Title: View of approach to Apollo Landing Site 2 in southwestern Sea of Tranquility
Description:
The approach to Apollo Landing Site 2 in southwestern Sea of Tranquility is 
seen in this photograph taken from the Apollo 11 Lunar Module (LM) in lunar 
orbit. When this picture was made, the LM was still docked to the Command
and  Service Modules. Site 2 is located just right of center at the edge of 
darkness. The crater Maskelyne is the large one at the lower right. Hypatia 
Rille (U.S.1) is at upper left, with the crater Moltke just to the right 
(north) of it. Sidewinder Rille and Diamondback Rille extend from left to 
right across the center of the picture. This view looks generally west.
