Description

John Young's training-used single-sided Apollo 11 "LM-TD+2 Star Chart (A), Launch July 21," measuring 8.25″ in diameter, signed on the reverse in black felt tip, "From My Collection, John W. Young." Planets are indicated with colored dots, and stars and constellations are charted in white: two notable stars are "DNOCES" (actually Iota Ursae Majoris) and "NAVI" (actually Epsilon Cassiopeiae), so named to honor the crew of the ill-fated Apollo 1: "Dnoces" is "Second" spelled backward, commemorating Ed White II; and "Navi" is "Ivan" spelled backward, Gus Grissom's middle name. In fine condition.
