Since 1980, Roger Ressmeyer has enjoyed unique access to NASA's projects and photo libraries. "It's been fun," says Roger. "I've floated in the vomit comet (NASA's aircraft that simulates weightlessness) and scuba dived with fully suited astronauts in NASA's pools." In 1991, at NASA's request, Ressmeyer trained astronauts to improve their photos from space. The project resulted in the book "ORBIT – NASA Astronauts Photograph the Earth." For that project, NASA provided Ressmeyer and astronaut Jay Apt with unprecedented, never repeated access to NASA flight film. Roger is shown here with original film from Apollos 8 through 13.
