This picture, looking eastward, was taken by astronaut John W. Young, commander. Duke is standing at the rim of Plum Crater. The parked Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) can be seen in the left background.

Mattingly II, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) "Casper" in lunar orbit. — NASA JSC · 1972.
