- Synopsis
- This image is a side view of the Apollo 11 module, which carried and landed American astronauts on the moon in 1969. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The image has a dashed line image border. Also shown is the 'stars and stripes' American flag that was planted in the moon's surface during this mission. The Apollo 11 module is set against the darkness of space. At the top left of the page is a steerable S-band radio antenna and below this a radar antenna. Moving down and right is the crew compartment of the module with a fine texture. On the right hand side of this are: at the top a VHF antenna and down, one of the four reaction control thrusters, used for fine control of movement during landing. Down from the crew compartment is the rocket engine with a horizontal striped texture. To either side of this can be seen two of the module's four legs with their shock absorbing systems. On the leg to the left is a ladder shown from the side, and just above this an entry platform and hatch. On the right of the page is an American flag with some of its stars and stripes depicted. The surface of the moon is shown across the bottom of the page.
