To bad it's all fake 😉
Flat earthers have left the chat
NASA has shown lots of film of weightless astonauts on Moon missions, including lending their Boeing 707, zero gravity simulator, to the movie makers of the film Apollo 13. Problem: ASTRONAUTS ARE NOT WEIGHTLESS on a radial trip to the moon. This proves beyond any doubt whatsoever, beyond a shadow of doubt, beyond any doubt, that the Moon missions were faked. The astronauts were in low earth orbit. End of story, it was all faked.
Earth Rise is such an inspirational photo. There was a wall-size replica of the photo at the entrance of the building where I worked as a university student. I got a thrill from seeing it every morning.
Hello beatifull images
If the earth is 4 times the size of the moon why is the earth in this photo the same size as the moon we see from earth?
It’s beautiful !
Every reflection forgets that on Christmas Eve they read from Genesis 1. I was 18 when I saw and heard the reading from Apollo 8! People today want to forget the reading. Very sad!
GLORIOUS
Holy crap! Santa is flying in the back ground too! Whata picture! 2 🦅 1 stone.
Despite of the violence, killing and turmoil, this picture is an example of how wonderful Earth is.
"Not because it was easy but because it was hard…" and more importantly we cant have the Russians beat us to it.
Earth rise isn’t even possible. Earth is stationary in the moons perspective
To all the people who have played a role…THANK YOU!
This takes me back to when I was a little girl. I can still remember hearing the Presidents voice. Martin and Bobby’s deaths. Heartbreaking still till today. The 3 days the Earth stood still.
@1:47 FRANK BORMAN or FRANK BOWMAN?? from 2001?
Amazing he still had his lines memorized haha
Get the whole story in the new book, "Apollo 8." Excellent read.
Why do i still read comments?
Did humankind have electricity back in 1969? Because the half part of earth which is sunk in darkness should have a few light sources from populated cities, just like these pictures which NASA claims are real :

Wow, this is a beautiful story that I wish religious people would fully understand the significance of. Time is getting its game back. Religion blinds people; Earthrise opens people's eyes.
Great picture! WOW
I wonder what the current flat earth people would say about this famous "Earth Rise" Picture by Apollo 8.
