More Details
The Apollo spacecraft "America" had a very special camera in its Service Module - a Panorama Camera, a high resolution camera which made the best Moon pictures for the next 30 years. Each negative is in the size of 25 x 200 cm
With a magnification lens you can see bolders around some craters and their large shadows. Apollo 17 photographed the Mare Serenitatis which was the location of the terminator.
THIS IS A "DIRECT NEGATIVE" (early 1973), MADE BY THE NASA PHOTO LABORATORY, OF THE ORIGINAL FLOWN FILM (December 1972). Evans made his EVA during the flight between the Earth and the Moon. He recovered the film rolls of these pictures!
