On November 19, 1969, #Apollo12 astronauts Pete Conrad and Alan Bean landed their Lunar Module Intrepid with pinpoint accuracy on the Moon’s Ocean of Storms, while Richard Gordon remained in lunar orbit aboard the Command Module Yankee Clipper. Conrad and Bean completed two spacewalks on the surface totaling 7 hours and 45 minutes, during a 31.5-hour stay. Conrad’s first word after stepping on the surface was “Whoopee!!” During the spacewalks, they deployed the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiment Package and a solar wind collector, conducted geology surveys collecting 76 pounds of rock, soil, and core samples, and visited the robotic Surveyor 3 spacecraft on the Moon since April 1967, retrieving several parts for examination back on Earth. The second human lunar landing was a success. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/50-years-ago-apollo-12-on-the-moon-whoopee

In NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Lab at Johnson Space Center in Houston, teams are in the early stages of evaluating how astronauts would move around, set up habitats, collect samples and deploy experiments on the Moon in preparation for future missions on the lunar surface, beginning with Artemis III in 2024.
