Behold the captivating vista of the Moon, a sight captured from the Command and Service Module (CSM) during the Apollo 11 Mission. This remarkable image unveils the lunar landscape south of Crater 225, officially named Coriolis in honor of the renowned French mathematician and engineer, Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis.
Coriolis crater, situated in this stunning lunar view, showcases the mesmerizing features and geological wonders found on the Moon's surface. With its designated name paying tribute to a notable figure in the field of mathematics and engineering, the crater holds a place of significance in our exploration and understanding of the Moon.

Why this print is different
From Apollo VII-XVII, the bestselling Apollo photo book reviewed by CNN, TIME, BBC Sky at Night Magazine, The Planetary Society and many more. These are the best Apollo prints you can buy, and here is why. This is not a reproduction of a reproduction. The image was restored by the authors of the book from the archival scan of the original 70 mm film frame, with dust and scratches removed and the color and exposure corrected against the film. Nothing is added or invented. Many Apollo prints sold online are made from small web files; this one comes from the film. It is giclée printed on thick, sustainably sourced fine art paper with water based inks, made to order in our studio, checked by hand, and framed by hand with a conservation grade mount.
