A digitally stitched panoramic view of the Apollo 12 lunar landing site. Astronaut Alan Bean is visible near the Lunar Module. The panorama extends to show the flat lunar terrain and a video camera in the distance. The bright light on the right is the Sun, and the dark area on the far right shows a lunar rock.

Earth quakes in her throes
And we wonder for why!
But the blind planet knows
When her ruler is nigh.

I'm very sad to learn that #AlanBean, the fourth person to walk on the #Moon, has died. He flew to the Moon as the Lunar Module Pilot aboard Apollo 12 in November 1969. He was 86. Farewell, and thanks for the dreams.
