PRIME CREW OF EIGHTH MANNED APOLLO MISSION STUART A. ROOSA Apollo 14 astronaut Stuart A. Roosa was one of 19 astronauts selected by NASA in 1966. In 1969, he received experience on Apollo Space Flights as a member of the astronaut support crew for the flight of Apollo 9. As with most other astronauts, Roosa's mili- tary career was spent as a test pilot. His last assignment prior to entering astronaut training was as an experimental test pilot at Edwards Air Force Base in California. Since 1953, Roosa acquired over 4,300 flight hours, of which some 3,900 flight hours were logged in jet aircraft. Roosa was born on August 16, 1933 in Durango, Colorado. He went on to be grad- uated with honors and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the Univer- sity of Colorado. He received his flight training and commission in the Air Force at Williams Air Force Base in Arizona. ALAN B. SHEPARD, jR. Navy Captain Alan B. Shepard joined the national space program in April 1959. On May 5, 1961 he became noted in history as the first American to journey into space when he rode his Freedom 7 spacecraft on a suborbital flight pattern that carried him to an altitude of 116 statute miles. ln May 1969, following the correction of an inner ear disorder, Shepard was restored to full flight status. He was subsequently named to serve as spacecraft commander for the Apollo 14 flight, during which he became the fifth man to walk on the surface of the Moon., ln 1950, Shepard attended the United States Navy Test Pilot School at Patuxent River, Mary- land. After graduation, he participated in flight test work at Moffett Field in California. That same year Shepard attended the Naval War College at Newport, Rhode Island. Following graduation, he was assigned to the staff of the Commander-in-Chief Atlantic Fleet as Aircraft Readiness Officer. Shepard was-born on November 15, 1923 in Derry, New Hampshire. He received his Bachelor of Science Degree from the United States Naval Academy in 1944 and was awarded an Honorary Master of Arts Degree from Dartmouth College in 1962. EDGAR D. MITCHELL Like Roosa, Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Dean Mitchell was one of the 19 astronauts selected by NASA in 1966. He later served as a member of the astronaut support crew for Apollo 9 and was the backup lunar module pilot for Apollo 10. Mitchell came to the Manned Spacecraft Center after graduating first in his class from the Air Force Aerospace Research Pilot School. As the Apollo 14 Lunar Module Pilot, Mitchell became the sixth man to walk on the Moon, stepping down to the lunar surface just minutes after Alan Shepard. ' Together he and Alan Shepard gathered a total of 96 pounds of Moon rocks during their 33-M hour stay on the Moon. There they also con- ducted numerous surface experiments. It was Mitchell's job to control the flight and orbit of the LEM in transit to and from the Moon. Mitchell was born September 17, 1930 in Hereford, Texas. He received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Industrial Management from the Carnegie Institute of Technology in 1952 and earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Aero- nautical Engineering from the U.S. Naval Post- graduate School in 1961. ln 1964, he earned yet another degree, a Doctor of Science Degree in AeronautlcslAstronautics, from the Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology.
