Pete Conrad or Alan Bean (Apollo 12)
First Crescent Earthrise, 14-24 November, 1969
Vintage chromogenic print on fiber-based paper, printed 1969, numbered "NASA AS12-47-6874 (NASA MSC) in red in top margin, with "A KODAK PAPER" watermark on verso, 25,4 x 20,3 cm
This remarkable view was photographed with the 60mm lens and the transparent glass reseau plate engraved with grid markings of the lunar surface Hasselblad camera from the LM Intrepid (whose thruster is visible at the bottom right) not long after Revolution 12 Acquisition Of Signal (AOS) with the Earth. Intrepid with Pete Conrad and Alan Bean on board was still docked with the Command Module Yankee Clipper with Richard Gordon on board before its undocking and descent to the lunar surface on the next orbit. Farside highlands east of Crater Pasteur are in the foreground.
“I don’t think any of us ever tired of looking out the window and watching the world or the Moon go by. One of the best things that our photography has done is come close to giving people down here an idea of what the hell it looks like from up there”
Pete Conrad (Schick and Van Haaften, p. 40)

Moon, Man’s greatest adventure, Thomas, ed., cover (variant).
