Highly desirable original blueprint by Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corp. for the ascent stage of the Apollo Lunar Module, 16 x 10.5, signed in the upper right corner in blue felt tip, "LM-5, Apollo XI, Buzz Aldrin." Identified in the lower right corner with part number "LDW340-55002 C," the diagram portrays the internal locations of several of the spacecraft's essential elements: "Food," "Pilots Preference Kit," "Crewman's Optical Alignment Sight," "Lunar Overshoes & PGA Gas Connector Covers," "PLSS Condensate Container," "Sample Return Containers," and more. Several items—like "Urine Collection Assy," "Food Waste," and "Defecation Collection Devices"—are marked with asterisks to denote "items to be disposed on lunar surface." In fine condition.
As a whole, this detailed diagram tells the tale of the Apollo 11 mission, listing the things essential to the astronauts' survival on the moon—pertaining to food and waste management—as well as items affiliated with the first moonwalk—lunar overshoes and moon rock sample containers. A great Apollo 11 piece, signed by the mission's Lunar Module Pilot.
