Title: View of Hadley Delta from top hatch of Apollo 15 Lunar Module after landing
Description:
A view of Hadley Delta, looking southeasterly, as photographed from the top
hatch of the Apollo 15 Lunar Module by Astronaut David R. Scott during his
stand-up extravehicular activity just after the Lunar Module "Falcon"
touched down at the Hadly Apennine landing site. The prominent feature on
the horizon in the center of the picture was called Silver Spur by the
Apollo 15 crewmen. Hadley Delta mountain rises approximately 4,000 meters
