An image of Duke on the lunar surface (with the Lunar Roving Vehicle in the background) during the penultimate Apollo mission. When the 36 year old astronaut descended from the Lunar Module into the Descartes Highlands, he became the tenth and youngest person to walk on the Moon, prompting the LMP to exclaim: "Fantastic! Oh, that first foot on the lunar surface is super, Tony!"
