S69-34077 (19 May 1969) --- Astronaut Thomas P. Stafford (left) gives a graphic example of conditions in a weightless environment by literally holding astronaut John W. Young up by the head in this color reproduction taken from the fourth telecast made by the color television camera aboard the Apollo 10 spacecraft. When this picture was made the Apollo 10 spacecraft was about halfway to the moon, or approximately 112,000 nautical miles from Earth. Stafford is the Apollo 10 commander and Young is the command module pilot. Also, aboard Apollo 10 was astronaut Eugene A. Cernan, lunar module pilot.
