Is this the greatest photographic achievement in human history?I can't possibly imagine what it must have felt like to stand on an alien surface and look out onto Earth. A planet that not a single living being had left in billions of years and now you're staring right at it through a camera lens.Do you think we'll have astronauts that will take any better images the next time we go to the moon? What camera will they use?
That's not to discount the first ever photo taken by a human of Earth from the Moon though. It's equally as incredible, just not as well known or iconic.
meh
One time I took a photo of a traffic light that was pretty coolI did long exposure so I captured it going from red to orange to green

>>4297952- HAM operators can directly measure moon distance with RF bounce.- picrel- There are dozens of proofs the Earth is a sphere, just take a star trail photo ffs and notice TWO celestial poles.- Watching con artists on YouTube and questioning easily proven facts does not make you a critical thinker, it makes you a retard.>>4297958Based. I love the photos sent back by deep space probes.

Reposting pic related because it got nuked with the rest. One of the greatest photographic achievement ever. I'd call it the most planned and well executed shot ever.
I made one post with the word "Subtlety" before I went to bed, now a shitload of the thread is nuked. Caps?
Wouldn’t the Voyager 1 be the bigger achievement in photography?
>>4298611Well there's an argument there. The Pale Blue Dot and the Family Photo are amazing, with great emotional weight, but they require more background knowledge to be correctly interpreted; Saturn flyby also produced amazing pictures. To me however that shot of Pluto trumps everything: the orbit of Pluto doesn't lie on the ecliptic and it's highly elliptic (compared to the planets'), meaning it was a once in a two centuries window, plus the high resolution of that picture is amazing.
>>4298628sending a probe to mercury requires more propellant/gravity catapults than sending one to Pluto. it's also very difficult to observe mercury from earth. and to boot NASA managed to to it all on a low cost mission.
>>4298092https://archived.moe/p/thread/4296950/#4297952cANON got banned and everyone who replied to him had their posts deleted. I would also bet on anyone who replied to him angrily enough or attempted to join in trolling got shorter bans. Notice you haven't seen cANON in a while. A long while. He's been banned so many times for posting literally 0 photos that it's probably permanent. You may never see cANON again, and if you do, get on IRC and tell the mods in case he's evading (ESPECIALLY if he has a new trip)This also happened to the pet hating schizo's most recent meltdown in /fgt/. Everyone replying to him also got nuked, taking ~50 posts off the thread and I would bet on several shorter bans being handed out for the people getting mad at him.
>>4298837>You may never see cANON againThank God>This also happened to the pet hating schizo's most recent meltdown in /fgt/So I leave this shithole of a board for some two weeks because of work and then two of the best things possible happen when I'm outCool
>>4298837>This also happened to the pet hating schizo's most recent meltdown in /fgt/I am not a schizophrenic.
>>4298830Sure, but the sheer distance and the very rare window of opportunity makes me appreciate New Horizon more than MESSENGER, which to be fair also gave us amazing pictures, pic related.
>>4298941I'd like to put up the final stills from the EU's Rosetta of the comet "67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko".There's also those 4 pictures of the surface of Venus way back many decades by the Soviets.
>>4298952
>>4298837Thank fuck.
>>4298952>RosettaThat one too had a ridiculous amount of slingshot maneuvers, an astonishing feat in planning and engineering. From a photo perspective the closeups were cool, but the comet itself wasn't very photogenic.
>>4296950You watch fall of civilizations
>>4299328>>4299329we are so back
>>4299334it's so over
I hope his next ban is permanent and comes with a temporary rangeban
>>4296950>What camera will they use?Aboard the ISS and for the future Artemis moon missions, NASA will be using the Nikon Z9
