The hackers who recovered NASA's lost lunar photos - CNN.com 
_The Lunar Orbiter Image Recovery Project _ (http://www.moonviews.com/) 
(LOIRP) has since  2007 brought some 2,000 pictures back from 1,500 analog data 
tapes. They contain  the first high-resolution photographs ever taken from 
behind the lunar horizon,  including the first photo of an earthrise (first 
slide above). Thanks to the  technical savvy and DIY engineering of the team 
at LOIRP, it's being seen at a  higher resolution than was ever previously 
possible.
