In honor of the late William Anders, here's a really great video on the "Earthrise" photo and how improbable it is that we have it at all
ELI5?
Basically they weren't originally planning on taking a photo of earth from the moon. The fact that they even had a camera was due to interest from a few astronauts in the earlier missions. The camera had its viewfinder stripped to save weight, so the astronauts couldnt see what they were filming. On that mission they were only planning to take photos of the moon's surface. And then they decided in the moment as the earthrise happened, that it needed to be photographed, and out of tons of shots they only got one clear image.
Maybe a little clickbaity but "It's highly imporbable that they got this shot" doesn't ring the same
Doing God's work.
Brilliant, thanks.
Could someone please adapt this video into a full-length stage musical? That's the only type of content I consume so it's only reasonable for someone to do this for me.
This is a great comment! I appreciate you mentioning your favorite form of content!
I'm going to go ahead and let OP know what my preferred format is so they can keep in mind in the future, as well
Hey OP, thanks a lot for making this post! I appreciate you giving me an outlet for my mental illness the opportunity to let you, and any other users here, know that I actually really prefer graphic novels.
OP, would you kindly consider adapting the information presented in this video into a graphic novel (in color, of course) so I can consume the infoyou found interesting in my preferred format? Also, one of my cousins is deaf , so could you make a copy of the graphic novel in sign language, too?
I hope it's as interesting as I imagine. I haven't clicked on it yet since I don't want to spoil anything in the graphic novel adaptation
Sorry. Just having fun. Some people on this site are legit interesting characters, to put it nicely
😂
One useful function for AI would be to watch YouTube videos and extract any useful information into concise paragraphs. I am looking to be informed, not entertained.
sir this is a wendys
I am saying I am not watching the video. I would prefer a tight paragraph or two about whatever the videographer thinks are the extraordinary circumstances.
you can keep using tiktok and melt your brain with 10 videos per minute then
Not sure if you're mostly joking but TT has tons of long-form content as well. It's one of the main reasons I don't use it - all my recommendations are super interesting 7+ min videos (I think I get too anxious to open the app knowing it's going to open up to some super in-depth breakdown on a very specific topic. It's insane how good their algorithm is. It practically never misses
