This photograph could be said to have kick started the environmental movement. Connects with a fairly recent post #372.
It was first seen in a special issue of the New York Times.
It was taken by NASA astronaut: William Anders using a Hasselblad camera during the Apollo
This was the first mission to take a manned vehicle around the 'dark side' of the moon.
The original photo had the moon vertically in the frame, and has been cropped and rotated for impact. I have copies on postcards but it has been used numerous times.
William Anders sadly died in 2024 reducing the number of people still alive who have actually stood on the moon, or were part of the original NASA Apollo missions.
