“NASA had strict rules about how sharp an angle was safe for a LM landing, and a 15° slope was the absolute maximum. Any steeper and liftoff could be compromised. The moon’s Hadley-Apennine region was treacherous, however, and the 10-degree incline of the landing spot was the best the crew was able to find. NASA was happy to release images of the Apollo 15 LM photographed from the front, but profile shots such as this one were kept under wraps.”
