The Apollo astronauts trained in NASA's Lunar Orbit and Let-Down Approach Simulator (LOLA).

Project LOLA was a high tech simulator built to study problems with landing on the Moons surface.

Built at Langley Research Center the project cost close to $2 Million dollars. ( 1 , 2 )

"This simulator was designed to provide a pilot with a detailed visual encounter with the lunar surface; the machine consisted primarily of a cockpit, a closed-circuit TV system, and four large murals or scale models representing portions of the lunar surface as seen from various altitudes. The pilot in the cockpit moved along a track past these murals which would accustom him to the visual cues for controlling a spacecraft in the vicinity of the moon. Unfortunately, such a simulation - although great fun and quite aesthetic - was not helpful because flight in lunar orbit posed no special problems other than the rendezvous with the LEM, which the device did not simulate. Not long after the end of Apollo, the expensive machine was dismantled." (p. 379)

The "picture of the century" was the first view of the Earth from space. Lunar Orbiter I took the photo on 23 August 1966 on its 16th orbit just before it passed behind the moon. the photo also provided a spectacular dimensional view of the lunar surface. (L-66-6399) ( 1 )
