February 19, 1971 Apollo 14 commander Alan B Shepard in quarantine at the Lunar Receiving Laboratory of the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston. The Apollo 14 Moonwalkers stayed 33.5 hours on the lunar surface and collected 42 kilograms Moonrocks during 19 hours of lunar EVA. As a keen golfer, Alan Shepard wore an alligator logo Lacoste shirt. During the early Apollo-program Deke Slayton asked former golf-pro & Lacoste PR-person Danny Lawler to initiate the astronauts with some golf lessons. This ultimately lead to golf being played on the Moon as Shepard carried an Iron-6 which could be attached to a geologic sample stick in order to make two lunar golf Moonshots.
