Summary

[edit]
Description

Apollo 15 Hasselblad image from film magazine 81/QQ - Orbital. This is figure 3-34 of the Apollo 15 Preliminary Science Report (NASA SP-289, 1972), which has the following caption:

Sharp raised-rim crater with rays. Rays of dark ejecta streak the bright halo surrounding this sharp crater on the crest of the northeast rim of Gibbs Crater. The rim of Gibbs, which trends from upper right to lower left through the center reseau cross and through the sharp crater, is not prominent in this telephotograph taken with the 500-mm lens. This feature was selected during premission planning for photography if the opportunity and film were available. The Apollo 15 astronauts photographed many such contingency targets during the final revolutions in lunar orbit.
