Astronaut Worden in EVA during Apollo 15: historic scientific exploration and recovery
NASA. Astronaut Alfred M. Worden, command module pilot on the Apollo 15 lunar landing mission, floats in space outside the spacecraft during his trans-Earth extravehicular activity (EVA). This photograph was taken from a frame of motion picture film exposed by the 16mm Maurer camera mounted in the Command Module (CM) hatch. During his EVA, Worden inspected the Science Instrument Module (SIM) bay of the Service Module (SM) and retrieved film cassettes from the panoramic camera and the mapping camera. The SIM bay contains eight orbital science experiments. The EVA took place while the spacecraft was en route to its point of return, some 171,000 nautical miles from Earth. August 5, 1971.
