拍品专文

Scott parked the Rover at its final resting place 100 m east of the LM where the worldwide television audience could watch the launch transmitted by the Rover’s TV camera.

A red bible left by Scott is visible against the hand controller of the Rover.
The North Complex is in the background.

“Wanted to leave a Bible on the Moon. Wanted to leave something of everything we had that was meaningful. [....] Leave a trail of who we were and what we were, for whomever someday. And you figure that stuff’s been, you know, a billion years without getting disturbed. This’ll be there for a billion years. Somebody will go back and pick it up. Why not leave them a story?”
David Scott (Chaikin, Voices, p. 192)
