Photos of all manned Apollo missions published in high resolution

Nearly 12,000 photos taken by NASA astronauts during the Apollo missions to the moon have been published in high resolution on Flickr. The raw scans of the Hasselblad negatives have a resolution of sixteen to twenty megapixels.

Kipp Teague, administrator of the Project Apollo Archive, has published the footage. The 11,191 photos, scanned at 1800 dpi, are organized by mission and by film warehouse in albums collected on Flickr. The footage had been on display in Teague’s Apollo archive for a long time, but is now available in large format for the first time.

In 2004, the original Hasselblad negatives were scanned in high resolution. Teague was sent the uncompressed tiff files on DVDs, but resized and edited the photos for display on the website. Over the years, Teague received many requests for larger format photos, so he decided to publish the files unedited and in high resolution. The archive contains images of the manned Apollo missions, which are Apollo 7 to 17.
