Description: Titled verso This photograph was taken from 30 miles by Lunar Orbiter II. It shows the 1300-foot path left by an 11-foot boulder as it rolled down a shallow crater wall. From its shadow, the boulder appears more rounded than others; this feature may have helped in making it move while its companions remained fixed. 1
