I'm working on a new show that should be finished by Monday. It's another in the What Was On series of TV photos (for those of you who don't care for these photos--it should be the last one for a while). This one will called What Was On (In Space) and feature photos of various NASA missions in the 60s and early 70s. Most of the photos are from a large lot I got of photos of a couple different Gemini missions to which I've added a bunch of photos from later Apollo missions. One of my earliest memories is of watching the first moon landing (I was 4). I think its worth remembering that most people watched those missions on B & W TV sets (often with poor reception) making the race to the moon even more other-worldly. Of course, the broadcasts also feature some very cool 60s graphics. Here's a little sample.
