TimW Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 This took awhile, but it was an on again/off again type thing. But now it's done. I plan to take more photos with a more suitable backdrop, but for now... here's the EVA. Astronaut (and Mission Commander) John Young is flying the CM; LEM Pilot Charlie Duke is in the hatch (his suit is dirty on purpose--can't get the moon dust out easily). Ken Mattingly (CM Pilot) is retrieving film canisters from the SIM Bay. Starfighter, Rocat, Out2gtcha and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
