Buzz Aldrin Two overlapping photographs of Buzz Aldrin's first panorama of Tranquility Base showing the so-called "Double Crater", unpublished views, Apollo 11, 16-24 July 1969 Two vintage gelatin silver prints on fibre-based paper [NASA photos No AS11-40-5889, AS11-40-5890, originally shot on colour film], 20,3 x 25,4 cm (8 x 10 in), numbered AS11-40-5889, 40-5890 in margin, with original handwritten USGS inventory numbers identifying lunar rocks (NASA/USGS), (2) Footnotes: An extremely rare 2-photo panoramic view from the first manned mission on the surface of another world. Aldrin took this panoramic sequence from the rim of the so-called Double Crater on a position 7 m west of the LM ladder. The interior and wall of Double Crater are visible in detail. The diameter of the younger (and largest) eastern component of Double Crater to the right is about 12 m. 'I was struck by the contrast between the starkness of the shadows and the desert-like barrenness of the rest of the surface.' Buzz Aldrin
