"There Are No Pictures of Neil Armstrong on the Moon". Not true. There are 16mm video stills of Neil Armstrong on the surface plus one or two partial Hasselblad photos taken by Buzz Aldrin

I absolutely love the perspective change of “home” he has. The thing is I really don’t think you can appreciate that until you’ve experienced spacewalking. Simply because here on the ground it feels so large you forget everyone everywhere who’s ever been is on this ground with you but I think you get more appreciation for that from orbit. It really must put you in awe your first time. Going from pictures and globes to actually seeing the African continent flying by behind your shipmate is nuts. Awesome interview.

It is similar to instrument flying training with an "instrument hood" over your eyes. Your eyes are focused on the true instruments, not the outside of the airplane. But acceleration forces tell you that you are in a left descending turn when in reality you are in a right climbing turn. Nausea is common initially, but after a while, your body adapts and learns to trust the instruments. Try MS Flight Simulator someday and compare it to a real instrument flight.

Charles Lindbergh wrote, The Spirit of Saint Louis. I had been flying since 13 and many times had been in awe at how beautiful the sky and the earth are from above. I read that book as a teen and these words he wrote moved me and I’ve never forgotten them. ”Sometimes, flying feels too godlike to be attained by man. Sometimes, the world from above seems too beautiful, too wonderful, too distant for human eyes to see, like a vision at the end of life forming a bridge to death.” At 6:10 Mike echoed those feelings and it brought a tear to my eyes. I hope you can share this with him.

There is a 70mm color photo of Armstrong on the moon in his space suit. Photo AS11-40-5886 is of Armstrong. Aldrin had the camera for a short period of time and shot that photo of Armstrong. I'm surprised that people still think there aren't any photos of Armstrong on the moon, when that was disproven a long time ago. Plus, both astronauts are on the 16mm film shot from the LEM, through the window.
Plus there's all that t.v. footage. The first television images of man on the Moon are of Armstrong, pulling a lanyard to activate the t.v. camera, climbing down the ladder, etc. After Armstrong gave the Earth a 360 panoramic view of the lunar landing site and then finishing by pointing it toward the LEM, he left the t.v. camera on its stand and went to work. They both paused and faced the camera when Mission Control patched them through to Nixon sitting in the Oval Office.
@@MrJm323 They are referring to "no photos" of Armstrong, not video. But, like I said, even that isn't correct. People used to think that every 70mm photo with an astronaut on it was of Aldrin, until it was pointed out that Aldrin had the camera for a period of time and Armstrong was captured on a few photos. Some just partially, but fully on the one I mentioned.
Best interview yet! I took the shuttle ride at the KSC and when the bay doors opened it was unbelievable, breath taking. I can’t imagine what it looks like in real life.
@@mrm8850 Why aren't you allowed out at night? We can see and photograph the ISS. Millions of us own and use telescopes. Can see surface curvature here at the Great Lakes. Even schoolkids put upo cameras to 25 miles. Why aren't you allowed out at night?
Had the pleasure of meeting Mike when we hosted him and his team at our high power rocket club in NJ. Great respect for the man and always love hearing him recount his experiences in space.
"I can't imagine any place more beautiful than where we are" I wish more people could feel this way. All anyone ever focuses on is what's wrong with the world. There's so much about life and the world we live in that we all take for granted.
@@samlawrence4670 things are not as bad as some like to make it out to be. Humans still only inhabit just 6% of the land mass on the planet. So how bad could we be making it? There's plenty of wide open spaces left. Where we have zero impact.
@@1pcfredbut we are impacting over 90% of it with farming, mining, deforestations, pollution, and extinction. There is literally not a mammal, fish or reptile species we are not having an effect on, on the whole planet. How much land mass we actually live on is irrelevant but 6% is absurdly high for any animal let alone a large predator. The fact that you can’t understand what we are doing to the only place we have to live gives me even less hope for the future than I already had. Lucky I’m old I’ll be dead before the worst of it happens.
Thank you, Adam…and thanks to Mike for his awe inspiring story of his first real acknowledge of the spectacular moment he was privileged to witness. Thank you for sharing with us.
"He's kinda up there where Han Solo is, and behind his head is Africa. And I'm thinking, how am I gonna get anything done out here?" I could listen to Mike for hours.
@@tested I have a challenge for Adam, put on a moon space suit, spend as much time on the X-ray machine as Armstrong spent on the surface of the moon, and tell us your impressions afterwards.
Mike is a credit to his profession. I’ve spoken with him more than a few times during my career at KSC on the shuttle program. I also was fortunate enough to meet and speak with John Young as well. I wish I had a picture of his face when I presented a photo of him saluting the American flag during his moonwalk on the Apollo 16 mission. To actually meet and speak with a moonwalker is a most humbling experience. John young was known as an astronaut’s astronaut. That photo signed by John Young, and one signed by the entire Class of 1996, Group XVI, which includes Mike, are the only space photos on my walls. Thanks Adam for a great interview.
I'm so excited to see this interview with Mike Massimino. I have been saturating myself in space exploration and NASA these last few weeks. I just got into For All Mankind and have completely binged it every second I've had. I hope Adam and the Tested team does a collab with the production team of For All Mankind. Would love to see his take on their spacesuits and the science behind the show.
I was raised in Franklin Square, Long Island as well. When I moved to Los Angeles, I thought it was as different and as far away as one could be from Long Island. But then Mike went to space... Yeah, that's pretty far from Franklin Square as well ;) From one Long Islander to another, we're really proud of you Mike Massimino.
Yeah that's what every 101 IQ armchair intellectual says. In reality, right and wrong still exist, some values are better than other, and some systems are obviously wrong.
I'm from the other side of the planet & not trying to put Americans down, but I wish their culture had a more "universal" perspective. Does anyone understand what I am saying?
Eh, maybe. But there are also quite a few astronauts who've had that experience, and come back just as nationalistic and tribal as before. There's more than one cosmonaut who vocally supports the Russian invasion of Ukraine for example.
Talking about a change in perspective, I had that just from meeting a Moonwalker, Gene Cernan, a week or so later there was a full moon and it felt different to me than it ever had all my life it was a very surprising feeling. It stopped being this distant unreachable mythical heavily thing and felt now more like looking up at Spain or something, like oh there's that place over there, I've met someone who went there once.
@@1pcfred seriously? If any country could have minesites pumping ore right now, they would be there. The facts are that no human can go through the Van Allen radiation belts. The rest is rubbish. You know nothing of what you speak. No reason to go back ? You need to seriously wisen up. There's 5 countries trying their best to get there and notice, no humans on board. No human has been there, no human will ever go there. Artemis postponed again, September 2026, already talk of scratching it and returning to Apollo style mission.... as they did 20 years ago and scrapped that then went Artemis.....etc. rinse, repeat. No human is leaving inner space, low Earth orbit, 350 miles maximum. Wake up.
@@charliekempf yes and the fact that he made it just shows how trivial the task he accomplished really is. Hugo Vihlen crossed the Atlantic solo in a craft with a 5' 4" beam. Apollo on the other hand represents the most ambitious achievement our species has ever undertaken. It was literally impossible to do at the outset. Whole new technologies had to be developed to manage it. So a bit different scale.
Couple of notes for this fantastic interview that struck me. Mike was on the flight before the Columbia accident. Also, his explanation of doing his first spacewalk was amazing. It made me think about the 1st crew of Skylab a little over 50 years ago, that had to go up and put a fabricated heat shield on the outside of vessel to save Skylab. That was back in 1973 and must have been an incredibly harrowing, yet exciting event for the astronauts that had to do it. They had little practice as they had learn a fix for something they didn't know would work on short notice. Balls of steel.
Very true. ISS is the current station, but lots of folks don't remember that Skylab taught us how to work on ISS. I was a teenager during the Skylab missions and It was astonishing to me to think that there are people, actually up there, in orbit...now, looking down at us. It was like Star Trek, where they show the Enterprise orbiting a planet. Also, Skylab was the first time we had a "cooperative" visit from the Soviet Soyuz Cosmonauts. Boy that was a James Bond moment. Everyone was saying stuff like, "If anything goes wrong its those Soviet bast**ds fault! Nuke 'dem sums a' benches". Fortunately all went well. I think later on after 3 years in space they put Skylab on return trajectory over the Indian Ocean, where it disintegrated on re-entry, & sunk.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mike in 2016 on the intrepid where he was doing a npr interview. We spoke while he was waiting for them to get ready. He had his attention so much into our conversation they had to get his attention they were ready for him. He even apologized for having to go, I was just excited about what we just talked about. What a great guy.
6:29, so overwhelming, but a beautiful sentiment! Thanks to Mike for sharing his experiences. Delightful to listen to! I've had a few (on earth, obviously) encounters where the view was so beautiful/breathtaking that i started crying too. It can get sort of overwhelming if it takes you unawares
Actually Buzz took one picture of Neil removing equipment from the LM but it was his backside. Other than that there is movie film taken through the LM window as he began picking up soil samples.
re: 3:38 of course that's incorrect. There are several shots taken by Aldrin that show Armstrong on the lunar surface: AS11-40-5886, AS11-40-5894, AS11-40-5895 plus of course hundreds of still frames from the 16mm DAC that recorded Neil and Buzz setting up the flag and other gear during their EVA.
I'm South African and I agree wholeheartedly with this bloke.I drove from San Francisco to Santa Cruz in 93 and that coastal stretch was really beautiful.
Actually there are pictures/film of Armstrong on the moon. Buzz Aldrin filmed him from inside the LM at the start of their EVA prior to Aldrin descending the ladder to the lunar surface.
@@RobertPilla Then you could also say no one was actually on the moon because they were in their space suit which was on the moon. If you are inside your car, aren't you on the street though?
@@EliasSchnetzer If you take a photo of someone in the woods, and then take a photo of them in their log cabin in the woods, only one will be a picture of that person in the woods, because there are no woods to be seen in the cabin.
@@RobertPilla There is a 70mm color photo of Armstrong on the moon in his space suit. Photo AS11-40-5886 is of Armstrong. Plus, both astronauts are on the 16mm film shot from the LEM, through the window.
The only full-body photograph of Neil Armstrong on the moon shows him working at the Apollo 11 lunar module "Eagle." The first man to set foot on the lunar surface was inadvertently captured on film by Buzz Aldrin, who was tasked with taking a series of panoramic photos.
There was a story/rumor from Neil's biography that Neil had first use of the camera and then he handed it off to Buzz. Buzz had lobbied long and hard to be the first man on the moon but was turned down whatever angle he tried. So Buzz took photos of everything but made damn sure to not get a single one of Neil except the one small one by accident. As I said this was from the book but really only Buzz knows for sure though.
Just a “friendly query” - a guy called Bill Kaysing was - for a number of years - treated as a “bit of a nut” for questioning whether those missions really happened (or, at least, as regards getting as far as the Moon and landing) - he said - “Show me a reasonably close up photo of the remains of the descent stage of the LEM, the “planted” Stars and Stripes, etc. - and I’ll shut up and never speak another word on this subject”. Since he spoke those words, all we have is photos taken about 50 miles above the Apollo 11 “landing site” by the Lunar Orbiter - yet - just a day ago - I saw NASA close up shots of rocks on Mars - like Bill Kaysing (and I’d be happy with NASA shots as long as the digital file was available for download), if the type of shot he mentions can be provided, that’s the end of any doubts I - and many others - might have !
Armstrong was assigned to have the Hasselblad camera attached to his chest. That is why no/few pics of Neil. In Deke Slayton’s book he outlines how Buzz lobbied to be first out the door. He Buzz Aldrins Book “Magnificent Desolation” he does not tell the same story as Deke.
That shot of Aldrin, that is possibly the most reproduced and published photo ever, was taken by Armstrong and you can see Armstrong's reflection in Aldrin's visor. First Lunar Selfie.
Based on the way the lucky few describe what it is like to look back at Earth from space makes me think we need to send a few world leaders to space, see if we can change their perspective.
@@Cosmodjinnor just “miscalculate” the fuel needed to get to orbit and overshoot? I remember an idea some leaders had to launch trash at the sun, maybe we test it out?
There is one photo of Neil Armstrong on the moon. It's the one taken in the shadow of the LEM where he is deploying one of the science experiments from the cargo bay of the LEM. All you see is the back of his EVA suit though.
Yes, that is the only one I have ever heard of. I think later they had the astronauts who were commanders wear a red armband so they could tell them apart in photos.
There's also a photo of Armstrong at the UniverseToday website. View is from an upper-level LEM camera looking down, showing a three-quarter partial front view of Armstrong's face.
There is a 70mm photo of Armstrong on the moon. Photo AS11-40-5886 is of Armstrong. Not to mention the 16mm film camera showing the EVA from out the LM window.
His description of Earth reminds me a lot of Sagan's Pale Blue Dot. If you have never listened to it, do yourself a favor and do a search on Carl Sagan Pale Blue Dot.
Mike has an every person's way of talking about his experience and science much like the great Richard Feynman did. Thanks for this fantastic conversation!
The caption is untrue. The camera on the LEM filmed Armstrong climbing down the ladder and stepping on the moon. That is when he gave his speech about a step for mankind. The space suit helmet face plate is golden, so you can not see his face.
I recently took my first flight last year and it really changed my perspective on the world seeing myself fly through the clouds. I can only imagine how it must feel to be out in space, orbiting earth.
Thank you Mike & Adam! Must feel stronger than visiting a new foreign country, you anticipate the excitement and yet seeing the view of Earth and vast field of space around it...our little island we all must share and call home!
He’s such a regular guy; comfortable to be around. I remember reading about an astronaut who talked about his first space walk. I can’t remember who it was. He said that the only thing that gave him a moment of anxiety was the first time he would push away from the spacecraft and convincing himself that when he “stepped” out over nothing he wouldn’t plummet down.They can’t train them for that in the pool; yeah they float; because there are always visual cues close by, like underneath him to feel somewhat supported, but even though the spacecraft is right there, there wasn’t anything beneath him. That would be a weird feeling. It was a fascinating description of his first spacewalk and something I had never thought of until he described it. It describes the conflict of the senses; one part of the brain telling you you’re going to fall and another part telling you there’s no gravity and you’ll be okay.
@@vwR32mja "We can’t go to the moon. It’s literally made out of plasma".....Interesting comment. Why do you reject the conventional wisdom that the moon is made of cheese?
Currently, there is no suit available that can completely protect a human for any extended period in 250-degree Fahrenheit (121-degree Celsius) heat without any supplemental power or oxygen. Such extreme temperatures present significant challenges, including: 1. Thermal Insulation: To withstand such high temperatures, the suit would require exceptional thermal insulation. Most materials capable of this level of insulation would also be very bulky and limit mobility. 2. Cooling Systems: To prevent the person inside from overheating, an active cooling system would be essential. Such systems typically require power to operate continuously, especially in such an extreme environment. 3. Oxygen Supply: Without supplemental oxygen, the suit would need to be completely airtight and equipped with a system to recycle carbon dioxide back into breathable oxygen, similar to space suits. This too would require power. 4. Durability and Safety: The suit would need to be made of materials that could not only insulate and protect against extreme heat but also resist degradation over time due to the heat exposure. While advancements in materials science and engineering continue to improve protective gear for extreme conditions, the specific scenario you're describing remains beyond current technological capabilities. Most high-heat resistant suits used today, such as those for firefighters or industrial applications, require active cooling systems and can only be worn for relatively short periods before needing to retreat to a safer environment or recharge their life support systems. Therefor the statement that men walked on the moon in suits fabricated in the 1960's is not truthful.
All of the space suits in use today can completely protect a human for an extended period in 120ºC heat. The white outer cover reflects 90% of the incoming sunlight. The insulation layers below that keep the remaining heat from getting to the astronaut. The suits have active cooling only to remove the body heat of the astronaut: the same insulation that keeps the heat from sunlight from getting inside also traps the astronaut’s body heat inside. The cooling system requires a small amount of power to circulate water through the cooling garment. The heat is removed through sublimation cooling, which again requires a tiny amount of power to pump water from the reservoir. The oxygen supply does not require power. It’s just passive components. The air circulation system does use a small amount of power to draw the air through the scrubbers. This technology was all developed for Apollo, and still used today.
@@Hobbes746 Space suits are bogus. How does the crew hop around on Earth wearing super heavy 250 pound space suits? They didn't clone the Incredible Hulk to make astronauts, are astronauts generally larger or smaller in stature even? A heavy crew is too heavy, the weight of the space suits was also not true, just for show, to make the suits sound legitimate, the suits do not really weigh that much. I would bet. Because it cannot be done, Shakespeare play costumes.
@@rawveganterra On Earth, you don’t see the astronauts hopping, unless they are in a rig similar to what this video shows: a crane takes 5/6 of the astronaut’s weight. Without that, the astronauts can only waddle slowly, just like Cleo’s doing.
@@Hobbes746 What about the footage of the suited up astronauts easily strolling out of the building, seemingly not encumbered at all, then climbing into the spaceship? Even carrying brief cases or something like it adding even more weight if I recall.
@@neverwinta7702India had a satellite orbit the moon several years ago and took images of two of the Apollo landing sites (15 and 17 I believe). I suggest you use your favourite search engine and look at these images.

I'm surprised that people still think there aren't any photos of Armstrong on the moon, when that was disproven a long time ago.
Plus, both astronauts are on the 16mm film shot from the LEM, through the window.
Thank you for pointing this out!
@@jpsned You're welcome. :-)
Plus there's all that t.v. footage.
The first television images of man on the Moon are of Armstrong, pulling a lanyard to activate the t.v. camera, climbing down the ladder, etc.
After Armstrong gave the Earth a 360 panoramic view of the lunar landing site and then finishing by pointing it toward the LEM, he left the t.v. camera on its stand and went to work. They both paused and faced the camera when Mission Control patched them through to Nixon sitting in the Oval Office.
@@MrJm323 They are referring to "no photos" of Armstrong, not video. But, like I said, even that isn't correct.
People used to think that every 70mm photo with an astronaut on it was of Aldrin, until it was pointed out that Aldrin had the camera for a period of time and Armstrong was captured on a few photos. Some just partially, but fully on the one I mentioned.
I was at the studio while the moon landing was being filmed. I'm surprised that we still don't have the technology to ACTUALLY go to the moon though.
You just get engaged when Mike tells his stories. Always love listening to his experience as an astronaut. Keep Mike coming,Adam!
Man, never heard of this dude and I'm mesmerized by how he tells stories.
You feel like you are there with him. ❤
He's an amazing storyteller as well as a lovely human being, truly.

Great actor.
Best interview yet! I took the shuttle ride at the KSC and when the bay doors opened it was unbelievable, breath taking. I can’t imagine what it looks like in real life.
I followed just about every minute of Mike's EVA on Hubble. One of my favorites to follow. Great stories Adam!

@@samlawrence4670 things are not as bad as some like to make it out to be. Humans still only inhabit just 6% of the land mass on the planet. So how bad could we be making it? There's plenty of wide open spaces left. Where we have zero impact.
@@1pcfredbut we are impacting over 90% of it with farming, mining, deforestations, pollution, and extinction. There is literally not a mammal, fish or reptile species we are not having an effect on, on the whole planet. How much land mass we actually live on is irrelevant but 6% is absurdly high for any animal let alone a large predator. The fact that you can’t understand what we are doing to the only place we have to live gives me even less hope for the future than I already had. Lucky I’m old I’ll be dead before the worst of it happens.

So cool to hear Mike talk about this. He brings the enthusiasm to all of us. Thank you for a great interview!
Mike is a credit to his profession. I’ve spoken with him more than a few times during my career at KSC on the shuttle program. I also was fortunate enough to meet and speak with John Young as well. I wish I had a picture of his face when I presented a photo of him saluting the American flag during his moonwalk on the Apollo 16 mission. To actually meet and speak with a moonwalker is a most humbling experience. John young was known as an astronaut’s astronaut. That photo signed by John Young, and one signed by the entire Class of 1996, Group XVI, which includes Mike, are the only space photos on my walls. Thanks Adam for a great interview.
I'm so excited to see this interview with Mike Massimino. I have been saturating myself in space exploration and NASA these last few weeks. I just got into For All Mankind and have completely binged it every second I've had. I hope Adam and the Tested team does a collab with the production team of For All Mankind. Would love to see his take on their spacesuits and the science behind the show.
nasa is totally bad acting school total fake.
I sure hope there's more of Mike to come!
One more video from this shoot!
I was raised in Franklin Square, Long Island as well. When I moved to Los Angeles, I thought it was as different and as far away as one could be from Long Island. But then Mike went to space... Yeah, that's pretty far from Franklin Square as well ;) From one Long Islander to another, we're really proud of you Mike Massimino.
Amazing, love this. I'm so happy you made this channel. Words can't express.
Awesome! I could listen to Mike's astronaut stories 24/7!
Kudos to the trainers and the people who designed the training.
"I'm not crying, you're crying."- Mike Massimino. Lol
If we could all adopt Mike's feeling of being "from Earth", there'd probably be a lot less conflict and strife among us.
Among us
soos
Yeah that's what every 101 IQ armchair intellectual says. In reality, right and wrong still exist, some values are better than other, and some systems are obviously wrong.
I'm from the other side of the planet & not trying to put Americans down, but I wish their culture had a more "universal" perspective. Does anyone understand what I am saying?
Eh, maybe. But there are also quite a few astronauts who've had that experience, and come back just as nationalistic and tribal as before. There's more than one cosmonaut who vocally supports the Russian invasion of Ukraine for example.
Talking about a change in perspective, I had that just from meeting a Moonwalker, Gene Cernan, a week or so later there was a full moon and it felt different to me than it ever had all my life it was a very surprising feeling. It stopped being this distant unreachable mythical heavily thing and felt now more like looking up at Spain or something, like oh there's that place over there, I've met someone who went there once.
People that have been to the Moon remains a very small club. Only 12 were ever there. We've no compelling reason today to go back either.
@@1pcfred seriously? If any country could have minesites pumping ore right now, they would be there. The facts are that no human can go through the Van Allen radiation belts. The rest is rubbish. You know nothing of what you speak. No reason to go back ? You need to seriously wisen up. There's 5 countries trying their best to get there and notice, no humans on board. No human has been there, no human will ever go there. Artemis postponed again, September 2026, already talk of scratching it and returning to Apollo style mission.... as they did 20 years ago and scrapped that then went Artemis.....etc. rinse, repeat. No human is leaving inner space, low Earth orbit, 350 miles maximum. Wake up.
Leif Erickson had no compelling reason to cross the Atlantic
@@charliekempf yes and the fact that he made it just shows how trivial the task he accomplished really is. Hugo Vihlen crossed the Atlantic solo in a craft with a 5' 4" beam. Apollo on the other hand represents the most ambitious achievement our species has ever undertaken. It was literally impossible to do at the outset. Whole new technologies had to be developed to manage it. So a bit different scale.
@@1pcfred very small club. Like,zero.
Couple of notes for this fantastic interview that struck me. Mike was on the flight before the Columbia accident. Also, his explanation of doing his first spacewalk was amazing. It made me think about the 1st crew of Skylab a little over 50 years ago, that had to go up and put a fabricated heat shield on the outside of vessel to save Skylab. That was back in 1973 and must have been an incredibly harrowing, yet exciting event for the astronauts that had to do it. They had little practice as they had learn a fix for something they didn't know would work on short notice. Balls of steel.
Very true. ISS is the current station, but lots of folks don't remember that Skylab taught us how to work on ISS. I was a teenager during the Skylab missions and It was astonishing to me to think that there are people, actually up there, in orbit...now, looking down at us. It was like Star Trek, where they show the Enterprise orbiting a planet. Also, Skylab was the first time we had a "cooperative" visit from the Soviet Soyuz Cosmonauts. Boy that was a James Bond moment. Everyone was saying stuff like, "If anything goes wrong its those Soviet bast**ds fault! Nuke 'dem sums a' benches". Fortunately all went well.
I think later on after 3 years in space they put Skylab on return trajectory over the Indian Ocean, where it disintegrated on re-entry, & sunk.
Aleays cool to see Mike on, its such an easy listen. Thanks guys for everything.
This is by far my most favorite episode ever. Absolutely fascinating to hear about how it felt for him being in space and seeing earth from space.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mike in 2016 on the intrepid where he was doing a npr interview. We spoke while he was waiting for them to get ready.
He had his attention so much into our conversation they had to get his attention they were ready for him. He even apologized for having to go, I was just excited about what we just talked about. What a great guy.

6:29, so overwhelming, but a beautiful sentiment! Thanks to Mike for sharing his experiences. Delightful to listen to! I've had a few (on earth, obviously) encounters where the view was so beautiful/breathtaking that i started crying too. It can get sort of overwhelming if it takes you unawares
this man describing seeing earth from space GAVE ME CHILLS!
Actually Buzz took one picture of Neil removing equipment from the LM but it was his backside. Other than that there is movie film taken through the LM window as he began picking up soil samples.
re: 3:38 of course that's incorrect. There are several shots taken by Aldrin that show Armstrong on the lunar surface: AS11-40-5886, AS11-40-5894, AS11-40-5895 plus of course hundreds of still frames from the 16mm DAC that recorded Neil and Buzz setting up the flag and other gear during their EVA.
Sure. You would know more than him.

I'm South African and I agree wholeheartedly with this bloke.I drove from San Francisco to Santa Cruz in 93 and that coastal stretch was really beautiful.
That was making me emotional just to hear, dang.
there's no pictures of me on the moon either but you don't see me bragging about it.
What an awesome interview, thank you
Actually there are pictures/film of Armstrong on the moon. Buzz Aldrin filmed him from inside the LM at the start of their EVA prior to Aldrin descending the ladder to the lunar surface.
He was on the EVA which was on the moon. He was not photographed actually on the moon.
@@RobertPilla Then you could also say no one was actually on the moon because they were in their space suit which was on the moon. If you are inside your car, aren't you on the street though?
@@EliasSchnetzer
If you take a photo of someone in the woods, and then take a photo of them in their log cabin in the woods, only one will be a picture of that person in the woods, because there are no woods to be seen in the cabin.
And the Apollo 11 Data Acquisition Camera from inside the LEM window, It took time lapse pictures.
@@RobertPilla There is a 70mm color photo of Armstrong on the moon in his space suit. Photo AS11-40-5886 is of Armstrong. Plus, both astronauts are on the 16mm film shot from the LEM, through the window.
The only full-body photograph of Neil Armstrong on the moon shows him working at the Apollo 11 lunar module "Eagle." The first man to set foot on the lunar surface was inadvertently captured on film by Buzz Aldrin, who was tasked with taking a series of panoramic photos.
There was a story/rumor from Neil's biography that Neil had first use of the camera and then he handed it off to Buzz. Buzz had lobbied long and hard to be the first man on the moon but was turned down whatever angle he tried. So Buzz took photos of everything but made damn sure to not get a single one of Neil except the one small one by accident. As I said this was from the book but really only Buzz knows for sure though.
Just a “friendly query” - a guy called Bill Kaysing was - for a number of years - treated as a “bit of a nut” for questioning whether those missions really happened (or, at least, as regards getting as far as the Moon and landing) - he said - “Show me a reasonably close up photo of the remains of the descent stage of the LEM, the “planted” Stars and Stripes, etc. - and I’ll shut up and never speak another word on this subject”. Since he spoke those words, all we have is photos taken about 50 miles above the Apollo 11 “landing site” by the Lunar Orbiter - yet - just a day ago - I saw NASA close up shots of rocks on Mars - like Bill Kaysing (and I’d be happy with NASA shots as long as the digital file was available for download), if the type of shot he mentions can be provided, that’s the end of any doubts I - and many others - might have !
Armstrong was assigned to have the Hasselblad camera attached to his chest. That is why no/few pics of Neil. In Deke Slayton’s book he outlines how Buzz lobbied to be first out the door. He Buzz Aldrins Book “Magnificent Desolation” he does not tell the same story as Deke.
Down to earth, logical yet poetic and heart achingly emotional all at the same time.

Based on the way the lucky few describe what it is like to look back at Earth from space makes me think we need to send a few world leaders to space, see if we can change their perspective.

@@Cosmodjinnor just “miscalculate” the fuel needed to get to orbit and overshoot? I remember an idea some leaders had to launch trash at the sun, maybe we test it out?

There is one photo of Neil Armstrong on the moon. It's the one taken in the shadow of the LEM where he is deploying one of the science experiments from the cargo bay of the LEM. All you see is the back of his EVA suit though.
Yes, that is the only one I have ever heard of. I think later they had the astronauts who were commanders wear a red armband so they could tell them apart in photos.
There's also a photo of Armstrong at the UniverseToday website. View is from an upper-level LEM camera looking down, showing a three-quarter partial front view of Armstrong's face.
There is a 70mm photo of Armstrong on the moon. Photo AS11-40-5886 is of Armstrong. Not to mention the 16mm film camera showing the EVA from out the LM window.
Neil Armstrong was determined to become the "Matthew Brady" of the Moon.

...and I'm crying now.

His description of Earth reminds me a lot of Sagan's Pale Blue Dot. If you have never listened to it, do yourself a favor and do a search on Carl Sagan Pale Blue Dot.
the most eloquent description of space....I am mesmerised
Mike has an every person's way of talking about his experience and science much like the great Richard Feynman did. Thanks for this fantastic conversation!
There are a (very) few because Armstrong held the camera most of the time.
The caption is untrue. The camera on the LEM filmed Armstrong climbing down the ladder and stepping on the moon. That is when he gave his speech about a step for mankind.
The space suit helmet face plate is golden, so you can not see his face.
I think Mike started to tear up just remembering the event.
I recently took my first flight last year and it really changed my perspective on the world seeing myself fly through the clouds. I can only imagine how it must feel to be out in space, orbiting earth.

neil never took a picture of himself but there are pictures of him reflected on buzz's helmet
...As was discussed in this video
From his chest, I bring the glamour shot of the century, a reflection of such magnitude. 🤔
He’s such a regular guy; comfortable to be around.
I remember reading about an astronaut who talked about his first space walk. I can’t remember who it was. He said that the only thing that gave him a moment of anxiety was the first time he would push away from the spacecraft and convincing himself that when he “stepped” out over nothing he wouldn’t plummet down.They can’t train them for that in the pool; yeah they float; because there are always visual cues close by, like underneath him to feel somewhat supported, but even though the spacecraft is right there, there wasn’t anything beneath him. That would be a weird feeling. It was a fascinating description of his first spacewalk and something I had never thought of until he described it.
It describes the conflict of the senses; one part of the brain telling you you’re going to fall and another part telling you there’s no gravity and you’ll be okay.
We never went to the moon. Won't for decades.
Nobody who makes claims such as yours ever backs them up with actual evidence.

@@vwR32mja "We can’t go to the moon. It’s literally made out of plasma".....Interesting comment. Why do you reject the conventional wisdom that the moon is made of cheese?
What an amazing storyteller. I could listen to him for days.
Currently, there is no suit available that can completely protect a human for any extended period in 250-degree Fahrenheit (121-degree Celsius) heat without any supplemental power or oxygen. Such extreme temperatures present significant challenges, including:
1. Thermal Insulation: To withstand such high temperatures, the suit would require exceptional thermal insulation. Most materials capable of this level of insulation would also be very bulky and limit mobility.
2. Cooling Systems: To prevent the person inside from overheating, an active cooling system would be essential. Such systems typically require power to operate continuously, especially in such an extreme environment.
3. Oxygen Supply: Without supplemental oxygen, the suit would need to be completely airtight and equipped with a system to recycle carbon dioxide back into breathable oxygen, similar to space suits. This too would require power.
4. Durability and Safety: The suit would need to be made of materials that could not only insulate and protect against extreme heat but also resist degradation over time due to the heat exposure.
While advancements in materials science and engineering continue to improve protective gear for extreme conditions, the specific scenario you're describing remains beyond current technological capabilities. Most high-heat resistant suits used today, such as those for firefighters or industrial applications, require active cooling systems and can only be worn for relatively short periods before needing to retreat to a safer environment or recharge their life support systems.
Therefor the statement that men walked on the moon in suits fabricated in the 1960's is not truthful.
@IamL.I.S.A.
Sounds legit, makes much more sense than anything NASA says.
All of the space suits in use today can completely protect a human for an extended period in 120ºC heat. The white outer cover reflects 90% of the incoming sunlight. The insulation layers below that keep the remaining heat from getting to the astronaut.
The suits have active cooling only to remove the body heat of the astronaut: the same insulation that keeps the heat from sunlight from getting inside also traps the astronaut’s body heat inside. The cooling system requires a small amount of power to circulate water through the cooling garment. The heat is removed through sublimation cooling, which again requires a tiny amount of power to pump water from the reservoir.
The oxygen supply does not require power. It’s just passive components. The air circulation system does use a small amount of power to draw the air through the scrubbers.
This technology was all developed for Apollo, and still used today.
@@Hobbes746
Space suits are bogus. How does the crew hop around on Earth wearing super heavy 250 pound space suits? They didn't clone the Incredible Hulk to make astronauts, are astronauts generally larger or smaller in stature even? A heavy crew is too heavy, the weight of the space suits was also not true, just for show, to make the suits sound legitimate, the suits do not really weigh that much. I would bet. Because it cannot be done, Shakespeare play costumes.
@@rawveganterra On Earth, you don’t see the astronauts hopping, unless they are in a rig similar to what this video shows: a crane takes 5/6 of the astronaut’s weight.
Without that, the astronauts can only waddle slowly, just like Cleo’s doing.
@@Hobbes746
What about the footage of the suited up astronauts easily strolling out of the building, seemingly not encumbered at all, then climbing into the spaceship? Even carrying brief cases or something like it adding even more weight if I recall.
