(NASA AS11-40-5877) This photo was used again in Figure 3-12 in the Apollo 11 Preliminary Science Report, which has the following caption: Hasselblad photograph AS11-40-5877 showing an astronaut's bootprint in the lunar surface. This photo was used again in Figure 4-24 in the Apollo 11 Preliminary Science Report, which has the following caption:
The initial analysis was presented in the Apollo 11 Preliminary Science Report [15] that was released in October 1969 - just over 3 months after the mission. By 2009/2010, digital technologies had emerged that allowed the image archive to be revisited in much greater detail than previously.
Apollo 11: As It Happened, a 1994 six-hour documentary on ABC News' coverage of the event [287] First Man, 2018 film by Damien Chazelle based on the 2005 James R. Hansen book First Man: The Life of Neil A. Armstrong. Apollo 11, a 2019 documentary film by Todd Douglas Miller with restored footage of the 1969 event [288] [289]
That's why almost every NASA Apollo 11 photo you see of an astronaut on the moon actually shows Aldrin, and not Armstrong. (By the way, don't Google "Apollo 11 images" unless you're prepared to ...
Unlike Apollo 11 though, a higher proportion of these were taken whilst on the surface rather than inside the LM before or after the EVAs. The post-mission Preliminary Science Report [2] indicates that the crew took 23 [3] panoramas whereas the ALSJ records 29 examples. In some cases, the complete, 360° panoramas were impacted by the low Sun ...
The PSEP was placed 16.8 meters (55 ft) from the Apollo 11 Lunar Module at Tranquility Base on July 21, 1969. [1] A set of 15 different commands could be sent to the experiment package from mission control on Earth to direct the instrument's levelling and calibration motors. [1]
The Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP) comprised a set of scientific instruments placed by the astronauts at the landing site of each of the five Apollo missions to land on the Moon following Apollo 11 (Apollos 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17). Apollo 11 left a smaller package called the Early Apollo Scientific Experiments Package, or EASEP.
The contracted batch of 15 Saturn Vs was enough for lunar landing missions through Apollo 20. Shortly after Apollo 11, NASA publicized a preliminary list of eight more planned landing sites after Apollo 12, with plans to increase the mass of the CSM and LM for the last five missions, along with the payload capacity of the Saturn V.
