Description
The original "Earthrise" photo
Lunar Orbiter I: Vintage Large 1966 NASA Photo, the First Photo
of the Entire Earth Taken from the Moon. A 20" x 16"
heavyweight original photo as transmitted to Earth and received at
the NASA tracking station at Robledo De Chavela near Madrid, Spain.
This crescent of the Earth was photographed August 23, 1966, when
the spacecraft was on its 16th orbit. This was the first American
spacecraft to orbit the moon, photographing potential landing sites
for the upcoming Surveyor and Apollo missions. Quite a landmark
photograph and rarely seen in this size. Some edge roughness and
minor crinkling, fine.
