I love how one of the key skill for astronaut training is photography/cinematography, and they are all very accomplished at it. I mean, learning how to film a major IMAX motion picture, that’s so cool. And all those iconic Apollo moon images, it’s not that they just captured history, they are serious pro shot pictures.
