APOLLO 12 LUNAR SURFACE PANONRAMIC VIEW AT THE SURVEYOR 3 SPACECRAFT
PROVIDES A PROSPECTIVE OF SURVEYOR 3'S VIEW OF THE MOON
Large black and white photograph, 20 x 24 inches. Captions along the lower border reads in part: "Prepared by Mapping Sciences Laboratory, Science & Applications Directorate, Manned Spacecraft Center, January 1970." Large photographs of this type were created just after to flight to assist with post mission analysis.
During Conrad and Bean's second lunar surface moon walk, they photographed, inspected, and returned parts from the Surveyor 3 spacecraft located some 600 feet from their Lunar Module. The astronauts completed a partial Hasselblad panoramic (pan) photography of the area which has Surveyor 3's TV camera and extendable sample collection arm at the left and center. The lunar horizon can be seen along the top and numerous small craters at the pan center and to the right. Surveyor 3 landed some 31 months before the flight of Apollo 12 during November 1969. Parts returned by Conrad and Bean assisted understanding of long term exposure of flight equipment on the lunar surface.
