Apollo 11: lunar rock - Apollo 11: lunar rock - First sample of lunar rock brought by astronauts of the Apollo 11 mission. 27 July 1969. This is the first lunar sample that was photographed in detail in the Lunar Receiving Laboratory at the Manned Spacecraft Center. The photograph shows a granular, fine - grained, mafic (iron magnesium rich) rock. At this early stage of the examination, this rock appears similar to several igneous rock types found on Earth. The scale is printed backwards due to the photographic configuration in the Vacuum Chamber. The sample number is 10003. This rock was among the samples collected by astronauts Neil A. Armstrong and Edwin E. Aldrin Jr. during their lunar surface extravehicular activity on July 20, 1969. 27 July 1969

Apollo 14: the LEM - Apollo 14 Lunar Module on the Moon. Feb 05 1971 - The lunar module of Apollo 14 on the Moon. 05/02/1971. Apollo 14 Lunar Module (LM) on the moon, as photographed during the first Apollo 14 extravehicular activity (EVA) on the lunar surface. The astronauts have already deployed the U.S. flag. Note the laser ranging retro reflector (LR - 3) at the foot of the LM ladder. The LR-3 was deployed later. While astronauts Alan B. Shepard Jr., commander, and Edgar D. Mitchell, lunar module pilot, descended in the LM to explore the moon, astronaut Stuart A. Roosa, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in lunar orbit

Surface of the Moon - Apollo 15 - Lunar surface - Apollo 15 - Mountain called Silver Spur in the Hadley Delta region on the Moon, Apollo 15 mission. A telephoto lens view of the prominent feature called Silver Spur in the Hadley Delta region, photographed during the Apollo 15 lunar surface extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Hadley - Apennine landing site. The distance from the camera to the spur is about 10 miles. The field of view across the bottom is about one mile. Structural formations in the mountain are clearly visible. There are two major units. The upper unit is characterized by massive subunits, each one of which is approximately 200 feet deep. The lower major unit is characterized by thinner bedding and cross bedding

Apollo 16: John Young drives the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) - Apollo 16: John Young drives the Lunar Roving Vehicle - John Young in the lunar jeep (shadow of the lunar module in the foreground). 23/04/1972. Astronaut John W. Young, commander of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission, drives the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) to its final parking place near the end of the third Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA - 3) at the Descartes landing site. Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., lunar module pilot, took this photograph looking southward. The flank of Stone Mountain can be seen on the horizon at left. The shadow of the Lunar Module (LM) occupies much of the picture. Apr 23 1972

Aboard the command module were astronauts Alan Bean, Owen Garriott and Jack Lousma, who remained with the Skylab space station in Earth's orbit for 59 days. Note the one solar array system wing on the Orbital Workshop (OWS) which was successfully deployed during extravehicular activity (EVA) on the first manned Skylab flight.

Mission to Phobos - Phobos mission ready for departure - A spaceship assemblies in Earth orbit is ready to depart to Phobos, one of Mars's satellites. This ship consists of several fuel tanks and an Orion-type space capsule with three astronauts on board. No landing gear is required because the mass of Phobos is so low that this satellite can be approached by astronauts in extravehicular exit. A complete rocket system for delivering a crew of three to Mars' moon Phobos and returning them to the Earth. The vast bulk of the rocket is propellant divided into stages that are each released in turn as the mission progresses. On the far right are the crew accomodations and an attached Orion class command module. No dedicated lander is required as Phobos' mass is so low that it could be easily approached by the command module and explored by suited astrogeologists in Manned Maneuvering Units (MMUS)

An explorer steps out of the airlock and on to the porch of a martian motor home to begin several hours of extravehicular activity. The explorer's specialized suit is revealing of the extreme inhospitably of the martian environment to human life. Without the suit, not only would a human immediately suffer from Mars' lack of breathable oxygen and extreme cold, but the very thin atmosphere would result in all the fluids in the explorer's body quickly coming to a boil - at room temperature. That alone would cause immediate and catastrophic organ failure, unconsciousness, and imminent death. Thereafter the flesh would quickly desiccate and any liquids that had not boiled away would solidify, leaving a freeze-dried corpse far more impervious to decay than any Earth-bound mumm

This picture is a reproduction taken from a color television transmission made by the color RCA TV camera mounted on the lunar roving vehicle. Noting that they had collected a very significant rock composed of many fragments, Schmitt said, “” A portion of a rock will be sent to a representative agency or museum in each of the countries represented by the young people in Houston today...”” 13 Dec 1972

John Young jumps off the ground and salutes the United States flag at the Descartes landing site during the first Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA-1). He is off the ground about 1.45 seconds which, in the lunar gravity field, means that he launched himself at a velocity of about 1.17 m/s and reached a maximum height of 0.42 m. Although the suit and backpack weigh as much as he does, his total weight is only about 65 pounds (30 kg) and, to get this height, he only had to bend his knees slightly and then push up with his legs. In the background, we can see the UV astronomy camera, the flag, the LM, the Rover with the TV camera watching John, and Stone Mountain. 20/04/1972
