Apollo11, Sea of Tranquility, July 20, 1969, frames A11-40-5872 and A11-40-5874. On July 20th, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the Moon. Their moon walk lasted about 2h30 during which Buzz Aldrin deployed the Solar Wind Collector (SWC), a foil sheet which he is pointing at the Sun and than the flag. Note the word 'Shade' printed on the bottom of the back side. The word 'Sun' is printed on the sunward side. Buzz then saluted the U.S. Flag.
