As the spaceship swings around the Moon...

Unexpectedly the Earth rises in the Apollo ship's window and the astronauts are amazed at what is coming into view... Astronaut Bill Anders is the first to see the Earth rising...

Anders: "Oh, my God, look at that picture over there," he can be heard saying. "There's the Earth coming up. Wow, is that pretty!"


What happened next will sound familiar to anyone who remembers the days before digital cameras:


Anders (to astronaut Jim Lovell): "You got a color film, Jim? Hand me a roll of color, quick, would you?"

Lovell: "Oh, man, that's great! Where is it?"

Lovell hands him the film just as Anders is heard saying, "I think we missed it."


But within seconds, Lovell sees the shot again in another window of the command module. He asks for the camera from Anders, who seems a bit defensive at having his role as mission photographer usurped.


Anders: "Wait a minute, just let me get the right setting here now, just calm down. Calm down, Lovell!"
