Description
The clip starts with a shot of the lower instrument bay panel. A 16mm camera floats in from below followed quickly by Gene Cernan and Jack Schmitt. The pair bob up and down before Jack floats out of the shot. Gene continues to perform - pointing at different parts of the instruments behind him. Jack, sporting a beard appears again before taking the camera and turning it on Ron Evans at the other side of the Command Module. Ron has his own camera and is looking out of a window. Jack floats a torch towards him. It spins slowly in front of the camera - shining its beam around the capsule like a light house. Ron floats back towards the camera and uses the torch to illuminate his mission patch - showing it off along with his stars and stripes flag on his shoulder.
