After the success of the final Apollo round, an additional task has been included for participants to earn an additional 200 APL tokens. The previous airdrop is still ongoing meaning you will still earn tokens for completing the other tasks.
The Apollo airdrop will be ending soon so we recommend...
"MSC, HOUSTON, TX -- Apollo 14 lunar rocks view: The 2 Moon-exploring crewmen of the Apollo 14 lunar landing mission show off some of the largest lunar rocks they collected during the mission, during a through-the-glass meeting with newsmen in the Crew Reception Area (CRA) of the Lunar Receiving Laboratory (LRL) at the Manned Spacecraft Center (MSC). Astronaut Edgar D. Mitchell (l.), LMP, holds up a tote bag in which some of the lunar samples were stowed, while Alan B. Shepard, Jr. (r.), CDR, looks on. The largest sample brought back on the mission, a basketball-sized rock (nicknamed "Big Bertha") is said to be the larget lunar rock collected in 3 lunar landing missions for NASA."

Apollo's a great puppy we've walked with before - he's about nine months old now, and had a great time chasing around with Yuki.
Ultraviolet astronomy photos taken with telescope on moon, Apollo 16.
Disclaimer: I am not endorsed by NASA, I have done this out of intrest for the Apollo Program in my free time.
File information:
This set includes Apollo 16 UVC scans from NASA converted to JPGs by Thomas.
This set also includes unconverted scans from NASA, with a RAW prefix and .raw extension. The latter can not be read by conventional image software. For more information on how it was scanned, see NSSDC link below.
To get the RAW files, see 'Download options' window and click on 'SHOW ALL'
Why, and story:
The Apollo 16 UVC experiment photos are not all readily available on the internet. Original files have been received by NASA by asking here:
nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/datasetDisplay.do?id=ASUV-00017
At this website you can read how the raw files were decoded into image files viewable by modern operating systems: www3.telus.net/summa/faruv/explain.htm
Usefull Information:
The Revised S201 catalog of far-ultraviolet objects inspects some images in detail. A great source of information.
Apollo after a bath. He's cute when he's miserable...does that make us horrible people? Wendy says it does, but I disagree.

Apollo wasn't quite sure what to think of my running around and the camera that I had. This is him 'charging' me - he wasn't exactly angry but he wasn't just playing either.

This photo, sponsored by Kodak, was part of the RCA record "One Small Step. Narrated by Dr. Wernher von Braun and Chet Huntley."
This spacecraft carried astronauts Thomas Stafford, John Young and Eugene Cernan to the Moon and back in a final dry run before Apollo 11's lunar landing. On its return to Earth it travelled at 24,790 mph. The fastest speed ever for a crewed vehicle.
Each Apollo spacecraft was equipped with two rucksacks filled with equipment to help the crew survive in the event of an emergency landing on earth. Rucksack #1 here includes three water containers, a radio beacon and spare battery, sunglasses, six packages of desalting chemicals, a seawater desalter kit, two survival lights, a machete and two bottles of sunscreen. This was one of the displays at the St. Louis Science Center exhibit.

The final Service module part is that big Service Propulsion System nozzle on the back. That's the rocket engine that slowed the Apollo spacecraft into lunar orbit, and later fired to get the astronauts home.
Here's a flight article (or advanced test article) of the Apollo lunar module, also known as the LEM (lunar excursion module). The LEM held 2 astronauts for up to 3 days on the lunar surface while the Apollo CSM (Command and Service Modules) orbited overhead with the third crewmember.

Parian marble, copy from the Hadrianic or Antonine epriod of a Greek original of the Classical period.
Some shots from today's dress rehearsal for the presentation startling next week.
As usual a fine job on the lighting by the crew there, making a bit easier.
More details:
During Apollo 4, the Service Module main engine was used to accelerate the unmanned spacecraft so that its reentry velocity would be comparable to that at the end of a manned lunar mission.
