Viena no NASA dienas bildēm :) NASA paskaidrojums:
Shadow on the MoonSurveyor 1, the first of the Surveyor
missions to make a successful soft landing, proved the validity of the
spacecraft's design and landing technique. In addition to transmitting
more than 11,000 pictures, Surveyor sent information on the bearing
strength of the lunar soil, the radar reflectivity and temperature.
This image of Surveyor 1's shadow shows it against the lunar surface in
the late lunar afternoon, with the horizon at the upper right. Surveyor
1 was launched on May 30, 1966, and landed on June 2, 1966.
