Summary

Description Apollo 16 Hasselblad image from film magazine 117/F - EVA-3.
This photo is used in Figure 4-35 of the Apollo 16 Preliminary Science Report (NASA SP-315), which has the following caption:
This photograph was taken by the LMP from the LRV as the astronauts drove toward the LM near the end of the third EVA period. The dark areas around the LM are vehicle and boot tracks, which reflect the intense activity associated with the vehicle, ALSEP deployment, and sample collection. The ALSEP station can be seen along the right margin of the photograph. The white area just above the ALSEP station is composed of South Ray and Baby Ray Craters approximately 6 km hi the distance. The light color is from the blanket of material that ejected from the craters when they were formed. Just to the left of the LM is a crater that is approximately 25 m in diameter. The CDR flew the LM over this crater just before landing. Stone Mountain forms the skyline along the upper left in the photograph. The golden object in the foreground is the TV camera that provided the Earth with real-time coverage of the mission.
