APOLLO 11 AS 11-40-5850 HR-01.jpg
APOLLO 11 AS 11-40-5850 HR-01.jpgAS 11-40-5850 - The first "Moon-Shot" (HR)151 visiteOriginal caption:"109:30:53 MT - First EVA picture. Neil's first Pan from West of the ladder.
Jettison bag under the Descent Stage, South footpad, bent probe, strut supports, more or less up-Sun so we are seeing the shadowed faces of boulders.
There is a fair sized crater East-SouthEast of the footpad - probably East Crater - which Neil will visit at the end of the EVA".

APOLLO 11 AS11-44-6574.jpgAS 11-44-6574 - The "Eagle" (HR)81 visiteCaption NASA originale:"A view of the LM Eagle, shortly after undocking from 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.
To verify for yourself, please refer and compare this photograph with that of the Apollo 10 LM ( AS 10-34-5085 )".

APOLLO 12 AS 12-46-6724.jpgAS 12-46-6724 - Lookin' up at the Lunar Module179 visiteSubito dopo la discesa ed i primi (comunque timidi...) passi sulla Luna, occorreva - come da Procedure Operative - dare una buona occhiata al LM per verificare che tutto fosse in ordine e che non si fossero verificati problemi/danni (peraltro visibili solo dall'esterno) durante la fase di allunaggio. Ma tutto era a posto, per fortuna, come può testimoniare questa fotografia!
APOLLO 12 AS 12-46-6777.jpg
APOLLO 12 AS 12-46-6777.jpgAS 12-46-6777 - The Lunar Module without shadow and horizon (3) - HR126 visiteOriginal caption:"Rightward of 6776, showing the South-Eastern face of the Descent Stage with the doors to the Scientific Equipment (SEQ) Bay doors closed and the plutonium fuel cask in its upright, stowed position. (...)".

Nota: qualche "Ricercatore", guardando questa immagine, ha dedotto che il LM fosse fatto di "cartone". Non crediamo che sia il caso di trattare, in questa sede, le specifiche tecniche dal LM e, in particolare, i rivestimenti esterni i quali, effettivamente, ricordano la "carta da pacco" quando viene stropicciata ma, se siete curiosi e diffidenti, Vi rinviamo alle Technical Specs (con relative Procedures and Check-Lists) che vengono riportate, Missione per Missione, in un apposito paragrafo all'interno di ciascuno dei 7 Capitoli in cui è suddiviso l'Apollo Lunar Surface Journal.
APOLLO 12 AS 12-46-6783 HR.jpg
APOLLO 12 AS 12-46-6783 HR.jpgAS 12-46-6783 - Alan Bean, RTG pack and LM (HR)107 visiteDown-Sun photograph of Alan Bean, who has just removed the RTG package from the SEQ Bay. We can see the "saddlebag" he is wearing at his left hip. The saddlebag material resembles the Teflon cloth used for the Sample Collection Bags (SCBs) used on Apollos 15, 16 and 17. Note that the transmitted light in the shadow of the saddlebag has a reddish-brown color. We can see the boom on which the RTG package rode as it was pulled out of the SEQ bay. We can also see the pulleys that were operated with the tapes. The SEQ bay door that covered the right-hand 2/3rds is folded up out of the way. At the left side of the bay, we can see the vertically hinged portion of the door pulled back out of the way. Note that the SEQ bay is not an integral part of the LM structure but, rather, hangs on the outside. Below the SEQ bay, we can see a shield which protects the landing radar (mounted on the bottom of the Descent Stage) from heat radiating from the engine bell.

APOLLO 12 AS 12-46-6785 HR-1.jpgAS 12-46-6785 - Alan Bean, RTG pack, LM and...the Blue Flare! (HR)124 visiteAlan Bean has placed the RTG package on the ground. Note the cooling fins on the RTG. Note the pull rings on the edge closest to Al. These pull rings are used to release "pip pins" with which some pieces of equipment are attached to the RTG pallet. The light-colored piece of gear that is attached to the part of the RTG pallet that is on top in this picture is the SIDE (Suprathermal Ion Detection Experiment). Note the deployment rail and pulleys extending out from the SEQ bay above the upper ends of the lanyards. The distinctive ring-shaped top of the fuel cask can be seen behind the left-hand SEQ bay door. The landing radar is under the SEQ Bay directly beneath the partition separating the 2 ALSEP compartments. The shield that protects the radar from descent engine exhaust is farther to the right.

Cerchiatura Rossa: una Lucina Blu che ci ricorda, davvero molto da vicino, la Blue Flare che apparve in alcuni (storici) frames Apollo 14. Siamo in attesa di ricevere il frame originale e non compresso per verificare un pò meglio ma, già da adesso, ci sentiamo di poter dire che quello Star-like Object non sembra un photo-artifact. E se non lo fosse, allora dovremmo chiederci "chi" o "che cosa" sta osservando quello che stanno facendo i Ragazzi dell'Intrepid...

APOLLO 14 AS 14 64-9193 HR.jpgAS 14-64-9193 - Crescent Earth and LM142 visitePer questo bellissimo frame, solo una curiosità: accanto alla "falce di Terra" si riesce a vedere una stella.
Questa immagine - al pari di molte altre - è dedicata dallo Staff di Lunar Explorer Italia a tutti gli Scienziati e gli Esperti che, da 35 anni, ci dicono che le stelle, nei frames Apollo, NON si vedono e NON si possono vedere...

APOLLO 14 AS 14 66-9234.jpgAS 14-66-9234 - Way down, deep down in the sand190 visiteUn dettaglio di una delle "zampe" (landing pad) del LM che giace semi-affondata nella sabbia Lunare. Dato che in passato si era parlato anche - e per tante volte - del LM il quale, secondo alcuni, era perennemente pulitissimo (troppo!) e delle sue "zampe" le quali apparivano sempre immacolate e del tutto libere dalla, pur collosa, "Moon dust", eccoVi un'immagine che mostra (finalmente) una parte del LM che si è "sporcata". Sembra una sciocchezza, ma è su dettagli come questi che si costruiscono le leggende relative al cosiddetto "Moon Hoax"!

APOLLO 14 AS 14 66-9254 HR-1.jpgAS 14-66-9254 - LM and "disturbed" soil107 visiteOriginal caption:"114:53:38 MT. Frame from Al's 4 o'clock pan. Right side and aft section of the LM, looking South. An excellent picture of the LM with many structural details are visible. The area under, and slightly behind the engine bell shows evidence of disturbed soil resulting from the Descent Engine exhaust.
Also visible in the crater next to the rear (-Z) footpad is the track made by the probe as it scraped across the surface.
The right (+Y) footpad has dug into the soft rim of a crater, causing the LM to slide slightly. Refer, also, to AS 14-66-9269, a view of the left (-Y) footpad to see more evidence of this northward slide".

APOLLO 14 AS 14 66-9258 HR.jpgAS 14-66-9258 - Sliding's effect (HR)96 visiteOriginal caption:"114:53:38 MT. Al took this picture of the North footpad during his initial LM inspection. Note the pile of dirt pushed up by final spacecraft motions (the so-called "sliding").
