11 of 21. Astronaut John W. Young, commander of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission, leaps from the
lunar surface as he salutes the United States flag at the Descartes landing site during the first
Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA-1). Astronaut Charles M. Duke, Jr., lunar module pilot, took
this picture. The Lunar Module (LM) "Orion" is on the left. The Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) is parked
beside the LM. The object behind Young (in the shade of the LM) is the Far Ultraviolet
Camera/Spectrograph. Stone Mountain dominates the background in this lunar scene.
