50th Anniversary of Apollo 8 |
Last month marked the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 8 mission. Honeysuckle Creek's 26m antenna was a key element of the tracking station network supporting the mission. A pictorial account of the mission by Hamish Lindsay is available from the the Honeysuckle Creek Tracking Station website. The image above shows the Honeysuckle Creek antenna in action.
