J. Irwin, D. Scott or A. Worden (Apollo 15)
Awesome view of the whole Moon during the homeward journey, 26 July-7 August 1971
Vintage gelatin silver print in fiber-based paper, printed 1971, numbered "NASA AS15-95-13001" (NASA MSC) in black in top margin, 20,3 x 25,4 cm
Such a view of the whole Moon, centered on a point 50° S, 50° E, showing parts of the lunar nearside and the Moon’s hidden face from Earth, was only witnessed by 24 Apollo astronauts who went to the Moon between 1968 and 1972.
“We went to the Moon as trained, hopefully efficient, observers to gather data with both our scientific instruments and our minds. We spent 150 hrs circling over this unique planet, exploring the Hadley Base area, and performing the scientific tasks required.
Yet, in addition to making these assigned scientific observations, we left the Moon indelibly impressed with its stark, surrealistic features, its nearly overwhelming variety of landforms, and, above all, its awesome beauty. It is truly a fascinating place for exploration and study.”
