Lunar Rock Sample Information Slide — Clip Details

A vintage 8mm home movie clip from California, USA, in 1970, showing a projected slide with information about a lunar rock sample from the Sea of Tranquility. The text details the rock's weight (230 grams) and its principal minerals: plagioclase feldspar (50%), pyroxene (35%), and ilmenite (10%). The footage exhibits classic Super 8 film grain and a slightly shaky, hand-held projection quality, capturing a moment of mid-century scientific interest and space exploration nostalgia. Ideal for documentaries, educational content, or retro-themed projects.

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: Useful for 1970s archival requests needing a short science, space exploration, or museum-style projection insert from California home-movie footage.
Period detail: The projected slide text identifies a lunar rock sample from the Sea of Tranquility, while the 8mm scan look and metadata support a 1970 California setting.
Home-movie behavior: The clip carries a visitor-shot perspective, with the camera filming a projected informational slide rather than a staged demonstration.
What appears in frame: Visible elements include blue projected slide text, mineral percentages, dark projector borders, frame jitter, soft focus, and duplicated contact-sheet views.
Film character: The footage has dense blue exposure, visible grain, soft projected text, slight handheld instability, and contact-print framing typical of small-gauge film scans.
Edit role: An editor could use it as a brief cutaway, science-history insert, or transitional evidence shot in a sequence about Apollo-era public interest.
Historical context: The visible slide reflects public display or educational interpretation of lunar sample information without proving the specific venue or institution.
Research note: No people, logos, or private property are visible, but slide text and any source-film copyright should still be reviewed separately from likeness concerns.
Research search match: Search matches include 1970 California 8mm lunar rock sample slide, Sea of Tranquility mineral information, and vintage space science home movie.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with adjacent reel material, then other 1970 California footage, and then broader space, science exhibit, or Apollo-era public education clips.
