Die ersten Worte von Pete Conrad auf dem Mond waren übrigens „Whoopee! That may have been a small one for Neil, but it's a long one for me!“

Später erzählte er, dass er mit der italienischen Journalistin Oriana Fallaci um 500$ wettete. Er wollte beweisen, dass die NASA die Kommentare der Astronauten nicht vorformuliert hat. Fallaci war überzeugt, dass Neil Armstrongs Worte für ihn geschrieben und nicht seine eigenen waren.

TIL astronaut #PeteConrad had #dyslexia but got into Princeton and had a Navy ROTC scholarship, and though he was 5 ft 6 in, he was captain of the football team, which won their share of games. During #NASA astronaut training he hated the invasiveness and put his stool sample in a gift box and put a ribbon on it.

The #ModularEquipmentTransporter (MET) was a two-wheeled, hand-pulled vehicle that was used as an equipment hauling device on traverses across the lunar surface. Designed after #Apollo12 astronauts #PeteConrad and Alan Bean had difficulties lugging their equipment significant
