a16_v_c_o_AKP (AS16-107-17446, with “C")

NASA: Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., lunar module pilot of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission, stands near the Lunar Roving Vehicle at Station no. 4, near Stone Mountain, during the second Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA-2) at the Descartes landing site. Light rays from South Ray crater can be seen at upper left. The gnomon, which is used as a photographic reference to establish local vertical Sun angle, scale, and lunar color, is deployed in the center foreground. Note angularity of rocks in the area.

 

ALSJ: "Locator" to the Rover from John's first Station 4 sample site. Charlie is still at the Rover. Note the spray of dirt propelled toward us by backward motion of Charlie's left heel. Note, also, the large rock at the lower right that John drove over just before stopping the Rover. The Rover chassis clearance is about 14 inches (35 cm). A detail

shows the tool harness (or carrier) that is used to secure the Sample Collection Bag (SCB) to Charlie's Portable Life Support System (PLSS).

 

Oh yeah, for the hoax believers; this is the one WITH the "C".
