[en] A far-ultraviolet electrographic Schmidt camera was operated on the lunar surface during the Apollo 16 mission 1972 April 21--23. Among the results obtained were imaginery, in the 1050-1600 and 1250-1600 A wavelength ranges, of a 20degree diameter field in Cygnus containing the Cygnus Loop nebula, the North America nebula (NGC 7000), and the H ii region of the O8 star 68 Cygni. The maximum intensity in the Cygnus Loop was 100 R in the 1250-1600 A range, and 130 R in the 1050-1600 A range. The maximum brightnesses in the 1250-1600 A range of the 68 Cyg H ii region and of NGC 7000 were about 60 and more than 80 R, respectively, but require relatively large corrections for interstellar extinction
