Summary
The original database describes this as:
Description: Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., Apollo 16 lunar module pilot, stands at a big rock adjacent (south) to the huge ``House Rock`` (barely out of view at right edge). Note shadow at extreme right center where the two Moon-exploring crew members of the mission sampled what they referred to as the ``east-by-west split of House Rock`` or the open space between this rock and ``House Rock``. At their post-mission press conference, the crew men expressed the opinion that this rock was once a part of ``House Rock`` which had broken away. The two sampled the big boulder seen here also. Duke has a sample bag in his hand, and a lunar surface rake leans against the large boulder. Astronaut John W. Young, commander, exposed this view with a color magazine in his 70mm Hasselblad camera. While astronauts Young and Duke descended in the Apollo 16 Lunar Module (LM) “Orion” to explore the Descartes highlands landing site on the Moon, astronaut Thomas K. Mattingly II, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) “Casper” in lunar orbit. Original film magazine was labeled E,filmtype was SO-168 (High Speed Color Exterior),60mm lens with a sun elevation of 46 degrees.
