- Sunrise at Cajal and environs (AS8-13-2336), photographed during the mission of Apollo 8. Looking north toward Dorsa Barlow and Vitruvius (the large crater at the upper left part of the frame). The illuminated mountain in the foreground (leftward of Cajal) is the so-called Mitika Peak (thus named on Rand McNally's moonmap).
- AS8-13-2347shows the same region as mentioned above. In this photograph, the sun was several degrees above the eastern horizon, and every surface detail shows up like a lunar bass-relief map. A magnificent photograph!
- Apollo 17's orbital panoramic ITEK-camera frames AS17-P-3011, 3013, 3016, and 3018 show shadowless views of Cajal's inner slopes and floor.
- Research: Danny Caes
- HiRes scan of Apollo 8 photograph: David Woods and Frank O'Brien (Apollo 8 Flight Journal).
