NASA Fact
Did you know that the Apollo 16 spacecraft were named after stars? The command module was "Caspar," and the lunar module was "Orion." Among the items taken to the moon on this mission were 25 U.S. flags and one state flag for each of the 50 U.S. States. The flags were 4 inches x 6 inches.
