This chart has an identification ID of “SKB 32100097-301” which is a flight equipment part number and is printed within the legend block. It is identical to the chart issued to Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins for their mission. An important objective of Apollo 11’s lunar orbit operations was to identify and photograph possible future landing sites for missions. Planning as of 1969 was to have nine more lunar landings through Apollo 20. This chart locates the surface "targets of opportunity" with colored geometric arrows and markings. Shutter speeds, f-stops, and lens size recommended are listed inside the legend block section.
