Just heard of a new release from Alan Bean as a special 40th Anniversary Issue.
Alan Bean says of "The Eagle is Headed Home":

The Lunar Module Eagle has just made the first lunar liftoff. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin are ascending from Tranquility Base to transfer themselves and their treasure of moon rocks to the command module and head for home. On the Apollo 12 mission, I recall looking out of the window during liftoff and seeing a ring of bright orange, silver, and black flashes of light expanding rapidly outward, glints from pieces of metal-foil insulation blasted from the descent stage by the ascent engine.

Apparently "The Eagle is Headed Home" has been released early as there is a problem with the transparency for "Is Anyone Out There" this print will now be released later.

There is a problem with the transparency they intended to use to create Alan Bean's "Is Anyone Out There?". They need to re-photograph the original painting, but there is a small problem... the piece is hanging in The Smithsonian until January. Because of this, they will now be releasing "Is Anyone Out There?" in February/March 2010... and they will be releasing the piece previously scheduled for February/March, "The Eagle is Headed Home", in November/December 2009. There won't be any changes to the format, edition size, price, etc for "Is Anyone Out There?".

I wanted to provide a link for folks who might be interested in viewing "The Eagle is Headed Home". It's a great piece and it sold-out at the publisher level in a little more than 24 hours.

I have purchased many Alan Bean items from Jay at ArtUSA and have this current one 'The Eagle is Headed Home' on order from him, he provides a first class service and would recommend him.
