Does anyone know what is regarded as the first photograph
that is space related; the moon, a planet, a star field or whatever it may be and if it can be viewed online someplace? Google was not my friend here. |

No one at any point in this discussion indicated it would have been difficult to photograph the moon with the earliest films. My comment about the film's sensitivity was made to rule out objects OTHER THAN the Moon and Venus as the earliest astro-photography target. I can't imagine how I might have worded it to be more clear.
