Title
APOLLO 14 EVA View
Full Description
Astronaut Edgar D. Mitchell, lunar module pilot, photographed this
sweeping view showing fellow Moon-explorer astronaut Alan B. Shepard
Jr., mission commander, and the Apollo 14 Lunar Module (LM). A small
cluster of rocks and a few prints made by the lunar overshoes of
Mitchell are in the foreground. Mitchell was standing in
the boulder field, located just north by northwest of the LM, when he
took this picture during the second Apollo 14 extravehicular activity
(EVA-2), on February 6, 1971. While astronaut Stuart A. Roosa, command
module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules
(CSM) in lunar orbit, Shepard and Mitchell descended in the LM to
explore the Moon.
