Some of the First-Ever Photos Taken in Space Have Been Lovingly Restored After the Soviet Union launched the first satellite into orbit and followed it up by sending the first person into space, the U.S government responded by forming NASA, and later President John F.

Peanuts comic strip originally published March 13, 1969. Snoopy the astronaut, atop his doghouse, has reached the moon, and as he looks down, notes, "It looksl ike a dirty beach ..." and in the final panel he says, "Or has someone already said that?"

A stunning black and white nighttime view of the Apollo 9 spacecraft atop its colossal Saturn V rocket at the launchpad in Florida. Floodlights illuminate the scene, creating a dramatic effect.  This iconic image commemorates the 170th anniversary of Jules Verne's birth, whose visionary novel "From the Earth to the Moon" foresaw this very moment.

A panoramic view of the lunar surface near the Apollo 14 landing site.  The Modular Equipment Transporter (MET) is prominent in the foreground, with astronaut footprints and the American flag visible.  In the distance, Turtle Rock is seen, and a golf ball, possibly hit by Alan Shepard, is visible as a small white dot.  This mosaic, created from photos taken by Ed Mitchell, offers a detailed look at the Apollo 14 mission's exploration of the Fra Mauro highlands.
