拍品專文

Station 8 was located at Wreck Crater about 3 km south southwest of the Lunar Module.
Duke and Young are seen gathering lunar samples in these B&W reproductions from a color TV transmission.

“At station 8, we were delighted to recognize this ray of ejecta material from South Ray Crater. This was one of our principal geologic objectives,” noted Charles Duke (Constantine, p. 107).

An extremely rare frame from the panoramic sequence taken by Duke near Wreck Crater.
Young aligns the antenna so that Mission Control gets TV coverage of station 8. The eastern part of Smoky Mountain is in the left background.

“Incidentally during the drive to station 8 the Rover lost its rear-wheel drive, and for a moment there was a possibility that the EVA would need to be cut short in case the crew had to return to the LM on foot which was over 3 km away” (Constantine, p. 106).

146:42:25 Duke: Okay, Tony (England at Mission Control). Starting our pan from about the 1 o’clock position of the Rover, sort of bracketing these blocks here. [...]
146:42:38 Duke: John, before I do this (pan), how about checking my (LMP Hasselblad) lens? [...]
146:42:50 Young: How’s mine (meaning his CDR Hasselblad lens), Charlie?
146:42:53 Duke: Yours is great.
146:42:54 Young: Getting it (Duke’s lens) good. [...]
146:43:23 Duke: And the regolith here, is firmer than up on Stone. We’re in a blocky field here.
Predominant (rock) size is 10 to 15 centimeters, but the biggest one is a couple of meters. And you’ll see that (on the TV) 12 o’clock from the Rover. [...]
146:43:51 Duke: Okay; pan’s complete. [...]
146:44:42 Young: Okay, Houston, you should have us now (on the TV).
146:44:43 England (Mission Control): Okay; we sure do.

Duke is pushing a double core tube into the ground using the hammer in his left hand.

“On the third blow, Charlie hits a buried rock and makes no further progress” (from the ALSJ mission transcript at 146:49:50 GET).

The Rover is at the right with the TV camera pointing at Duke. In the near foreground the tongs are planted in the ground. The lunar rake is also visible (bottom right).

146:48:58 Duke: Okay, I pushed the double core in, Tony (England at Mission Control), about halfway up the first (section).
146:49:12 Young: Charlie, I’ll get a locator on you and a down-Sun (for the double core), too.
146:49:15 Duke: Okay, great. [...]
146:49:41 Duke: Don’t believe it.
146:49:50 Duke: Ummm. (Pause)
146:49:58 Young: What’s the matter, Charlie?
146:50:01 Duke: Not going in too well!
146:50:05 Young: Pretty hard around here.
