Summary

Description
العربية: آثار قدم باز ألدرين على سطح القمر عام 1969 في مهمة أبولو 11
Deutsch: Buzz Aldrin fotografierte seinen Fußabdruck auf der Mondoberfläche am 20. Juli 1969 mit einem Carl-Zeiss-Biogon-Objektiv an einer Hasselblad-Kamera. Das Foto entstand zu wissenschaftlichen Zwecken, um die Bodenmechanik der Mondoberfläche zu untersuchen. Es wurde später zum Synonym für die Eroberung des Weltraums durch den Menschen.
