A blast from the past. Literally. 41 years ago a camera, running at 500 frames per second (yes, I know), captured the launch of Apollo 11 on a 16mm tape.
Thanks to the use of the 500 fps camera, the actual 30-second take-off sequence is stretched to eight minutes. (And recently converted to HD too).
The resulting footage is mesmerising and terrifying in equal measure.
