Lotto No. 99


N. Armstrong, B. Aldrin or M. Collins (Apollo 11)


The Earth: our world in the window of the Apollo 11 spacecraft, 16-24 July 1969

Vintage chromogenic print on fiber-based paper, printed 1969, numbered "NASA AS11-36-5359" (NASA MSC) in red in top margin, with "A KODAK PAPER" watermark on verso, 20,3 x 25,4 cm

Apollo 11 was crossing the vast translunar gulf about 115,000 nautical miles (213,000 km) from Earth when the crew witnessed this “absolutely fantastic” view.

From the mission transcript when the photograph was taken (at T+028:42:31 after launch)
028:07:21 Collins: Rog. I've got the world in my window for a change and looking at it through the monocular, it's really something. I wish I could describe it properly, but the weather is very good. South America is coming around into view. I can see on the - what appears to me to be upper horizon, a point that must be just about Seattle, Washington, and then from there I can see all the way down to the southern tip - Tierra del Fuego and the southern tip of the continent.
028:07:55 McCandless: Roger. Sounds like you've got a beautiful view up there.
028:08:01 Collins: Absolutely fantastic. I hope the pictures come out; we're rotating around where it's going out of view again. [...]
