16 July 1969… Apollo Mission

Launch date. 50th Anniversary of Man Landing on Moon.

My memory on that day… listen to the whole conversation on a small Radio. It was live Broadcast from VOA Voice of America Transmission from Ceylon (Now Srilanka).

After fifty years I can write about that here.

More program set for this Anniversary.

Thank you for sharing your photos @GeorgeEPremkumar ,

I’ve watched some videos that NASA recently posted, they very interesting to watch. Were you able to watch the lunar eclipse? How was the weather like? Also, it can be very interesting to share with us some tips for night photos. What type of lens did you use?
