Beschreibung:

Image taken during the Apollo 17 mission to the Moon, in the Taurus-Littrow region. The NASA description reads:

145:49:03 "This frame is part of an excellent pan that Gene took from the SE rim of Shorty Crater. It shows Jack at the Rover and, in addition to the patch of orange soil between the Rover and the boulder beyond, it shows streaks of orange soil on the inner wall of the crater beyond the boulder."

This photo was used in Figure 5-28 of the Apollo 17 Preliminary Science Report (SP-330, 1973), which has the following caption:
The southern rim of Shorty Crater looking west. The sampled orange soil deposit is at the left center of the photograph near the large boulder. Note the heterogeneity of boulder and albedo distribution patterns. The crater is approximately 110 m in diameter.
