Description

Apollo 12 Hasselblad image from film magazine 47/V - EVA-1.
This is figure 1-20 of the Apollo 12 Preliminary Science Report, which has the following caption:

The deployed ALSEP is visible in this northwest-looking view. The lunar surface magnetometer experiment is in the foreground, and the other objects on the lunar surface (from left to right) are: a discarded subpallet and cover; the solar-wind spectrometer experiment; the suprathermal ion detector experiment, with the darker radioisotope thermoelectric generator behind it; the ALSEP central station, with an astronaut adjusting the antenna; the passive seismic experiment (PSE); and the discarded PSE girdle. The deployment of the ALSEP was one of the major tasks of the first EVA period.

This photo is also shown as figure 10-74 and has the following caption:

Small crater (8 m in diameter and 1 to 2 m deep) with soft fine-grained material at the slopes and bottom, located at the ALSEP deployment site. Note bootprints left by Astronaut Bean as he walked through this crater.
