Diese Woche vor 52 Jahren machte Harrison H. Schmitt während der Apollo-17-Mission eine Pause vom Mondspaziergang, um mit der amerikanischen Flagge und der Erde zu posieren.

I mean the argument, that the earth should be a lot bigger on this photo is not something to ignore.

Astronaut Eugene Cernan is also visible in the reflection in Schmitt’s helmet visor in the awkward position he assumed to obtain this image.

Hey… I’m reporting this…. im in this photo and I don’t like it….
It’s weird how I think it looks so much further away when I see Earth in the sky rather than the Moon. Really brings home the kind of distances involved.
It would be awesome if we had the technology to go back now👏
This flag looks shriveled; not open as if it were flapping in the wind.
