Apollo 15 landed in the Hadley-Apennine region in July 1971 — the first mission to carry a lunar roving vehicle and the first to include a trained geologist, James Irwin, as crew. It's also remembered for the "postage stamp scandal": astronauts Dave Scott and Irwin carried 400 unauthorized postal covers to the Moon, later selling them through a German dealer. NASA grounded all three crew members after the mission, ending their astronaut careers.
