  • Two of Apollo 8's orbital Hasselblad photographs show Kastner S and the chevron-shaped rim of the dark Kiess north-northeast of it : AS08-12-2176 and AS08-12-2177. Research: Danny Caes.
  • Pan 7, composed of Apollo 8's orbital Hasselblads AS08-12-2164 to 2177, shows Kiess and Kastner S near the pan's extreme left margin. Research: David Woods and Frank O'Brien (Apollo 8 Flight Journal).
