An Apollo 15 Panorama
The Apollo 15 mission explored the Moon's mountains, valleys, and maria to better understand its surface. Astronauts David Scott and James Irwin spent nearly three days on the Moon, while Alfred Worden orbited above. This digitally stitched mosaic panorama shows David Scott examining a boulder, a task made easier by the mission's deployment of the first Lunar Roving Vehicle.
