November 6 to 21, 1971 ... Apollo 15 goodwill tour ! 1969 onwards, Apollo astronauts returning from a lunar mission made a post-mission World Goodwill Tour to meet foreign cultures and people. By 1971, the Apollo 15 Goodwill tour brought the crewmembers to several European countries, among which Germany, where the astronauts were invited skiing on the slopes of the 2962 meter high ZugSpitze, the highest mountain in the Wetterstein gebirge & Germany. Note David Scott wore a NASA-issued Omega Speedmaster chronograph, with 60 minutes bezel, during meetings & activities with fellow Apollo 15 crewmembers James Irwin and Alfred Worden. See RadialProject.com for a re-issue of this practical bezel ! (Photo: NASA/ZüdDeutsche)
