Lunar modules from the first two moon landings have been captured in stunning detail by Orbiter photos, more than 50 years after the historic missions.

The Apollo 11 and Apollo 12 landing sites are visible in recent photos taken by India's Space Research Organization moon orbiter, Chandrayaan 2, 50 years after the original moon landing missions.

On Wednesday, the photos captured by the Chandrayaan 2 orbiter in April 2021 were reposted on Curiosity's X page, which focuses on space exploration.

India's Moon orbiter captured images of Apollo 11 and 12, which were shared by Curiosity on X, along with overhead photos of the landing vehicles on the moon's surface. Moon landing deniers disapprove of these images.

On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 became the first spacecraft to land on the moon, with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin being the first men to walk on its surface.

Michael Collins, the third man on Apollo 11, orbited above while Armstrong and Aldrin descended to the lunar surface.

After rendezvousing with the command module Collins, the lunar module Eagle was left in lunar orbit and eventually returned to the moon's surface.

In 1969, on November 19th, NASA's second manned mission to the moon resulted in Charles "Pete" Conrad and Alan Bean becoming the third and fourth individuals to tread on its surface as part of Apollo 12.

The Apollo missions ended in December 1972, with astronaut Eugene Cernan being the last person to walk on the moon.

The Apollo 11 mission was launched 50 years ago, on July 22, 2019, and the Chandrayaan-2 mission captured images of the 1969 lunar landers two years later.

Last year, India's Chandrayaan-3 mission was successful in landing near the moon's south pole, making history.
