...early morning sunlight from the desolate, rock-strewn surface. The black-and-white monotony is broken only by the color brought to the moon by man-the golden insulating foil on Intrepid, (continued on page 41) the red and blue of the American flag, the golden reflection from the umbrella antenna-and the blues of the earth in the sky above...

In the background, protruding above the crater's edge, only 600 ft. away, Intrepid and the nearby umbrella antenna gleam in the sunlight. To the dismay of scientists-who wanted to study the discoloration of Surveyor's white paint-all of the Surveyor pictures are in black and white; while photographing the little craft, the astronauts forgot to exchange their black-and-white film for color...
