β€œA computerized rendering illustrating the field of view for the Astronauts on the approach to the landing site for the NASA Apollo 17 Lunar mission.”

 

Cutting edge late-1972 visual graphics technology on display! The crater shadows do however look like they're by hand. πŸ˜‰

 

Actually, the depiction, especially that of the elevated regions, is remarkably detailed and accurate when compared to mission photographs.
