Description:
The ascent stage of the Apollo 10 Lunar Module (LM) is photographed from
the Command Module prior to docking in lunar orbit. The LM is approaching
the Command and Service Modules from below. The LM descent stage had
already been jettisoned. The lunar surface in the background is near, but
beyond the eastern limb of the moon as viewed from earth (about 120
degrees east longitude). The red/blue diagonal line is the spacecraft
