The Apollo 16 LM "Relative Trajectory Chart",
used aboard the Lunar Module "Orion"!




Lifting off from the Moon's surface to rejoin the orbiting Command Module was tricky business!
As such, the Moonwalkers received a plotting chart, by which they could literally plot their positions after liftoff!

This is the Apollo 16 Relative Trajectory Chart, used by Charles M. Duke, Jr., and still bearing his hand-plots!
Properly flight-certified by Charles M. Duke, Jr., and accompanied by his official certification certificate!



The charts and maps used by the first lunar explorers are among the rarest,
and most historic, artifacts from the entire pantheon of human exploration!
