The “LM-L0 Star Chart (A)” was flown on the Apollo 11 mission, depicting the night sky as projected for the time the Apollo 11 lunar module Eagle was scheduled to lift off the lunar surface to rendezvous with the command module Columbia orbiting above. It was designed to be used by the astronauts in conjunction with the Alignment Optical Telescope to program the spacecraft's precise attitude and position at takeoff.
Stowed in the lunar module and then transferred to the command module after rendezvous in lunar orbit, it was transferred to the Smithsonian in 1970.
