APOLLO Photo Galleries and Image Files - Set One: Apollo 1 through Apollo 12

by World Spaceflight News

World Spaceflight News is proud to present the most complete collection of Apollo photographs ever gathered in one place. It's so huge, this set - with still images from Apollo 1 through Apollo 12, including the first landing on Apollo 11 - takes up over 1.2 gigabytes (GB) of storage on two CD-ROMs! (Set Two contains the images from Apollo 13 through Apollo 17 and is available here at Amazon.com; ISBN 1893472663. The two sets combined have 11,000 gallery pages and 12,000 image files.) This set contains over 4300 NASA image files. In addition to superb crew, vehicle, and launch photos, images from the landing missions make you feel like you're on the Moon, with majestic surface and EVA views - including sequential Hasselblad frames! We've also included 185 video and movie clips from Apollo 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, and 17 (.mpg and .mov files) that can be played on your computer. Our unique "IMAGE GALLERY" in Adobe Acrobat format reproduces the photos in a computerized "photo album" suitable for quick full-screen browsing! In the Image Gallery, many of the photos are accompanied by the official NASA caption. This format was designed to mimic the look and "feel" of a real book; there is no need to laboriously import specific images into a slow-loading program for viewing and printing. As you flip through the images in the Gallery, you can magnify photographs for better viewing. For completeness, we've also included each of the original image files (in .gif and .jpg formats) which can be copied onto your computer and used as you would any graphics file. This CD-ROM is perfect for anyone interested in the spectacular history of American manned spaceflight! The Image Galleries are reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software - allowing direct viewing on Windows 95/98, Windows 3.1, NT, and Apple Macintosh systems. Reader software is included on the CD.
