This table also does not include any items believed to be used for administrative purposes only (ie owned by NASA, but not intended for use in the space program) The data in this table did not include these labeling errors if they were found to be incorrect. It is important to note that the labeling affixed to some pieces by the person(s) decommissioning the gear, occasionally contained typographical and other errors. Included are only lenses that have been verified to have authentic NASA SNs. While the list currently only details lenses, I may be adding camera bodies and accessories over the next while. It should say something like "NIKKOR 50mm 1:1.8" followed by a serial number, and then "Nikon" further around.This page is a summary of film-era, mainly manual focus, Nikon equipment serial numbers used by NASA as part of the Gemini, Apollo, Skylab, Shuttle and early International Space Station missions. Take off the lens cap, and look at the front of the lens. It looks like it's probably a 50mm f/1.8 AI-S lens, a common and standard Nikon lens at the time. I can't tell which lens is on the camera.
There's nothing super special about the filter, those types (or the A-versions, which had a more subdued effect) were pretty commonly used on film cameras when shooting outdoors.
Basically, it's color-correcting UV filter, meant to slightly "warm up" or prevent a blue color cast when using daylight film on subjects in the shade (thanks to MichaelC for the clarification). The lens has a removable filter mounted on the front, a 52mm (diameter) L1BC Sky filter. =) But also, comparing an FM to an FE (see Nikon FM/FE/FA, the first picture), yours looks like the FE. Firstly, the serial number starts with "FE". It's definitely a Nikon SLR (single-lens reflex) camera, which takes interchangeable lenses.
