Nasa. Apollo 12 mission. During his exploration of the Ocean of Storms, astronaut Alan Bean suddenly appeared clothed in a mysterious halo, which some claimed was the revelation of the "human aura" on lunar soil. In reality, scientists concluded that it was an optical effect due to the presence of dust on the lens of the Hasselblad camera belonging to Pete Conrad, the crewmate of the second human expedition to the Moon. November 1969. Vintage chromogenic print. 20.3 x 25.7cm with margins.
