Why didn't the astronauts not take any photos of the stars when on the moon? It
is incredible that they didn't.
The conspiracy answer is that to show the stars would have meant painting them
onto a backdrop and this would have been too difficult to do accurately and to
reposition them for each subsequent visit to the moon. Jack
a valid point, but not necessarily a true one.. The last thing a real man on
the moon would think is that anyone would not believe he was there.. and or
that he would need to provide a star map photo to prove it .. My main photo
objectives would be of the moon and myself on it , wouldn't It? And of course
bring back a sample stone or two... which they did I m told, and shared
around.. What happened to these?

Dear Paul,
I do understand exposure and light levels because I am interested in
photography. Did you know that the astronauts claimed they couldn't even see
the stars which is utter rubbish. If I can see them through an atmosphere then
astronauts should see them with even more clarity. Neville once posted a NASA
link to an artist's impression of what the stars would look like above the
atmosphere even near the sun. Why did we need an artist's impression? Why not
real photos by those who were there and are there on shuttle flights?

Please allow me to intrude. It's all about physics and the way your eyes
respond to light. Try this experiment. You'll need access to a 500W QI lamp and
a large white sheet and a rotary cloths line and a dark clear night at New
Moon. Well it doesn't need to be rotary but these are the most common here in
Oz; and while New Moon is best, most any time the Moon is below the horizon at
night will do. Of course you won't want to be on the foreshore in Blackpool
either -- I believe it's pretty well lit up there at night.
The drill is this -- go out to the cloths line where you've hung the sheet
and stand where you can see the stars but the sheet is just below your field of
view. The lamp should be between you and the sheet and directed to shine
directly on the sheet but so placed that none of its light shines directly into
your eyes. It will help if your clothes line is hidden from street lights. Get
used to the conditions -- a few minutes at least -- and have a willing
assistant who is out of sight, turn on the lamp without warning and notice how
the number of stars you can see diminishes. Then -- in your mind -- put
yourself in full sunlight with no atmosphere and surround yourself with white
and gold reflecting surfaces -- and think of how many fewer stars you would be
able to see that if all those reflecting surfaces were absent.
You could also try the reverse situation. It is said that you can see stars
in full sunlight if you are at the bottom of a deep well. I don't know if it's
true or not. However, if you don't have a well, two lengths of PVC 90mm storm
water pipe painted dull black on the inside -- one for each eye -- may well do
the trick. Arrange a light tight viewing aperture between your eyes and the
pipes and look up, again allowing several minutes for your eyes to adjust.
Again, I don't know if this will work but it sounds plausible.
This whole exercise is about reducing to an absolute minimum, the light
which can shut down your irises while maximising the opportunity for your
retinas to collect enough of the faint light from the stars to register an
impression.
And remember -- cameras work on the same principles.

But would the astronauts see stars? Armstrong said they couldn't - whose
telling the truth?

Stars or no stars depends on the exposure and shutter speed. I would not
expect to see stars in a photo, coz then the main object would be overexposed..
wouldn't it?
