APOLLO 8 'MOON'

21–27 December 1968
'NASA image AS8-14-2506'
Vintage chromogenic print on fibre–based Kodak paper
25.4 × 20.3 cm


Soon after the first trans-Earth injection performed by a manned spacecraft, the Apollo 8 astronauts became the first humans to witness this extraordinary view of the entire moon in an orientation that is not seen by terrestrial observers, from above its eastern limb.

The 24 astronauts of the Apollo moon missions between December 1968 and December 1972 were the only humans to witness such views of the entire moon.

William Anders took this historic photograph with a 250mm telephoto lens. Familiar frontside features such as the Seas of Tranquility, Fertility, Crises, and Nectar are easily identified. Features near the east limb as viewed from Earth, such as the Southern Sea, Smyth’s Sea, the Border Sea, and the Humboldt Crater, can be viewed without extreme foreshortening. Lunar farside features occupy most of the right half of the picture.
