Summary

Description
English: Low-resolution photo of lunar surface in Earthshine. Kodak 2485 very high-speed ASA 6000 black and white film.
This photo was used in Figure 4-50 of the Apollo 17 Preliminary Science Report (SP-330, 1973), which has the following caption:
Mare Orientale in earthshine. In this south-looking, high-oblique, 35-mm photograph, two of the rings of Mare Orientale are distinctly visible. The photograph includes the area in which the CMP reported seeing a possible light flash. The marelike area in the middle foreground is Lacus Autumni. Beyond it is Lacus Veris, at the south end of which is the crater Eichstadt K. The Montes Rook delineate the inner of the two rings pictured here. The outer ring, to the left, is marked by the Montes Cordillera.
