Video from the channel Moonpans about Apollo 16, linked on its Above Ten Thousand entry. Duration: 2:16. Language: English. Video type: Archive footage.

A montage of photographs taken during Apollo 16, accompanied by the original audio of communications between the astronauts on the surface and mission control.

The audio discusses some lineations visible on a mountainside, all at the same angle, and Houston requests photographs of the cosmic ray experiment with specific camera settings. One of the astronauts describes a white rock the size of a hand, with a layer of black glass and small impact craters.

The footage comes from the April 1972 mission; the video does not indicate which moment each image corresponds to.
