Buzz Aldrin (Apollo 11)


Orbital sunrise over Tranquility Base, 16-24 July 1969

Vintage chromogenic print on fiber-based paper, printed 1969, numbered "NASA AS11-37-5437" in red in top margin , with NASA caption numbered "NASA AS11 37-5437 (NASA MSC) and "A KODAK PAPER"watermark on verso, 25,4 x 20,3 cm

This picture was taken on orbit 4 looking west with the 80mm lens from the window of the LM Eagle as Armstrong and Aldrin were in the midst of activating the LM docked to the CSM Columbia.
The crew was approaching the nearside terminator (boundary between day and night on the Moon) and the Sun was just rising over the Tranquility Base landing site, which can be seen near the shadow line, a little to the right of center.
The jagged shape to the left is one of the LM thruster engines.
The 22-km Crater Maskelyne is the large one at the lower right.
Latitude / longitude: 0.2N / 24.5E.

From the mission transcript (photograph taken at T+082:56:50 after launch):
082:54:01 Armstrong: Man, this is really something, you ought to look at this. You want to watch our approach into the landing site. You got to watch right through this window. We’re coming over - we just passed Mount Marilyn. We’re coming up on Maskelyne series here - straight out ahead, coming into the landing area.
082:54:23 Collins: Houston, we’re holding inertial a little while to study the approach to the landing zone. [...]
082:56:50 Aldrin: Houston, this is Apollo 11, in the Eagle. Apollo 11 in the Eagle. And I got a beautiful view of the whole landing area.
