Description

Apollo 15 Hasselblad image from film magazine 84/MM 500mm SEVA, EVA-1 & 2. This is figure 3-19 of the Apollo 15 Preliminary Science Report (NASA SP-289, 1972), which has the following caption:
On the side of Hadley Delta at station 6A, the commander took a series of photographs with the 500-mm telephoto lens. The large crater in the foreground, at a distance of approximately 2 km, is Dune; and the series of white dots to the left of the LM (approximately 5 km distant) is the deployed ALSEP. The huge crater that forms the background above the LM is Pluton at a distance of 8 km. Pluton is approximately 800 m in diameter, and the largest boulder in the crater is approximately 20 m in diameter.
A labeled version of this photo is also figure 5-42 of the Apollo 15 Preliminary Science Report, which has the following caption:

The LM and Pluton Crater are shown in this 500-mm photograph taken from station 6A during EVA-2 on the lower slopes of Hadley Delta (160 m above LM level).
