Alan Shepard and the equipment cart, Apollo 14

Apollo 14, February 1971. Before the rovers, moonwalkers hauled their gear by hand, and the Modular Equipment Transporter, a two-wheeled cart the crew called the rickshaw, carried the tools, cameras and sample bags. Edgar Mitchell photographed Alan Shepard beside it; the stripe on Shepard's helmet marks the commander. At 47, America's first astronaut was the oldest person to walk on the Moon, and before leaving he famously hit golf balls with a makeshift club.
