They were produce, I believe without lubrication so they would not freeze up. Gene I understand that the Apollo missions took Hasselblads with them to the moon. Does anyone know if they ever left the spaceship unprotected? I'd love to find out if they coped with alternating between temperatures in the shade close to absolute zero and full unfiltered direct sunlight with brain frying levels of ionizing radiation.
