Note du spécialiste
Schweickart is photographed by Scott (ii) from the open hatch of the command module "Gumdrop" docked with the lunar module "Spider" (i). Schweickart is wearing an Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) and standing in “golden slippers” on the lunar module porch. He holds, in his right hand, a thermal sample which he is retrieving from the lunar module exterior. Extravehicular transfer handrails on the lunar module are in the foreground. The lunar module ladder and footpad is visible at the bottom of picture.
From the mission transcript during the EVA:
073:38:40 McDivitt (Spider): Why don’t you come over and get the thermal sample and get it in so we won’t have to mess around with it.
073:38:44 Schweickart (PLSS): That’s a good idea; coming up. [...]
073:39:25 Schweickart (PLSS): Okay, hook it on down there and lock it. Dave, have you taken any pictures yet?
