A small treat for the weekend.

In the late evening of 24 April 1972, Apollo 16 left lunar orbit carrying John Young, Thomas Mattingley II, & Charlie Duke back to Earth.

The Apollo Metric (Mapping) Camera took a sequence of still images looking back at the Moon, initially the lunar farside & then the nearside as it rotated into view.

Here's a 10 fps movie sequence showing 90 of those images without any processing or alignment.
