Loading the video player...

Description
Dave Scott winches a rock box up towards the Lunar Module hatch. Jim Irwin directs it in. Dave comments on how heavy it is. Jim agrees. Dave quips that next time he will just bring it up the ladder! With the job done Dave flicks the tether and bounces towards the camera - checking with Capcom Joe Allen if there's anything else to do on the rover.

Historic Context of Clip
Background to Apollo 15:
Apollo 15 was the ninth manned mission in the Apollo program and the fourth mission to land on the Moon. It was the first of what were termed J missions, long duration stays on the Moon with a greater focus on science than had been possible on previous missions. Dave Scott and Jim Irwin spent three days exploring the Hadley Delta region with the first Lunar Rover, returning 77kg of samples to Earth.
