This photograph shows the first reunion of man and a robot spacecraft on the surface of another world.

After Conrad’s suggestion to take some “tourist” photos of each other standing in front of Surveyor III, Alan Bean captured Pete Conrad “jiggling” the spacecraft to see if it was firmly planted. The LM “Intrepid” with the S-band antenna and the American flag is in the background.

134:15:59 Bean: You don’t get a chance like this every day. Shoot up the extras; we’ve got lots of film.
134:16:03 Conrad: Yep. Here you go.
134:16:06 Bean: Okay. (Pause)
134:16:10 Conrad: Why don’t you get yourself in the photo, too?
134:16:14 Bean: Okay. Just a second. (Pause) Back up just a little, Pete. Try for 15 feet. (Pause) Okay. That ought to be good. How’s that look to you?
134:16:39 Conrad: Good. Come in just a foot.
134:16:43 Bean: (Chuckling) You got a calibrated eye, huh? (Pause)
134:16:48 Conrad: Trouble with that camera is, if it’s not right on the money, it’s out of focus.
134:16:52 Bean: Okay.
134:16:54 Conrad: Okay, Houston. I’m jiggling it. The Surveyor is firmly planted here; that’s no problem.

After he first photographed Conrad next to Surveyor III, Bean lent the camera to Conrad, who took this “tourist” picture of Bean before returning the camera to him.

134:17:10 Bean: Hey, Pete, you want to do something for me first?
134:17:11 Conrad: Yes, sir. Okay. I sure will. (Long Pause)
134:17:30 Conrad: I’ll be darned. (Pause) All soft dirt. (Pause) Okay, (give me) a big smile.
134:17:42 Bean: Okay.
134:17:44 Conrad: Okay. (Garbled; Pause) Hang that (70 mm camera) back on the front (of Bean’s Remote Control Unit).
