Beschreibung:

"Apollo 11 LM Powered Ascent (Site 2)," diagram, NASA/MSC/FOD Mission Planning and Analysis Division, June 30, 1969, 22 by 17 inches. Signed "Buzz Aldrin, July 21, 1969." The companion to the descent diagram (lot 215). The upper part features the full ascent profile of Lunar Module Eagle starting with lift-off from the surface, pitch over, surface crater recognition, and orbit insertion. The altitude location of Columbia is plotted above Eagle’s ascent profile. The vertical phase of lift-off is shown with a down-range versus altitude graph plus two matching views as seen from Armstrong’s docking window. A lunar map plots a wide view of the LM ground track up to the sunlight terminator point. A summary table cross-references lift-off and end of vertical rise with the corresponding elapsed time, altitude rate, altitude in feet, and several other CSM–LM related parameters.
