The crew of Apollo 12, from left, were Charles Conrad, Richard

Apollo 12 was the sixth manned flight in the U.S. Apollo program and the
second to land on the Moon. It was launched from the Kennedy Space
Center, Florida, four months after Apollo 11. Mission commander Charles
"Pete" Conrad and Lunar Module Pilot Alan L. Bean performed just over
one day and seven hours of lunar surface activity while Command Module
Pilot Richard F. Gordon remained in lunar orbit. The landing site for the
mission was located in the southeastern portion of the Ocean of Storms.
