> Long-exposure photos were taken with a special far ultraviolet camera, the Far Ultraviolet Camera/Spectrograph, by Apollo 16 astronauts from the surface of the Moon, and operated in the shadow of the Apollo Lunar Module (LM)
One such picture: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Apollo_16_UV_photo_of_Earth_rotated.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Apollo_16_UV_photo_of_Ear... and here with stars labelled: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Apollo16EarthID.png https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Apollo16EarthID.png
It took literally one google search and clicking on the first result.
- coldtea 10y ago>It took literally one google search Is this observation addressed to me or to you? Because it that's the kind of photo you wanted, it would have literally took one google search to find it when you asked for one. If anything, it seems like you cheer for finding evidence that speaks the contrary of your argument yourself. I was referring to having the crew to take several long exposure captures so that you can see both earth and the stars properly exposed in the same photo, despite the limited dynamic range of film. Which this is not. If you don't accept the other stuff, why would'd accept some light dots near another light dot is a real picture of the Earth?
