It was Christmas Eve 1968 when Apollo 8 astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and
Bill Anders became the first humans to witness and photograph Earth from lunar orbit. It was only on the fourth orbit that one of the men saw the spectacle for the first time.

One photo taken by astronaut William Anders later entitled EARTHRISE was an image that would eventually launch a thousand environmental movements, such was its impact on the public consciousness. It showed the stark contrast between the grey, desolate landscape of the lifeless Moon and the vivid blue-and-white orb of the fertile Earth – a symbol of warmth and life in a bleak desert of deathly coldness.

watching the film emerge from his developing machine was Nasa's chief of photography, Dick Underwood:

"The processing of that first roll and seeing those Earthrise pictures while the film was still wet was one of the great moments in my life. Seeing the film come out of first wash was like being a witness to a great event in history."

APOLLO 8 ....the first manned spacecraft to leave Earth orbit and GO SOME PLACE!!!!!!

EARTHRISE
