It's the 30th anniversary of the brilliant Apollo 13 movie! The perfect time to reveal the rear jacket of #GeminiAndMercuryRemastered - just thrilled that it features kind words from Tom Hanks (top right), the real Jim Lovell (top left) and the real Gene Kranz (bottom left)! 🚀

Is there much detail to pull out of that 60 year old, analog, Gemini film? Here's a close up of Buzz Aldrin's visor and the stitching in his suit, while out on an EVA during Gemini XII, November 12, 1966:

#OTD 1969 Neil Armstrong: "The most beautiful sight I'd ever seen." 12,000 miles from the Moon, Apollo 11 flew into its shadow. The Sun's corona is behind. Due to Earthshine, the crew could make out surface features - now seen in the remastered image, right (raw scan, left):

Today in 1969. Neil Armstrong took this - the first ever photograph on the surface of another world. Remastered here from a scan of the actual film from Armstrong's camera.

Apollo 11. Rarely seen shot of Eagle, the Moon and Earthrise, taken on this day, July 21, 1969. Mike Collin's alternate photo is extremely well known, but this one - shown remastered and cropped - is an absolute beauty!

TODAY is the 75th anniversary of the first ever rocket launch from Cape Canaveral!🚀 Seen here on July 24, 1950, Bumper 8 was based on a German V-2 missile. Less than 400ft away, the photographers were knocked to the ground - well they'd never witnessed a rocket launch before 1/2
