Description
Dick Gordon smiles towards Pete Conrad (behind the camera and out of vision), whilst to the left Alan Bean soaps up his chin and cheeks for a wet shave. At one point Dick points at Al's side burns and seems to be telling him that he missed a bit. Alan carries on shaving as Dick Gordon takes a pen from his tunic top pocket with his right hand and swaps it to his left hand to write something on his check list. To the left of the frame the green digital display of the navigation and guidance computer can be seen.

Historic Context of Clip
Background to Apollo 12:
Apollo 12 was the sixth manned mission in the Apollo program and the second to land on the Moon. Shortly after lift-off from Kennedy Space Center, the Saturn V rocket body was hit by a bolt of upper-atmosphere lightning. The CM's instruments momentarily went off-line and Mission Control lost the telemetry feeds from the spacecraft for several seconds. The mission eventually landed on an area of the Ocean of Storms that had been visited earlier by several unmanned missions (Luna 5, Surveyor 3, and Ranger 7). Conrad and Bean removed pieces of the Surveyor 3, to be taken back to Earth for analysis, and took two Moon-walks lasting just under four hours each. The mission returned 34.35kg of rock samples.
