Video - Apollo 15

Apollo 15 was the ninth crewed mission in the United States' Apollo program and the fourth to land on the Moon.

 

 

Launched in 1971, the Apollo 15 mission was the first to use a Lunar Roving Vehicle.

 

During the mission, astronaut David Scott showed that Galileo was right: acceleration is the same for all bodies subject to gravity on the Moon, even for a hammer and a feather.
