Description: "Each of the Apollo Lunar Modules (LM) slated to land on the moon bore a curved plaque around one of its legs. This is a replica of the plaque intended for the Apollo 13 LM, Aquarius. It was to replace the plaque already bolted to the LM, which had the name of astronaut T.K. Mattingly. He was replaced by Jack Swigert days before the mission launched. Since the lunar landing was cancelled, the plaque was never updated."
