Remembering Apollo 11
I think this picture set Remembering Apollo 11 is probably the most definitive set of images I’ve seen from Man’s first steps on the moon and any of you ridiculous doubters who still think it’s a hoax should watch the Mythbusters special on the landing. Not that it will change your minds but it’s a good watch anyway.
NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has sent some beautiful pictures of the Apollo Landing Sites from about 110km above the surface of the moon just in time for the 40th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 Landing on Monday. It's amazing the level of detail that can be seen, the Apollo 14 site is one of the best.

When the LRO moves into its full mapping orbit at the end of August these will be from about 50km. Can't wait.
Also, following @apolloeleven on Twitter is giving realtime tweets of Apollo 11 as it happened, to the minute: Long periods of nothing, then bursts of activity.
