Vintage gelatin silver print on fiber-based paper, printed 1969, numbered "NASA AS10-33-4952" (NASA MSC) in black in top margin, 20,3 x 25,4 cm

Eugene Cernan captured this fabulous oblique photograph through the 80mm lens looking south (perpendicularly to the motion of the spacecraft) on orbit 27 just before his Hasselblad camera malfunctioned.
