as11-40-5935~0.JPGAS 11-40-5935 - Up-Sun (1)57 visite110:55:49 MT. Rightward of 5934. Note the large boulders, presumably ejecta from West Crater, near the horizon on the left. The Northern part of East Crater can be seen in the Sun glare above center.Mag 05, 2006

as11-40-5932.JPGAS 11-40-5932 - Lunar Surface (1)57 visite110:55:49 MT. Rightward of 5931, with good overlap. The split boulder is at the lower left. Note the relative darkness of the areas disturbed by the crew at the center of the photograph.

as11-40-5931.JPGAS 11-40-5931 - "Buzz", Lunar Module & various Equipment55 visite110:55:49 MT. In this second photo from Neil's minus-Z (East) pan, Buzz has removed the Passive Seismometer Package from the SEQ bay. The foreground object with the handle is the Gold Camera, designed to take close-up photographs of the very top layer of the Lunar Soil. Note, also, the split rock at the right edge, just below the center of the photograph. This boulder was probably ejected from a nearby impact, possibly West Crater, and broke into two pieces when it hit. A different boulder, just to the left of center near the tip of the LM shadow in 5883, appears to have suffered a similar fate.

as11-40-5930.JPGAS 11-40-5930 - Armstrong's Shadow57 visiteCaption NASA originale:"110:55:49. Neil has backed away from the LM to take a panorama. This down-Sun shows the bright halo - possibly a diffraction effect - that appeared around the shadow of Neil's helmet. Note, also, how washed out the scene is along the line of his shadow. This effect is due to the fact that, in this direction, all of the shadows - excepting only those cast by objects in the immediate foreground - are hidden by the objects that cast them. In addition there are also strong reflections off the soil particles which also contribute to the visual washout. The double crater below Neil's LM window is in the middle distance".Mag 05, 2006

as10-28-3990~0.JPGAS 10-28-3990 - Extra Lunar Object156 visiteUn profondo ringraziamento va al Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) il quale, a distanza di molto tempo dalla prima richiesta operata da Lunar Explorer Italia (tramite il Dr Paolo C. Fienga), ha rintracciato negli Archivi NASA-Apollo questo rarissimo e controverso frame Apollo 10 e ce lo ha messo a disposizione nella sua versione originale e non compressa.
I commenti sono questi: "...we do not know what this object may represent, nor we have sources to contact in this regard. There really isn't anyone you can talk to about what an image shows. The people who analyzed the images originally have long since moved on to other jobs, retired, or died. All we have are the documents they left behind - some of which are online (...) However, as you correctly assumed, the artifact is not part of the US Spacecraft, but it was something caught in Lunar Orbit at the time the picture was taken. Its origin is, and most likely shall remain, unknown (...).

as12-47-6919.JPGAS 12-47-6919 - Pete Conrad and Lunar Equipment54 visiteCaption NASA originale:"117:33:06 MT - Down-Sun picture showing Pete Conrad with the carrybar/antenna mast in his left hand and a Universal Handling Tool (UHT) which he is using to release the Central Station antenna gimbal assembly.
The object in the foreground is the Magnetometer, which Alan Bean will unfold when he deploys it. Note that Conrad has laid his tongs down on the pallet. After he and Bean finish the ALSEP deployment, Pete will use the tongs to collect rocks".

Note that the SEQ Bay doors are closed and that the focal point is much closer than the footpad. The picture was taken sometime after 116:34:14 MT, when Pete took AS 12-46-6785, which is the last picture showing the doors open".Apr 29, 2006
