Mosaic from 8,000 images from Apollo missions


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

A stunning mosaic image recapturing the remarkable image of Buzz Aldrin on the surface of the moon taken by Neil Armstrong has been created to mark the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. 

Developers Shoothill, a software specialist firm, created the mosaic from 8,000 images from all Apollo missions. 

Some of the images were repeated and the total amount of images was 50,000, and they in turn formed a cell of the larger image. 

In total it equates to a staggering one trillion pixels, which the firm claims could make it the biggest image ever made. Shoothill is waiting on verification from the Guinness book of records to confirm this.

Looking forward to hear how the 'lunar hoax' people will explain 8,000 pictures.
Isn't their whole conspiracy theory based on less than 20?

:D Actually, it's less than one - as NONE of the denier's claims about the photographic record stand up to any scrutiny.

Here's what Buzz Aldrin thinks of them.

While Buzz is not my favorite astronaut, that footage is just wonderful.  I don't normally advocate violence but given the harassment he was engaging in, Bart Sibrel (look him up to see what a  lowlife he is) deserved every ounce of that punch.

You should see the insanity on social media. Loaded with trolls! They are really a sad statement on the educational system in the US. Or they're really just ignorant fools.
