Checking out some NASA files of the Moon, always puts a smile on my face...



So I wanted to scope out some image galleries, specifically, the Apollo flyovers on the moon:



Okay, here we go! Galleries...



Wait, wtf...this is the same page. No wait. Let me try image gallery on the bar:







God damn it... Okay, I see another "galleries" link.



Okay, I just keep ending up back in "pic of the day" screens. I don't care about pic of the day, for the love of mercy.



I know....Ill try "missions!"



There she is....woohoo



Start with Apollo 15:



Ehhhhh? wth man, there's no picture galleries here. Ok wait, link to Apollo missions gallery....





What the....son-of-a-...this is the same screen I was....aaarrrrrrrrgh



Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggghhhhhh.........



Okay, so no NASA pictures for today then.

At least they are consequent and apply that policy also to their linking

Edit: Hmm I was a little slow... and late to the party.

Seriously where was it? I know its out there, as I remember being on the page. But I wanted to test what its like for a reg Joe, unfamiliar (I usually use Google and find a forum post linking it - how sad is that?)

Designed and implemented by the lowest bidder. Spent more gathering proposals than the website cost.

I went to Locations> HQ>History>apollo (program)

Its easier just search in google

Navigating to find the right area by clicking from page to page does seem pretty difficult, but just going to the search bar at the top and typing in "apollo 15 images" works just fine nasasearch.nasa.gov... Their site seems to be tailored to what's happening now and you have to dig to get any historical information.
