Pete Conrad (Apollo 12)
Blue glow around Alan Bean striding across the Ocean of Storms, EVA 1, 14-24 November 1969
Vintage chromogenic print on early resin coated paper, printed 1969, (NASA AS12-46-6807), with "A KODAK PAPER" watermark on verso, 25,4 x 20,3 cm
Kicking up lunar dust with each step, Alan Bean strides across the sunny Moon with a package of instruments to be set up.
Bean is using a “barbell” carry to take the scientific equipment to its deployment site, about 500-600 feet from the LM which is visible behind him together with the American flag and the S-band antenna.
The blue halo around Alan Bean is due to a dust smudge on the lens.
“Up there, with the suit on... You just couldn’t take that big a leap. Not that you weren’t physically capable of doing it at those weights, but you were going to wind up on your head or your back or your side or something.”
Pete Conrad (Chaikin, Voices, p. 72)
From the mission transcript when the photograph was taken:
116:57:22 Conrad: We couldn’t ask for a better spot to put this ALSEP down.
116:57:33 Bean: No. This is nice. Hey, (there are a) lot more rocks up here (than there are around the LM).
116:57:42 Conrad: (To Houston) Listen, there...We could play geologist for two days and never get any further than we are right now. Seeing all different kinds of things.
