A group of 8 mammoth vintage gelatin silver print photographs of Lunar Orbiter V Photographs of the Crater Copernicus, [Hampton, NASA, Langley Research Centre, 1967], each 510 x 430 mm (20 x 17 ins) These are some of the first photographs taken from lunar orbit. The Lunar Orbiter programme was a series of five unmanned lunar orbiter missions launched by the United States from 1966 through 1967, intended to help select Apollo landing sites by mapping the Moon's surface. The spacecraft carried 70mm photographic film which was developed automatically in lunar orbit aboard the spacecraft. The developed film was then scanned with a light beam and this modulated the signal which was sent back to Earth. Each image was then archived on analog data tape and printed out as photographs for use by the Lunar Orbiter analysis team. The crater Copernicus, named after the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, is 93 kilometres in diameter, and one of the most prominent features on the Moon's near side. (8)
