Description
NASA. APOLLO 12 mission. In this superb and unusual photograph, astronaut Charles Conrad Jr. can be seen in the foreground approaching the SURVEYOR III spacecraft that had landed on the Moon a few years earlier. He would later remove the camera and return it to Earth. In the distance on the lunar horizon, like an insect silhouetted against the infinite void of space, we see the lunar module of the APOLLO 12 mission, with an antenna deployed to communicate with Earth. November 20, 1969. Slightly later chromogenic print. NASA logo in front margin. NASA logo and typed caption on back. 20.2x25.3cm with margins.
