Summary[edit]

Description
English: Title: PIA03495: Live from the Moon - Impact!

Original Caption Released with Image:
On March 24, 1965, a nationwide TV audience watched live video from Ranger 9 as it purposefully crashed into the Moon within the crater Alphonsus. Ranger's six cameras sent back more than 5800 video images during the last 18 minutes of its 3-day journey, the last of the Ranger Project. The last few images show the lunar surface in detail from a few hundred meters above.

This sequence of images from Camera A was converted from video to film to laser disc to digital files.
Čeština: Dne 24. března roku 1965 narazila sonda Ranger 9 plánovaně do povrchu Měsíce v oblasti kráteru Alphonsus. Během posledních 18 minut letu své třídenní cesty vyslalo šest kamer sondy do pozemského centra více než 5 800 videosnímků, z nichž poslední ukazují detaily měsíčního povrchu ze vzdálenosti pouze několik stovek metrů.

Ses 6 caméras ont enregistré plus de 5 800 vidéos pendant les 18 dernières minutes de son voyage de 3 jours, le dernier du programme Ranger. Les dernières images, prises à seulement quelques centaines de mètres de haut, montrent la surface de la Lune en détails.
