SPACE EXPORAT ON

COMMANDER’S INTRODUCTION CAS SA N D R A H AT TO N

We are very excited to be holding Sotheby’s third annual Space Exploration th sale, this year taking place on July 20 , th to commemorate the 50 anniversary o mankind’s first steps on the moon taken by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin during Apollo 11. This first lunar landing is an event that nearly every person alive at the time recalls with great clarity, and we are thrilled to be ofering as our top lot the earliest, sharpest, and most accurate surviving video images o this momentous moment: original first-generation NASA videotape recordings o the Apollo 11 lunar EVA —unrestored, unenhanced, and un- remastered (lot 104). It is a sad reality that most events that unite mankind through our individual, but shared, human memories are tragedies. The successul lunar landing o Apollo 11 is perhaps the sole event that people around the globe recall with excitement and positivity—the cosmonauts in Star City were no less thrilled than the astronauts and engineers in Houston. And what we universally recall about that event is documented on these tapes—a glorious moment that united the people o earth in peace, as witnesses to mankind’s greatest achievement. We are very proud to be able to say that we are working directly with several o the astronauts who risked their lives in the pursuit o President John F. Kennedy’s ambitious and dramatic goal o “Landing a Man on the Moon and returning him saely to Earth”, including none other than Apollo 11 Lunar Module Pilot Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 9 Lunar Module Pilot Rusty Schweickart, Apollo 13 Mission Commander Jim Lovell, the Estate o Apollo 16 Mission Commander John Young, as well as rom the Estate o the man who documented it all so wonderully or us, NASA Senior Photographer Bill “Two More” Taub. Please see pages 10-11 or their biographical inormation, and a listing o their lots. Four o the items consigned directly by Aldrin come rom the FLOWNApollo

11 Flight PlanandData File,the manuals used by the crew to guide them on their great adventure. These include 3 o the most important documents o the entire mission beginning with the complete FLOWN 4-page “Mission Rules Summary” (lot 108). Truly one o the most crucial and potentially lie-saving documents on the entire spacecrat, it detailed the steps to be ollowed in the event o spacecrat malunction. This is ollowed by the very first page o the FLOWNFlight Plan(lot 109);beginning with the word “LIFTOFF”, it details the crucial activities to be perormed by the crew rom the launch through the first two hours o the mission. Next is the final page o the FLOWNFlight Plan(lot 110), which beings with the words “SPLASHDOWN” – this page marks the moment when the Crew o Apollo 11 made it home alive. Finally, the “Photographic Timeline” (lot 111) rom the FLOWNData File,beingdetailed instructions on camera configurations and film magazines to be used on the Mission. In an amazing alignment o the stars, the sale eatures three important artiacts that correspond directly with three o the above-mentioned FLOWN documents rom Aldrin; these artiacts, when paired with the corresponding FLOWN documents, provide us with a much deeper understanding o the objects and the mission itsel. These artiacts are lots 107 (paired with lot 111 ”Photographic Timeline”), an incredible assemblage o lunar surace artiacts that include the label rom Film “Mag S”, used to take the most important lunar surace EVA pictures (and accidentally dropped onto the lunar surace by Armstrong), and what is the first document to be ully handwritten on the lunar surace, written by Buzz Aldrin to explain the contents o the various film magazines used on the mission, including “Mag S”. The second is lot 105 (paired with lot 109, the “Litof” page), twenty o the Control Panels rom Firing Room 1 and Kennedy Space Center, which were used to launch Apollos 11, 8, 17 and

several others. The third is lot 106 (paired with lot 110), theBoost CoverReleaselabel salvaged rom the Apollo 11 Command Module “Columbia” ater Splashdown in the Pacific. The sale is ull o other wonderul items including the finest single owner collection o Flown Robbins Medallions ever assembled (lots 73, 75, 92, 98, 119, 153, 168, 170-171, 180-181, 186, 202-203, 207, and 213-219), many mission flown artiacts, and items such as early contractors and engineering models, spacesuits and glover, photography, original artwork and more, rom the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs, plus Skylab, ASTP, and the Shuttle era, as well as a handul o items relating to the Russian Space Program, most notably, a very complete Sokol- KR spacesuit (lot 5). Finally, we cannot speak about the triumphs o the missions without acknowledging the lives that were lost in pursuit o the Moon- lot 72 is an important reminder o this, being the only portion o Roger Chafee’s spacesuit to not be destroyed in the Apollo 1 tragedy. AD ASTRA PER ASPERA. In 2012, President Obama signed into law an act [H.R. 4158] that grants US astronauts who participated in the Mercury, Gemini, or Apollo programs through the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project “ull ownership o and clear title to” artiacts that they received during participation in the space missions. It urther “prohibits the ederal government rom having any claim or right to ownership, control, or use o (1) any artiact in the possession o such an astronaut; or (2) any such artiact that was subsequently transerred, sold, or assigned to a third party by such an astronaut.” Thanks to this legislation, collectors are able to own important historic artiacts such as these, and it is our privilege to be able to ofer them or sale.
