"We set out to explore the moon and instead discovered the Earth": Rare 'Earthrise' Photograph signed by Apollo 8 commander Frank Borman
Large format satin-finish color photograph of the iconic 'Earthrise' image taken by Bill Anders during the Apollo 8 mission, signed by mission commander Frank Borman, "Frank Borman, Apollo 8 CDR." With fellow Apollo 8 astronauts James Lovell and William Anders, Frank Borman was one of the first humans to witness an Earthrise. Apollo 8 launched on December 21, 1968, and was the second crewed spaceflight mission flown in the United States Apollo space program after Apollo 7, which stayed in Earth orbit. Apollo 8 was the third flight and the first crewed launch of the Saturn V rocket, and was the first human spaceflight from the Kennedy Space Center, located adjacent to Cape Kennedy Air Force Station in Florida. Borman served as Commander of Apollo 8 and was awarded the Congressional Space Medal of Honor following the mission. In fine condition. The photograph measures 20 inches by 16 inches.
