Planet Earth: From the Moon

Some amazing images of the Earth "Rising" and "Falling" as viewed from a Japanese Satellite orbiting close to the Moon.

With such clear, high definition images now being available in an orbit very close to the Moon, it is hoped that the area of the Moon Landings can now be photographed, showing the Stars and Stripes Flag held in place with a wire coat hanger, a footprint (or two), and some tyre marks in the dust....
...and also the remains of the luckless Photographer who was doomed to stay behind to relay images of the final lift-off of the Space Shuttle back to Earth.

That would be nice....

F.... ;)...!

Wonder if they brough the photographer a cheeseburger and copy of playboy? Must be getting hungry and lonely by now. ;D

Well Paul either your theory of non-moon-visitation will either be shortly proved or disproved!
In the meantime lets listen to the Moon Song http://www.rathergood.com/moon_song/

Even if they do get photos of the moon landing sites, people will just say that they faked the photos. The moon landing conspiracy crap will go on until the end of time. ::)

Then the conspiracy people will just say that NASA went up after the fact and set it all up to look like a real landing site.  ::)

Yep, and it will never end.  It's like a religious thing with the "deniers".

Back to the original post, very cool film!
