- Oblique southward looking close-ups of Bellot were made during the missions of Apollo 8 and Apollo 16.
- Apollo 8's orbital Hasselblad AS8-13-2220 shows the distinct crater Bellot near the frame's right margin. AS8-13-2221 shows Bellot above and to the right of the frame's centre. AS8-13-2222 shows Bellot near the frame's upper margin.
- Apollo 16's orbital ITEK-panoramic frames AS16-P-4464 and AS16-P-4469 show Bellot and its southern high-albedo inner slopes near the left margins of both frames.
- Apollo 16's orbital Hasselblad frame AS16-118-19009 shows Bellot's southern high-albedo inner slopes near the frame's upper left corner (note also the concentric crater Crozier H !).
