AS14-64-9193 (5 Feb. 1971) --- A close-up view of the forward section of the Apollo 14 Lunar Module (LM) ascent stage, looking upward from the LM ladder. This photograph was taken by one of the Apollo 14 astronauts at the close of their first extravehicular activity (EVA). The LM's ingress/egress hatch is just out of view at the bottom, near center. At the top center is the rendezvous radar antenna. An RCS thruster is visible at the far right. One of the two VHF antennas is on the right. The LM's optical alignment telescope is located at the black circle which has a wide, white ring around it. The crescent Earth can be seen in the far distant background.
