Apollo 10's orbital photographs of the bright crater Recht
- Apollo 10's orbital color-Hasselblad frame AS10-35-5198 of the not-indexed Magazine 35/U shows a northward looking view at the fully sunlit Recht (with bright radial streaks on its inner slopes).
- Almost the same view as the one depicted in the above mentioned color photograph (AS10-35-5198) is the B-and-W frame AS10-33-4917. The LPI's description below this photograph says: Ostwald (which is partially true because Recht's location is very near (or at) the eastern part of Ostwald's rim).
- Another couple of Apollo 10's orbital photographs which show the bright Recht are AS10-30-4347 and 4348.

Apollo 16's orbital photographs of Recht
- Orbital ITEK-panoramic frame AS16-P-4813 shows crater Recht near the frame's right margin.
- Orbital ITEK-frames AS16-P-4986 and AS16-P-4991 show Recht in the right half of both frames.
- Orbital Fairchild Mapping/Metric frame AS16-M-0751 shows Recht immediately to the right of the frame's centre.
- Orbital Fairchild frame AS16-M-1315 shows Recht in the centre of it.
- TEC (Trans Earth Coast) ITEK-panoramic frame AS16-P-5507 shows Recht touching the frame's upper horizontal margin. AS16-P-5510 shows Recht and nearby Ostwald.
