APOLLO 11 LM LUNAR SURFACE CHECKLIST

A CHECKLIST USED BY BUZZ AND NEIL IMMEDIATELY AFTER LANDING ON THE SURFACE OF THE MOON


This Apollo 11 LM Lunar Surface Checklist is a single sheet approximately 5.5x8 inches, being SUR-7 and SUR-8 from the initial section of the checklist. Immediately after the successful landing these pages were used to confirm the location of Eagle. This was particularly important because at such an early stage after the landing there was still the very real possibility of having to make an emergency lift-off and attempt to rendevous back with Mike Collins in Columbia.

This checklist was an integral part of mans first exploration of the surface of the moon but what makes it even more special is the fact that it was actually used by Buzz and Neil whilst inside the lunar module and played a vital role in the successful completion of such an historic mission.
