PIX5940227 Apollo 16: the landing site - Panorama - Apollo 16 Landing Site panorama with John W. Young - The landing site with the Lem Orion and the American flag. Astronaut John Young near the lunar jeep on April 21, 1972. Panorama view of Apollo 16 commander Astronaut John W. Young, working at the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) just prior to deployment of the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP) during the first moonwalk of the mission on April 21, 1972. The panoramic images received minimal retouching by NASA imagery specialists, including the removal of lens flares that were problematic in stitching together the individual frames and blacking out the sky to the lunar horizon. These adjustments were made based on observations of the Moon walkers who reported that there are no stars visible in the sky due to the bright lunar surface reflection of the Sun.

PIX4597655 Apollo 16: John Young on the Moon - Panorama - Apollo 16: John Young with the Lunar Rover Vehicle - Panorama of images taken on April 23, 1972 during the third and last extravehicular exit of the astronauts of the Apollo 16 mission. Astronaut John Young aligns the high gain antenna of the lunar jeep (LRV). Panorama of images taken during EVA - 3. John Young is aligning the high - gain antenna on the lunar rover vehicle (LRV). April 23 1972

PIX4597461 Apollo 16: J. Young on the Moon - John Young at the ALSEP site during first Apollo 16 EVA - John Young on the site of the scientific station ALSEP. 21/04/1972. Astronaut John W. Young, commander of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission, stands at the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP) deployment site during the first Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA - 1) at the Descartes landing site. The components of the ALSEP are in the background. The lunar surface drill is just behind and to the right of astronaut Young. The dragon's rack and bore stems are to the left. The three - sensor Lunar Surface Magnetometer is beyond the rack. The dark object in the right background is the Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (RTG). Between the RTG and the drill is the Heat Flow Experiment. A part of the Central Station is at the right center edge of the picture. This photograph was taken by astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., lunar module pilot. Apr 21 1972

PIX4597490 Apollo 16: C. Duke on the Moon - Apollo 16: Charles Duke near Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) - Charles Duke near the lunar jeep. 22/04/1972. Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., lunar module pilot of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission, stands near the Lunar Roving Vehicle at Station no. 4, near Stone Mountain, during the second Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA - 2) at the Descartes landing site. Light rays from South Ray crater can be seen at upper left. The gnomon, which is used as a photographic reference to establish local vertical Sun angle, scale, and lunar color, is deployed in the center foreground. Note angularity of rocks in the area

PIX4597574 Apollo 16: C. Duke on the Moon - Apollo 16: Charles Duke salutes the US flag - Charles Duke salutes the American flag. 21/04/1972. Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., Apollo 16 lunar module pilot, salutes the United States flag during the mission's first extravehicular activity (EVA), on April 21, 1972. Stone Mountain reaches five - sixths across the photo in background. The Lunar Module (LM) and Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) are in the background. While John W. Young, commander and Duke descended in the LM to explore the Descartes region of the moon, Thomas K. Mattingly II, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in lunar orbit

PIX4596172 Apollo 11: N.Armstrong and E.Aldrin deploy the flag - Apollo 11: the deployment of the US flag - Deploiement of the United States flag by astronauts Neil Armstrong (left) and Edwin Aldrin. Image obtained by the camera mounted on the LEM. The deployment of the flag of the United States on the surface of the Moon is captured on film during the first Apollo 11 lunar landing mission. Here, astronaut Neil A. Armstrong, commander, stands on the left at the flagship's staff. Astronaut Edwin E. Aldrin, Jr., lunar module pilot, is also pictured. The picture was taken from film exposed by the 16 mm Data Acquisition Camera (DAC) which was mounted in the Lunar Module (LM)

PIX4597441 Apollo 16: J. Young's jump on the Moon - Apollo 16: John Young jumps off the ground - John Young greets the American flag by jumping. 20/04/1972. John Young jumps off the ground and salutes the United States flag at the Descartes landing site during the first Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA-1). He is off the ground about 1.45 seconds which, in the lunar gravity field, means that he launched himself at a velocity of about 1.17 m/s and reached a maximum height of 0.42 m. Although the suit and backpack weigh as much as he does, his total weight is only about 65 pounds (30 kg) and, to get this height, he only had to bend his knees slightly and then push up with his legs. In the background, we can see the UV astronomy camera, the flag, the LM, the Rover with the TV camera watching John, and Stone Mountain. 20/04/1972

PIX4597522 Apollo 16: the landing site - Panorama - Apollo 16 Landing Site panorama Photo - The landing site with the Lem Orion, astronaut John Young collecting a sample of lunar rock at the back of the lunar jeep, the American flag and the experience SWC (Solar Wind Composition Experiment).

This picture, looking eastward, was taken by Astronaut John W. Young, commander. Duke is standing at the rim of Plum crater, which is 40 meters in diameter and 10 meters deep. The parked Lunar Roving Vehicle can be seen in the background
