Kayuga mission has so many great images! They also have a different 'feel' to them form the NASA or ESA photos which I like, soft edges or something.


About the short exposure making it look like there are no stars, well , okay.
I'm not sure about that. I like your answer and thank you.

Yes, the Kayuga images seemed to bloom in front of my eyes. They weren't flat at all. The perspective was breath taking. But, I wouldn't want to live there.

When I was watching a show today about the Liberty Bell 7 and Gus Grissom, I was reminded of seeing that on tv when it really happened. I always wondered how he got the hatch open. I understand the the pressure in the cabin moved inward and that it would take a herd of oxen to open it. And Gus swears he didn't open the hatch. And then boom in Apollo 1 with his two fellow astronauts. That whole story is an anomaly.
