The 2026 photo was taken at night. The 1972 was taken in the daylight. They aren’t the slightest bit comparable.

If we’re going to compare them using photographic equipment, we should post the unedited originals.
The original 1972 photo has much muted colors, and this Artemis photo is almost completely dark.
And I think the originals are superior in both cases.

How bad is the image completely unedited? I know space pictures are edited to look better, but I’m interested in seeing the raw iPhone pics they’re taking up there

Looks like different views of the same planet.

It’s fun to think about how there was significantly delayed gratification in the 1972 picture. Sure, they took it, but no one saw it till after landing and developing.

how much more powerful are the engines in Artemis?

An 80mm at f/2.8 on a medium format Hassy is similar to a ~50mm on 35mm format, with a bokeh equivalent of about 1.4.

how many times does the same image need to be posted here?

That Hasselblad with a 70mm medium format film has about 5x more resolution in pixels than the Nikon D5. The D5 has better ISO for that picture, and that’s it. On the same scenario the 1972 camera would do much better.

They used a 10 yr old 20.8 MP DSLR camera!? It warms my heart to know my D850 isn’t too outdated.

Is it only me or the 1972 pic looks better than ’26 one

The latest one seems to have a yellowish tint and not as bright and white. Not sure if it is because the old one has too much “touch up”, or the world is really getting more yellowish from e.g. pollution.
