APOLLO 11 MISSION Nasa code AS11-40-5964 Astronaut Buzz Aldrin during EVA on the Moon surface, 1969 Vintage chromogenic print on Kodiak paper 20 x 25 cm Provenance: Italian private collection Apollo 11 was the first manned space mission with a lunar landing that changed our world and culture forever. The pictures Neil Armstrong took on the lunar surface document the 2-hour 31 minute long stay and the first scientific experiments that were conducted during this mission. This photograph shows Buzz Aldrin installing the solar wind sail. This was needed for the Solar Wind Composition Experiment: the only experiment on the mission that was not planned in the U.S., but in Switzerland, at the Physics Institute of the University of Bern. Due to time constraints, the solar wind sail was erected on the Moon before the U.S. flag was raised.
