Summary

The original database describes this as:

Description: Atlantic Ocean, Antarctica, looking west, as photographed from the earth-orbital Apollo 4 (Spacecraft 017/Saturn 501) unmanned space mission. The camera system was activated by a gravity switch set for G=3. It is possible that it was activated by the initial vibration at lift-off. Therefore times and altitudes are approximate but within one minute of true. Photo was taken during the third revolution. Film type was SO-368 Ektachrome,70mm color,76mm lens. G.E.T time was 6:41, Altitude was 8592 nautical miles (15,913 kilometers). .
