Apollo 15: Lunar soil sample - Apollo 15: lunar soil - Container filled with lunar soil brought back by the crew of the Apollo 15 mission. A close - up view of a container full of green - colored lunar soil in the Non - Sterile Nitrogen Processing Line (NNPL) in the Lunar Receiving Laboratory (LRL) at the Manned Spacecraft Center (MSC). This sample, broken down into six separate samples after this photo was made, was made up of comprehensive fines from near Spur Crater on the Apennine Front. The numbers assigned to the sample include numbers 15300 through 15305. Astronauts David R. Scott and James B. Irwin took the sample during their second extravehicular activity (EVA) at a ground elapsed time (GET) of 146:05 to 146:06

Apollo 17: astronauts greet the earth - Apollo 17: astronauts saluting people on Earth - Astronauts Gene Cernan, commander of Apollo 17, (left) and H.Schmitt greet their telespectactors during a television broadcast from the Moon on 13 December 1972. Astronauts Eugene A. Cernan (on left) and Harrison H. Schmitt pay their respects and send their best wishes to the members of the International Youth Science Tour, who were visiting the Manned Spacecraft Center, in brief ceremonies near the close of the third Apollo 17 extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Taurus - Littrow landing site. This picture is a reproduction taken from a color television transmission made by the color RCA TV camera mounted on the lunar roving vehicle. Noting that they had collected a very significant rock composed of many fragments, Schmitt said, “” A portion of a rock will be sent to a representative agency or museum in each of the countries represented by the young people in Houston today...”” 13 Dec 1972

A close - up view of a large boulder in a field of boulders near the rim of Cone Crater, which was photographed by the Apollo 14 moon - explorers during the mission's second extravehicular activity (EVA). Astronauts Alan B. Shepard Jr., commander, and Edgar D. Mitchell, lunar module pilot, descended in the Apollo 14 Lunar Module (LM) to explore the lunar surface while astronaut Stuart A. Roosa, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in lunar orbit. 6 Feb. 1971
