Readying for final descent, the lunar module Intrepid floats 69 miles above the giant crater Ptoleamaeus in this westward-looking view, after having separated from the command module Yankee Clipper. The circular crater in the middle distance on the right is Herschel. Touchdown for Intrepid will be on the Ocean of Storms.
