AS11-40-5952: Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment as left on the Moon by Apollo 11 Plot of arrival time of photons (Y axis) for each of many laser pulses sent to the Moon (X axis). This data, along with similar data from the other landing sites, shows there are man-made objects on the Moon in the locations of the Apollo landings.
Saturday, July 20th marks the 50th anniversary of one of the most formative events not just for American history, but for the history of mankind: The Apollo moon landing.

[2] [ Note 1] Both analog and digital transmission techniques were studied, but the early digital systems still used more bandwidth than an analog approach: 20 MHz for the digital system, compared to 500 kHz for the analog system.

On July 19, 2019, the Google Doodle paid tribute to the Apollo 11 Moon Landing, complete with a link to an animated YouTube video with voiceover by astronaut Michael Collins. [282] [283] Aldrin, Collins, and Armstrong's sons were hosted by President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. [284] [285]
(By the way, don't Google "Apollo 11 images" unless you're prepared to sort through pages of fake moon landing conspiracy websites.) The most famous one is this iconic picture of Aldrin below.
The photos show the descent stage of the landers from each mission on the Moon's surface. The photo of the Apollo 14 landing site also shows tracks made by an astronaut between a science experiment (ALSEP) and the lander. [170] Photos of the Apollo 12 landing site were released by NASA on September 3, 2009. [171]
The original slow-scan television signal from the Apollo TV camera, photographed at Honeysuckle Creek on July 21, 1969. The Apollo 11 missing tapes were those that were recorded from Apollo 11's slow-scan television (SSTV) telecast in its raw format on telemetry data tape at the time of the first Moon landing in 1969 and subsequently lost.
Moon landing deniers say there's clear photographic evidence of this, and point out that because there's no breeze on the moon, this must be fake. Apollo 11astronaut Edwin Buzz Aldrin, on the Moon ...
