Vintage chromogenic print on fibre-based Kodak paper, 20.3 x 25.4cm (8 x 10in), NASA MSC caption and “A Kodak Paper” watermark on verso, numbered NASA AS11-44-6665 in red in top margin When the photograph was taken, the spacecraft was already 10,000 nautical miles from the Moon. “It really does appear that there are three different Moons. One that you’re on, one that you’re in orbit of, and one that’s a long way away. And they don’t blend, and you don’t get the transition. There was only one exception to it, and that was shortly after we left the Moon, leading back to Earth, after we made the burn and it was okay. Then we could orient and look back and watch it grow smaller, from the back side. . . And that was the only time when we were really allowed to experience the change.” Buzz Aldrin Illustrated: Moon p.210
