By early April 1970, mission commander James Lovell and his crew, command module pilot Ken Mattingly and lunar module pilot Fred Haise, had trained for almost a year to explore the Moon's Fra Mauro highlands. When the crew was exposed to German measles, NASA doctors feared that Mattingly, the only one of the crew not immune to the illness, might become sick during the mission. Despite Lovell's objections, Mattingly was replaced by his backup, Jack Swigert, just days before launch.

During the whole EVA the crew had trouble judging distance because there were no familiar objects to provide scale, no colour differences to break up the lunar scene, and no haze to help differentiate smaller, relatively nearby craters from larger ones in the distance. To their untrained earthly eyes, only the LM provided scale.

Behind the Rover to the right is Mount Hadley Delta with the huge St George Crater punched into its side.'They [the mountains] looked big, but not as big as they were. Interestingly enough. And they were enormous. They were huge. But I expected them, frankly, to look bigger in the scope of things.

The boulder that marked this stop (first photograph) had a greenish tinge, later found to come from magnesium oxide. Mount Hadley and the Swann range are in the background.At station 7 near Spur Crater, the crew made a longer stop (second photograph), adjusting the Rover antenna so that Mission Control could survey their activities. They collected a sample that later proved to be more than four billion years old, older than any rocks ever found on Earth. It was dubbed the "Genesis Rock."
