"Apollo 16 Full Mission (Day 6) - Moon Walk 1" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPEvizJS5VQ There are a few anomalies in this video: 1) the tv-camera, which recorded this video, was actually taking pictures in color. It's not easy to see color. But e.g. there was a red ring around the legs of the astronauts and that was actually red after transmission. Also the ribbon towards that 'tech device' was red and was transmitted in red. But if they used a color camera, than why were other items not in color? 2) at the top of these 'back-backs' there is something blinking (occasionally). What was that? 3) the tv-camera pans, tilts and zooms and was placed on a tripod. But how did they do this? ... TH
