Alan Shepard

Alan Shepard was an American astronaut in the 20th century, noted for being the first American to travel into space. He was also commander of the Apollo 14 mission to Luna, which landed at Fra Mauro.

A picture of Shepard was displayed in the research offices at Griffin Observatory, though DTI agent Lucsly mistook the photo background for the Ocean of Storms. This mistake cost him a bet with his partner, Dulmer. (VOY short story: "Almost... But Not Quite")
