Comments on: Space Age Style: 20 Forgotten Photos from the Apollo 11 Mission http://www.pdnphotooftheday.com/2009/06/1551 A daily selection by the editors of Photo District News Thu, 11 Mar 2010 19:06:49 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: SamuraiMarine http://www.pdnphotooftheday.com/2009/06/1551/comment-page-1#comment-2476 SamuraiMarine Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:25:08 +0000 http://www.pdnphotooftheday.com/?p=1551#comment-2476 These pictures just make me that much prouder to that lived through part of the height of that part of the space race. I can remember waiting for every issue of National Geographic to see what new pictures would be published from the various missions. I remember building, from scratch, out of cardboard, toothpick and painted aluminum foil, a model of Skylab. Looking back on it today, it seems like there was so much more to look forward to, back then. Our problems seemed so mundane compared to what we, the world, are going through now.

They also seem to be damn happy to have lived through it. It was a few minutes of peace on earth. Time will give us the truth. So come on, let's hurry up and go back.

It's amazing that the so toy-like spaceship made the trip to the Moon if it was real.... ( I presume even the landing on the moon was helped by the moon people)....Toy-like ship... considering the law of nature...

I have a hard time seeing how any of this could have been faked. I wasn't born until 85, but it's all just as real to me. Great photo collection by the way. It's nice to see the 'behind the scene' shots that are never published. It’s sad to see how many people these days think that all this was just a hoax.

Can you imagine what was going thru their minds at that news conference the night before the launch? No matter how much planning and practicing had gone on, nobody knew what they were going to find when they got there. The whole 'giant step for for mankind' was such an understatement!
