Anaglyphs in the image libraries created from sequential panorama frames by the ALSJ editor exist only because of Yuri Krasilnikov's willingness to teach me the art. Whatever value the anaglyphs have is due to Yuri's insights and guidance. Flaws are my doing. Briefly, panorama stitching software Hugin is used to create both non-stereo pan assemblies and remapped versions of the images. The latter are then made into anaglyphs using GIMP. The individual remapped images are linked from the corresponding Library entries for the original frames. The remapped images can be used to create stereo views using other methods.

For those interested in the subject of Apollo Photography and the Color of the Moon, see a brief discussion written for the ALSJ by Michael Light.

Journal Contributor Paul White has made detailed comparisons of cloud patterns seen in a large number of Apollo images with imagery taken at close to the same time by various meteorlogical satellites.

This Apollo 16 Image Library contains all of the pictures taken on the lunar surface by the astronauts together with pictures from pre-flight training and pictures of equipment and the flight hardware. High-resolution version of many of the lunar surface images are included. A source for both thumbnail and low -resolution versions of the lunar surface images is a website compiled by Paul Spudis and colleagues at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston.

[Journal Contributor James Fincannon has used sunrise-to-sunset sequences of LROC images on the site to demonstrate that, as of 2009-2011, the Apollo 16 flag is still aloft and casting a shadow. First Look - 12 July 2009 19:04:51 UTC (1.4 Mb

This image was taken from 100 km altitude with the Sun at an elevation of 8.9 degrees and an azimuth of 271.7 degrees. Resolution in the raw file is 1 m/pixel. Labeled versions and a link to the raw file (nacr00000ada) are available at the LROC website.

LRO image nacr00000ad8 was taken 12 July 2009 19:04:51 UTC. The Sun was low in the west, so the tracks made by the LRV are not visible. Station maps from the Apollo 16 Preliminary Science Report have been added. Locations based on Figures 3 (0.6Mb) and 6 (0.4Mb) in Chapter D1 (3Mb) of the USGS Professional Paper.

See, also, a labeled version (2.1Mb). Note the length of the shadow cast by House Rock, partly because of its size but also because the shadow falls on ground sloping down the the east.

See, also, a Mark Robinson article about LROC observations of North Ray that includes a stunning portrait of House Rock and a topographic map of the crater.

Synthetic perspective view looking south from the Apollo 16 landing area, topography is rendered naturally (no vertical exaggeration). Made from LROC images M102064759 and M102057692, taken 12 July 2009. NASA/GSFC/Ohio State University. Further details available at the LROC website.

John Pfannerstill has scanned three areas of this frame. The first shows the area north of the LM up to North Ray Crater. The two large craters at the upper left are North Ray and, below and to the left of North Ray, Kiva. House Rock is on the southeastern rim of North Ray.

This portion of the frame shows the area around the LM. The large crater at top center is Palmetto. The LM is near the center of the image, at the center of a small bright patch. A detail shows the LM and the craters along the EVA-1 traverse. The LM can be seen just above center near the right edge of the picture. North is up and the LM is in the bright area created by the engine exhaust on the west side of a small crater. A detail identifies the named craters which are mentioned during the EVA-1 traverse.

This portion of the frame shows the area south to Stone Mountain. South Ray Crater is off the frame at the lower left. Baby Ray Crater is on the left edge of the image just below center.

Brian McInall has combined the three image sections.

106:15:45 Post-Landing Window Pan (132k)

After configuring the LM for a Stay, John took at series of pictures out his window, AS16-113- 18296 to 18303; and Charlie took a series out his window, AS16-113-18304 to 18310. Composite assembly by Dave Byrne. A comparison between the down-Sun photos taken out John's window (18299) and Charlie's (18309) indicates that the LM is facing about 4 degrees south of the down-Sun direction. The fiducial separation of about 8.6 degrees is marked. At the time these photo were taken, the Sun was at an azimuth of about 088 and an elevation of 15.5 degrees about the eastern horizon. Consequently, the LM is facing an azimuth of about 264 (six degrees south of west).

Laboratory photo of the Lunar Portable Magnetometer (LPM) which was flown on Apollo 14 and Apollo 16. The box (lower left) containing the three-component readout gauges, the on/off switch and the high/low-gain switch was mounted on the MET (Apollo 14) or the back of the Rover (Apollo 16). The tripod was deployed 15 meters away from the MET or Rover and, as the tripod was carried out to the deployment site, the ribbon cable unwound off both sides of the centrally-mounted cable reel. Once the astronaut deployed the tripod, he went back to the MET/Rover and initiated a measurement. After waiting a pre-determined amount of time for transients to damp out, he read the X, Y, and Z values on each of the two gain settings. He then went out to the tripod and changed the orientation of the sensor head at the top of the tripod, returned to the MET/Rover and made another measurement. Once the measurement series was finished, he retrieved the tripod, brought it back to the MET/Rover and rewound the cable using the handle visible on the right-hand side of the reel. Both Ed Mitchell (Apollo 14) and John Young (Apollo 16) had a great deal of trouble rewinding the cable.

John Young trains with the UV Astronomy camera. After leveling and aligning the telescope, John pointed it at desired targets using the screw wheels associated with the altitude scale on the upper part of the camera facing us and the azimuth scale the circles the base. The cable running out of the picture to the right probably connects the camera to its battery. The camera had to be deployed in the LM shadow while the battery had to be deployed out in sunlight. 22 December 1971. Scan by Kipp Teague.

John Young works at the back of the 1-g LRV trainer at the Cape. He may be stowing the cable reel for the Lunar Portable Magnetometer (LPM). Note where the cable enters the readout box at the top, back corner of the Rover near John's right hand. Below and slightly to the right of the magnetometer legs, note the gray tube - or geopost - on which the geopallet is mounted. The geopost is attached to the rear deck of the Rover and forms the pivot axis which allows the crew to swing the geopallet outward and access its inner surface. A detail shows the vise used to separate sections of the deep core is mounted on the top of the geopalletat right center. Note the 'CMP' decal of the top of John's camera, just behind the lens. In describing his discovery of orange soil at Shorty at 145:27:15 during Apollo 17, Jack Schmitt said that the soil was "almost the same color as the LMP decal on my camera." In a September 2004 exchange of e-mail, Jack said that the color of John's 'CDR' decal in the detail "looks pretty close." 22 December 1971. Research by J.L. Pickering.

John Young (left) uses the tongs to put a rock sample in a bag held low by Charlie Duke.

John Young (left) prepares to collect a sample with the Contact Soil Sampler. As is described in more detail at 147:56:47, John approaches a boulder slowly and carefully - in what came to be known as the Great Sneak - so as not to kick soil onto the target area, then reach over the boulder and press the sampler gently onto the soil surface on the side of the boulder away from the LM and the LRV. The idea is to collect a pristine sample of the very topmost soil layer. The tech on the left side of the picture is holding what may be John's cooling water hose (black). Behind John, we can see the shadow of another tech handling John's air hose and comm cable. Charlie's three cables/hoses go out the picture to the right.

With only two days to go before launch, the crew is in semi-isolation to reduce the chance of any of them being exposed to potential illness, such as the possible exposure to German measles (in the person of Charlie Duke) that kept Mattingly from flying on Apollo 13. Only a small number of people came into direct contact with the crew during the isolation period and, during briefings such as this one, people like El Baz who were not on the access list were seperated from the crew by a barrier.

Beginning in 2004, NASA began to provide scans from original film and, as they become available to the ALSJ, we are using them to replace all prior versions. These are presented at 300 dpi equivalent and are labeled "OF300". See a discussion from Arizona State University about the scanning process used on the original film.

Some images are currently available only as low-resolution scans provided by NASA Johnson in the mid-1990s. The individual scans have TARGA filenames. Markus Mehring has compiled cross-references between those filenames and the NASA photo ID designations customarily used. Other images are available as higher resolution scans from prints and, unless otherwise credited, were provided by Kipp Teague.

Ed Hengeveld has provided a set of thumbnails images (1 Mb) made from low-resolution scans provided by Glen Swanson of NASA Johnson.

Rightward of 17091. The prominent crater that is 1.5 fiducials up and 1.5 fiducials right from center in this image can also be seen in AS16-108-17676, a photo that Charlie took from Station 8. In that photo, the crater is about 2 fiducials up and 0.4 to the right. According to Figure 6-54 in the Apollo 16 Preliminary Science Report, Crown Crater, the largest crater on the western portion of the mountain, is 0.5 to 0.8 fiducials left and 1.7 fiducials up from center. Our line of sight is more or less parallel to the plan of the rim and, therefore, the crater is difficult to pick out in the Station 8 photo and in the LM photos. Here, it is about 0.4 fiducials up from center and extends from 0.5 to the right of center to 1.1 fiducials right.

John is standing with his knees slightly bent and the rake in his right hand. the Rover is in the distance above John's hands, with the high-gain antenna sticking up above the local horizon.

167:43:21 This is the first in a series of four pictures Charlie took of the base of House Rock. Note that the surface rocks in the foreground seem to be in good focus while the face of House Rock is out of focus. This suggests that Charlie made a poor choice of focal distance.

167:43:21 Second photo of the base of House Rock. Eric Nelson has created a red-blue anaglyph from 17341 and 342. Because Charlie was carrying the out-of-focus tongs (?) in the foreground, they moved with him between frames. Eric writes, "I simply stamped out the tool with nearby soil patches. I still feel something better can be done, but I need to think over the stereo composition a little more.". He also used FocusMagic to remove some of the effects of Charlie's inappropriate choice of focus setting.

Frames 17419-40 taken by Charlie Duke at the LM early in EVA-2. Either he or John takes two photos (17441-2) of the cosmic ray detector at the LM; frames 17443-17583 taken by John at Stations 4 to 9. Importantly, John and Charlie both took 'after' photos of a rock fragment Charlie knocked off a flat rock lying on the surface at Station 9: Charlie's are AS16-108-17632-3 and John's are AS16-107-17523-5. None of these five frames shows smudges like those appear on frames on Mag 114 that John took at Station 10 or on all the frames on Mag 116 that John used during EVA-3. This means that the the substance responsible for the smudges was not on the reaseau plate in either camera at this time.

Traverse from Station 5 to Station 6. The tall, relatively large rock above the TV camera is also above the TV camera - albeit farther way - in 17589. The rock is sitting just inside the northeast rim of a crater.

Traverse from Station 5 to Station 6. The group of rocks above and to the left of the TV camera can also be seen in 17590.

Traverse from Station 5 to Station 6. As can be seen in a high-contrast detail (568k the outbound Rover tracks closely skirt the near side of the crater. As indicated at the lower left in the detail, the righthand wheels dropped into a small, deep crater that probably gave them a solid 'thump'.

Traverse from Station 5 to Station 6. Some overlap between the extreme left of 17593 with the extreme right edge of 17592. Ravine Crater is on the flank of Smoky Mountain on the right.

Traverse from Station 5 to Station 6. The large boulder above the TV camera sunshield is in the distance above the camera in 17592.

Traverse from Station 5 to Station 6. No obvious rocks in common with 17594. The white spot in the distance is probably the result of a speck on the scanned film.

Charlie takes the next set of pictures during the drive from Station 6 to Station 8. As mentioned in the transcript starting at 146:26:40, Charlie fell the first time he tried to get in his Rover seat. John examined his camera lens, which proved to be dusty, but they decided to wait till they got to Station 8 before applying the dust brush.

122:49:27 Charlie took this picture to advance the film after loading the magazine prior to the traverse to Station 1.

122:58:46 Charlie took this picture, showing the view toward South Ray, shortly after climbing on the Rover for the first time, primarily to make sure that he would be able to take pictures during the drive. Although Jim Irwin took a few pictures from the Rover on one occasion when Dave Scott stopped to take a brief rest during the EVA-2 traverse to the Apennine Front, documentation of the Apollo 15 traverses was to have made with the 16-mm DAC movie camera. That effort was not successful and, for Apollo 16, Charlie will take pictures at regular intervals to supplement/backup the DAC. Charlie's traverse photography was so successful that the DAC was not used on the Apollo 17 Rover.

John is using Charlie's camera at the LM prior to the drive to Station 4 and takes this cross-Sun before of sample 60025, a 1.8 kg, white-matrix breccia, which is the large rock at the center of the image. See, also, frame AS16-113- 18301, a photo John took out his window before the post-landing rest period. Sample 60025 is near the fiducial mark one to the right and one below the center of 18301, as indicated in a labeled detail of 17866 with an inset detail from 18301.

143:14:14 John stepped to his left to get this stereo-companion to 17866. Eric Nelson has created a red-blue anaglyph.

143:15:08 Cross-Sun "after" of sample 60025. John moved from the top of the image area as he approached the sample, then bobbed down to grab it with his right hand. The imprints made by John's right knee and his right boot as he bobbed down are probably the ones to the right of center. The imprint of the sample is just to the left of center. The imprint John made with his right boot as he ran forward to regain his footing is probably the one at bottom right.

Traverse from the LM to Station 11. In a comparison between 18150 and 18153, it is evident that the righthand boulder is the smaller of the two and is much closer to the Rover as they approach from the SE. As can be inferred from Figure 6-6 in the Preliminary Science Report, the lefthand boulder is almost certainly Shadow Rock at Station 13. A comparison of details from AS16-111-18154 and from AS16-106-17393, a frame from Charlie's Station 13 pan, confirms the identification. The smaller, righthand boulder is the large, jagged-topped boulder just to the right of center in AS16-106-17400, another frame from Charlie's Station 13 pan.

Photos of John's jumping salutes and of Charlie's standing salute.

AS16-113-18339 (OF300) (208k or 1300k)

120:25:42 John Young jumps off the ground and salutes for this superb tourist picture. He is off the ground about 1.45 seconds which, in the lunar gravity field, means that he launched himself at a velocity of about 1.17 m/s and reached a maximum height of 0.42 m. Although the suit and backpack weigh as much as he does, his total weight is only about 65 pounds (30 kg) and, to get this height, he only had to bend his knees slightly and then push up with his legs. In the background, we can see the UV astronomy camera, the flag, the LM, the Rover with the TV camera watching John, and Stone Mountain. Journal Contributor Joe Cannaday notes that high-point of John's first jump was at a time close to 120:25:49 and the second was almost exactly three seconds later.

These stereo images were created by Yuri Krasilnikov, who writes, "A bit of artistry was necessary to create credible stereo. In the left-right pair, Charlie captured John's first jump in 18339, which is on the right. In the original of 18340, we see that John isn't as far off the ground and is tilted to his left. In addition, there are footprints beneath him that he made when he landed after the first jump, a clear indication that John is closer to Charlie than he was in 18339. Creation of a credible anaglyph required removal of the image of John from 18340 and careful replacement with the image of John from 18339."

Yuri has also made a two-frame animation (1Mb) of John's jumps. John is more upright in 18339; and there are prominent footprints at his second launch point in 18340.

See, also, a red-blue anaglyph (1.9 Mb) created by Erik van Meihgaarden, who writes, "John did two jumping salutes for Charlie, who took a picture each time John was near the top of his jump. Consequently, we are seeing not only from two slightly different view points but, also, when he was at slightly different places. The TV recordings of these jumps show that John was on the LM side of the flag. Combination of images from the two different jumps creates the impression that John is on Charlie's side of the flag. John also looks like he's jumped more than the half meter he actually achieved. In comparison, because the flag wasn't touched or moved between the two jumps, our stereoview of it is completely legitimate.

Anaglyph by Yuri Krasilnikov.

120:25:42 John's second jump lasts about 1.30 seconds and, consequently, his launch velocity is about 1.05 m/s and his maximum height is 0.34 m.

122:17:51. Close-up of the magnetometer. Charlie told CapCom Tony England that he was unable to deploy the magnetometer sunshade because the attempt moved one of the arms. The sunshade is the roll of gold-foil-covered material on a string suspended between the SW and NW arms of the magnetometer. The level bubble is on top of the body near the north edge.

This up-Sun shows that Charlie has successfully deployed the magnetometer sunshade. The RTG and the Central Station are in the background. John is now near the Central Station, possibly doing his last thumper shot.

122:43:20 John used the camera to take this up-Sun of the mortar pack.

Cross-Sun from the north of the mortar pack. After the astronauts left the Moon, experimenters on Earth sent signals to the mortar pack, via the radio aerial shown here, to launch each of the four grenades. Data from the four firings indicated that, underneath about 12 meters of regolith that covers the site, there is about 70 meters of low-sonic-velocity, poorly consolidated, impact debris on top of the high-velocity basement material.

This picture of the mortar pack was taken from the northeast and shows the magnetometer in the background.

122:42:18. John's photo from the northeast of the mortar package. Charlie Duke offers this description of the scene: "This picture shows the mortar package with the red flag extended and it's facing off parallel to the geophone line. You can't really see the geophone line in the background, but you can see where John walked. That's basically his footprints along the geophone line and it trends off to the northwest. And you can see the spaghetti cable that goes back to the Central Station - not only for the data but also for the power. The magnetometer's in the far background, just over the mortar package. You can see the RTG and Central Station."

122:42:55 View of the mortar pack from the southeast. After the astronauts left the Moon, experimenters on Earth sent signals to the mortar pack, via the radio aerial shown here, to launch each of the four grenades. Data from the four firings indicated that, underneath about 12 meters of regolith that covers the site, there is about 70 meters of low-sonic-velocity, poorly consolidated, impact debris on top of the high-velocity basement material. This is one of the last images on this magazine and the upper part of the frame was sunstruck when John changed mags. Sunstruck.

Initially used by Charlie Duke during EVA-1, albeit with the magazine loaded on John Young's camera. After Charlie finished a series of photos at the ALSEP site, he returned the camera to John, who used it during the rest of the EVA. John's last useable EVA-1 frame is 18441. The next two frame are sunstruck, a clear indication that John advance the film twice before removing the magazine from his camera for transfer up to the cabin. At 130:25:35 during the EVA-1 Debriefing, Deke is acting as CapCom and tells them to leave Mag114/B in the ETB so they can take it outside for EVA-2. The magazine was next used at EVA-2 Station 10, starting with 18444 and ending with 18470. Each frame from in this sequence shows a set of smudges. Detail of the smudge pattern change only slowly from the begining of the sequence to the end. The smudges are undoubtedly the result of contact of a dust-ladened, damp cloth with the reseau plate in John's camera during an attempt, between the EVAs, to the clean enough dust off the camera to make the settings readable. See page 10-60 from the Apollo 16 Technical Crew Debriefing.

Yellow/orange.

EVA-2 images, from Station 9. Readers should note that the smudges visible on frames 18444 to 18470 at the end of the magazine are most likely on the original film. The scans linked below were made by NASA Johnson from the original film in about 2005-6. Identical smudges appear on scans made from prints and negatives which derive from duplicate negatives made long ago from the original film, probably not long after the film arrived in Houston from the Moon. Because the original film is the only common ancestor, the smudges are necessarily on the orginal film. As Charlie mentions shortly after 125:23:26 during the EVA-1 close-out, they took both cameras and all the film magazines up to the cabin.

148:24:47 Lightstruck picture of the LRV handcontroller. John is on the other side of the Rover and is also changing film magazines.

John is putting a film magazine in his camera at Station 9. Note the other film magazines in the cloth-enclosed storage area under John's seat. The magazines are quite large because they each hold about 180 frames of 70-mm film. Under John's camera, we can see his sample bag dispenser and, also, the "Red Apple" he would pull to activate his purge valve in an emergency.
