? Beyond testing equipment, it seemed somewhat pointless.

Where is the Pink Floyd prism?
We need to form a true world space agency
Science shouldn’t be limited to single countrys
Imagine what a world space agency could do with a budget of 1 trillion
I was promised mushroom alien towers not this awe inspiring, natural vista.
