Herr is a topic that should make you feel good all over and give you something to dream about over the weekend:
It has been 50 YEARS!!!!!!:salute:
That is amazing! 50 years since humans first walked on the Moon! And, I remember watching that on our television as it happened. It was such a wonderful happening because we were mired in the hell known as the Vietnam War at the time, and for something this great to have occurred, well, it gave us all hope for the future.
***(Side note: I am not sure if that hope has ever been realized but upon reflection, it may have been the precursor of the ultimate in "urban sprawl". Yes, we humans are now planning many visits to the Moon and even to Mars. Mining, among other things is contemplated on the Moon.)***
Hasselblad was there when Apollo 11 made history. A giant leap for a camera company as well!
And now it is 50 years later, and a new camera awaits its debut. A special edition X1D?
I don't know, but the idea of a special edition is interesting!:toocool:
The history of this event is definitely cool!!!
If anyone hears of interesting events, products, books or memorabilia, just post here!
