David Scott Telephotographs of distant moonscapes, viewed from Station 9A and from the landing site, EVA 3 Apollo 15, 26 July - 7 August 1971 Four vintage gelatin silver prints on fibre-based paper, each 25.4 x 20.3 cm (10 x 8 in), BLACK NUMBERED in top margins: NASA AS15-89-12070, NASA AS15-89-12106, AS15-89-12175 and AS15-84-11327 (NASA/Manned Spacecraft Center) Footnotes: Apollo 15 was the first mission equipped with a 500-mm lens Hasselblad to document the areas the crew could not explore. From station 9A on the edge of Hadley Rille, David Scott used the telephoto lens to photograph interesting moonscapes. He captured a debris-filled crater on the opposite wall of the lunar canyon (first photograph) and the lip of the canyon with the mare surface beyond (second photograph). Back at the landing site, he used the telephoto lens to photograph a dark crater on Mount Hadley Delta (third photograph). "We had to push very hard to get a 500-mm lens. There was a lot of scepticism on whether it would be useful at all. And we were always pleased that it was useful. And yeah, we got some great pictures, because it was pretty easy. You point the dude and you've got a great scene out there to take pictures of." David Scott
