Answer: - It was the first mission to feature the Lunar Roving Vehicle, which allowed the astronauts to explore a larger area of the Moon's surface.

- The mission's commander, David Scott, conducted the first deep-space EVA (extravehicular activity) when he left the spacecraft to retrieve a camera that had become detached from the Lunar Module.

-The Apollo 15 mission collected the largest amount of lunar samples of any Apollo mission, totaling 169.1 pounds (76.7 kg).
