Apollo 8 Magazine 17-C
An additional exploration and investigation of a partially indexed Magazine of orbital photographs on Black and White film
Research: Danny Caes
Online sources of Apollo 8's Magazine 17-C:
Apollo Image Atlas (Lunar and Planetary Institute) (Low-Resolution scans)
Apollo 8 Flight Journal (David Woods and Frank O'Brien) (Medium- and High-Resolution scans)
Warning:
This overview is a list of explored and investigated Hasselblad frames. Several frames are not yet included in this list because they show no official I.A.U.-named (or unofficial L.T.O.-named) surface formations. The named surface formations, mentioned in the list below, were detected on the equatorial photographic LAC-charts of the Clementine Atlas of the Moon, which is (as I see it) the most suitable atlas to explore many of the Apollo-project's equatorial lunar photographs.

2659: Part of Korolev's eastern rim (sunset terminator)
2660 and 2661: Korolev E and Korolev F
2663: Korolev B and Korolev L
2664 and 2665: Korolev L and Korolev T, and also the oblong Keyhole
2666: Part of the oblong Keyhole (near the frame's lower right corner)
2670 and 2671: Part of Korolev's western rim
2672 and 2673: Possible catena near Crookes X
2674: Crookes X
2675 to 2677: Curious "pear"-shaped crater southeast of Icarus J (an oblique impact?) See: AS8-17-2676.
- A wonderful close-up of this "pear"-shaped crater is Apollo 8's AS8-14-2416 (on color film).
2676 to 2678: Icarus J (touching the upper margin of frame AS8-17-2677, with "the pear" near the right margin).
2678: Amici (at frame's lower left corner)
2680 and 2681: Amici T (which was also photographed on color film, as two wonderful close-ups, see: AS8-14-2420 and 2421).
2697 to 2702: Heaviside
2703 to 2705: Planté, see AS8-17-2704
- A close up of the small crater on Planté's northern rim, as seen in AS8-14-2431, was included as a black-and-white print on pages 618-619 of the article A MOST FANTASTIC VOYAGE by Lt. Gen. Sam C. Phillips (The Story of Apollo 8's Rendez-Vous with the Moon; National Geographic, May 1969).
2703 to 2707: Keeler
2708 to 2710: Keeler S, see AS8-17-2709
2712 and 2713: Beijerinck C Note: this crater is absent on LAC 85 (page 170) in the Clementine Atlas (shows a "black square").
2719 to 2722: Marconi, see AS8-17-2721 (southern part of Marconi at frame's upper margin).
2728 to 2730: Chauvenet
2730 and 2731: Ten Bruggencate (which is visible near the upper margins of both frames).
2731 to 2733: Lane, see AS8-17-2732 (the southern part of Lane is visible at the frame's upper margin).
2735 to 2737: Perepelkin, Shirakatsi, Dobrovolskiy
2737 to 2739: D'Arsonval, see AS8-17-2739 (D'Arsonval is the small crater at the northern part of Danjon's rim, which is the larger crater in this frame).
2738 to 2740: Danjon, see AS8-17-2739 (read description at D'Arsonval, above).
2739 to 2745: Langemak (and start of west-looking frames which also show the curved horizon, ends at frame 2760).
2744: Langemak and Sherrington (Sherrington is the small bowl-shaped crater at the frame's centre, while Langemak's dark lacus-like floor is visible near the frame's upper right corner)
2748 to 2751: Meitner
2751 to 2754: Pasteur D
2755: Pasteur itself (almost unrecognizable because of the high sun and absence of shadows, only the many satellite craters in and around Pasteur are detectable via photographic LAC-chart 82 (page 164) in the Clementine Atlas of the Moon)
2758: Satellite craters Pasteur A, B, Y, Z, U, and the (invisible) northwestern part of Pasteur's rim
2764: Pasteur V (near the frame's right margin)(north is now aimed toward the left margin)
2770: Ludwig (centre of frame)
2771 and 2772: Part of Hansky
2772 to 2778: Hirayama K (the LTO's "Balzac")
2775 to 2779: Hirayama M (the LTO's "Austen")
2777 to 2780: Brunner
2781 and 2782: Houtermans
2783 and 2784: Kreiken
2784: The southern part of Kiess (dark floor, near the frame's lower margin)(south is now up)
2784 and 2785: Kastner S (the LTO's "Cellini")
2785 and 2786: Kastner R (the LTO's "Chekov")
2786 to 2788: Kastner itself (almost unrecognizable because of the high sun and absence of shadows)
2792: Region north of Von Behring (of which only the northern part of its rim is visible, near the frame's upper margin)
2795: Region between Langrenus and Maclaurin
Note: from frame 2796 on (toward the end of the magazine, at frame 2826) there's a series of west-looking photographs which show Mare Fecunditatis and the curved horizon.
2801: Webb (the largest crater in this field of view)
2827: which is the last frame of this magazine, shows the same area as in Frame 2668.
The full content of this list should be online within a couple of days or weeks.
