Lotto No. 105


Michael Collins (Apollo 11)


Spectacular views of the lunar horizon over the nearside and farside of the Moon, 16-24 July 1969

Two vintage gelatin silver prints on fiber-based paper, printed 1969, numbered "NASA AS11-42-6223" and "NASA AS11-43-6513" (NASA MSC) in black in top margin, each 25,4 x 20,3 cm, (2)

Two superbly detailed photographs of the fabulous moonscape scrolling in front of the Apollo 11 spacecraft rounding the Moon over both the visible and hidden face from Earth.

First photograph:
The view is looking northwest showing the southwest border of the Sea of Crises with the 23-km Crater Picard well-defined (center).
Latitude / longitude: 10° N / 56° E.

Second photograph:
Lunar farside horizon looking west over craters Green and Hartmann near Crater Mendeleev.
Latitude / Longitude:1.5° N / 137° E.

“The Moon I have known all my life, that two dimensional small yellow disk in the sky, has gone away somewhere, to be replaced by the most awesome sphere I have ever seen.
To begin with it is huge, completely filling our window. Second, it is three-dimensional. The belly of it bulges out toward us in such a pronounced fashion that I almost feel I can reach out and touch it.”
Michael Collins (NASA SP-350, p. 207)
