This is so cool: 3D anaglyphs of some of the Apollo landing sites<\/a> as seen by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter!<\/p>

<\/a><\/p>

That’s the Apollo 14 site. Click to embiggen — and I urge you to do so. You can really see the lander popping right off the surface. In the Apollo 11 image<\/a> you can even see that the lander feet are farther away from you than the top of the lander. It’s incredible!<\/em>

These were done by Nathanial Burton-Bradford, and are part of a set of other 3D space anaglyphs<\/a>. He took pairs of images taken by LRO (which is orbiting and taking phenomenal images of the Moon) and combined them to make the anaglyphs. They’re all worth perusing. I’m glad I have a set of red\/green glasses! If you don’t have one, I again urge you to find ‘em — they can be ordered online, usually pretty cheap.<\/p>

Normally, I ignore Apollo Deniers, since obviously no amount of evidence will ever wrench them from their fantasy world of ridiculous, top-heavy, and fact-free conspiracy theories… but these images really do hammer home that those landers are sitting on the Moon.<\/em><\/p>

Oh, what we humans can do when we decide to.<\/p>
