Description

Highly desirable original NASA X-ray of Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong’s EVA lunar spacesuit gloves, 14 x 17, dated July 7, 1969, marked "ARMSTRONG 062 WL," showing radiographic images of both the left and right gloves. The X-ray was taken at NASA's Kennedy Space Center as a last-minute check to discern the presence of any foreign objects capable of compromising the integrity of Armstrong’s pressure suit, such as needle tips broken off during the suit fabrication and stitching process. In fine condition.
