Apollo 11: Catching Some Sun
Neil Armstrong took this image on July 20, 1969, showing the Apollo 11 lunar module, Eagle, and Buzz Aldrin on the Moon's surface. Aldrin is unfurling the Solar Wind Composition Experiment, a foil sheet designed to trap particles from the solar wind. Bright sunlight creates long shadows across the lunar surface.
