Life in Space

You know what's cool? Space. You know what else is cool? Photographs of space. You know what is especially cool? When awesome photographs taken by astronauts in space emerge.

Photojojo blogged about these cool scans and I just had to share. These recently restored scans are from photographs taken using a Hasselblad camera during the 1965-1966 Gemini missions. I picked out some of my favourites.


How amazing do these look? Space never seems all that real when you look at it but just wow. Look at it! Space is the coolest.

You can view more of the images here.

  1. Amazing, it's hard to believe these photographs were taken in the sixties.

    1. I still can't quite come to terms with the fact they were taken almost 50 years ago. They're just stunning.
