I just want to know why no film footage of the star-field while on the dark side orbit. Ideal opportunity for a spectacular shot.

@htos1av : No one from Apollo missions mentions stars seen on dark side.

@daveg2104 : So you think seeing a brilliant, unobstructed star-field from the far side of the moon is nothing to write home about hunh? Not even worth mentioning hunh? Collins remarked never having seen star-light the entire time. Youre rationalising about something that has a scientific explanation having to do with how atmosphere affects star-light frequency. Reducing it into the range visible to the naked eye.

@daveg2104 : Yes I do know about the IR optics. And have enjoyed night sky away from the city. It is a dazzling wonder. How much more so from capsule while in the lunar umbra. Thanks for your post.

@morskojvolk : Why are you shaking your head? All I asked was why no photos? Even just an open shutter shot to show the streaks. And recall, Armstrong said they never saw any stars except through the uv equipment, but did say they saw planets.
