This image taken at the start of EVA-2 shows the LM, MESA, Rover. John Young is beyond the Rover collecting a rock sample. On the left side of the image, we see the empty Quad III Payload Pallet compartment where the UV camera was stowed. The thermal blanket that covered the compartment hangs down from the bottom.
