AS 11-44-6574 - The Eagle, after the undocking (1)

Caption NASA originale:"A view of the LM Eagle, shortly after undocking from CSM Columbia. At this point, Mike Collins is doing a visual inspection of the Lunar Module, and is verifying that the landing gear is down and locked.
An evolution in the LM's design is also apparent. The RCS plume deflectors, mounted on the Descent Stage underneath each RCS quad, were added to prevent the thermal damage observed on the Apollo 10 LM.
Compare this photograph with that of the Apollo 10 LM ( AS10-34-5085 )".
