About Apollo 12 and the Ocean of Storms

Apollo 12 launched on November 14, 1969 as the second crewed mission to land on the Moon. Commanded by Charles “Pete” Conrad, with Alan Bean as Lunar Module Pilot and Richard Gordon as Command Module Pilot, the mission targeted a site in Oceanus Procellarum, the “Ocean of Storms.” [oai_citation:4‡Wikimedia Commons](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3ASaturn_Apollo_Program_%289407069%29.jpg)

The Lunar Module Intrepid touched down within walking distance of the unmanned Surveyor 3 probe, demonstrating an unprecedented level of landing precision compared to Apollo 11. Conrad and Bean performed two moonwalks, deployed the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP), visited Surveyor 3, and collected roughly 34 kilograms (about 75 pounds) of lunar samples before returning to orbit.

The image behind this poster—NASA photo ID 9407069—is described as one of 25 views used to create a 360 degree lunar surface scene. It captures the stark beauty of the Apollo 12 landing site: low sun angles, long shadows, and the textured regolith of the Ocean of Storms, preserving what the astronauts saw as they worked around the Lunar Module.

This print is more than a photograph; it is a document of the moment when Apollo moved from “first steps” to precise, science driven exploration.
