John is getting into position to break a sample off a partially-buried boulder on the west rim of Plum Crater. Note that John has both his upper visor and his side visors extended. The Rover is on the east rim of Plum. Big Muley www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a16/ap16-S72-41841.jpg and the neighboring anonymous rock are labeled in a detail www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a16/a16-17804det.jpg.

Astronaut John W. Young, commander of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission, stands on the rim of Plum Crater while collecting lunar samples at Station 1 during the first Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA-1) at the Descartes landing site. This scene, looking eastward, was photographed by astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., lunar module pilot. The small boulder in the center foreground was chip sampled by the crew. Plum Crater is 40 meters in diameter and 10 meters deep (1 meter equals 39.37 inches). The Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) is parked on the far rim of the crater. The gnomon, which is used as a photographic reference to establish local vertical Sun angle, scale, and lunar color, is deployed in the center of the picture. Young holds a geological hammer in his right hand.
