Tracks leading to the lunar TV camera are visible in the foreground. Enabling live broadcast from the Moon, the camera, like many Apollo artefacts, remains on the surface. Live television coverage was unfortunately lost early in the mission when Bean accidentally pointed the TV camera at the sun during transfer from the LM. Thus the Hasselblad photographs taken by the crew are the only visual records of their lunar surface activities. The second image is one of Bean's close-up photographs of Intrepid.

They look great on a map, but they don't look worth a damn when you're running along next to them. You can't judge distance, and you can't tell how far you've run, because you've never run on the moon. So not only can't you guess the distance, if you've been running for fifteen seconds, you don't know if you've covered fifty yards or fifty feet.'

Apollo 13 holds the distinction of the farthest distance in space ever travelled by a manned crew. Following the free-return trajectory, the altitude of Apollo 13 over the lunar farside was approximately 100 km (54 nautical miles) - greater than the orbital altitude on the remaining Apollo lunar missions. It holds the absolute altitude record for a manned spacecraft, reaching a distance of 400,171 km (216,075 nautical miles) from Earth on 7:21 pm EST, April 14, 1970.

Edgar MitchellThe Fra Mauro landing site seen from the flank of Cone Crater, station C1, EVA 231 January - 9 February 1971Vintage gelatin silver print on fibre-based paper, 25.4 x 20.3 cm (10 x 8 in), BLACK NUMBERED AS14-68-9448 in top margin (NASA Manned Spacecraft Center)Footnotes:The LM is visible in the plain on the right behind the rock, 1.25 km away. During the whole EVA the crew had trouble judging distance because there were no familiar objects to provide scale, no colour differences to break up the lunar scene, and no haze to help differentiate smaller, relatively nearby craters from larger ones in the distance. To their untrained earthly eyes, only the LM provided scale.
Edgar MitchellA group of three views of station G and HThe first two photographs were taken at station G showing a core tube and the gnomon and the last one at station H showing a boulder field.31 January - 9 February 1971Set of one vintage gelatin silver print on fibre-based paper, 25.4 x 20.3cm (10 x 8 in), BLACK NUMBERED NASA AS14-68-9457, with "STA G CT/3T/2T/1" hand written in black ink in right margin, (NASA Manned Spacecraft Center); and two vintage gelatin silver prints on fibre-based paper, each 25.4 x 20.3cm (10 x 8 in), NASA photo numbers AS14-68-9459 and AS14-68-9468 printed in margin (NASA / USGS)Footnotes:The crew fell behind schedule during the traverse due to the difficulty in walking over the rugged terrain, yet the trip back to the LM was quick and uneventful. Shepard and Mitchell showed that, in the event of a Rover breakdown during future missions, a crew could walk back to the LM from a considerable distance.

That all came after you got back in the Command Module, took off the suit and relaxed for a minute. And then you realized you were just dead tired. And we hurried. Even Houston hurried us, because they wanted to get us out of orbit on the next pass, because they knew we were all dog tired.' Ed Mitchell

The boulder that marked this stop (first photograph) had a greenish tinge, later found to come from magnesium oxide. Mount Hadley and the Swann range are in the background.At station 7 near Spur Crater, the crew made a longer stop (second photograph), adjusting the Rover antenna so that Mission Control could survey their activities. They collected a sample that later proved to be more than four billion years old, older than any rocks ever found on Earth. It was dubbed the "Genesis Rock."
