I know how I will be spending Friday night now – Google added 103 historic films, here’s the Apollo 11 mission, perhaps the one of the most important achievements of humankind – “This film tells the story of the historic first landing of men on the Moon in July, 1969. It depicts the principal highlight events of the mission from launching through post-recovery activities of Astronauts Neil Armstrong, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, and Michael Collins. Through television, motion picture and still photography, the film provides an “eye-witness” perspective of the Apollo 11 mission.” [via] Link.

One Response to Apollo videos on Google video…

  1. That video is quite cool, it explains of they surveyed the surface of the moon to find the right spot for the landing.

    By the way, you can use the setting “smooth the video” on the google movies to reduce the pixelisation, it makes the movies more tolerable.
