NASA Red Number Color Photo AS11-36-5365 (21 July 1969) close-up view of the docking target on the Apollo 11 Lunar Module (LM) photographed from the Command Module during the LM/CSM docking in lunar orbit.

Astronaut Neil A. Armstrong, commander, and Edwin E. Aldrin Jr., lunar module pilot, in the LM, were returning from the lunar surface.

Astronaut Michael Collins, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in lunar orbit while Armstrong and Aldrin explored the moon.

 A vintage chromogenic 10" x 8" print on Kodak fiber-based paper bearing the "Paper Manufactured by Kodak" watermark on the verso.

 “This paper manufactured by Kodak” watermark faint. It is repeated diagonally across the paper.

 

 

Numbered NASA Photo AS11-36-5365 from late Dick Underwood collection.

The photo has overall even toning on verso and the fades to red, which is very common with the photos from this period, a factor due in great part to the humidity and heat in Houston.

 

Richard “Dick” Underwood (1927-2011) was chief engineer on the production of the first topographic maps of the moon. He was the first person to view every photograph from the Gemini, Apollo, Skylab, Apollo-Soyuz and the first 23 space shuttle missions.

He also provided technical training to every astronaut who went in to space in the 20th century.
