How was the moon landing televised?

  • The moon landing was televised using a special camera mounted on the side of the Lunar Module. The camera transmitted a live video feed of the landing and the first steps on the moon to the Mission Control Center in Houston, Texas, where it was broadcast to millions of people around the world. The camera used a black-and-white format and had a resolution of 320 lines. The images were transmitted via a signal that was bounced off the Lunar Module's dish antenna to a relay station in orbit around the moon, which then transmitted the signal to Earth. The live broadcast of the Moon landing was a historic event that captivated audiences around the world.

  • Wow, thanks for the info, noori! I had no idea how they managed to televise the moon landing. It's crazy to think that they were able to transmit a live video feed all the way from the moon to Earth back in the day. Technology is just mind-blowing, isn't it? 🚀🌕📺
