Comments and observations on science fiction and fantasy.
Thank you for your interest and for helping to keep alive the spirit of space exploration and its history.I don't normally just post links to online content, but I've made an exception in this case because it's such an astonishing resource. Kipp Teague, who is an IT Director in Virginia, has had a long association with NASA and the presentation of visual records of space flight. His most recent project is the creation of a Flickr archive containing over 11,000 (yes, ELEVEN THOUSAND) unprocessed images from the Apollo missions. The archive is unedited - there are blurry images and shots of random pieces of hardware mixed in with the more impressive photos, but personally I think that adds to the value of the collection, it's like getting a real time view of the events being recorded.
