Title: Astronaut Alfred Worden floats in space outside spacecraft during EVA
Description:
Astronaut Alfred M. Worden, command module pilot of the Apollo 15 mission,
floats in space outside of the spacecraft during his transearth
extravehicular activity (EVA). This picture was taken from a frame of
motion picture film exposed by the 16mm Maurer camera mounted on the hatch
of the Command Module. During his EVA Worden made on inspection of the
Service Module's Scientific Instrument Module (SIM) bay and retrieved the
film cassettes from the Panoramic Camera and Mapping Camera. The EVA
occurred when the spacecraft was homeward bound approximately 171,000
nautical miles from Earth.
