Ways of seeing - the power of photography

Whether you were alive at the time or not, you have likely seen the iconic images taken during the moon landings of the 1960s and early 1970s. They were the first photos of the earth ever to be taken from outer space. 

Photography has a powerful impact on humans. It can help us understand the uniqueness and beauty of our planet and can inspire us to feel more responsible for protecting our environment. 

In this episode we talk about the creation and importance of earth-shattering images. We discuss how a ZEISS lens became an important witness to the moon landing and how photographs can help us develop a deeper understanding of the beauty and fragility of our home planet. Two experts, Dr. Vladan Blahnik, an expert in optical design, and Sebastian Copeland, a polar explorer, climate analyst and photographer, help us better understand the technical details and the evocative power of those world-changing images.
