Fly me to the moon

And to think that people still doubt the moon landings ever even happened. In fact, just this week a few of us at work were debating this very issue over lunch. To put all our minds at rest, let’s enjoy these vintage photos, which John Tolva pointed at recently.

No doubt the simulations of the Saturn mission helped the real thing go off more smoothly, but was that blackboard really part of the deal? The “orbit of moon” label is comedy gold in its own right. Please, whoever is in charge of thee archives, can we get a higher resolution look at the equations at the top of the board?
