Russell Schweickart took this wonderful picture early in the EVA after he got the Hasselblad from McDivitt inside the Spider. Schweickart was spacewalking outside the LM Spider docked to the Command Module Gumdrop, with his feet in Golden Slippers on the LM’s porch. The Sun was just rising over the Earth with the terminator (boundary between day and night on the Earth) visible behind the open hatch of Gumdrop.
From the mission transcript during the EVA:
073:08:18 Schweickart (PLSS): Boy, oh boy; what a view! 073:08:20 Scott (Gumdrop): Isn’t that spectacular? 073:08:21 Schweickart (PLSS): It really is. There’s the Moon right over there. 073:08:29 McDivitt (Spider): Okay, Rusty. The Hasselblad is going to be useless from in here except to take a picture of Dave. 073:08:38 McDivitt (Spider): Okay. 073:08:42 Schweickart (PLSS): Did you reel out the ... 073:08:45 Schweickart (PLSS): Why don’t you just throw it (the Hasselblad) out ... 073:08:48 McDivitt (Spider): Okay. Take it easy for a while. 073:08:50 Schweickart (PLSS):There’s a nice reflection off the ... 073:09:03 Schweickart (PLSS): I’m going to get that - We’ll never get it opened again. 073:09:10 Schweickart (PLSS): Dave, how do you read? 073:09:12 Scott (Gumdrop): Five-square. How me? 073:09:13 Schweickart (PLSS): Read you Just fine.
