Astronaut Edwin E. Aldrin Jr., Apollo 11 Lunar Module Pilot, is seen in this color reproduction, taken from the third television transmission, from the Apollo 11 spacecraft during its trans-lunar journey toward the moon. Aldrin is inside the Lunar Module (LM). In the background are some of the LM's controls and displays. A LM window is on the right. The LM was still docked with the Command/Service Module (CSM). Apollo 11 was approximately 176,000 nautical miles from Earth, and traveling at a speed of about 3,200 feet per second when this photograph was taken. Also, in the LM with Aldrin was astronaut Neil A. Armstrong, Apollo 11 commander. Astronaut Michael Collins, command module pilot, remained in the Command Module (CM).
Visit, the day after the wonderful launch of Apollo-17 in the afternoon of Pad-39a. The next launch will be the laboratory Skylab-1 with the last Saturn-5 rocket May 14, 1973. Much later, the launch will follow, will be the first launch of Space Shuttle Columbia (STS-1), April 12, 1981.

Common and Kid Cudi both came out to UF this week and had a free concert despite freezing rain, and it was really incredible and fun.
"Apollo 17 Command Module Pilot Ronald E. Evans is photographed conducting his deep-space Extravehicular Activity (EVA) during the mission's transearth coast. During his EVA, Evans retrieved film cassettes from the Lunar Sounder, Mapping Camera, and Panoramic Camera. The total time for the EVA was 1 hour, 7 minutes and 18 seconds, starting at Ground Elapsed Time (GET) of 257:25 (2:28 p.m.) and ending at GET of 258:42 (3:35 p.m.) Sunday, 17 December 1972."
Note that Evans is wearing Gene's LEVA. Possibly his OPS as well?

Overhead view of the Apollo 15 landing site taken during the mission. The ALSJ site has the photo preceding this, so it's nearly identical, stating that a/the brightened area (due to Lunar Module Descent Engine plume impingement(?)/surface activity(?)/both(?)) can be seen. I can't make it out...I see multiple bright(er) 'smudges'. North is to the top.
Great view (out of many) from LROC for comparison:

A close-up view of a commemorative plaque left on the moon at the Hadley-Apennine landing site in memory of 14 NASA astronauts and USSR cosmonauts, now deceased. Their names are inscribed in alphabetical order on the plaque. The plaque was stuck in the lunar soil by astronauts David R. Scott, commander, and James B. Irwin, lunar module pilot, during their Apollo 15 lunar surface extravehicular activity (EVA). The names on the plaque are Charles A. Bassett II, Pavel I. Belyayev, Roger B. Chaffee, Georgi Dobrovolsky, Theodore C. Freeman, Yuri A. Gagarin, Edward G. Givens Jr., Virgil I. Grissom, Vladimir Komarov, Viktor Patsayev, Elliot M. See Jr., Vladislav Volkov, Edward H. White II, and Clifton C. Williams Jr. The tiny, man-like object represents the figure of a fallen astronaut/cosmonaut. While astronauts Scott and Irwin descended in the Lunar Module (LM) "Falcon" to explore the Hadley-Apennine area of the moon, astronaut Alfred M. Worden, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in lunar orbit.

“Good picture of Al [Shepard], who is carrying the core tube back to the MET. He has the upper end of the core tube in his left hand and the bit end resting on the hammer, which is in his right hand. Old Nameless is in the distance beyond Al. On the MET, we can see the 16-mm sequence camera, the trenching tool, weighbags hanging down on either side, and the Gold camera mounted on the front. The blade on the trenching tool is much broader than the ones flown on later missions.”

“The Apollo 11 Lunar Module (LM), in a lunar landing configuration, is photographed in lunar orbit from the Command and Service Modules (CSM). Inside the LM were astronauts Neil A. Armstrong, commander, and Edwin E. Aldrin Jr., lunar module pilot. Astronaut Michael Collins, command module pilot, remained with the CSM in lunar orbit while Armstrong and Aldrin descended in the LM to explore the lunar surface.”

Coincidentally, a nearly identical view to that of the iconic ascent stage rendezvous and docking sequence taken by CMP Mike Collins. This photograph was of course taken during another revolution.

Kennedy Space Center:
Alan Bean is one rung up from the bottom of the ladder, with his right hand on the ladder and his right foot on the rung. His OPS antenna doesn't appear to be up. The Modular Equipment Stowage Assembly (MESA) is at the lower left. Surveyor Crater is visible beyond the ladder.
Above description paraphrased from the ALSJ.
The still operational color television camera is visible, secured in the MESA, directly below the right-hand edge of the U.S. flag, one hoist-length down. At this point, the camera was transmitting some real nice images of Bean descending the ladder.
Lastly:
"Astronaut Alan L. Bean, lunar module pilot for the Apollo 12 mission, is about to step off the ladder of the Lunar Module to join astronaut Charles Conrad Jr., mission commander, in extravehicular activity (EVA). Conrad and Bean descended in the Apollo 12 LM to explore the moon while astronaut Richard F. Gordon Jr., command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules in lunar orbit."
Beautiful, but reversed...why am I not surprised:
