That was a wasted trip to your Uncle's house

While Walter and Schirra were in color, the Apollo 11 TV camera was only black & white. Pretty low quality B&W, too, but hey, it was from the moon!

If you have not seen the movie, "The Dish", I recommend you go rent it. It's a funny movie about one little part of the Apollo 11 mission that made those TV pictures possible and the excitement over the mission. I plan on buying a copy for my movie collection. It's one of the better space movies ever made, IMO, even though none of the characters ever leave the ground.
