Information on the Mood Sycamore
 |
Apollo XIV
was launched on January 31, 1971, from Kennedy Space Center and was the
third lunar landing. The entire mission lasted for 9 hours, 1 minute and
57 seconds, carrying three Americans: Captain Alan Shepard, USN; Major
Stuart Roosa, USAF; and Cdr. Edgar Mitchell, USN. Once reaching the Moon,
Shepard and Mitchell went to the surface where they walked 1.7 miles while
Roosa kept the craft in orbit. Stuart "Smoky" Roosa, a former smoke jumper
for the U.S. Forest Service, had always felt a special fondness for the
agency tasked with protecting and preserving the nation's forests. So when
he learned he would fly to the Moon, he determined to "fly something in
honor of the Forest Service." The service suggested seeds collected from
across the country. The seeds included those from an American sycamore.
Roosa's efforts were an unprecedented mix of forestry and astronautics.
The Moon Sycamore still stands today as a living tribute to that effort
and its seeds have produced these authentic direct-offspring trees.
The Sycamore is deciduous with green foliage. Its height is 75 feet and its spread is 40 feet. It likes full sun. |
