Summary

DescriptionSurveyor 1 SP-168 p64b.jpg	English: In reference (to this photograph), LEONARD D. JAFFE, Surveyor Project Scientist, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, said, "This photograph was made during the lunar night, using light provided by the Earth. It shows a footpad and adjacent parts of Surveyor I against the darker background of the lunar surface. The indentation made by the footpad in the surface is also visible. "As evidenced by this picture, it is possible to get useful photographs on the Moon at night, using earthshine for illumination. The surface is bright enough for human vision. "The bright spot at the left," added Jaffe, "is a reflection of the Earth in the optical system. The small circular dish with radial stripes is a calibrated photometric target mounted on the spacecraft leg. It permits accurate determination of the light intensity and surface brightness. "This photograph was taken by Surveyor l's television system on June 14, 1966, at 16:35 Greenwich mean time. The iris aperture (which provided nominal focal ratios ranging from f/4 to f/22) was f/4. The exposure time (150 milliseconds in the normal mode) was 4 minutes."
