Pete Conrad (Apollo 12)
Shadows of Pete Conrad and Alan Bean, the first photograph of two human shadows on the Moon, EVA 1, 14-24 November 1969
Vintage gelatin silver print on fiber-based paper, originally shot in color film, printed 1969, numbered "NASA AS12-46-6841" (NASA/USGS) in top margin, 25,4 x 20,3 cm
This is the first still photograph showing the shadows of two human beings on the surface of another world.
This wonderful picture from a panoramic sequence shot looking west by Pete Conrad from the rim of Middle Crescent Crater features the shadows of the two moonwalkers as they observed the rim of this spectacular large subdued crater visited at the end of the first EVA period. The crater is more than 300 m across.
Pete Conrad wanted to get the portrait of the two astronauts with a timer but unfortunately didn’t find it while on the lunar surface.
