All But One

I’ve always loved this photo

allofhumanitybutone

It contains every single person who was living or had every lived when it was taken…except for Michael Collins, who took this photo on July 21st, 1969 as Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin came back up from the Moon’s surface.

    Having grown up during the era of this picture brought back many memories. My father worked at the Cape on the launch crews. I did some searching and according to Bing, there is another photo showing the same results. This one is from Apollo 10 according to search results. Even if it is mislabeled, the and is just a different view of your photo the impact is tremendous.

    250 thousand miles away.And no radio communications until he came to the other side.
