A never before seen photograph taken on the moon from the camera mounted on the lunar lander shows Neil Armstrong's face through the helmet of his spacesuit, one of the few images to show Armstrong who had been mostly manning the camera.
An amazing new photograph showing Neil Armstrong's face through his space suit visor has come to light on the 40th anniversary of the first manned Moon landing."

There are colour photographs from the First World War and even way before that.The first colour photograph was taken in 1861. You really should check your facts. To save you the bother of searching for the information, which took me all of 30 seconds to find, check out this site:- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_photography In case you are interested, the first ever photograph was taken in 1826. There is in existence a photograph of the Duke of Wellington, who commanded the British forces at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Duk...ngton_Photo.jpg From yo...

Hehe, Thanks for that.So, you assumed I was American from my spelling of colour, wow, nowhere near my friend, now, you should really check your facts, to save you the following trouble of searching for the information, which took me all of 31.5 seconds to find, check out this info. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_...ces#-our.2C_-or I like to repay people who help me. Now we shall be even . The forum is a place of learning, we can't be expected to know everything. Just proves I wasn't too far out in thinking you were American - your original post said 'color'.

Just proves I wasn't too far out in thinking you were American - your original post said 'color'. I should have spotted you were from Australia though. I only noticed it about 32.3 seconds after hitting the Add Reply button. I guess we should both check our facts. All the best, mate. Your right, damn I did screw up, I usually spell it colour, sorry. Glad we sorted all this out, I probably did type it as 'colour' first but then automatically right clicked it and changed it due to firefox's spell checking red line of evilness. All the best to you too.

Wasn't the astronomers have a helmet that is shaded with gold for maintaining the temperature in the suit? It really smells fishy because all these years they didn't get this photo to the public and now at this moment it suddenly pops up? Thanks B???

So what if we don't beleive that its true were all idiots??? Wow thats cool! The post was a story related about the Uncle of the poster. The Uncle's reaction was completely understandable, especially given the fact that he worked for the best part of a decade on a remarkable engineering project that accomplished something amazing. I'm sure the Uncle was neither talking about you, or any of the current ilk of folks who, possessed of little knowledge in the subject matter, and who have no idea what happened nor how, beleieve that it was a fake. In fact, I'm rather certain that he, nor any of us ... [More]

The astronauts had two visors over their inner bubble helmet. The gold visor was up in the film, since it wasn't needed for direct bright light at that moment. Again...as I said earlier... This "photo" is a frame of film that's always been available. It didn't "just pop up". It is a modern day enhancement of a 40 year old frame of 16 mm color film ... [More]
